HARTFORD, CONN, November 3,-This
city became wildly enthusiastic over Judge
Parker at a monster rally held IN the
Opera House tonight. Democrats from
all parts Of the Statehcame here and the
accommoda tions for the audience were
entirely Inadequate. The crowd proved TO
/ be the most demons ira tive OF any he had
faced during the day. The ovation lasted
eighteen minutes, mostiio Of the audience
being on their8feet shouting wildly, while
hundreds OF them waved flags.
| -Four enthusiastic audiences greeted
Judge Parker to-day on his only visit to
tho State in the campaign and In sew
| eral other places through which his spe-
| cial train passed he was given rousng
| impromptu welcome. The principal speech
| OF the trip was made In this city tonight.
The other receptions were held In Bridge
| port, New Haven and Meriden, where an
| address was made from the rear end OF
| the train. This speech dwelt with the
| question Of trusts, and the candidate at
| tempted to rcfutc the charge that tho
Standard OH Company is the financial
sponsor OF the Democratic party, and
charged that the company's interest are
with tho Republican party.
The meeting In this city was one OF the
greatest Of the campaign in this State.
! Judge Parker was given a warm welcome
4 lfrom the moment Ire reached tho city.
| All entrances were blocked by the time
I the candidate was driven to the Opera
House, and admittance was obtained with
/ the greatest difficulty. Judge Parker held
1 informal receptions after each OF his
meetings, and shook hands during the day
and evening with several thousand people
Going to New York.
! Ilo remained overnight In Hartford,
| and will start on his return trip to New
York Tomorrow morning. Judge Parker,
| in his speech, referred to the shipping
question as follows: 4
Z 1.-THE time has again come when we
need ships OF our own, but they should be
| built, not at the cost OF tho government,
4 not from taxes drawn from all the peo-
(; ple, but us a result of the enterprise
| OF our people. They should be designed
i and constructed by the ingenuity OF oul
engineers, operated by our seamen ano
owned4by our people. Every landing plact

ought to be q nursery, however rude, fol

bottoms and that almost Infinite demand
by our people for the products OF othel
