 NEW HAVEN, Conn.,, Sept 1.-New England's greeting to William Jen- ninGs Bryan was given cordial expres- slon by an outpouring of men from Connecticut, Massachusetts. Rhode It, lard. Vermont and New Hampshire. They foregathered to the number of about 1O00 in Music hall. There were thousands outside tho hall not bidden e the feast and the march from the railway station was through streets lined with cheering people.
 The visit of MT. Bryan to Connecti- cut must have strongly reminded him Of tho strenuous days he went through during his two presidential campaigns. for he did not have many moments of leisure. delivering four addresses of considerable length, attending two re- captions and was the center of hand shaking bees whenever the opportunity e6ered for his admirers to reach him.
 All thh was crowded into the hours between noon, when he reached this city, and the hour of his retirement as the gllest Of ex-Eenator Archibald Mo Nell at Bridgeport Everywhere he was heartily received, his audiences being at times wildly enthusiastic, es- pecially at the luncheon.
 The features of the day were the luncheon and the conference of New England Democrats. At the former he was welcomed to the city and state with cordiality that for warmth has seldom been extended to . visitor with In the gates of Connecticut. and at the latter he stood before a representative body of New England Democrat and with great earnestness spoke of the problems which the party must face in the coming campaigns.
 MT. Bryan. introduced by MT. Hewitt during deafening applause. held the attention of his big audience for near ly three-quarters of an hour. He spoke in part as follows:
 Today the Democratic party has a policy. The Republican party does not outline its policy as the Democratic party does. The president today Is embarrassed by the fact that you can search the platform upon which he was elected with magnifying glass and you cannot find one single promise of reform on any subject It has made the presidents task difacult. The trou- ble with the president has been that when he tried to do anything he had to whip the Republicans In line with the Democratic platform instead of the Republican platform. And the trouble with the Republican party in this cam paign b that its motto is. Stand pat, defend what you have and don't prom ise anything mors.' They say stand by the president We'll. my friends. the only way you can stand hy the presi- dent if he really wants reform Is to give him . Democratic congress to back him up instead of . Republican congress.
 My friends, believe that private monopoly 10 an indefensible thing. You cannot find . Republican platform that denounces the principle of private mo nopoly. The line Is going to be drawn. We are going to find out who is in fa- vor of exterminating trust and who b not In favor of it. and the line is go- ing to be drawn on that principle. The man who is in favor of regulating 1t might just a we'll take off the mask and declare himself. for you cannot regulate . private monopoly; 1t regu- lates you
 .Thsy tell you that arbitration Is q fanciful thing. tell you that the pres dent of the United States has to his credit . great achievement. He settled the coal strike after . loss of $o9. .0O0.. 000. glory in the fact that he settled it. l think 1t is one of the proudest acts of his oficial capacity: but my frieuds. 1 am not satisfied that we shall have ono strike settled after a ioss of &90. 0.000.000. I want a system that win make 1t unnecessary for q man to starve his wife In order to flx the price by which he can live.
 'sBut no American can travel through cther lands without feeling hls heart glow with pride that his lot was cast inI the United states have never felt Q grateful In my life as have since have aaen tha 01d vorld that q kind Providence cast my lot under the stars and stripes."
 Many of the party leaders afterward oppressed their opinion that the confer sncs was to them q very delightful oc- easiou. Mfr. Bryan said In the course of hIs address that New England never had been . good breeding place for Democracy. Je6erson had never con sidsrsd it so. neither did Jackson"
