DECLARES FOR BRYAN.
Central Federated Union of New York
Goes on Record.

New York. Aug. 31.-After a long de-
bate, the Central Federated Union.
which is the central organization of
the labor unions of this city affiliated
with the American Federation of La
Dor, endorsed a resolution adopted by
the Elevator Constructors and Mill
Wrights' union. This resolution reads
as follows:
"At special meeting of the above
organization held on August 27, 190S
it was resolved that we pledge our
support to the president of the Ameri-
can Federation of Labor and the eX-
ecutive board of the same by our votes
to defeat the Republican party, which
has been reported for the drastic ac-
ton taken against labor's just de-
mands.
We pledge further. our support to
William Jennings Bryan and the Dem
Ocratic party in the coming election
for protecting organized labor by in
serting in their platform a labor rec
ommendation and pledging it's support
to the same"
Several delegates declared they
thought it wrong for the body to take
any part in party politics. A motion
to table the resolutions was lost and a
motion to spread the resolution of the
Elevator Constructors and Mill
Wrights' union on the minutes of the
Central Federated union was carried.

THEY MEET ROOSEVELT.
Olympic Heroes Received by the
President at His Home.

Oyster Bay. n. Y. Aug. S1.-Just as
ideal weather favored the Olympic
heroes today when they paraded up
Sycamore Hill and received the official
welcome home by the president of the
United States as on Saturday when
they acclaimed with the cheers of
thousands in New York city. Each of
the victorious athletes was introduced
to the president by the American COM
missioner James f. Sullivan. The
president grasped their hands in an
enthusiastic handshake and had
word of congratulation to say. The
men plainly showed their pleasure at
the high praise the president bestowed
upon them.
1t was almost II o'clock when the
steamer bringing the men from New
York was sighted. AS the vessel
passed the club house of the Seawan-
aka-Corinthian Yacht club a gun
doomed welcome. 1t was only a
short time afterward that the entire
party was landed and was marching
into a body to Sycamore Hill. The
president was waiting on the veranda
and arose to greet them. The reception
was soon in progress and the introduce
tions of each of the men who contrib
uted towards the athletic glory won for
America at the London Olympiad fol-
lowed in swift succession. The presi-
dents remarks were brief and to the
point. The ceremonies occupied only
short time and then refreshments were
served to the party.

Enormous Crowd Turned Out to See
the American Sailors.

Melbourne, Aug. 31.-The enormous
crowd that turned out to witness the
formal entry of the American sailors
this morning proved too much for the
Princess bridge, which spans theYara
river and forms the main approach to
the city proper. The bridge barriers
were overborne and as a result several
people were slightly injured.
At the exhibition buildings to well
come Admiral Sperry and the officers
and men of the fleet. were Lord North
cote. the governor general Of Australia,
Sir Thomas Gibson COVER
nor of Victoria, the federal and state
ministers, Vice Admiral Sir Richard
Poore, commanding the British Aus
tralian squadron, and representatives
of other Australian states.
In his speech of welcome the prime
minister, Alfred Deakin. said:
1--WE can offer you nothing better in
the way of friendship than a hearty
Australian welcome"
In his reply Admiral Sperrry said
that the reception given the feet in
New Zealand seemed indispensable, in
Sydney it was even better but the cli-
max had been reached in Melbourne.
