 About 500 pople had gathered to hear Mir Hisgen's address, but as he was late in reaching the city, former Con- gresham Howard, of Alabama, enter tained the audience until nearly s:30 o'clock.
 Mir. Hlsgen had not proceeded for in his speech when he referred to the dis closures connectig Senator Foraker Of Ohio, with the Standard oil Company and he coupled Senator Bailey of Tex as. with the Senator from Ohio, declar- Ing that the people of Texas knew something of the Standard oil Com pany, which concern had been busted from the State only to be brought back by Senator Bailey.
 Mr. Hisgen was speaking to MT. Batley,s staunchest friends, and they immediately assaileo the speaker with n roar of misses and jeers. Former State Representative Lane. taking ad- vantage of a Hull in the uproar. shout ed to Hisgen: Bailey has got more sense in a minute than you would have in lifetime"
 This caught the crowd. which renew ed It's hisses Congressman Howard
  respectfully, a stranger. whereupon he was admonished not to slander the Texas Senator.
 MT. Hisgen, after quiet had been re- stored, re4oined that we people up North know who is for the Standard oil Company and declared his surprise that the people of the South, who had given the country some of its greatest men in public life, paying personal tribute to former Governor Hogg, Of Texas, would be guilty of the demon- stration which greeted him. He TO- minded his audience that he had paid for the hall and expected to be heard in respectful manner.
 He then told the apple story on Rog- CTS and here the crowd again broke Into misses and MT. Lane yelled at the speaker to quit talking about Joe Bali ley.

Three arose and Hisgen declared that three out of 500 about rpresented the pre- porllon of Texas who are for Senator Bailey. More misses followed this and Hisgen then paid his respects to For aker, who he declared had been repu- dated and then asked why Haskell. the paymaster of the Standard oil Com pany, had not been repudiated by MT. bryan dltoL ms ehoi " Di t1o eAAS ~As torney General of Ohio, and who had called the working people contemDti- hle fantics.
