Binghamton. N Y, Oct. 24-Wu- liam J. BryRn's speech here today to a crowd. which numbered many railroad and other classes of workingmen, was devoted principally to the labor ques- tion. and 1t was more specific in its reply 10 the Presidents recepg letter regarding labor than any of his previ- ous utterances on that subject.
 He said:
 "The President declares that he is willing to do everything for labor ex- cept to do what is wrong. He virtu- nuslY asserts that he will not do what Is wrong. for anybody. We must all applaud this resolute determination on the part of the President to adhere 10 the right, but if he knew his fel feel SO lonesome on this subject. He is not the only one in the country who desires to do right.
 There are really a great many good people In this country who are just as anxious to do right as the President but many of them differ from him as to what is right. and they are not will ing to admit that they are doing wrong merely because they differ from him
 "The President seems to think ii would be wrong to establish a depa rt. ment of labor with a secretary of labor fin the cabinet. I beg to differ from the President or this too. and believe a majority of the American voters diff fer from him.

Nashville, Tenn, Oct. 24.-T am thoroughly satisfied that the guilty will be brought to justice" was one of the first expressions of Governor Patterson, when he arrived in Nash vile tonight from Union City, where he has been coping with the night riders situation in the vicinity border ing Reelfoot Lake.
 "The full power of my offlce," he continued. twill be exhausted to this end. Arrests of suspected persons are being made by the military and the posses I have organized. who are in full control of the Lake region where the murder of Captain Rankin was committed"
 T cannot state for publication" an- swered the governor when asked to outline his future plans, "the instruc- tions which have been given. or the plans which have been formed to vim dicate the law and bring the perpet- rators of this assassination to justice, but all has been done that I could do and every effort will continue to be made The troops under Colonel Ta- tom and the posses are working in harmony"

At Port JervlS.

Port Jervis. N. Y.,-To a great and enthusiastic crowf. W. J. Bryan today spoke for half an hour from the porch of the Fowler House. declaring that each day the confidence of the Demo- orats increased as the fears of the Re- pGblieans increased. He said to his audience if they had a reason for be- ing enthusiastic in 1S96, they had many reasons now. He said the campaign of 1896 was the first great protest against the domination of the government by predatory wealth.
 'The contest" he said, "hns now been waged for twelve years and that which seemed almost hopeless when we began. seems almost certain now, for as we approach election day, the confidence of Democrats increase, as the fears of the Republicans in- crease"
 Again he spoke of the sending out by the President of cabinet officers to make political speeches to help save the day but he declared that 1t was because of that cabinet that they had been doubtful.
 If" he said, they had a cabinet that would have joined heartily in the reforms that are necessary, there might not today be so great need for Democratic victory but the Republi- can party's record is the milestone around its neck"

FAREWELL OF THE NATION
President Roosevelt sends a Message to the 1III1adO Thanking Him For the Hospitality Ex-
 tended to the Fleet

yokohama, Oct. 25.-The American battleship fleet sailed out of Yokohama harbor promptly at o'clock this morn ing and the send off that was accorded l the Americans as the ships put to sea. was such a celebration as has never before been heard of or seen in Japan.
 At earliest day light this morning. the last launches from the fleet and small harbor craft were speeding back and forth between ships and shore. carryng the belated men of the fleet to their respective vessels. while oth- CT boats of the harbor. brilliant with l color and laden with crowds, gathered to bid the fleet God speed. steamed slowly about the anchored ships. Every available launch in the harbor was pressed into the service of car ryinR parties of citizens, anxious to say farewell, out to the ships. Larger steamers loaded with excursionists. steamed about. ready to follow the fleet out to deep water.
 bearing Vice Minister of Foreign Af fairs Macy and other Japanese officials steamed alongside the Connecticut The Japanese dignataries were receiv- ed with a salute of the guns of the Connecticut and the usual marine turned out for them when they reached the deck. Minister Macy, was the bearer of the farewell of the nation to Admiral Speery, who was on deck early and received the leave taking after proper ceremonies.
 These farewells, said Rear Admiral Kaito. who was with the party that boarded the American flagship, was taken back to his own flagshp, Miika- sa, and immediately thereafter, the Connecticut weighed anchor and head ing the long line of American ships in single rank formation, steamed down the harbor and out past the breakwa- ter as the guns of the Japanese fleet thundered the last farewell of the na- tion.
 The press ot Tokio and Yokohama this morning deVotes great space to editorial comment of the farewell 10 the Atlantic fleet, the general tone of the various newspapers being the ex- Dression of profound appreciation Of the thoughtfulness displayed by the American government in accepting Ja- pans invitation and sending the fleet to Japanese waters as 1t made It's way around the world. The papers are nIso united in rejoicing over the op- portunity thus afforded Japan to thus demonstrate the traditional friendship of tho, nation towards the United olAlGS, VI lIlNll' u AS hNA tASA SOAi44iShNNNf will doubtless serve tn completely dis perse the cloud of misunderstanding which has been lowering over the re- Iations between the two countries for some time past.
 The editorials go on to express the gladness of the Japanese that the peaceful motives of Japan have been universally and indisputably manifest ed by the visit Of Admiral Sperry and his men, as all Japan's hospitality, however generously offered. would have been unavailing had not the na- tion's guests been able to do the spirit of Japan full justice as was the case.
