SHERMAN TALKS ON TARIFF.
Addresses Big Crowds at MONDAY Meeting of
Hatters in Broadway

Congressman James Schoolcraft Sherman. the
Republican candidate for Vice President addressed
a monday meeting yesterday at No 74s Broadway.
arranged for hatters and merchants interested in
the hat industry. under the auspices OF the Com
mercial Travellers Republican Ledsue.
The Congressman in splendid voice and
spoke at length the tariff. dwelling particularly
Bryan's scheme OF tariff for revenue only
After speaking TO two thousand persons in the
hall he had TO stop his way out and address a
few words to another two Thousand in Broadway.
Il cannot imagine no said, that merchants in
terested IN the hat industry will accept Mr. Bryan
plan OF tariff for revenue only when they appreci-
ate that a plan working to that end would cut the
hatters profits clearly in half and reduce the num-
ber of men employed by one-half the present work
ing number"
Congressman Sherman unqualifedly indorsed the
candidacy of Governor Hughes for a reelection at
the hands Of the merchants of the greater city
and the mention of the Governors name was re-
oeived with prolonged outburst OF applause

CHEER HUGHES 5 MINUTES
White Plains audience Wild at
Mention of Governors Name.

CONGRESSMAN James S. Sherman addressed
two large Republican audiences at White Plains
last night one at St. Johns Hall and an over
flow meeting at Lexington Hall Mayor John-J-
Brown Of White Plains presided at the St
Johns Hall meeting. Mr.. Sherman's speech was
for the large part discussion of national issues
which evoked the usual amount of enthusiasm
but when he referred TO Governor Hughes a
tremendous cheer went up which eclipsed the
snn1ause for all the other candidates
.'I wonder" said Mr.. Sherman. If any one Is
inclined 10 pass up a few more questions to
Charles E. Hughes? There is no quibble to the
answers that he makes TO Mr.. Chanlers ques-
tions" Prolonged applause followed
He has long deserved the reputation of being
q wonderful uuestioner.' continued Mr.. Sherman.
s'and he now reaches up TO the point where he
takes rank among the best witnesses that have
ever heard Of. There is no misunderstanding OF
the answers to brother Chanler's questions in
this mornings papers. They ara clear and direct
and convincing, every one of them
7 want to say this: presume that the time
will never come when all of the citizens IN this
state will agree on every proposition that comes
I'D for legislative action but it is certain that
no man who lives in the Empire State will ever
question the absolute honesty of Charles E
Hughes during the last two years"
For fully five minutes the audience cheered
these words and waved flags and banners.
Then Mr.. Sherman continued: Let me hazard
another prediction: The reception that he will
receive on November will make this reception
you have given him here, hearty and unanimous
as it is, to use a slang expression. look like go
cents"
