 New Haven. Conn. Oct. 26.--''The only way Mir. Bryan ever influenced the return of prosperity was by being beaten. That is the way he has brought on prosperity every time, and l hope the same method will be con
 This was wm. 1T. Tart's first mes sage to Connecticut today delivered to crowd which greeted his special train at Stamford, on its way to New Haven. The crowd cheered and shout ed assurances that the result desired would follow.
 At South Norwalk. where another stop was made. the crowd was even larger and waited in the rain to get glimpse of the candidate. He frank ly told them he had been informed that he was to be shot right to New Haven as in a pneumatic tube, and this he admitted would have pleased him. as his voice, he feared. was not equal to the ten minute stops being made Such a crowd. he added, was too tempt ing and he must talk.
 The candidate had another oppor- tunity to speak at Bridgeport, which he embraced briefly.
 When the Taft special arrived at New Haven at half past 12. the can didate was met at the station by an escort which consisted of the Young Mems Republican Club, of which MT. Taft became a member when he was here last February, and the Taft Club of Yale.
 Upon leaving the train Mir. Taft and his party were escorted to auto mobiles. The marching clubs. acting as escorts, then fell into line and a short parade was held. ending at the End Regiment armory, where Mir. Taft delivered an address.
 Governor Rollin s. Woodruff in- troduced Judge Taft as the next President of the United States" the allusion being greeted with a mighty cheer.
 M o. Perry, President of the Yale Taft Club. presented the candidate with a memorial in which 1t was said were enrolled nearly the entire stu- dent body. @
 Judge Taft expressed his hearty ap- proval of the action of the student body. He said he loved the roll of their disciplined yell, which "comes like the ocean,"
 The candidate in his address review ed the record of the two parties, say ing that If he did not thoroughly be- lieve Republican success meant the real prosperity of the country, he should feel like withdrawing from the canvass.
 A Democratic tarln was compared with the prosperity said to have fol- lowed its repeal and the establishment of a protective system. The estab- lishment of the gold standard, the reg ulation of the trusts and not their de- struction, were each touched upon. At this point he said Mir. Bryan want ed to take the tariff off just made goods and thus destroy not only the trusts but their independent competitors" The candidate said he was willing Bryan should call it a Republican panic, be cause no Democrattic panic was ever caused by our prosperity as this one was.
 "The panic was not deep seated, and with a restoration of confidence, will be forgotten. This can come about by strict enforcement of the law and going to be no crusade against busi- iness."
 That MT. Bryan if elected might by executive order put the country on 8 silver basis was another reason why the Nebraskan would be detrimental
 MT. Bryan went around the world and his friends said he was coming home safe and sane" He resented that, and proceeded at once to prove its falsity by advocating the Govern ment ownership oflrallroads. He went to Oklahoma and the result was the greatest botanical garden of crank ideas ever seen embodied In the Con- stitution.
 MT. Taft then discussed Mir. Bryan's plan of bank deposit guarantee.
 MT. Taft left at 1:50 on his special train for Port Chester.
