Bryan and TAFT on Same Night

Syracuse, n. Y. oct. 29.-To this
city fell tonight the distinction Of
entertaining the two men most prom
inent In public interest. To APP
plauding thousands Mr.. Taft and Mr..
Bryan expounded, respectively, re-
publican ana democratic doctrines.
Mr. Taft spoke at t~o meetings and
Mr.. Bryan at -four.
On each occasion, the warning
Standing room only was display
ed long before the hour Of the meet
ing and before the "big men, ar
rived many were turned away. Also
In each instance the presidential
candidates we're received With fat
tering demonstrations and their
speeches frequently interrupted by
spontaneous applause.
The Taft and Bryan specials reach
ed the station at almost the same
moment, shortly after 900 O'Clock
and 70 the credit OF the eitys hospi-
talfty the expressions OF welcome
were petty evenly divided. Both
candidates were met by local leaders
and entertained at dinner. Mr.. liry-
an left his car and shook hands With
many on the platform. Mr.. Taft
improved the opportunity 10 rest a
little while after his car had come 70
a standstill.
Mr.. Taft spoke at the Aihambra
con yention ball and IN Turner hall

speeches at the Wieting opera house,

Woodu en of America, who entertain

the vest late tonight.
Mr.. Taft remained In town to-
night. While here, as an added con-
pliment, both OF the -distinguished

At SteubensVille and at Bellaire he

At the intermediate toRns where

the dying train salute as It thun-
dered along IN the night. Up on the
hillside were displays OF torches and
colored lights IN brilliant homage TO
the speeding guest
In most OF the places along the
Ohio river, IL was not necessary for

their support. Every utterance was
cheered and shouts OF approval met

The important fact 10 be remem-
bered 10 this connection Is that II

includes the creation of a deposition 8
