into the streets. The ovation ac-

was brilliant climax to. a day in
which a united party paid Mr.. BRYAN

/ Mr.. Bryan spoke for over an hour
on Republican Tendencies" at Car

On his arrival in New York Friday.
MT. Bryan spoke at MONDAY meet
ing and during the afternoon held
constant leyees at his hotel where
Democratic leaders in the city and
State called upon him.
Previous to the Carnegie Hall
meeting Mr.. Bryan was entertained
at dinner at the home of hilbert e.
Cary. On approaching Carnegie Hall
Ia little later Mr.. Bryan was given an
ovation by a crowd of 10000 or
more persons who could not get in
the hall.
The candidate was taken to a flag
draped cart and from it be made
Ia brief speech. He IVES cheered re-
peatedly, especially when a man in
the crowd tried to argue with him
and Bryan made squelching reply.
II can speak to you only briefly,
as have a long speech to make .
inside" said Mr.. Bryan. '.Let me
call your attention to the marked
difference between the Republican
platform and ours The Republican
platform is different especially in not
outlining necessary legislation. Our
platform tells the public what we
think Of what ought to be done. We
take the people into our confidence
and thus we show not only our faith
in the merits of our policies but also
in the intelligence Of the voters.
Now there are four propositions
as TO labor fcs which we stand
First, we believe that there should
be department Of labor with cab
OF the trust law.
Second. We believe that labor
should be taken out Of the operation
Of he rus law.
Third, we believe that an iRdus-
trial dispute should not be sufficient
cause for the issuance of an injunc-
ton
Fourth. we believe in trials by
jury in case of indirect contempt.
A man who claimed to be union
IRON worker here attracted the atten-
.ion of Mr.. Bryan and asked him if
1t were true that he had used the
expression that workmen were lot
If beggars when he was in congress:
Il speak as representative Of or
ganized labor" the man added.
| NO, you do not shouted sar.
Bryan. My record is well enough
known, so that no representative OF
organized labor would have to ask
me such question.
Did or did you not use that ex-
pression?" insisted the man.
/ Bryan answered: II shall not un-
dertake now or at any other time to
;answer any and every statement thai
may be made by those Who are tl':,-
ing to help the Republican party
until they get an endorsement from
the Republican party or its repre-
sentatiTes."
Mr.. Bryan then left the cart and
| went into Carnegie Hall.
| When Secretary Smith OF Tam
many Hall called the mass meeting
| 70 order every seat was taken aad
every inch Of space was filed. 1t
was an enthusiastic audience and
|vhen Chairman Herman Ridder was
introduced the crowd applauded for
tseyera1 minutes. Mr.. Ridder dwelt
on tariff reform.
| While Congressman sulzer was
speaking Nr. Bryan and his party
istepped from an entrance upon the
Istage. 1t was the Bryan demonstra-
,tion OF eight and twelve years ago
THAT followed. Men leaped to their
chairs and yelled and shouted while
the band played lively tunes. Chair
man Riders voice was lost as he
briefly introduced the Democratic
candidate.
When quiet was restored, after q
0-minute outburst ~ enthusiasm
Mr. BRYAN began his speech.
