NEW YORK, Oct. 27.-William J.
Bryan, bareheaded and smiling, stood
on the steps of the city hall at
O'Clock this morning, where he was
introduced to a big crowd of night
workers who gathered there to hear
him speak. When Bryan first ap-
peared the city hall park was light
ed with red fire, but before the cheers
ceased the fire died out and the can
didate spoke in darkness, the few
street lamps affording but little light.
The crowd was composed largely
of employees in newspaper offices on
Park Row, telegraph offices, the gem
eral postoftice and nearby markets.
Chairman Mack, Mrs Mack and
Mrs. Bryan accompanied the candi-
date. Mr.. Bryan said the meeting
was to him one of the most interesting
of the campaign. He said there is
dignity in labor, and that the time
Will come when public sentiment will
put badge of disgrace net upon the
man who With brain or muscle con-
tributes TO their nations welfare, but
upon the man who is willing to spend
in idleness the money that some of
them have made"
He spoke for larger participation
by the people in their own govern
ment
IF, he said, amid great cheering.
i have gained place in your conf
dence, it is simply because have
taken you into my confidence"
Taking up the issues of the cam
paign Mr.. Bryan discussed the public
ity of the campaign contributions. the
tariff, trusts, the panic, ETC., and as
regards the election of senators by
direct vote he declared he felt conf
dent the people CT New York by
adopting that plan could not make
any worse mistakes than their legis-
lature has done"
Speaking of monopolies, he said:
We believe it will never be safe to
have monopolies until God sends us
angels to take charge of them, and
from our experience with those in
charge, we are inclined to believe
they come not from above but from
below"
Mr.. Bryan said he could not under
stand why Mr.. Taft was so bitter
against trial by jury.
