day 10 a trip into Connecticut and tbs
evening TO speech making in Brook
lyn, Taffs first day Of active cam
paigning on his present visit to this
section was prosecuted by him with
Yigor and earnestness.
While the day, despite its call for q
speech Of some length in New aHven
and shorter one at Dorchester on
the return trip to New York. was one
of comparative ease for the Republi,
can candidate, the calls made upon
him in Brooklyn tonight were such
as to keep him actively occupied
every moment of his time.
Had Many engagements.
When the candidate entered that
portion of Greater New York late this
afternoon he found himself fairly
overwhelmed with engagements. Be
fore the night was over he had de-
liyered five speeches, eaten dinner
with hundred prominent Republi
cans as a guest of Republican State
Chairman Woodruff, reviewed the par
ade, which was impressive in size and
inspiring in enthusiasm and then at
tended reception at the Union Lea
que Club.
The most successful and enthusiast
tic were the meetings of the nighr,
particularly those in Clermont Rink
and the Academy of Music, where
Taft made his principal address. The
feature of the trip into Connecticut
was the New Haven meeting, where,
with football enthusiasm, the candi
large portion of the student body OF
Yale, through the presentation of n
handsomely bound memorial contain
ing many pages of signatures.
While the university personnel pro.
jected itself into the meeting its polit-
ical significance was emphasized by
the presence of state leaders of the
party. The parade of the Yale and
New Haven Taft Clubs, headed by
the veterans of the Wide-Awake Club
Of 1860, paraded the streets. while a
tremendous crowd gathered in the big
armory where the speeches were
made.

of business confidence. The speech
was punctuated by the Yale yell,
which ended with Taft, Taft, Taft
At Port Chester a tremendous
crowd had assembled for the purpose
of listening to both Bryan and Tar,
which were each due there tbout the
same time. Taft reached there first
and he was met by cheers and the
waving of many small flags in the
hands of the crowd. which spread H.
self entirely over the large park facing
the station.
Changed His Mind.
Bryan said a year ago The recent
panic was not due TO Roosevelt" said
TAFT in this brief speech. He now
saws il was due TO Roosevelt. That
difference Of opinion brought about in
one year is not exceptional in Bryan's
career"
On the way to New Haven Taft
spoke to crowds at Stamford. South
Norwalk. Bridgeport His very first
utterance Of the day was that Bryan
had aided prosperity in no other way
than to be defeated. Taft was solici-
out that his Nebraska opponent should
keep up his one good record. and 60
down to defeat again
When Taft reached New York al
