Madison Square Garden appearance, /,
tonight a rival of the political meet

an hour. The president reached here
from Buffalo at 900 a. m. cheerel
by a great demonstration there last
night and by reports Of his lieutenants
there that the state will go demo-
cratic. His schedule today called for
three big speeches in which he hoped
to hammer home a telling political
argument with perhaps some added
speeches at over flow meetings.
Democratic managers predicted he
would have the greatest political audi
ence Of the present campaign and
made plans accordingly. Three
thousand extra seats were placed in
Madison Square garden, making the
capacity $4,000.
His plans were to board the presi'
Dental yacht Mayflower and remain
there until 1890. Then he had a
speech before the Wilson Business
Mems league. Tonight he speaks at
Madison Square garden and Cooper
union.
AS part of the night demonstration,
Tammany will turn out thousands OF
its followers in parade.
Trainmen yelled three cheers" as
the president arrived and big throng
took it up and echoed it through the
station. Engineers leaned from their
cabs, shook hands and shouted we're
with you, Mr.. President
From the station, Wilson went di-
rectly to the Mayflower.

The plaintiffs operate twenty-four

they state. But because of lack of
cars, mines are kept idle and in the
last month loading has not averaged
