AMUSING INCIDENT.


funny incident OF the meeting was the attempS
made by an enthusiastic democratic broker TO draw
or Secretary Morrills hearers by improvisng OPP
position gathering in front of Stock Exchange.
This enthusiast in the of Tden and reform
loss person than Colonel Tom Morris, Of the Old
Guard, WnO Wnlie Juug0 EInOLt was SUI speaking
and before Mr.. Morrill, had yet began, planted
himself the steps Of the Stock Exchange
and began TO harangus the crowd on the sde-
walk. He supported in this attempt by
other democratic brokers' The substance OF Colonel
Morris address could be caught amid the general
noise and CONFUSION. but this much could DO heard,
that ne thought II was gross outrage TO allow federal
buildings hike the SubTreasury to be used for partisan
purposes The crowd chsered Justify for Tiden. and
the object OF the democrats seemed to succeed for sew
eral hundred OF Judge Emotts hearers came running
the side show, and there appeared to be
fair prospect OF two meetings in Wall and Broad
strects-one for Hayes anu the other for Tden. The
cheers cries oil the Stock Exchange crowd how
ever did please Mr. Morrill's hearers They sent
Tor the police, who dispersed inc crowd, thus compel
ling Colonel Morris his follow speakers to sshus
up" This ended the side show, ana Mr.. Morrll!a
stray sheep now quietly returned TO the fold in
front OF the Sub-Treasury The whole side scene
only gotten for sport and not 10 detract from
Secretary Morrills powers OF eloquence. 1--WE arc
good democrats, said broker who participated IN
the 'lark land II they cheer for Hayos in front OF
the Sub Treasury don't why can't cheer for
Tlden in front OF the Stock Exchange and he added,
humorousy, "Broad street don't belong 70 Hayes
does tY"
