Anil PopnornU Amwaalted a Reporter, Who Wan In vetlscn tln. Associated Press Dispatch. CHICAGO. Oct. 27. While the Democratic parade in honor of the arrival of Mr. Bryan in Chicago was passing the ccrncr of Michigan av?nue and Monroe street, this afternoon, several eggs were thrown at it by young students in the Metropolitan Business College. None of the eggs came near Mr, Bryan or hia wife, and neither of them knew of the episode until the parade was over. All ports of dories were current about the affair, one of them being that Mrs. Bryan was struck with an egg, another that her carriage was hit. Neither of thewe stories was true, however. The first egg thrown at the parade came from a boy standing on the sidewalk in front of tho Powers Build'ng, in which the Metropolitan Business College is situated. The egg was to all appearances thrown at the parade generally, and at no particular Individual, as it was not hurled with any violence. A po'i?:?man who witnessed the act made a rush for the youngster, who darted up the stair and Into the building. A second officer joined the first, and as the two ran for the doorway st-yeral more eggs were thrwn from the windows of the business colleere, whi;h occupies the fifth Iloor of the building. The Cook County Marching Club, which was escorting Mr. Bryan, received tha bombardment, . and several Prince Albert cor.ts and black tiles were spattered with yellow. One or two eggs struck the sidewalk and the crowd was decorated accordingly. Later in the afternoon a delegation from the Cook County Democracy descended upon the college with evtry symptom of hostility, and demanded, tl-at the students who had done the throwing be turned over to it. They held possession of the college tor a time and finally left without learning who had done the throwing. The police had no better success, and Mr. Powers, tjs owner of the building, who is also the president of the college, said that he did not know who had thrown the eggs, although he admitted that they came from students in his institution. He was much distressed by the occurrence, and declared If- he knew who had done the work, he would have no hesitarcy In turning them over to the police. Later in the day a reporter for a morning Republican paper, while looking up the facts in the case, was severely beaten by a party of men who had taken part In the parade. "I would be very glad to hear that the police have arrested those who insulted Mr. Bryan this afternoon." said Chairman Mark Hanna, of the national Republican committee, to-night. "Whatever might have been their motive, the act was a most disgraceful one, and deserves the condemnation of every right-minded person. I hope the authorities will investigate the , case ful'y and properly punish the guilty ones. The Republican management has no sympathy with people wlio engage In business of this kird." Mr. Powers late to-night offered a re,ward of $500 for the apprehension of the person or persons who threw the eggs. Chief of Police Badenoch has put a dozen detectives on the ease, and says he will exhaust every effort to find the eggthrowers. Mr. Bryan arrived In Chicago at 3:30 p. m. ovf-r the Alton road, and was met at the depot by a larore and enthusiastic crowd of his admirers. The crush to see him was no Kreat in the narrow space of the first floor of the Alton depot that the police had a difficult task to prevent people- from being injured. The Cook County Democratic Marching Club and several free silver clubs, with a large number of bands, were waiting for him on Canal street, and as soon as he appeared the march was taken up for Battery D, on Michigan avenue. A short parade through the downtown streets, preceded the arrival at the battery. - Entering the city from Brighton Park, where Mrs. Bryan appeared on the platform and distributed flowers, there were crowds at every street crossing until the Union Depot was reached. While the crowds were dispersing after the Bryan demonstration at the depot, the sidewalk in front of No. 21 Canal street gava way and nearly one hundred people were precipitated Into the basement, a distance of twelve feet. Many received slight injuries. Those most seriously hurt were Patrick Houston, Michael Finan. Albert Powers and William Nolan, all middle-aged men. None of them was fatally injured, but all will be confined, to their beds for some time to come. Mr. Bryan began his speech making to.Xilg'.t at Battery D. where he said, in part: "Your papers have called me a. demagogue. If there Is one thing I am not It Is a demagogue. A demagogue Is defined as a man who advocates a thing which he does not believe in. or' (Cries of "That's McKinleyS") Some of the audience shouted . for Bryan to get up higher, as they could not see him. Finally he mounted a chair on the platform. "Ain't he a peach?" one enthusiastic, leather-lunged admirer de-n-anded. Mr. Bryan proceeded, as follows: "Now, let mo finish that sentence. A demagogue Is a man who advocates a thing which he does not believe. In order to conciliate those who differ from him, A demagogue is anan who Is willing to advocate anything, whether he believes it or not, which would be advantageous to him and gain him popularity. (Cries of 'That's Ingersoll!') Now, my friends, I have never advocated during my public life a thing that I did not myself believe. I have proven my willingness to go down In defeat by advocating things when I was in a minority, and I have always been willing to accept defeat when I went down with my convictions, rather than rise by demaguguism. I say that here because in this city the papers are against us, and we must seek to reach the people directly because we have not the advantages that our opponents have of reaching them through the daily press. I shall be in this city for a few days, and shall see as many of your . people as It is possible to see in that time "I am going to talk to the neonle themselves, and not go to the employers and bargain for the delivery of the, votes of the reoP,le' v IhfiVO been taught, to believe that the ballot, was given to the individual for his own use. and that the citizen who has the right to vote also has the ability to determine how he ought to vote, and therefore, in (his campaign. I want to address my arguments to the individual voter, and not to the head of a firm or the president of a rmlroid or the boss of a corporation " The first one of the -half dozen of Mr. Bryan s speeches following the initial ad?.re.f58 5 Battery D was delivered at Arcade Hall, Sixty-fifth street and Wentworth avelnJ.ne extreme southern portion of the SWtV fiTth iVT t boulevard Hall. s l'ifty-fifth and Halsted streets. The third t f,.at. PolIs'? S,001 Hal1- Thirty-third and Laurel streets. From there he went to the t tent. Twenty-ninth and Halsted streets Vfx.to, Oermanla Hall, Thirty-fourth and Halsted and he closed his day's work by epeakintf at-Tattershall's. y The audience at Tatterstalls was verv large. He was presented with two floral , tributes, one from the Fourteenth ward Hebrew Democratic Club bearing the inscription in flowers. "No crown of thorns no cross of gold." and the others from the Journeymen Horseshoers' Association in the shape of a huge horseshoe with the inseriotion: . "Oood luck." Preceding Mr. Bryan's address Vice President Stevenson made a . quite lengthy address. Mr. Bryan's address dealt chiefly with what he termed the grotesqueness and absurditv of the gigantic kovernment bond operation following the crusade of the gold-standard advocates against the Sherman law, when he said, America furnished millions of gold to pay for the bonds that she sold to get gold.

Case of Unusual Fiendlshness In South Carolina. . AIKEN, S. a, Oct. 27. On Dec. 2. 1895, a party of six white men Messrs. Ackerman, Kearse, Jenney, Brant, Stanley and Hierse took Isom Kearse, his wife, Rosa Kearse, and his mother, Hanna Walker, three negroes, from their homes in Colleton county at night and dragged them several miles behind a buggy to Broxton bridge, in a lonely swamp. It was a bitterly cold night, but the negroes were made to strip and were then severely beaten with buggy traces for the alleged crime of stealing a Bible from a church. Kearse and his mother were killed by the flogging and the exposure, while his wife managed to drag herself home more dead than alive. The "lynchers" were tried in Waterboro, the county seat, last February for the murder of Hanna Walker, and to the surprise of the entire State were acquitted. Solicitor Bellinger has done his best to secure a conviction, and mortally offended the numerous and influential friends of the defendant, who tried hard and unsuccessfully to prevent his re-election this summer.

The medical testimony showed the flogging to have been simply unmerciful, so severe as to pulpify the muscles of the back and arms of the victims. The entire State is watching this trial with the greatest interest. WINSTON WON AGAIN. The Western Shooter Too Strong for the Eastern Cracks. NEW YORK, Oct. 27. J. L.

The full significance of Senefelder's great discovery, just a hundred years ago, was not so much that a calcareous stone may be bitten by a weak solution of acid, so that the raised portion when greased (the surrounding parts being wetted) may print in a press like a wood cut though with a scraping, not a direct, downward pressure; it consisted in the : demonstration, in the first place, that prints from its surface may be reduplicated in vast numbers without visible deterioration, and in the second, and still more important, that each such print is practically an original. Nay. more than this, as M. H. P. Dillon reminds me in a panegyric on his favorite art. the greatest merit of this method of preserving and indefinitely multiplying a drawing lies in the escape of the artist from the traduttore traditore from misrepresentations by engraver or by camera. Indeed, when the artist has made his design upon the stone itself each impression from it Is as much the "original" fs each and every photographic print taken from a negative is an original, and not a copy of any other thing. Even when the artist has drawn upon transfer paper instead of on the stone (a proceeding for convenience sake which, in the opinion of some purists, is he'd in a measure to invalidate th name of "lithorrnnhy" as applied to It. though not thereby rfletintr In any dfe-ree on the beauty of the work itself), the impressions taVen still orin-inals. inasmuch rs he' actual wo-k. the artist's own lirfs and dts. have in due course been transferred bodily hv mechanical nrpssnre to the surface of the stone; R"d thi. nftrr it has ben inkd and printed from, renders each nroof bn taken of ponal rtvcel'cnco. And the point of it all is th': Thnt until th" ptone inked and a print taken the art'st's work is not complete; so tht every print does really become a genuine orieinal. nnineN Embarrassment.

It Is understood to be the intention of Secretary Herbert to have the North Atlantic squadron, undertake a more extensive series of maneuvers and drills than have yet been attempted as soon as the ships can be made ready. The experience gained in the evolutions of the past summer and this fall have resulted so satisfactorily in the education of officers and men in the handling in combination, of war ships that the department feels justified in putting them to still greater tasks, and unless there is a change in the programme and it should be abandoned from a fear of a misunderstanding of the purpose, which is in no sense war-llkt, the coming winter will see the assemblage of the largest and most formidable squadron which has been under one command In American waters since the war. The word has gone out to push steadily the work of completing all of the ships which can be made ready within a reasonable time, and as many vessels will be put in commission as, can be manned. The North Atlantic squadron will be reinforced by the addition of such powerful craft as the monitor Puritan and the armored cruiser Brooklyn. It was" intended to put the Newark out of commission, but orders have gone out to have her repaired at Norfolk within thirty days without laying up the ship, which will then be attached to the squadron: An Exaggerated Story. WASHINGTON, Oct. 27. A statement telegraphed from San Francisco to-day to the effect that the United States subtreasury there had just pulled through a run which threatened to annihilate Its gold holdings, $3,000,000 having been drawn out in exchange for greenbacks, is stated by the treasury officials to be greatly exaggerated. During the month of August and a part of September the withdrawals reported from the subtreasury at San Francisco were abnormally heavy, but at no time were the officials apprehensive of any serious results. Long before the withdrawals assumed any considerable proportions instructions had been given to tjae Chicago subtreasury officials to be ready to ship to San Francisco such quantities of gold as might be required, and later on one or more shipments were made. For the most part, however, the assistant treasurer at San Francisco managed the matter with Mttle assistance from Washington, and, as one official stated to-day, ''the flurry lasted but a short time and alarmed no one. There have been no unnsual withdrawals at San Francisco for nearly a month." Patents Granted Indlanlans. Special to th Indianapolis Journal. WASHINGTON, Oct. 27.

Fitzhugh Lee, consul-general at Havana, has given up his proposed visit to his home in Virginia, which he had expected to make within the next few days. The determination to remain at his post Is understood to be due to the reports current . in the United States that he was dissatisfied with his instructions and desired to be relieved. As his return migrht give seeming approval to the reports, the consul-general determined to give up the vacation he had planned, although he is much in need of a change of scene, owing to the hardships of the Havana climate during the last six months.

PHASES OF "CITY HOUSEIvEEPIG.'
Presidents of Three Women's Health Leagues Speak of Their Work. Boston Transcript. An excellent idea of how women are interesting themselves in "city housekeeping" was given before the Home Congress of the Food Fair this morning. Three presidents of Women's Health Protective associations spoke for those organizations and gave entertaining accounts of what has been accomplished in arousing public sentiment in favor of better sanitary conditions. Mrs. James Scrimgeour, a sister of Dr. Caroline Hastings, of Boston, was first presented byMrs. Richardson. She told, in a most amusiner manner, of the way in which the work was organized in Brooklyn, of the ridicule that followed, and the gratification that comes to its members when they reflect that they now have a larger constituency than any other society in that city, and covering a wider field of usefulness. "If Brooklyn authorities," said the speaker, "had looked ahead a little when laying out the city we housekeepers would not be suffering from our present inconveniences notably the lack of back alleys. Because of this we have been obliged to gaze into the streets upon solid rows of ash barrels filled with the accumulations of a week a disgrace to modern civilization." "We never shall have good government," Mrs. Scrimgeour went on to say, "until the ash barrel is redeemed, for its condition shows the consideration of the owner for the community. We are criticised in our attempts to have ordinances on this matter by those who f.ay we have things enough in our own homes to look after without meddling with what the police and the city authorities ought to. do. This is true, but if those who are supposed to do it will not, then women must. A better state of things will not Qomo about, however, until the masses learn that liberty is not licensii." The speaker told of the attempt to improve the vacant city lots for the benefit of children; of the prohibitory signs regarding uncleanliness of elevated railway stairs, curs and ferry boats; of the stabling of trucks and wagons in the streets and of the disposal of garbage. Mrs. Ralph Trautman, of New York, president of the parent society, which was founded in 1874, said that at that time eleven women residing on Beekman Hill, overlooking the East river, a most desirable section, were so outraged by the foul odors that polluted the air that they determined to investigate the cause. Accordingly they made a tour of the abbatoir district. It was a revelation, and while they returned to their homes ill from the inspection, they decided that some steps must be taken at once to Improve matters. Since that time we have neglected nothing that tends toward the protection of public health. "We are now hoping," said Mrs. Trautman, "to effect, through the Health Board, a reform try which the exposure of green vegetables and fruits before the small grocery store will be prohibited." Mrs. J. W. Scribner, of Philadelphia, next described the Woman's Health Protective Association, of which she is president, which was founded in 1893 as a committee of the New Century Club, receiving its first inspiration from Mrs. Trautman. The country at that time, she said, had been threatened with cholera, and the women of Philadelphia became personally concerned in the dire results of the neglect of sanitary laws. The speaker traced this modern reform movement from 1838. and the uprooting of the general belief that disease is due to special Providence or the vengeance of an offended Deity. The organization she represents has a committee to consider the water supply, and a great improvement has been made in the drinking water of the Schuylkill and the Delaware bv sand filtration. This work was emphasized as showing how women banded together can lead the thought of their community in realizing public dangers to health and safety, and can materially assist in rousing public sentiment to effectually demand much-needed reforms. The street-cleaning committee receives complaints from every part of the city, verifies and forwards them each week to the Department of Public Work. The collection of garbage and ashes and. "the paper nuisance" are also carefully considered. A children's league has been established and its outlook is hopeful. At the instance of the committee a memorial was sent to the city's car companies asking for fenders, that overcrowding bo prevented, that motormen and conductors be not allowed to work more than ten or twelve hours a day. instead of sixteen, as at present, that they be protected from the weather by vestibules, that the cars be heated, and lastly that the rules regarding expectoration be enforced. The association has carried its interest to the sweatshops and the schools, some of which were in bad sanitary condition. WHEAT IX THE WORLD MARKET. The Price in One Country Fixed by the Supply- in Another. J. Laurence Laughlin, in November Atlantic. The simple fact that we produce more wheat than we consume, and that consequently the price of the whole crop is determined, not by the markets within this country, but by the world markets, are sufficient to put wheat, as regards its price, in a different class from those articles whose markets are local. It differs very radically, for example, from corn. While we export 36.88 per cent, of our wheat crop we export only 3.72 per cent, of our corn crop, which in 1892 was 1.628,464,000 bushels. Whether he knows It or not. whether he likes it or not, every man who chooses as his occupation In life the growing of wheat must be affected by everything which Influences the production and price of that article throughout tho entire world. And it need not be said that many wheat-growing farmers make little or no allowance for events beyond their limited range of local information. A gcod crop in Europe means a lessened demand for American wheat; a large European crop, accompanied by a very large harvest at home, is sure to depress the price abnormally; and if. in addition to these two uniting causes, competingcountries in Asia. South America. Africa and Australia send large quantities of the same grain to Europe the price may fall further. A given demand may be mors than met by an exceptional supply. It must then be remembered too that, as regards an article of food like wheat, after a person has taken his usual consumption his demand does not rise with a falling price, but. after a saturation point of desire is reached. It practically ceases altogether. This accounts for the extreme fall in price produced by a supply only slightly in excess of the ordinary demand. Does the farmer of our Western States study to adapt his supply to the known demand, as the manufacturer does? Probably not. He plants because he has wheat land, and leaves the rest to vll mller,U-S p,ar .of forces outside his ken. Yet it certain, nevertheless, that the price of his grain is determined by events in Australia. Argentina. P:Sypt. India and Russia, or by excessive rains in England. France or Germany. To know the economic nature of the farmer's occupation is necessarv to an understanding of his existing situation, and one can clearly see how variM are the world influences Wh Lmay Ct effrtS m BTOVlDg PLAUSIBLE THEORY. Bryan Playing to the Galleries for Future Easiness. , Washington Special. A story is going the rounds that Mr. Bryan is merely advertising, and that he has not during the last four weeks of the campaign had the slightest expectation of success. This story does not appeal to the intelligent judgment of the average man. but it is nevertheless Interesting and somewhat plausible in its details. As outlined by an ardent admirer of Mr. Bryan and one who at the same time is opposed to him politically, the theory is described as follows : "Mr Bryan has nothing to lose by defeat His national reputation at the beginnins of the campaign was of the flimsiest sort He was known just as Jerry Simpson and Champ Clark and Howard, of Alabama and a lot of other fellows who have done" the freak act for free silver, but he had no standing whatever anywhere of a permanent sort. He made up his mind at the very beginning that, win or lose, his play was to give himself as thorough advertising as could possibly be done, and he resolved upon the whirlwind play that he has since made. His vulcanized throat and lungs have enabled hfm to establish a record of physical endurance that Is without parallel and he will go into history as the most remarkable specimen of his kind. 'His flow of talk has been like the flood of divine love, without limit or bounds. It is unceasing and with a volume that cannot be defined by any terms of limitation. "The result will be that he will leave th campaign, although defeated, the ber.t aciverti.ied man in America. Mis living is assured from this time on; and he will never again have to apply in vain for a position as press agent for any theatrical combination -r work at the desk in any newspaper office at $35 a week. All this talk about his being on tho verge of a mental collapse and that defeat would throw him into a padden cell is rot. He Is making a grandstand play, and his position, even in the event
of a humiliating defeat, will be incomparably better after the third of November than it was before his nomination at Chicago. He had no chance to lose, and whatever may happen he will be heavily ahead as a result of his four months' experience as the greatest living 'scorcher. " HOW A PRESIDENT IS MADE.
Routine of Proceedings After the Ballots Are Cast. Kansas City Journal. Despite our boasted education as a people, and in curious contrast to the tremendous interest we take In elections, it is doubtful If one voter out of ten can accurately describe the process by which a President and Vice President are made. Commencing with the choice of electors on the first Tuesday after the first Monday in November of presidential years, trie next step is the meeting of these electors at their several State capitals on the second Monday in January following the election. An act of Congress requires the electors of all the States to meet on th sam day. At this meeting each elector casts his ballot for President and Vice President. He is at perfect liberty to vote for whomsoever he chooses, but In testimony to the high sense of honor which pervades the American people it may be said tnat since the formation of the government no elector has failed to vote for the candidate for whom he was elected. After the votes have been cast they are sealpd up and entrusted to one of the electors, who is designated by his fellows for the purpose, and by him are conveyed to Washington and delivered over. These sealed ballots are directed to the President of the Senate, who opens them In presence of the House ana Senate on the second Wednesday of the following February, this joint session being required by law. If it is found that any candidate for President has received a majority of the entire electoral vote ho la formally declared elected, and the same is true of the Vice President; but If no on has received a majority for either of these offices the joint session dissolves and the House proceeds to elect aPresident and the Senate a Vice President: In voting for President the House Is restricted to the three men who received the highest votes in the Electoral College. In the House each State is entitled to one vote. How this vote shall be cast Is determined by. a majority of the Congressmen from each State. It makes no difference how the State may have voted upon electors, a majority of the Congressmen may determine how it shall vote when the presidential election is thrown into the House. To elect, a majority of the entire number of States is required. The same process Is had in the Senate, with the exception that each Senator has a vote and only the two highest voted for In the Electoral College may be selected from. In case the House should get into a deadlock which lasted beyond the 4th of the following March, the Vice President chosen by the Senate would assume the presidential chair on that date, thus doing away with the rule so prevalent in political affairs that an officer holds until his successor is eleoted and qualified. The old President must step out, whatever may be tho fate of his presumed successor. The Constitution did not seem to provide the means of presidential succession which might be demanded under certain emergencies, and so the Forty-ninth Congress passed a bill fixing this succession as follows, after reciting the death, resignation or disability of both the President and Vice President: Secretary of State, Secretary of the Treasury, Secretary of War, Attorneygeneral, Postmaster-general, Secretary of the Navy and Secretary of the Interior. It is provided, however, that before either of these may assume the presidency he must first have been recognized by the Senate as a Cabinet officer and possess in himself the constitutional requirement of a. President. . ' . The dates on which the three great steps are taken in making a President this time are as follows: Election, Nov. 3; electors meet Jan. 11; Congress counts vote Feb. 10. AMUSEMENTS. English's Joseph Jefferson. In addition to a refreshing double bill at Enjrlish's laet night Joseph Jefferson gave- th larg and greatly pleased audience a speech. In the language of society It was one of the most brilliant audiences which has faced Mr. Jefferson In this city In several years. Before the doors were opened there was a crowd waiting to rush for the gallery and when the curtain went up only a few 6eats in the house remained untaken. After a remarkably even performance of "Cricket on the Hearth," In which every member in the cast seemed to reflect tfce pleaeing comedy of the distinguished comedian, the house called the great American protagonist before the curtain and he made a brief talk. Mr. Jefferson told the middle-aged reople that he had played to their parents in this city twenty-five years or more ago, and to the blushing maidens he said their grandparents, in days gone by, had left their money at the box office to see him act, and if his health remain as good as It is this reason he didn't know but he would be playing to their descendants In the years to come. Mr. Jefferson's Caleb Plummer was not enjoyed, perhaps, so much as Gollghtly In the afterpiece of "Lend Me Five Shillings." It has been a number of years since he had played either In this city, and to many it was very much like going to see a new play. Of those in his company several have long been celebrated. Not many lemembered Miss Connie Jackson, the dear delightful sister of Mr. Jefferson, who played Tillie Slow boy, and it wasn't every one who knew that Joseph Warren was only another name for Joseph Jefferson, jr. In addition to these members of his family Mr. Jefferson had two younger sons "in front" of the house, looking after matters not so artistic. Cora G. Smith Married Again. CLEVELAND, Oct. 27. Mrs. Cora Gabrlelle Smith and Mr. Fred M. Ranken. of New York, were quietly married here this evening at the residence of Mrs. N. Coe Stewart.

The couple ett for the East immediately after the ceremony. Mrs. Cora Gabrlelle Smith Ranken secured her divorce last spring after less than a year's wedded life with Beaumont Smith. Smith played here last season for a while with the Temple Opera Company. He is equally good as a straight actor and as a comic opera comedian. He was originally with the old McCullough Dramatic Company and was associated at different times with Augustus Thomas, the playwright, and Frank Wyman. Cora Smith, after her divorce, left the stage and intended going into grand opera after studying abroad. Her sister. Miss Curns, is a well-known artist in New York. Henry Shafer Quick: Dead. FOND DU LAC, Wis., Oct. 27. Henry Shafer Quick, aged seventy-five years, and at one time recognized as a leading actor of the United States, died here yesterday.

The women of a Connecticut town have given a triumphant answer to the objection against equil suffrage that women of refinement could not endure the rough pushing and elbowing of men of all classes at the polls. These particular suffragists took an 'ntenre interest In the result of a school election and turned out In force. They settled the difficulty quoted by simply shoving the men out of the way. the masculine vote being compelled, by sheer force of might, to wait until the feminine contingent hal expressed Its opinion ty ballot.
