ahead of him or with th? prospect 0f the continuance c? present policies. Merely to put the question In that way, is enough to thow the absurdity of the claim made by our opponents. "Bryanism means widespread and farreaching business calamity and disaster, and therefore It necessarily means grinding poverty for the many and even for the few more fortunate, anxiety and business disaster. "It la a mero axiom that a young man's chances are Lest In a community where there is general prosperity. It is equally an axiom that at a time of great business depression a young man chances are at a minimum. As a matter of fact, there is no other courtry in the world to-day which begins to offer th chance to younK men that America crfers. The ver'ombinations of corporate wealth of which such bitter, and !n gome ca5es, such Just complaint 13 made have at their heads men who. in ninety-nine cases out of a hundred. Marled as young men. with little but their own energy and brains to help them. "Undoubtedly the extraordinary developments of corporate wealth and great concentrations, not alone capital but in population, of the last veneration, have produced very serious problems, problems which will tax the skill of the widest legislator, but which all of us are in honor bound to try to solve. I believe that much van be done, both to better the condition of the wageworker and to lessen some of the undoubted abuses of corporate wealth. I will stand shoulder to shoulder with any man who In pood faith works along resonable lines toward these ends, but I will take part in no crude and vicious effort to reform all Inequalities of prosperity by destroying all prosperity. This is precisely rhat Mr. Jiryun and his associates propose to do. There are many ways in which our civic and social conditions can be bettered but such betterment can be brought about only by honest, kindly, resolute facing of facts end peeking new remedies, not by indiscriminate denunciation and pandering of evil passions for present gain." SrEECHCS OF THE DAY.

Bryanltew Hrbnkrd for thr Outrage at Elm Ira 3Ionduy Night. ItOCIIESTEK. X. Y. Oct. 30. The Roosevelt party made an early start Westward from Elmlra to-day. The stops of the day were numerous, the tour iinahy ending In Rochester to-night. The general conversation of the party this morning was of the riotous times of last night. Governor Roosevelt said that the first attack on the. carriage in which he and Senator Faaeett were riding came from small boys. '! saw the boys 'fire the vegetables and decayed fruit," said the Governor, "and a few sticks also were thrown. It was a body of grown men, however, who pushed up against the carriage and thrust lithographs of Stanchfield in my face. Several times it looked as If it was the Intention of the crowd to rush us out of the carriage, but a number of men on horseback gathered around and prevented that. 1 did not see the fracas In which the men were injured." , The Corning Club which got into a fight In attempting to defend its banner from attack suffered severely. Sir men were Quite badly wounded with stones and sticks and blood Mowed quite freely. They were finally escorted to the station by the police and put aboard their special train. "The city administration of Elmira is Republican." said Senator Fassett this morning, "but the police force is Democratic." An Incident of the morning was the passing of three presidential trains at Elmlra.. Candidate Woolley, of the Prohibition party, went by one on one side of the Roosevelt train and Colonel Bryan went on his train a few minutes later, no courtesies being exchanged. SPEECH AT CORNING. The first stop of the day of the Roosevelt train was made at Corning, the home cf the club which was assaulted last night during the parade in Elmlra. It was raining quite hard when the train got to the station, but still there was a dense crowd awaiting It, and as the Governor remarked: "More umbrellas than I have ever seen In my life before." It was some time before the Govetnor could speak because of the cheering, but finally he. said: "It Is perfectly evident that Corning has not teen daunted by its reception at Elmlra last night. It Indicates tus, that you have got good stuff In you hTe." "So have you," shouted one of his hearers. "And I think." continued the Governor, 'that sooner or later our opponents will .grow to think that mob violence is not the way to keep Republicans back. We have a right to appeal not merely to Republicans, but every citizen who believes In orderly liberty under the law and who is against mob violence in all its forms, to stand with us and not merely next Tuesday overthrow Bryanism. but stamp it under fcot so it shall never come up. You may have noticed in this morning's papers that another mob yesterday broke up Senator Depew's meeting at Coblesklll. Mr. Bryan spoke there in the morning and was listened to with due respect, and then when Senator Depew came there later on in the day they broke up his meeting by violence and refused to listen to him. "Your fellow-townsmen who came back to-day, they have not merely been hooted, they have been maltreated scandalously by a mob which wished to break up the meeting and procession last night. Now fundamentally,- this contest Li a contest against Just that type of thing. It is absolutely Impossible that the kind of canvass which our opponents have waged could be W.iged without exciting Just the spirit that was manifested last night. When Air Bryan's supporters, hi chief supporters on the stump and in the pres. appeal to the basest passion in mankind and sek to persuade some of our people that they are being cruelly wronged by others and must avengo themselves, when that is SHOWERS TO-DAY.

done it Is simply a provocative to violence. We can afford to differ on some questions, but wo cannot afford to differ on the questions of law and order, of the right of peaceable meeting, of peaceable gathering, of non-lnterruptlon of speech. Not only do our opponents, when they act a3 they did yesterday, cast shame upon themselves, but they cast shame upon the country. AN OUTRAGE. "It is an outrage," continued the Governor, "that any party should so conduct a campaign so as to arouse and inflame a spirit like that which was manifested last evening. l want to make an appeal also on the ground of our policies. You know whether or not in Corning you have prospered during the past four years. Mr. Bryan speaks about trusts and his proposed remedy is to take the tariff off of any article In which the trust is in any way concerned. How would you like the tariff taken off cut-glass?" "No, no, no," came from the crowd. "I ask you to support our cause," continued the Governor, "because under it you have prospered." The second stop of the Roosevelt train was at Rath, where is located the Soldiers' Home for veterans of the civil war, a large number of whom were among the great crowd that gathered at the depot. Governor Roosevelt said: "I appreciate very deeply your coming down to greet me in such weather. When I speak at Bath most naturally I recall the deeds done by the men who fought in the great civil war. This Is more than a mere party contest; it's a contest fundamentally for those principles of good citizenship which must underlie all party differences, and in the name of shrewd common sense, which we are proud to claim as distinctively American characteristic, I ask you not to go back to the days of five or six years ago. All I want you to do is to take into account our deeds and our opponents' words." Avon, the third stop of the day, Is one of the few villages in Steuben county which gave a majority for Mr. Bryan four years ago. At Livonia, a five-minute stop was made. The Governor compared the right of suffrage of the black men In Porto Rico and North Carolina, and said in conclusion: "At the coming election in Porto Rico next Tuesday, when they vote Just as we vote here, one in eight of the inhabitants of that island is registered and can vote. In Mississippi and South Carolina the voting has been but one in eighteen and one in sixteen of the population." Governor Roosevelt's train circled the city this afternoon, transferred from the Erie to the New York Central tracks and left for a short trip to Canandalgua. Geneva and Pennyan. returning to the city this evening. At the '" out Exchange street, several hundred employes of the road and factories in the vicinity gave the Governor a hearty welcome. He said: "I see that you are all worklngmen and that you are at work. Four years ago Mr. Bryan told you the country would go to perdition If President McKinley were elected. You know how false his prophecies were. Do not let him deceive you this year. If a man fools you once it is his fault. If he fools you the second time it is your fault." When his train reached the Central Depot here there" were hundreds gathered to welcome him, but he made no attempt to speak, dismissing them with an invitation to come to Fitzhugh Hall this evening. TO EXPEL FOREIGNERS

nilPRKSS DOWAGER TIIVIXG TO RAISE A POWERFUL' ARM V. Wants to Kill Converts and Drive Foreign Devils Out of the YangTs e Rejtlon of China. LONDON, Oct. 31. "Most serious trou ble," says the Shanghai correspondent of the Dally Express, "is brewing in the Yang-Tse region, whither the Empress dowager has sent emissaries to raise powerful armed bodies to exterminate converts and expel foreigners. She has appointed Yu Chuan, a notoriously anti-foreign general, to be military governor of the Yang-Tse district." In the province of Kwang-Tung, according to Hong-Kong correspondent of the Daily Mail, the rebellion is subsiding, owing to the scarcity of arms and ammunition. The Shanghai correspondent of the Times, wiring yesterday, says Li Hung Chang has telegraphed to Chang Chlh Tung, the Wu-Chang viceroy, that the peace negotiations are satisfactory, but to other leading officials he has telegraphed exactly the reverse, bidding them prepare for eventualities. "I learn," says the Brussels correspondent of the Times; "that King Leopold's visit to Paris has resulted in a Franco-Belgian convention for the protection of tho common interests of France and Belgium In China." Surrounded by Doxers. PAO-TING-FU, Oct. 24.-The city of Pao-Tlng-Fu has been divided Into districts under the superintendence of the various nationalities represented in the occupying force.

WASHINGTON, Oct. 30.-Orders have been sent to Peking detaching General James H. Wilson from duty as chief of staff under General Chaffee and directing him to return to tho United States. It had been the. purpose of the government to make General Wilson a member of the projected American committee to tnNat with the Chinese government for a settlement, but the abandonment of that plan in favor of direct negotiations through Minister Conger made it unnecessary to detail General Wilson In China. Death of WanK Wen Shao. WASHINGTON, Oct. 30.-The Japanese legation received a dispatch to-day giving the death of Wang Wen Shao, Imperial treasurer of China, in addition to those high olflcial3 whose deaths have already been announced. Wang Wen Shao was one of the most loyal adherents of the imperial family, and when they took flight from Peking he insisted upon following, despite his advanced age. Ills death came from natural causes, probably from old age and the fatigues of the flight. SIX-YEAR-OLD MURDERER. Little Doy Kills Another for Kicking Over a Little Saud-Ilonse. CHICAGO, Oct. 30.

MR. PARSONS HITS BACK

ISSUES A STATEMENT REPLYING TO RECENT ATTACKS. Bedford Rank Victimized by a Stranccr Denth of n Centenarian Turnpike Raiders Operations. Social to the Indianapolis Journal. MUNCIE, Ind., Oct. 30. Grand Master Workman Parsons, of the Knights of Labor, who is looking after the Interests cf the independent glassworkers in their fight against Simon Burns and the window glass trust, has Issued a statement in which he defends his position as official head of the order against an attack made on him by a local paper at the instigation of Burns's adherents. He comments favorably on the action of the committee In charge of Sunday's meeting in refusing to allow It to be turned from its prime purpose to a debate for the airing of factional differences, and expresses his willingness to meet any accredited representative of the other side for the private discussion of those differences. He says, however, that those members of L. A. COO who voted to sever the relations between that body and the Knights of Labor are hardly In position to criticise his right to represent the K. of L., as by that vote they exiK?Hed themselves from the order. He denies that he is seeking to serve any personal amblt'.on, but is only seeking to settle the differences that exist and put the trades Interested on a sound and harmonious basis. He denies also th3 report that in a speech at Dunkirk he made invidious remarks concerning the wag-) committee of the Amalgamated Association, and says that all these charges and reports have their origin in the wish to discredit him and his work before union labor, and particularly that part of union labor with which he is so closely connectedthe glass trades and iron, steel and tin workers.

WILL TRAVEL INCOGNITO

KRl'GER NOT TO POSE IN EUROPE AS THE TKAASVAAL PRESIDENT. French Government Will Not Give Hiiu a Formal Reception, bat Paris Will Fete 111m. PARIS. Oct. 30. The Foreign Of3ce officials believe former President Kruger will travel incognito during his visit to the European capitals, relinquishing it In each city only to rermlt "an exchange of visits between Mr. Kruger and the head of the nation. His stay In Paris will not exceed forty-eight hours and possibly only twenty-four. The French government will not offer Mr. Kruger any formal function, though it is said the city will tender him a demonstration which will be a scene of enthusiasm. The government will not take part in the reception but will not, however, put any obstacle in the way of private plans of welcome. In short, the government will not take any step likely to be construed as an offense to Great Britain, though it is certain President Loubet and Mr. Kruger will exchange visits. The same proceeding, it is believed, will be followed at each European capital visited. Boers Probably Reinforced. LONDON, Oct. 31. The Cape Town correspondent of the Dally Mall comments on the "astonishing outburst of Boer activity," and points to the possibility of the Boers having been reinforced. Complaints are being heard in Cape Town, he asserts, regarding the "premature disbanding and dispensing with the services of the various volunteer forces." The same correspondent says he learns on the highest authority that the late Prince Christian Victor was playing cricket early last week and that he was then congratulated on his rapid recovery from enteric fever. A chill caught during tho game caused a relapse, with complications that proved fatal. The remains will be brought to England for Interment. Americans Not Released. LONDON. Oct. 30. The report that Lord Salisbury has notified the United States Ambassador Joseph H. Choate that the British authorities will release all the American prisoners In Ceylon, South Africa, and St. Helena, is incorrect. Mr. Choate has not been notified of their approaching release, nor have any representations been made to that end by the United States embassy here. All that has been done consists in an exchange of communications regarding the identity and destination of American civilians deported from the Transvaal and sent home at the expense of the British government. Boer Women Deported. CRADOCK, Cape Colony, Oct. 30. The Dutch Church' is the only buildlpg left standing in Bothavllle, owing, it is said, to the strong British measures.

Jack McClelland, of Pittsburg, and Billy Ryan, of Syracuse, fought twenty rounds to a draw at Pittsburg last night They weighed in at 122 pounds. Emil Sanchez, the Cuban wonder, of Detroit, fought a twenty-round draw with Kid Ashe, of Cincinnati, before the Senate Athletic Club at Springfield, 0., last night.

Apparently So Protection Agralnst Theft bat Personal Honesty. New York Letter in Philadelphia Press. Bankers here are of the opinion that It was Impossible for Alvord. the note teller of the First National Bank, to have carried on a system of thefts extending over four or five years and aggregating at least JSTO.OOO, unless he had had confederates. Yet, after all, this colossal robbery again Illustrates the noundness of the view that experienced bankers aro taking, that it Is impossible to Invent any system of bookkeeping or of checks and counter checks which will not permit a theft to go undetected more than twenty-four hours. A few years ago, when the defalcation of one of the clerks of the Shoe and Leather Bank whs made public, the president of a Wall-street bank said to the writer: "In my bank a defalcation of that kind would be impossible. We have perfected such a system of check and counter check as to make the detection of a theft inevitable at the close of every business day. The only robbery that could be committed here would be actual larceny, the grabbing of money and running out upon the street with it." And yet, within three weeks, one of the clerks of that very bank was detected in pilfering which had bec.a carried on for nearly six months, and which amounted in the aggregate to nearly $50.000. So that it is now the impression among leading bankers that the best that can be done Is to provide a good system of bookkeeping and of checking, and then to rely upon tho honesty of the employes. If there is no faith in anyone, and If it is impossible to perfect any mechanism by which thieving Is sure to be detected within twenty-four hours, then the builcets et banking cr any other that la-

State and national, were unable to discover theee great stealings. But that criticism is taid to be unjust. An expert bookkeeper, if he has access, or has a confederate who has acceps. to tally books and to the various checks, can certainly deceive the most expert accountant, unlets that accountant" verities "upon consecutive days for two or three weeks. None of the bank examiners can do that. They must rely simply upon appearing at an unexpected moment, take Immediate charge of the cash and securities, make their examination and then go away. What recms more astonishing in this First National Bank case is that the clerk who committed these robberies had been for some years living in the manner of a man who possessed a large income, so that it would seem as though reports of the manner of life must Fooner or later have reached the bank's officers. LIHD'S TREASON. Governor of Minnesota Is Anxious tQ Hans; Amrrlra it Soldtera, Minneapolis Tribune. It was recently reported that Governor Llnd, In his speech at Wadena on Oct. 20, explaining that the Increased price which the State was obliged to pay for Manila hemp used in the manufacture of prison binding twine, was due to the war in the Philippines, added: "You know that a war always creates a greit demand for rope, and my only regret Is that more rope was not used and everybody connected with the war hung." Although Governor Llnd has on Bcveral occasions displayed almost fiendish malice In condemning the Philippine war and the policy of the national administration in connection therewith, the Tribune could hardly credit the report that he had used such language towards "everybody connected with that war." We could not believe that he had carried his enmity to fuclf extreme length as to express the wish that everybody and everybody, of course, means all, from President Mclvlnley, who is the commander in chief of the army and navy, from Senator Davis, who was iargely instrumental in negotiating the Spanish treaty, from all the distinguished statesmen and generals who have had anything to do with the war, down to the humblest private in the ranks should be hanged by the neck until he is dead! We did not, therefore, feel like accepting the above quoted paragraph as a correct report of Governor I.ind's speech; but now comes the St. Paul Pioneer Press and produces a statement signed by twelve leading citizens of Wadena county, who were present at the meeting. In which they say: "We, the undesigned, were present at the meeting addressed by Governor Llni at Wadena, Minn., Saturday, Oct. 20. 1)0, and the above language Is substantially that used by him on that occasion. Kach of us understands th.it the languasr quoted above conveys absolutely the sentiment expressed by him." The Pioneer Press says It Is in possession of the names of these twelve citizen!, an'l that they are men of the highest standing in the community. Ths names will probably be given to the public if their version of the speech Is denied by Governor I.nd. If Governor Llnd woultf have everybody connected with the Philippine war hanged he would hang all the members of the Thirteenth Minnesota Regiment, and among the first to Ewln would be his warden of the pe ntt ntlary. Gen. Charles McC. Reeve, who is the man that led th regiment to Manlli to take part in the war. If Governor Lind is to be re-elected and the boj's are to be all hanced. tho who met a oMIer's deatn whife fighting to uphold the flag of the country may be accounted to have had h truly fortunato escape! It is far better to moot a so! die r's death on the field of battlo as General Lawton did than to come home and b hanged for participation in a war because said war raised tho price of h"irp! It Is fortunate for the country that men of Governor Lird's sanguinary disposition are not endowed with j-.owcr In projx;rtlo:i to their desires. If they could be. and if John Llnd could bo made dictator, as his frlond ApuinalJo aspires to be in the Philippines, blood will fiow in the streets bore, as it docs there wherever Aguhialdos ladrones and banditti obtain the upper hand.
