Mr. Bryan »Passeis Through Wash- , ington on Way to Tour of Marjland. 3 ROOSEVELT GANVASS|NG HOME STATE. Secretary Long I;‘.ehvel Washington for a Speechmt:;klng Trip in West Virginia—National Candidates of Prohibition Party Continue Tour of the New England States,

Washington, Oc‘f. 24,—Hon. William J. Bryan spent an hour and a quarter at the national capital Tuesday. His train arrived over the Chesapeake & Ohio railroad from West Virginia at 7:55 o’clock in the morning, an hour late. About I.ooo{~ people were awaiting him at the depot. A force of three-score policelruén‘ and detectiveswere distrfl)utedlbetween the two depots to maintain order. As the train pulled in, hm'id cheers of the waiting erowd, ex-Judge William M. Springer, 'formerfchairmfln of the house committee gpn ways and means, an old colleague and warm friend of the demoeratic candidate, stepped to Mr. Bryan’s private car at the rear of the train and wglco_med' him. The two then passed| down through the depot, followed by a large and enthusiastic crowd, and gradually worked their way to the| entrance. Here an automobile was in waiting, and they were taken to the residence of Judge Springer, opposit«ia the capitol, where Mr. Bryan had breakfast.- Col. Isaac Hill, democratic *whip” of the house of representatives, was the only other guest. A few jlinutes before nine o’clock Mr. Brya;‘l was driven to the Baltimore & Ohto depot, where he made a brief splech from his automobile. He spoké on imperialism and civil service. About 5,000 people were massed about t-hé depot. Mr. Bryan closed with the statement that it was not his highest amhition to be president, “but to make this government s 0 good that to be a private citizen i%l this republic will be a greater honor than to be a king in any other nation.”

The Tour| of Maryland. A delegation rjxn'om the Maryland state central committee met Mr. Bryan here and a,-tnL few minutes after nine he left in a special train of three cars for Rockvillg where nhe made the first of a series of speeches in a tour of Maryland towns. Before reachi#g Washington . the train on which Mr. Bryan came in made a brief stop at Alexandria, Va. The statement héad been made in advance that Mr. Bryan would make a brief speech in that town, and a large number of people had congregated at the railroad yards to greet him. They received him with vociferous cheers, but no time was given for a speech. Mr. Bryan had only time to say that he felt complimented to have so many people come out to greet him so early ‘n the morning. He felt, he said, sure of Virginia’s support, and from what he had seen of other states-recently he felt justified in asserting that Virginia would have plenty of company on election day. 2 The only other stop made in Virginia after daylight was at Manassas. That point was reached at a very early hour. The stop was only for a moment and Mr. Bryan did not appear. Nevertheless there was a crowd at the station. y

To Return to New York. New York, Oct. 24.—William J. Bryan’s itinerary, after he has finished with the National Association of Democratic Clubs Saturday night, has been prepared by the democratic state committee. -

He will rest in this city Sunday, and will start up the state on the New York Central railroad at half-past nine o’clock that night. He will make 18 speeches on Monday, returning to New York for a few hours. He will start out again about midnight and on Tuesday will make 14 speeches. Roosevelt Keeps in Good Voice: Kingston, N. Y., Oct. 24.—Despite the serious strain of the numerous speeches made Monday Gov. Roosevelt found his throat in excellent condition Tuesday morning when he arose. He had declined numerous invitations to rest at private houses and slept on the special train at “the noisiest place,” as he described it, since he began his trip. It was at the junction of the West Shore and Ulster & Delaware roads and moving engines and trains were frequent, The governor rose early and breakfasted before the start for the mountains, which was scheduled for nine o’clock. He was inclined to laugh at the numerous interruptions at outdoor points Mon. day. Relating to the one made in front of the Y. M. C. A, rooms Monday evening in this -city, he was told by Capt. Joseph Dickey that the element that createu the disturbance was composed of loungers and foreigners. He laughed and said: “Well, if they insist on answers, and won’t let the meetings go on in an orderly manner, i'll drive them away by talk that they can wunderstand.” He was assured that the country through which he was going Tuesday would not produce the same kind of disorder. It was nine o’clock when the train pulled out of the station and started up the Catskill mountains. The trip for the day covers 276 miles, and requires running on three different railroads. Fifteen speeches will be made by the candidate. The morning was beautiful and the mountains looked their prets tiest in autumn attize. Capt. Joseph

Dickey, of Newburgh, and George J. Smith, of Kingston, went with the party from here. : : | Secretary Long Goes to West Virginia Washington, Oect. 24, — Secretary. Long leaves Washington Tuesday afternoon for Martinsburg, W. Va., where he is to speak in the interest of Representative Dayton and the national ticket. Prohibitionists im Rhode Island. Kingston, R. 1., Oct. 24.—John G. Woolley, the prohibition candidate for president, left Hartford at 6:30 o’clock a. m., by regular train over the Valley road, arriving at Kingston at 11 o’clock. He was accompanied by Volney B. Cushing and Samuel Dickie. An afternoon meeting was held at Kingston after which the party proceeded to Providence where the night meeting was scheduled. The forced though temporary abandonment of the prohibition special train has proven a great disappointment to prohibitionists along the line. The train will be reeccupied at Boston Wednesday night for the remainder ot the campaign. : BIG BANK STEAL. Note. Teller in First National Bank of New York City Defaulter for Large Amount, . New York, Oct. 24.—Shortly before the close of business in Wall street Tuesday afternoon there was a current rumor to the effect that C. L. Alvord, one of the employes of the First national bank, had defaulted to a large amount. The bank gave out the following statement late Tuesday: ‘“The nfc;te teller, who has been in the employ of the First national bank for many years, is a defaulter to a large amount. His operations have continued for a considerable period, and have been skillfully concealed through a manipulation of his balance book. The discovery was made by one of the bank’s employes a few days after the completion of an examination of the bank by the United States examiners. During the continuance of his peculations periodical examinations have been made by several distinct corps of examiners representing the comptroller’s department, all expert accountants; and the bagk has also had frequent independent examinations; neither of which has developed any irregularity. The aggregate of the false entries amounting to $700,000 has. been charged off on the books of the bank out of the reserve fund, without diminishingthe surplus and profits of the bank as reported in its last published statement. It is expected that the shortage will be materially reduced by a substantial sum, of which there is fair prospect of recovery.’’ ‘The man has not yet been arrested, but will probably be apprehended before long. ' Officer and Prisoner W'onnded. Williamsburg, Ky., Oct. 24.—United States Commrissioner Moore has asked for a deputy marshal to guard D. D. Taylor, who is seriously wounded, at Birdseye mines. Taylor had been arrested by Deputy Marshal Fuston, but had managed to secure a Winchester and opened fire on Fuston, who returned the fire. Both men are probably fatally wounded. _ i Died of Alcoholism, New York, Oct. 24.—An autopsy was held on the body of Capt. Norton D. Whitley, of Birmingham, Ala.,” who was found dead in the hallway of an alleged gambling house in Elizabeth ‘street. The examination showed that he died of cirrhosis of the liver and alcoholism. The body will be shipped to Birmingham." Shot by a Negro, Valdosta, Ga., Oct. 24.—J. F. Redding, a prominent planter of Madison county, Fla.,, was shot and fatally wounded on his plantation by a negro. Mr. Redding, it is understood, accused the negro of stealing cotton. The negro escaped, but is being pursued by a large posse. : ' ' Big Pigeon Shoot.

Belief at Miners’ Headquarters That Strike Will Be Called - Off Very Shortly. BIG DEMONSTRATION AT POTTSVILLE. More of the Mines Post Notices of Concessions to Mlnei-s—Delawnre, Lackawanna & Western Getting Coal Cars Ready for Resumption of Mining and Shipping of Coal.

. Hazleton, Pa., Oct. 24.—Around the national headquarters of the United Mine Workers Tuesday the belief was unanimous that the end of the strike will come within a very short time. President Mitchell, notwithstanding contrary reports, has set no date for calling off the strike. As soon as all the operators signify their willingness to pay ten per cent. advance in wages until April the national executive board will be called in session to vote on ending the contest. President Mitchell appears to be more anxious sbout the Delaware, Lackawanna & Western and the Delaware & Hudson Coal companies than any of the others. These companies have takensuch a prominent part in the struggle that it is believed that as soon as they post supplemental notices the other operators will fall into line. President Mitchell and a number of other labor leaders left here at 12:50 o’clock to participate in a parade and mass meeting at Pottsvillee Up to that time no additional notices had been posted by the coal operators. More Notices Posted. Sceranton, Pa., Oct. 24.—The Forest Mining company, at Archbald, employing 900 men, Tuesday posted notices giving the ten per cent. increase in wages, reducing the price of powder to $1.50 a keg, the mew price to figure in the increase to contract miners, and guaranteeing the increase to continue until April 1 next, and thereafter until further orders. ' The employes of this company have been on strike since last January. Notices of a like character were expected Tuesday from all the large companies in the region that have not yet posted their mines. Thomas Nicholls, president of District No. 1 of the United Mine Workers, Tuesday admitted that the end of the strike is near and that it would come in a very few days. A meeting of all’ the district and national officers has been called for Wednesday, he said, and at this meeting positive action will probably be taken, provided, however, that all coal companies will guarantee a ten per cent. advance until April 1. ‘ Preparing to Resume Work. Wilkesbarre, Pa., Oct. 24—Empty coal cars are being placed at all the Delaware, Lackawanna & Western company’s mines, and it is apparent that the company is preparing to mine and ship coal. This is taken as an indication that the companies are getting ready for the return of their men to work following the posting of notices at every mine. General Superintendent Lathrop, of the Lehigh Valley Coal company, is said to be in New York preparing for a resumption of coal shipments. . No attempt was made Tuesday morning to resume work at the Stanton washery of the Lehigh - & Wilkesbarre Coal company, which ‘was closed Monday following an attack on the men by a crowd of women and boys. Shots were fired from the windows of houses near by at the coal and iron police who were guarding the coal bank. The company, rather than see any loss of life, withdrew the policemen from the bank and stationed them at the coal breaker. As soon as the policemen took their departure a crowd of men, presumably strikers, marched on the company’s property, tore up 200 feet of railroad track and set fire to a toolhouse. : In Session at Indianapolis, Indianapolis, Ind., Oct. 24.—The first session of the convention of the American Public Health association was opened in the auditorium of the German house. The president of the association, Dr. Peter H. Bryce, of Ontario, Canada, called the convention to order. : Presented with Gold Nugget. Victoria, B. C., Oct. 24.—Citizens of Victoria presented Rear Admiral Beaumont, who has been promoted to the Australian station, with an address and a massive gold nugget. He is to be succeeded on this station by Rear Admiral Bickford.

Heath, secretary of the Republican national committee, wrote Gen. Brinkerhoff, one of the surviving members of the firat republican convention, requesting him to sign an address to Lincoln Republicans, a copv of which was inclosed. Gen.

Brinkerhoff follow: ) CHICAGO, Oct. 13.—Hon. Roeliff Brinkerhoff, Mansfield, O.—Dear Sir: The suggestion has been made by the Hon.

Heath,Secretary Republican National Committee.—Dear Sir: On my return home after a week’s absense I find your letter of the 13th, asking me, as one of the survivors of the Pittsburg convention of 1856, organizing the republican party, to approve of its present position. Of the Ohio delegation there are now only three surviving—the Hon. Rush R. Sloan, of Sandusky; the Hon. George H. Frey, of Springfield, and myself. Of these, Frey alone is a Republican; Sloan and I are Demoerats. Gov. Edgerton of Akron, who died recently, was also a Democrat. Judge Upson, who has been quoted as one of the survivors, was at Philadelphia, but not at Pittsburg. There were about 60 Ohio delegates at the Pittsburg convention, and nearly all of them subsequently were men of re-. nown, and from my knowledge of them I am very sure a large. majority, if now living, would be Democrats. We did not leave the republican party. The republican party left us. 'Ehe republican platforms of 1866, 1860 and 1864, alsoin 1868, with the exeeption of a single plank, were fully in accord with the prineiples of Jefferson Democracy, but in 1872 the republican party drifted to strange. gods, with prote *tion as their chief, and the democratic party, after wandering in the wilderness for a dozen years, returned to its old faith, and since then I have been at home in politics with the comrades of my youth. Then and since then occasionally there have been planks in democratic ?Ila.tforms I did not approve, and there are such now, as there are spots in the sun, but, as a whole, the principles of home rule, free trade and fair play for all remain undimmed, and just now William Jennings Bryan is their prophet. Under existing circumstances, you must excuse me in refusing to sign the pa.%ar you sent me. : ery respectfully yours, - R. BRINKERHOFF.
