ABOUT NEW YORK
Bryan Makes Sixteen Scorch
ing Speeches in Single -Day.
SLEEPLESS, BUT VIGOROUS
Denounce as Traitors Republican
Working men Contracts Com
per as Democrat With Knox
as Aristocrat Flays Taft.
NEW YORK. Oct. 27. Winding up his
remarkable campaign In and about Great
er New York, W. J. Bryan s whirled
316 nil If by automobile In Manhattan
and Brooklyn during the day and night
and made eight speeches between the
hours of and 12 o'clock tonight. In New
York he was accompanied by Charles F.
Murphy, the Tammany leader. Arriving
at Brooklyn Bridge, he was met by Sen
ator Patrick H. McCarren, the Democrat
ic leader of Kings County. Lieutenant
Governor Lewis Stuyvesant Chanler's
campaign for Governor coincided with Mr.
Bryan 'a Itinerary both in Manhattan and
Brooklyn, and. while he in one place was
pleading for loyal -support of the National
ticket. Mr. Bryan at another was urging
votes for the state candidate from Gov
ernor down, and for the Democratic nom
inees for Congress.
Eighteen. Speeches in Day.
Mr. Bryan mad IS speeches during the
day, and everywhere he went plowing
at times through mud and rain and In a
rush to keep hjf many engagements he
was greeted by some of the largest and
rnoct enthusiastic audiences of his tour.
The Democratic candidate's eventful day
began at 3 A. M., when he addressed
the night workers from the steps of the
City Hall. Then followed a, Broadway
meeting at 10 o'clock and a forenoon trip
to Brooklyn to address an audience of
laboring men In and about Market Square.
From Brooklyn Mr. Bryan hurried
across to Long Island City, then to Jersey
City, where three speeches ended the
New Jersey campaign.
Back In New York again Mr.
Bryan was the guest of the
College Men's Democratic Club and
with Mr. Murphy was hurried up town
for two Harlem meetings. Six meetings
In Brooklyn, the principal one at Clare-mont-avenue
rink brought the day's
work to a close.
Traitors Among Worklngmea.
Although he had had but two hours
U-cp out of 36. Mr. Bryan spoke with alt
of hia characteristic vigor and good
humor. In all of his speeches today Mr.
Bryan warned the worklngmen against
tiie traitors among them. He asserted
that every laboring man who voted the
Republican ticket would vote to repudiate
ttie things that labor demanded In the
Denver platform. He held up Mr. Taft
as the enemy of labor and assailed him
at every opportunity. His references to
the guaranty of bunk deposits brought
shouts of approval at all of his meetings.
Mr. Chanler shared everywhere In the
welcome that was accorded Mr. Bryan.
in his principal Brooklyn speeches de
livered at the rink. Mr. Bryan first dis
cussed publicity of campaign contribu
tions. Proud of Pure Politics.
"The people have been cheated. he
Faid, "because the Republican organiza
tion has given the promise In advance
that the people shall pay back through
legislation the money contributed."
The Democrats, he declared, wanted to
Inaugurate a new era In poltics and he
said he was proud to be connected with
that movement. With Democratic ap
plause he added:
"My friends, you may vote me down
or hold me up, you may elect or you may
defeat me, but the time will come when
this country will enjoy the relief that
we are now trying to bring, and when
that time comes and politics is purltled
and elections and canvasses made honest,
whether I am living or dead, the country
will give me the credit that I took part in
this campaign for good polities."
A rtstocra ts and Demwra ts.
Taking up the labor question, he re
ferred to the President's attack on
Samuel Gompers.
"Mr. Ciompers,' he declared, "thinks
with the laboring man. while Mr. Knox,
whom - the President appointed In Mr.
(tampers stead, would think for the
laboring man." It would be a matter
f Indifference to Mr. Knox," he said
'whether what he thought for them
Sitcreed with them or not.
"In fact, my friends," he said, "the
difference between an aristocrat and a
Democrat Is that the aristocrat feels in
duty bound to keep the people from
hurting themselves, even If to do so he
has to prevent the people from con
trolling their own government, while a
Democrat says not that the people will
make any mistakes, but that the people
have a right to make their own mis
takes and that nobody has a right to
make their mistakes for them."
Says Knox Con culled Frick.
He scored Mr. Knox for his attitude
while Attorney-General regarding the
IittlcftVld anti-trust bill, which, he
charged, was defeated after Mr. Knnx
had gone to Tittsburg and held a con
ference with II. C. Frick.
Mr. Bryan flayed Mr. Taft for his
s'lenee at certain places where he de
livered speeches on the subject of guar
anty of bank deposits and his attitude
on the trusts. He closed with another
denunciation of the President for Inter
fering In the campaign.
Mr. Bryan will leave tomorrow morn
ing over the New York Central for
Schenectady, Albany and Troy.
TAIJvS TO "COMMON PEOPLE"
Bryan Pours Forth Affection on
Crowds at Brooklyn.
NF7VV YORK. Oct. 27. All factions of
the Democratic party in Brooklyn took
part in the day's demonstration for Mr.
Kryan. He was the guest of Michael A.
Flaherty. ex-Sheriff and anti-McOarren
leader, at luncheon. Later In the day it
vas planned for Senator McCarren to
bring the I residential candldat" to
Urooklyn in an automobile to address
several meetings, one of which at least
was arranged by Mr. McOarren's op
ponents. Although Mr. Bryan did not reach his
hotel until after 4 o'clock this morning,
he was up a little after 9 o'clock and
fcad conferences with many Democrats.
Including Mr. McCarren and Perry Bel
mont. Mr. Bryan said that he felt very
well after his 2-hour speaking trip yes
terday and declared it was the most
Mrenunus he had ever had.
He began his day's speaking tour at
the rooms of the Order of Acorns In
Broadway. where Lieutenant-Governor
Chanler was also a speaker. An hour
before the meeting wu scheduled to be
jrln a long line of people formed on
doors were opened, the room was quickly
filled.
Mr. Chanler was greeted with great en
thusiasm as he entered the hall. Mr.
Chanler made a speech which waa de
voted to state affairs.
By the time Mr. Bryan reached the
-icinity of the hail the street was almost
completely filled with people who had
been unable to gain admittance to the
hall. As he made his way through the
throng, he was greeted with cheers and
shouts which were taken up by those
within the hall.
Talks to Common People.
Mr. Bryan said he always was glad to
speak to the common people, "because
the common people are the people." he
said and continued:
I know of no greater service I have
rendered my country thin that which 1
have rendered In emphasising the fact that
everr man who contributes by brain or
muscle to this Nation's wealth Is a busi
ness man and must be considered a part
of the business world. The Republican
party Is not In sympathy with the masses
and will not legislate for them, and when
a man feeis that his party la not standing
for him he will not stand for the party.
Last year 1 saw hundreds of people in
the rain on a Sunday morning and they
were going- to sit there until Monday morn
ing In order that they might present their
checks at the banks. Did the Republi
can partv attempt to regulate banks more
carefully? Did It attempt to protect peo
ple from the men who got In on the In
side and eiplolted with depositors money!
The only bill that was passed waa one that
financiers asked for. giving them a larger
hold on the banks of the country. Fifteen
million depositors asked for protection and
the Republican party ignored their de
mands and listened to the demands or a
few financiers. j
Submit Platforms to reople.
If we could Just submit the two plat
forms to the American people and let them
vote on those two platforms with the un
'derstandlng that, no matter which candi
date was electsd President, the vote on
the platform would go. my platform would
be elected bv a vole of not less than S to 1.
and I am not sure but that It would be a
10-to-l. I am not afraid to trust the
future of this country In the hands of the
people.
I am getting older now: they no longer
nil me the boy orator. I am afraid they
will soon say I am too old to speak. But I
am Interested in the kind of Government
I am going to leave to my children, and If
I leave them a good Government, that Is
worth mora than a fortune to them. Let s
make the Government as good as we can
make It and lets make the name of the
American citizen as good as we can make
It It's make the Government Just to
the poor, to tne ricn ana iu
department of society, and whether we be
. ,. i ... will fosl that
young. mionie-Bgru or ou. -
such a Mernment Is not only a blessing
to the living, but that those who die will
feel that they leavo It as a rich Inheritance
to those who come after them.
Claims Vote of Many States.
tVe cannot tell Just now the size of the
sweeping victory we aiw going to win. but
Indications point to a very large one. Re
ports from Ohio. Iowa. Kansas. Wisconsin.
Indiana and Illinois will tell you that all
those states will vote the Democratic ticket.
If their reports are true we will have so
many votes that by the time we get to
the Allegheny Mountains we may not need
votes east of these mountains. I want it
to be a victory in which every part of this
country shall have a part. I want New
York to have a share too. If we wIt- It
Is going to be a people's victory. If we
win It Is going to be a people s Government
and a people's administration and I want
the Democrats of New York to say that
they helped to do It.
Although rain fell In torrents before
Mr. Bryan's arrival In the square of
wall about the. Market in Brooklyn this
afternoon, a great throng greeted his ar
rival there. 'He spoke in appreciation of
the efforts of Samuel Gompers In his be
half and said he would not permit It if
he did not believe the Democratic party
would repay It If he were elected.
"If I am elected." he said, "I want a
representative of the wage-earners In my
Cabinet In order that I may consult him
In matters concerning labor."
In conclusion, Mr. Bryan promised. If
elected, to call an extra session of Con
gress to consider the planks of the Demo
cratic platform.
BRYAN" SPEAKS AT 3 A. M.
Nebraska n Talks to Sew York News
papermen and Telegraphers.
NEW YORK, Oct. 27. For the first
time in their history at such an hour, the
gray walls of the old City Hall were
lighted up by red fire at 3 o'clock this
morning, when W. J. Bryan, bareheaded
and smiling, was Introduced from the
steps of the building to a big crowd of
night workers gathered there to greet
and to hear him speak on the Issues of
the campaign. Before the cheers ceased
the red fire went out. and Mr. Bryan
made his address In the dark, the few
street lights In the park giving hardly
enough light for visitors to see the form
of tho sp?aker against 'the dark walls
of the old building and the muffled forms
of those who accompanied him. The
crowd was composed chiefly of the em
ployes of the big newspaper offices on
Park Row, the telegraph offices and the
general postofflce across the park, while
here and there a yellow duster marked
a listener from one of the big markets
where work does not cease with dark
ness. A brass band entertained the
crowd with badly played patriotic airs
until the arrival of Mr. Bryan and his
party and a number of lesser lights In
the political field, who spoke briefly, but
neither the Interruptions nor the arrival
or speech of Mr. Bryan himself disturbed
the regular patrons of the park benches,
scores of whom slept on, undisturbed by
the unusual activity In their out-of-doors
sleeping place.
Mr. Bryan was accompanied by Na
tional Chairman Norman E. Mack and
by Mrs. Bryan and Mrs. Mack. Mr. Bryan
eulogized the workers of the country, and
spoke at some, length on the various Is
sues of the campaign.
Mr. Bryan said that to him the meeting
waa one of the most Interesting of the
campaign.
"If," he said, amid great cheering. "I
have gained a place In your confidence,
it Is simply because 1 have taken you
Into ny confidence. If you are willing
to trust me. It is only because I have
shown my willingness to trust you. I
do not say that the people will make no
mistakes. What I say Is that the people
have a right to make their own mis
takes nnd nobody has a God-given right
to make them them for them. I do not
mean to say that I am not liable to mis
takes. I do say that I do not know of
any reason why I should make a mistake
atralnst the people or look at questions
except from the standpoint of the people.
"We believe It will never be safe to
have monopolies until God sends us
angels to take charge of them, and from
our experience with those in charge, we
are Inclined to believe that they come not
from above, but from below."
Taking up the labor question, he de
tailed the planks of the Denver platform
and said he could not understand why
Mr. Taft was so bitter against trial by
Jury. He hopes the time would come
when employers would not threaten their
employes, when every employer would
recognize that the responsibility of citi
zenship rested upon the employe as well
as upon the employer.
BRYAN BUBBLES WITH HOPE
Expects to Carry Own Precinct, City
and State.
NEW YORK. Oct 27. William J.
Bryan expects to carry his own pre
cinct next Tuesday for the first time in
three campaigns. "You know that tho
Republicans are saying that I never
carried my own precinct," said Mr.
Bryan to tne members of the National
Democratic Committee. "But the Re
publicans have not told that when I
moved Into that precinct there were
ten Republicans to two Democrats and
that now there are only two Repub
licans to one Democrat. This year I
am going to carry my own precinct.
I am. going to carry the City of Lin
coln and I am going to carry the State
of Nebraska."

Mystery of Millionaire's Mil
lions Unfolded.
FAMILY SKELETON VIEWED
Poverty of Cnrxons and Inner Story
of Young Ivelter's Wheat Cor
ner Become Public for
the First Time.
CHICAGO. Oct. 27. Revelations, show
ing the poverty of Lord and Lady Curzon,
who was Mary Lelter, after their return
from India, where they had ruled over
minion of suhifvcta In regal splendor, and
disclosure of the actual sum, J9.000.000, that
"Joe" Leiter dropped In his iamous
plunge In the wheat pit, were made public
for the first time yesterday In tne suii.
of Hugh Crabba against the Zeigler CoaJ
Company, on trial in Judge Bberhart's
court.
The result of the attempted corner in
wheat Is. that Leiter's allowance is only
J&4.000 a year, while both bis sisters are
receiving more than twice this amount.
Lady Curzon's poverty followed her to her
grave. This much has come to light:
"When she and Lord Curzon . returned to
England they could not open their mag
nificent London house, Carlton House
terrace, but were forced to take rooms in
a hotel and live Inexpensively while
awaiting for funds to arrive from Amer
ica. India Home Too Costly.
In a few months Lady Curzon died, but
in a letter which was produced in court
vesterday she wrote that until she knew
whether Bhe was to receive the full in
come from her father's estate she could
not open her town house. She asked that
all of her mall be sent there, but it is
known that the house was rented and her
mall was forwarded to her hotel.
The final financial' difficulties of the
Curzons were caused by the immense
drains mace upon Lady Curzon's purse by
their estatllshment in India. Lord Curion
was without private means and his salary
as Viceroy was a mere bagatelle when It
came to paying for the expenses of living
up to the style his position demanded. At
this time, however. Lord Curzon has suf
ficient money for himself and hie chil
dren's needs. He and his children are re
ceiving g.000 a year from the Levi Z.
Lelter estate, besides the Income from
Jl.700.000 placed in trust.
Joseph Leiter receives J4500 a month
from the estate. When he dropped J9.000,
000 In the wheat pit his father came to
his rescue and assumed 17,000,000 of the
burden. When he died, however, he
charged each one of his children up with
the money they had received from him
before his death. Therefore "Joe" Lelter
has to pay interest on H.000.000 that he
dropped In the wheat pit. Lady Suffolk,
who was Miss Daisy Lelter, receives an
income of $126,000 a year, as also does her
sister, Mrs. Colon Campbell, formerly
Nancy Leiter.
Feared Spies.
Lady Curzon's letter in which she told
of her financial straits waa written to
Hugh Crabbe in February. 1907.
A short time after this Lady Curzon
died and Lord Curzon received a settle
ment in part of the Leitef estate. It ap
pears he was paid too much money and
because of this he was Informed that his
income from the estate would be forward
ed to him less J10.700. His lordship ex
pressed hia "horror" at this and said so
plainly In a letter to Mr. Crabbe.
Crabbe says that the trouble between
himself and Joe Lelter, which finally led
to the young millionaire dismissing him
from the employ of the Leiter estate,
arose over the fact that Joe Leiter knew
there was a spy In- the offices of the es
tate who was keeping Lady Curzon in
formed regarding the management of the
Lelter millions.
Leiter thought that the spy was Crabbe
when he saw the letter from Lady Cur
zon addressed In his sister's handwriting
to Crabbe.
An attempt made to get these letters
before a jury by Attorney Ellas Mayer,
who Is representing Mr. Crabbe. was
promptly checkmated by Attorney Miller
for the defense. The attempt was made
while W. J. Warr, Mr. Crabbe's success
or, was on tha witness stand.
