Addresses.
BRYAN, THE BOY OKATOR, REPLIES
lie Make Iloqneiit Defense of the
Chicago l'latform and the Dem
ocratic Party.
Kkw Yokk, Aug. 12. Wiliiain Jen
nings Bryan, of Nebraska, and Arthur
Sewall, of Maine, were tonight formally
notified of their nomination by the
Democratic party for the offices of presi
dent and vice-president, at a meeting in
the big Madison-Square garden, forming
a notable political event, and a remark
able climax to the remarkable tour of
the presidential candidate across half
the continent. An army of unnum
bered thousands filled the streets and
crowded about the building in the hope
of securing admission. In the hall,
which was like a fiery furnace, Bryan
spoke to 20,000 people for nearly two
hoars. His' address dealt almost en
tirely with the financial question ; was
more argumentative and less eloquent
than his historic Chicago speech, and
only in a closing appeal to the citizens
of New -York did he speak in the strain
in which he bad captured the Chicago
convention. He was surrounded by
many of the silver leaders. The Demo
cratic leaders, with the exception of for
nter State Treasurer Danforth, who pre
sided over the meeting, and Congress
man William Sulzer, who organized the
first Bryan club in the state, were not
present.
Mr. Sewell 'spoke briefly after Bryan
and was heartily cheered. Governor
Stone, of Missouri, delivered the notifi
cation speech, which declared that the
work of the Chicago convention was the
work of the plain people, and that Bryan
was their candidate.
After the notification meeting, Mr.
Bryan was driven to the Hotel Barthol
di, facing Madison square; where he
spoke again on a balcony, with Mr.
Sewall and Airs. Bryan, who shared with
her husband all the honors and atten
tion of the day. This second audience,
standing in the streets, seemed to be
composed mostly of workingmen, and
Mr. Bryan exhorted them to support
the cause of free silver with one of the
most effective and open speeches which
he has made in the campaign. Lesser
lights of the party and single-tax men
held six overflow meetings on the streets
around Madison square, . and made
speeches during .the garden meeting.
Altogether, the opening " of the TJemo
crt,tic campaign made an exceedingly
lively night. ,
The police lines were formed about 9
o'clock, by 1000 picked men. As the
hours rolled on the crowd increaeed so
rapidly that this large force was almost
powerless to handle it. Twice the 40
000 men, women and children who were
cheering and surging to get closer broke
through the ranks, and with difficulty
were driven back. Only one person was
reported injured a marvelous fact, as
the enormous crowd jammed the streets
for many blocks. '
Bryan Has Laryngitis.
Niw Yokk, An. 12. W. J. Bryan,
the Democratic nominee for the presi
dency, is suffering today from an attack
of acute laryngitis. A specialist who
was called to attend him, hopes Mr.
Bryan will be able to deliver his speech
at the notification meeting this evening.
A Free-Thought Congress.
Chicago, Aug. 12. Liberals and free
thinkers from all parts of the world are
preparing for a congress of liberals in
Chicago, November 13, 14 and 15. R. E.
Ingersoll and all the prominent Ameri
can liberals are expected. Mrs. Besant
will come if possible. G. W. Foote and
Charles Watts, of England, have already
promised to be on hand.
The intention is to have a reunion
and jollification of all freethinkers, and
every country on earth has been sent an
invitation to be present..

point of reaching an agreement "to save
both Armenia and Crete from Turkish
oppression without disturbing the peace
of Europe," which agreement, it was ad
ded, would involve the presence of the
Russian army in Armenia and the Brit
ish fleet at Crete "to guarantee Turkish
compliance with the terms of agree
ment." It is stated on the other hand
that there is great discord among the
powers as to the measures that should
be adopted regarding Crete, Russia, it is
further asserted, is showing a marked
disinclination to allow great pressure to
be brought to bear upon the sultan.'
A CRUSADE OF BLOOD,
Japanese Troops Against "atires of
, " Kormosa.
Victoria, Aug. 12. From far Formosa
where for upwards of a year Japanese
troops have been vainly striving to crush
out the seeds of post-bellum opposition
to Japanese innovation?, comes a story
which, for barbarous cruelty, and defiant
violation of all ethics of civilization, has
fortunately few parallels in history.
The terrible tale of rapine, murder and
wanton 'cruelty reached here by the
steamer Empress of Japan, and fully
bears out the statement on the situation
in Formosa given publicity by the Rev.
Dr. Mackay on his return to that island
six months ago.
Other equally credible correspondents
are now the witnesses against. Japan,
and the bcrden of their arraignment is '
that, 'seeing neither fame nor profit to i
be gained in the Subjugation of the For-
reiosans by the arts of modern warfare,
recognized as legitimate by civilized
nations, the Japanese troops sent to the
island have embarked in a crusade of
blood, their object being to crush out all
signs of discontent by as far as possible
exterminating the native population.
In this campaign there were no for
eign powers to make protest, no foreign
press representatives to herald to the
world the atrocities, the telling of which
would briog upon Japan, the contempt
of all enlightened people.
Says the Tainanfu representative of
the China Mail :
"As a result, the policy of extermina
tion has been zealously pursued from the
beginning of the campaign, and what,
with the destruction of their crops, the
burning of their villages, the desecra
tion of the graves of their loved ones,
the violation of their wives and daugh-
ters, and the butchery of their innocent !
children, the people are driven to the ;
laBt expedients of desperation." !
ON TRIAL.
He Almost Vrectpltatea
a Itow In the
Courtroom.
San Francisco, Aug. 12. David Nea
gle pleaded not guilty to assaulting A.
J. Collins this morning. The slayer of
Judge Terry was not represented by
counsel, and that fact nearly led to a
sensational scene before the conclusion
ot the proceedings.
W. C. Cubery and other witnesses!
testified' that Neagle' was about the
Southern Pacific general offices and
brutally banged Collins' head against
the railroad. Prosecuting Attorney
Reed tried to develop testimony show
ing that Neagle was connected with the
Southern Pacific as "bouncer." Neagle
violently objected to this line of ex
amination. Reed addressed the court,
saving :
"If this man is employed as a hired
ruffian, it is competent to show it."
"I am not a .hired ruffian," shouted
Neagle, advancing toward Reed.

None Kut Ayer's at the World's Fair
Ayer's Sarsaparilla enjoys the extra
ordinary distinction of having been the
only blood purifier allowed on exhibit at
the world's fair, Chicago. Manufact
urers of other sarsaparillas sought by
every means to obtain a showing of their
goods, but they were all turned away
under the application of the rule for
bidding the entry of patent, medicines
and nostrums. The decision of the
world's fair authorities in favor of Ayer's
Sarsaparilla was in effect as follows:
"Ayer's Sarsaparilla Is not a patent
medicine. It does not belong to the
list of nostrums. It is here on its
merits."

' Reduction In .Railroad Fares.
. As there will be numerous requests
for reduced rates on account of political
meetings during the coming contest, it
has been decided tba! in order to treat
all parties alike, a one fare rate will be
made by the O. R. & S. Co. for various
meetings of this character.
This of course is intended only for oc
casions where there is sufficient number
to justify a reduction in rates. This is
done so that there wil' be no partiality
in favor of any one party.
