Mattoon. 111.. Oct. 23. What is considered the battle-ground of the campaign was entered by Bryan this morning. It has been understood that Bryan would put up the best fight he could when the Prairie state was reached. Eighteen places were on the itinerary for today. A few more will be added before night' just for good. measure. - ;' ' Illinois "democratic politicians" met Bryan at Terre Haute last night and today escorted him. Railroad and Warehouse Commissioner W. S. Can- trell took charge of tbe train. Dan ville was the first stop. From a stand near the courthouse Bryan spoke to an assemblage of thousands. Wiien Bryan quoted Congressman Joe Cannon in support of the freo-sil. ver doctrine, the -.crowd gave noisy evidence of approval. The quotation from Cannon was: - "Again tbe senate amendment lakes away the free coinage of silver and leaves the free coinage of gold. Now, silver is just as much the money of the constitution as gold, and should re ceive the same treatment iu every res pect as gold." Bryau continued: "We are asking today for exactly what Cannon asked for 18 years ago, but ho tells you it would wrong the country to have now what be wanted then. Butletmeread further: 'And when jou discriminate against one of the procious metals io favor of the other, by restricting the use of one, as contemplated by the sen ate amendment as to silver, you had far better fetter the use of money in measuring values and making ex changes of the commodities of the country and fail just that far to give necessary relief and assistance to' tbe business of the country that wise legis lation should and would give.' That is right, my friends; when you dis criminate against silver and fe'ter sil ver you are simply trying to put in power a few men to corner the money market and hold the rest of mankind t.t their mercy." .

London, Oct. 23, Afternoon news papers agree in saying that the con dition in the New York money market poiuts t further imports of gold. The Westminister Gazette says: "It is absolutely necessary, in order that no alarm be experienced, that gold should continue t be imported, we think tbe immediate future of the market is moat uncertaiu, but after the residential election it is believed the alue of money will return to a lower level."

Indications this morning are that there will .bo do more fatalities as the result of Sunday's collision on the St. jouis & San Fran cisco railroad near this city. All the injured as far as known are recovering. II. F. Clark, trainmaster of the road, says; "I feel safe in saying that the blame for the accident lies entirely with our couductor and engineer on the excur sion train, George Atwood and Joseph Dry-den. They are both good men, and have seen years of service in the railway business. Atwood was b. side himself with grief at the awful results of his mistake. When I asked Atwood about tbe wreck, he naid he was busy collecting tickets when the train Jiiissyd through Spring Parle. He must have otie on to the scene of the collision wit hou- k no v inu- where he was on the track.

BIG SHIP OMLSG The Oregon Has Left San Francisco and Will Probably be at Portland Soon. A Level-Headed Preacher Prevents a Ter rible Accideut iu a hurch The Bodie of Three Victims of the Arairo Recovered. I St. I oris, Oct. 25. Shortly before 10 o'clock this morning, two passen ger trains on the St. Louis & San Francisco railroad, going in opposite directions, collided nearly opposite Windsor station, 13 miles from this city, instuntly killing eight persons and injuring a large number, three of whom will probably die. The killed are all of St. Louis. Their names are: . Adolph Hobl, engineer of the accom modation train. Charles Mobine. Conrad Kuntz. C. C. Blevins. H. T. Hall. Barney MeKenna, in charge of the refres-hments. Miss Maud McfCennu, aged 11, Lis daughter. Twenty-one persi ns were more or less irijnr.fi. The collision occurred between the teeoi.d M-etion of an excursion bound west, arid tho 'Frisco Valley Park ac commodation. From what can be learned at Ibis hour, the accident was the result of diso!)fdieiice or neglect of orders on the part of exclusion crew, whoshou d have remained at Spriug Park for or ders, and let tbe accommodation train through. The excursion train was the secoi.d section of a special bound for St. James, Mo., 100 miles west of St. Louis, where the Missouri Home for aged veterans was dedicated today under the auspices of the G. A. It, and Woman's Relief Corps. The first section had gone through .safely, and the second section, which consisted of 11 coaches heavily laden with G. A. R. men, their wives and children, left St. Louis about 9 o'clock. -According to J. D. Dishman, the telegraph j ODerator and 8tation a?ent at SprlDg Park, it should have stopped at that place for oi ders. Instead of doing so, the second section passed by the station, and soon after met the accom modation coming down the grade at full speed. . ' ' ' Eugin8ef,",iIobT, of the accomodation, was not aware the second suction was on the road, and in trying to make the switch at Kirkwood, crashed into the ill-fated train in a cut 'just 13 miles from the St. Louis union station. There was only one car, a combina tion baggage and coach, on Engineer Hobl's train, but the collision was ter rific, both engines being demolished and a number of cars telescoped. The wreckage was piled high on tbe track, and above the sound of escaping steam could be heard the cries of the fright" ened and injured passengers. The accommodation train consisted an engine, tender, baggage car and of two coaches, in which there were only five passengers. ' The engine and ten der were wrecked, but the other three cars were not damaged. It is due to the lightness of this train that the ac cident was no- worse than it was. At IUini ls College. Jacksonville, 111., Oct. 26. Per haps tbe noisiest demonstration ever given any one in the chapel of Illinois college was accorded William Jennings Bryan this morning by the students of his alma mater. - His address, while it was a defense of the double-standard theory of finance, was so diplomatically given that no student could take offense. The same simple exercises in which Bryan participated six years as a student were gone through with - this morning. John F. Bradley, president of Illinois college, presided. The exercises opened with the reading of tbe suiiptures by Dr. Bradley, re sponsive reading, Bible lesson and prayer by Dr T. P. Carter, professor of natural science. .Then Dr. Bradley made a short introductory address, saying that of tbe distinguished alumni of Illinois college who had reflected honor upon that institution, no one stands, and no one ever stood in such public distinction as the guest of this morning. He said that with- tbe duties and engagements which press so heavily upon the distinguished visitor, it was not unworthy that he should pause and tui n aside for a little visit to tbe scene of old . associations, to greet his ola Mends and permit tbem to greet him and lay his honors at the feet of his alma mater. The applause which followed the introduction was hearty and of long duration. After Bryan's address Dr. Bradley announced that in honor of the presence of the distinguished guest the students would observe tbe rest of the day as a holiday, and called upon the members of the Sigma to escort Mr. and Mrs. Bryan to a carriage and act as a guard of honor through the grounds of the institution. Members of that fraternity drew up in line, and singing a fraternal song, marched on either side of tbe carriage. When the vehicle containing the guests reached the gates, the students Dade the nominee and his wife God speed and supplemented the farewell with long aad loud college yells. Prevented a Panic. Chicago, Oct. 25. By rare presence of mind. Rev. Dr. James Vila Blake prevented a panic and the possible awful results of a fire, which broke out just as the morning service was be ginning at the Third Unitarian church today, and which destroyed the' main part of the building. When the pastor ; took his place in tbe pulpit, his at I tention was drawn to smoke in the lobby leading to the Sunday-school room. He remained standing until the organist bod ceased playing, and then requested the congregation to re- Highest of all in Leavening ABSOLUTELY PURE tire quietly by the rear exits. His manner so reassured those assembled that a panic was averted. The church was entirely destroyed. The loss is $25,000. TBE OKLUOIS COMING. Battle-ship Left Saa Francisco Sunday For a Short Cruls San Francisco, Oct. 25. The battle ship Oregon steamed out to sea today for the first time since her famous trial trip. Nothing could be learned pos itively of her destination. But it Js common gossip that the prime object of the trip is to test her batteries, from the big guns down to the smallest, and to try ber in all the theoretical man euvers that could be anticipated in a regular engagement.

Sir. Montgomery Reviewed the Money (Jaestiou fr'roua a Business Standpoint. The assertion that all the moneved men of the state are supporting Mc- Kinley was refuted by Hon. J. P. Montgomery at the Baldwin opura house last night. The meeting was in charge of Dr. Sanders, who Id a brief address, in which he announced he was a republican, though not a follower of the gold standard, intro duced the speaker amid deafening cheers. Mr. Montgomery wasted no time In introductory remarks, but came square ly to tbe point of the questions at issue. He announced on the outset be was a republican, always had been and always would be, but he was a bimetalist, and when bis party de- clared for the single gold standard, he refused to follow its lead. - . Taking up the history of the nation from 1873 to the present time, he showed that the value of all classes of property, except money, .had steadily , , . . . i . , , , , riAiiiilaliiH anri In.

The recent rise in the price of wheat, he showed to be the result of tbe famine in India and other great wheat producing countries, tbe same as it was in 1880. Mr. Montgomery's talk to the bank ers and merchants was a telling one. His argument is that no branch of business can be prosperous so long as the producers are depressed, thot mer chants cannot sell goods unless the farmers receive just compensation for their labor, and that banks cannot do a profitable business unless theirclients, the producers, are prosperous. Tbe only way the latter can tw made pros perous is by increasing the circulating medium, and this can be accomplished only by opening our mints to silver. Mr. Montgomery is a successful busi ness man, possessing considerable wealth, and although he is not a fluent speaker, bis high standibg in commer cial circles and bis recognized ability as a financier, cause all . to carefully weigh his opinions.
