Judge Thurman presided. Letters were read from Gen. Harrison and Chief Justice Puller expressing thelr regret at not being able to attend. Judge ‘Thurman marched in the procession on foot. Ex- Congressman Jona F. Follett, of Cinciunatl, closed his Welcome address by introducing Judge Thur- man, Whose name was received with long-contin— ued and tumultuous applause. His remarks, says & special to the Baltimore “Sun, were devoted Mostly to reminiscences of the ba and the prac- tice of the profession in the early history of the state, The speaker pald a high tribute to the legal mm, which he said had marched al- most {a a solid column in favor of freedom and liberty. “When despotism prevalls lawyers are Rot allowed to speak.

Then be sits down at mis desk, rumples his hair diligently for a few minutes, loosens his collar and tackles the pile of letters on the desk. Mr. Quay has a marked ability for getting Yhrough a large aiaount, of nce in a Short time. His admirers say that, like Lord Macaulay, becan run his eye over a closely- Written page and master its contents. He is a Yery methodical man, He has a regular type- Written form for answering the hundreds of let- Yers that come weekly from chairmen of county committees, describing their work. ‘This form cousists of congratulatory words, winding up with ‘an injunction to keep up the work. Many levters of advice come; in fact, Mr. Quay bas found that every republican’ politicfan who has written to him knows more about ‘4 national cam- mm than he does. ‘hese letters do not make im angry. He siiply sends out another Written form, expressing heartfelt thanks for the suggestions offered and a determination to profit by the advice.

Mr. Quay 1s somewhat of a diplomatist. On the rare occasions when he ad- its reporters to his room he is all smiles and genlality. When questioned about any political moves he looks cuilditke and bland, but, walle apparently unburdening his heart to the scri he manages to Say not a single thing that coul De written up. | Indeed, ine sopsrters bave Sound him an expert in saying no a mat words. Me. Quay is Lot over popular with bis COL leagues on the national committee. He hasa way of asking their advice on all important questions, Listening to them With great attention, and then Pursuing a line of action on which he had deter- mined before talking to them. Still, everybody about headquarters “has confidence in him. His sphinx-like Lace and his silent ways impress every. one with the idea that some great plan is always revolving in Lis brain and that he will prove equal any emergency. Chiirman Brice, of the democratic cam] commitvee, 1s a Very different man. There is not ing sphinx-like about him. He enters headquar- ters through the front door, stops in the reading- TOom and press-room frequently to greet those he knows, and receives many callers in his own room, He is like Mr. Quay in being an expert in the mat- ler of correspoudence, and he, too, has to bear with piles of letters of advice, "But he does not send ¢ircular replies. He has atare facility of dicta- on, and his stenographer 1s kept busy. He 18 at work nearly all day at his desk, Talking does not disturb him.

Mr. Brice has some amusing characteristics. Like most men of a nervous tempeFament, he must keep his body ec- liye in unison with the workings of the brain. While dictating he ts usually twirling a cane, Sometimes so Violently that his visitors move nervously in their chairs. ‘Then he keeps bis feet iu motion by crossing and recrossing them on a chair, Frequently hesprings to hls feet suddenly, takes a couple of turns in the room, ruses off 16 the document-room and returns, resuming the dic. {ation just at the proper place.” He used to let off hs surplus energy Uy tylng knots tu his watcn chain, but he broke so many chains that he finally turned to the cane for exercise. —— eee. ‘BE TALKED ABOUT PROTECTION TO A DELEGATION YES- TERDAY—HIS PATHETIC ADDRESS TO THE WAR FRIG- onzns, Gen. Harrison recetved four delegations yester- day. The veterans of the 7th Indiana Cavairy Were introduced and shook hands with the General and Mrs Harrison, Gen. Harrison addressed the delegation from Iroquois County, IL, and La Porte, Ind., as follows: “In previous campaigns Wwe have not quite known where our adversaries stood. Now we do know.

Do our detaocratic irlends propose ‘to give the banks the free use of it until our bonds mature; or do they propose to reduce our annual Jacome below our annual expenditure by a revision of the tariff until this surplus 18 used, and then revise the tariff again to restore the equilibrium?” (Great applause.) Gen. Harrison subsequently addressed the sur- Vivors of the Second and Ninth Indiana cavalry. A PATHETIC TALK TO WAR PRISONERS, An Indianapolis dispatch to we New York Heratd says that Gen. Harrison was greatly af fected by the address of Gen. Powell, the spokes. man for the delegates of the National Association Union ex-Prisouers of War, who called on im Tuesday night. He addressed them as follows: “1 aun always Louched When I meet either with those Wuo stood near about me in the service of those who shared the genera) comradeship of the war.

He spoke highly {n favor of the inland navigation project, recently mentioned in Tae Stax, and said that his recent tip on the steam launch Vixen from New York to ‘Norfolk was taken for the purpose of examining the inland waterways along the coast. He will make a report to the Navy Department, although his trip was an informal one. “The need of an inland system of canals slong the coast ts undoubted,” he said. “The strategetic naval waterways ina war would be Long Island by holding which New York and Brooklyn couid be protected, and the Delaware and Chesa- a Bay, commanding the approaches to Phila- Iphia, Baitimore, W: fm, and Norfolk.
