END OF HIS JOURNEY Arrival of the Bryan Party at New York City, READY FOR THE NOTIFICATION Incidents of the Afternoon of the Last Day's Run. eS KEPT OUT BY RAILWAY GATES ee When Mr. Bryan and his party reached New York last right he reached the end of the journey which he began four days before at his home, at Lincoin, Neb., and which has been a succession of speeches, handshaking, brass band music, fireworks, presentation of flowers, marching of cam- paign clubs, hurrahs and other such inci- dents which usually mark the movements of a candidate for President of the United States. Welcome at Harrisburg. The large depot sheds, the adjacent plat- form and streets and tops of the cars at Harirsburg, Pa., were filled with crowds densely packed when the train conveying Mr. and Mrs. Bryan and other members of the party reached that city yesterday afternoon. Mr. and Mrs. Bryan and Mr. Bland were upon the platform of one of the forward cars when the train swept past the depot, and the crowds broke at first for the rear car. Then it became known that the car containing the Bryan party was forward, and the people surged that way. Mr. Bryan shook hands with many of those who persisted in getting on the steps of the car, and later the ordeal was all gone over again. Mr. Bryan declined to speak, but he put in his time handshaking, while the crowd cheered again and again at nothing in par- ticular except Bryan. This was continued until the train left for the east. There were upward of 5,000 in the crowd. The Stop at Lancaster. The train bearing Mr. Bryan and party on their way to New York stopped at Lan- caster for only a few minutes. Mr. William Hayes Gricr introduced Mr. Bland, wlio spoke from the rear end of the car to a dense crowd of people around him. Mr. Bland spoke as follows: “Fellow-citizens: If what I have seen in Pennsylvania on this trip is an indication of what you will do in November, this state will go for free silver and W. J. Bryan for President. Of all the people interested in silver, the agricultural people and the la- boring pecple are the ones who have the most at stake. For once in our history, at least, the great masses of the American people have something to fight for more than they have in the past, for our issues in the past have been shaped by monopo- lies, trusts and combines. But the issues of today are shaped by the great masses of the American people In their own interests. We have no moneyed classes in this cam- paign, but we shail have to rely upon the masses of the American labor-producing people of this country to oppose the com- bined power of money in this contest. Th fight is on, and we have got to win it. We hope at some future day that these ques- tions may be discussed before you, and that you will have an opportunity of reading the speech of Mr. Bryan to be delivered to- morrow night in New York.” (Cheering.) Mr. Bland’s remarks were interrupted and cut short by the moving away of the train. There was no stop between Lan- caster and Philadelphia. At Philadelphia, A large and enthusiastic crowd succeeded in foreing Its way through the Pennsylva- nia railway station gates at Philadelphia when the train bearing Mr. Bryan and his party rolled into the station on time at 547 p.m. The regulations of the rail- road company permit only those having tickets to pass througn the gates. The crowd of Bryan enthusiasts became so great, however,. that the officials ordered | that a few hundred be admitted to the train platform, in order to relieve the con- gested condition in the station. Both Mr. and Mrs. Bryan appeared on the rear plat- form of their car, and shook hands with all who could come within reach. No speeches were made. Several handsome bouquets of roses were presented to Mrs. Bryan. A number of Philadelphia democrats re- mained on the train and escorted Mr. Bryan and his party as far as Trenton. Several men who were delegates to the Chi- cago convention were included in the num- ber. They all assured Mr. Bryan of their active support. After a stop of five min- utes the train rolled out of Broad street station en route to New York. Crowd Kept Outside the Gate: There was no stop between Philadelphia and Trenton. A crowd of about one hun- dred gathered on the platform and cheered lustily as the train came to a stop in the station. A great crowd was prevented from greeting the candidate by the failure of the railroad officials to open the gate lead- ing to the train platform. Mr. and Mrs. Bryan shook hands with all who could get near them in the limited time, and after a stop of one minute the train proceeded. Just as the train was pulling out Mrs. Bryan threw a big bouquet of roses into the crowd. This was eagerly pulled to pieces by men anxious to obtain a souvenir of the oveasion. Arrival at New York. Mr. Bryan arrived at New York with a swollen right hand, which had been wrung by thousands of hands hardened and strengthened by gaily toll. His voice was hearse and husky, but as he refrained from using it yesterday and was applying re- storatives, it was expected that he woull be able to make its tones resound through- out the big Madison Square Garden to- night. Mrs. Bryan's right hand was also somewhat sore after four days of hand- shaking. Upon his arrival at Jersey City Mr. Bryan was met by Chairman Jones of the democratic national committee as he step- ped off the train. The crowd which gath- ered at the railroad station to greet the Bryan party was not as large as had been expected, a thousand people in all, prob- ably, paying their way to the ferry house in order to see the orator from the west. But it was a crowd that made the fifty Jersey City policemen display every bit of their ability in subduing it, and which was enthusiastic to the core. Awaiting the Nominee. Awalting the arrival of the train the crowd amused itself by watching Chair- man Jones, Vice Presidential Nominee Se- wall, William P. St. John and National Committeeman Tomlinson of Indiana eat- ing a modest repast in the railroad restau- rant. A large majority of the crowd had purchased ferry tickets, entitling them to Passage to New York city, and it was evi- dent from their actions afterward that they all expected to ride on the same boat with the Bryan party. One anxious indi- vidual inquired of Sergeant-at-Arms Oliver of the democratic national committe “Does he go in a special boat?” Mr. Oliver responded with a contempt that almost withered the questioner: “No; he's a democrat.” And:so he was. When Mrs. Bryan alighted Mr. Tomlin- scn took her in charge and hurried her along the private passageway which the police had laid out for the party to pass through. She was hardly noticed by the crowd, and iook the first boat out of the slip, while her husband and the remainder of the party followed behind the struggling police to a second boat. Horses Balked. When the boat reached the dock In New York Capt. Cross, with a cordon of police, held the crowd aboard the boat for a few minutes while Mr. Bryan, Mr. Setvall and the remainder of the party entered a car- riage in waiting. When they got outside the ferry gates they found 500 more per- sons waiting, and although the police made all diligent effort to allow the car- riage to proceed, it was stopped several times, the last time being when the horses, annoyed or seared by the applause and shouting, balked. Besides Mr. Bryan and Mr. Sewall, Chair- man Jones and Mr. St. John occupied the carriage. The national chairman became a little frightened at the behavior of the horses and left the carriage. The remain- der of the party sat quietly until the ani- mals were ready to proceed. At Mr. St. John’s house, on 34th street, there was another gathering of citizens, who applauded vociferously. Neither Mr. nor Mrs. Bryan showed much fatigue after thier long journey. Mr. Bryan wore a black alpaca coat and a silver-colored Alpine hat. Mrs. Bryan wore a dark green traveling dress, and a black hat with flower trimmings. oe MORRILL RENOMINATED. Gov. Kansas Republicnns Indorse the St. Louis FP form, The Kansas republican convention to nominate a complete state ticket met at noon yesterday at Topeka. Chairman Le- land called the convention to order. Rev. J. H. Bright made a prayer. The friends of Maj. Morrill presented for tempora chairman C. W. Shcidon. The oppositior named J. F.

A telegram has been received by the Ca- nadian Indian department from its agent at Victoria, B. C., announcing the alleged sighting by Indians of the balloon of Prof. Andree, who was to have started on hi: trip from Spitzbergen early this month. The dispatch is as follows: VICTORIA, B. C., August 11.—Creditable information received by Agent Lomas from two Indian parties, separated at long dis- tances at the time of observation, that the Andree balloon had been sighted at lati- tude 55.15, longitude 27.40, pursuing a direct northerly course. (Signed) A. W. VOWELL. In May last the government in Ottawa sent out a proclamation to the Indian agents and Hudson Bay officials all over the north and northwest, instructing them to be on the lookout for the balloon and immediately report its appearance. This is evidently a bona fide reply. A. W. Vowell, by whom the dispatch to the deputy superintendent general is sign- ed, is the Indian superintendent for British Columbia, and is stationed in Victoria. W. H. Lomas is the agent in charge of the coast Indians of the Cowichan agency, with headquarters in Quamichan, B. C. These Indians are at this time of year largely engaged in fishing in the Frazer and Skeena rivers for the salmon cannerte Could Not Possibly Be Andrce’s, ‘The New York Herald says: The bal- loon which the Indians report they saw could not under any circumstances be the Andree balloon, because a dispatch from Vadse, Norway, dated August §, 4 p.m sald that hopes were entertained that by tomorrow (August 9), the atmospheric con. ditions would be such as to allow of the departure, from Spitzbergen, of Prof. 8. A. Andree in his balloon on his search for the nerth pole. if the conditions were favor able Andree and his party sailed in the ballocn last Sunday. The balloon reported from the upper far west could not have been scen by the In- dians under a month ago. They were in the vicinity of western British Colurabia, one party being in the Cariboo mountain region and the other in the neighborhood of the Atna mountains of the Rocky moun- tain system. The two Indian parties had to travel about three weeks before they reached a post where they could make their reports. ‘The British Indian agent to whom the re- ports were made had to make about a ten days’ trio on horseback before he could reach a point from where he could report to the authorities. Consequently, this would place that bal- loon out of all possibility of being the An- dree balloon, which did not start until Sun- day last, if the records of its starting are correct. Since it is settled that the balloon seen ‘by the Indians is not the Andree bal- loon the question arises—what balloon could it be? Balloon Over Winnipeg Lake. A mysterious balloon, with occupants, was reported to have passed over Winni- peg lake at 6 o'clock on the evening of July 1 last, and those who saw it sald that it was going due west. The distance between the points where the Indians saw their balloon and Winnipeg lake is about 1,800 miles, and the former is due west of the lake. Thus, allowing for the lapse in tume, the date fixtures and localities, it is highly improbable that the balloon viewed by the Indians is the same one reported from Winnipeg lake on July 1. This ballocn may have been some lost one which ts wandering about over British America. coe Gen. Harrixon to Take the Stump. Ex-President Harrison has decided to soon take the stump in behalf of sound money. This determination he announced by letter to Gen. Powell Clayton, which the latter received in New York yesterday. The letter is dated August 10, and in it ex-President Harrison states that he will make a speech in New York city at any time during the month of August which ae republican national committee may .se- ject. Gen. Clayton at once telegraphed his ac- ceptance of the offer, and fixed August 27 as the date., The hall has not yet been se- lected. 7? ——+e+_____ Robbery by an Exchange Clerk. It has developed that Harry K. Brown, exchange clerk of the Bullion and Exchange Bank of Carson, Nev., who left that city suddenly about two months ago, is a de- faulter to a large extent. He robbed the in- stitution in which he was employed of nearly $75,000. He is believed to be in Mex- ico at present. He ieft his wife and chil- dren in Carson. RAILROAD RATE WAR! Hearing on the Injunction Case Anxiously Awaited. ee MUCH DEPENDS ON THE DECISION Rumor That Pullman Charges Are to Be Reduced. es, FOR AN ACCIDENT HOSPITAL As the time approaches for the hearing of the case of the Southern-Seaboard Air Line before Judge Simonton at Spartan- burg, 8. C., and which is set for argu- ment Saturday next, some very intcrest- ing facts are being brought to light Among the most important of these is an agreement made many years ago between the York River Line, now owned by the Southern Railway Company, and the Bay Line, which is controlled by the Seaboard Air Line, the chief feature of which was a penalty forfeit of $75,000 to be levied in the event of an encroachment by one on the other's territory. When the purpose of the Southern’s decision to establish Its Norfolk line was promulgates, the Sea beard notified the Southern that f:s latest act was a violation of the agreement in question, and this was followed by a de- mand for the $75,000 forfeit. To this Pres- ident Reuben Foster of the York River Line replied in a letter stating the agree- ment referrea to by the Seaboard people was annulled July 9, 18st It has also been disclosed that the Penn- sylvaria Railway Company, through Vice President’ Thomson, heen taking a very active part in pending coniro- the versy and that he has made a number of attempts to bring the Southern board people together wi and Sea- nha view of hav- ing the issues involved straightened out amicably. Mr. Thomson failed in his ef- forts, however, bui up to a few Jays ago he entertained bope that the treubles be- tween the contending roads could be a‘l- justed in a manner honorable to all, replying to a cemmuuicatio: from Pre: Gent Hofiman of the Seaboard, in whi the Southern’s given, he aga’ offered his services to promote harmony To this Mr. Hoffman answered that much as he regretted it, Mr. Thomson's services i H could not be utilized under the circum- stances, ‘The pr dangerous aspect of the railroad industry in the south is a source cf great anxiety to every one interested in these properties, and while the controversy is at present virtually confined to the Southern and Seabourd Air Line Companies, every line within the southern competitive territory is vitally intere: The Southern Railway Company has fol- lowed a steady course in the present ficulty with the Seaboard by refusing to Withdraw its steamer line between Balti- more and Norfolk, and the latter ha parently been equally determined to a war in rates. The serious conditior which as a result confronts all the south- ern lines is keenly felt and efforts are be- ing made to get both the Southern and the poard to compromise for te sake of peac Effect of an Injunction, There is, however, another featur case which is giving railway owners gen- erally much food for thought. Suppose, it is argued, that Judge Simonton makes his temporary injuncticn against the cutting of rates permanent. The order of that of- ficial established a decidedly novel prece- dent, and while it virtually gave to the court the right to determine what rates shail be charged it also carried with it the elements of danger. A very serious question has been raised whether it is advisable to go into court and fight the injunction and deny the right of the court to interfere in rate making, or remain passive for the sake of harmony and the avoidance of trouble. Railway of- ficials all over the country are extremcly Jealous of their rights to fix rates, for the recent decisions of the Supreme Court have indicated that railroad companies solely have the right to fix their rates on traflic. If the position assumed by Judge Simonton, it is argued, is sustained, there is much to tear for the companies, for they will be powerless to advance rates so long as re- course t> the courts by injunction re- mains. i The Southern Railway Company is mak- ing considerable changes in the location of some of its agents. District Passenger Agent Taylor has been transferred from Atlanta to Norfolk, Va. Mr. W. D. Allen has been transferred from Jacksonville to Atlanta and Mr. L. A. Shipman has been promoted from traveling passenger agent at Birmingham to be district passenger agent at Jacksonville. Fla. vice Allen, transferred. To Reduce Pullman Rates. There fs a rumor fn circulation in rail- road circles that the Pullman company is ecntemplating a reduction In its rate: The parlor car service will be first af- fected. The railroad managers have, it is said, finally convinced Mr. Pullman that his rates were to a large extent pro- hibitive, and the reduction will probably amount to fully 50 per cent. Following this change Pullman fares will be cut on the Baltimore and Ohio and Hocking ome of the Valley and Okio Central. y men are urging Mr. Pull- of the Southern railw man that while he is doing such meritc fous work he will extend the good work so as to include their territory in the changes, as it is believed there is abundant scope for sweeping changes in the rates as they now stand. It is understood that a deal has been en- tered into between the Baltimore and Ohio, the Grand Trunk and the Lehigh Valle whereby the Lehigh Valley will have two through trains a day between New York and St. Louts. The Lehigh Valley has « direct Chicago connection with the Grand Trunk running from Suspension Bridge. It is further stated that as soon as its short connecting branch between Tona- wanda and the Canadian side of the Falls is completed it will have one of the best services for Chicago out of New York. The Black Diamond special on the Lehigh Valley will make the run trom New York to Buffalo in ten hours. As soon as the branch to the Fails is completed the Grand Trunk will revise its schedule to connect directly with this train. Railway Hospita! The awful accident a few days ago at Atlantic City has called public attention in a very emphatic manner to the necessity of an organized system of relief in case of railroad disasters, and’it is urged that a railroad hospital would be an important step in that direction. Dr. J. F. Valentine, chief surgeon of the Long Island railway system, is taking the preliminary steps to erganize a hospital corps on that road, and soine months ago the Erie officials adopted plans looking to the establishment of a similar organization. The New York State Association of Railway Surgeons, with a membership of about one hundred, has for some time been endeavoring to secure the establishment of such a system. Upon in- vestigation among the employes and the managers of railroads they have found thai those who are familiar with the work- ings of this department on roads where it has been installed favor it, but many are unfamiliar with it. The system includes a hospital, established and maintained by monthly assessments of from 25 to ®# cenis, levied upon all employes, from the pres! dent of the road down. When a contrib- uting employe falls sick or ts injured, he is removed to the hospital, and there treated without charge. Each employe is a part owner of the hospital, and in receiving the treatment he fs not accepting charity. The late Robert Garrett, while president of the Baitimore nad Ohio, established a hospital service for the employes of the company, which is still in operation, and which has been found to work admirably. To Tap a Coal Deposit. The Baltimore and Ohio, the Pennsylva- nia and the Pittsburg and Lake Erie com- panties are all about to build short branch lines to connect their several systems with some valuable coal deposits which have been discovered in Washington and Greene counties, Pa. These deposits Me to the south of the main line of the Panhandle road and extend west for many miles.
