PITTSBURG, October 28—The eighteen bishops of the Methodist Episcopal Church are in session in this city. A poll was taken during the day as to their political opinions. They all pronounced themselves in favor of McKinley and sound money, and expressed a desire to see him elected. Bishop Vincent said: “Of course you know I am for McKinley and gold, and I hope they will win, but the result cannot well be foretold because of the quiet voting that wilt be done on both sides. This makes it a very difficult and delicate task to proclaim in advance which candidate will be chosen, but I hope it is McKinley.” Bishop Cyrus D. Foss and Bishop John F. Hurst laughed and said: “You know how we all stand; all for McKinley.” The venerable Bishop Edward G. An- drews also declared emphatically for Mc- Kinley and said he choped he would be elected. Bishop Bowman is inclined to think that Missouri, his home state, will fall in line for McKinley, and says that hundreds of democrats in St. Louls have espoused the sound-mioney cause and will be heard from atthe election. Bishop Mc- Cabe thinks McKinley “will carry Nebraska. He deplores the intolerant spirit being ex- hibited in many states by the silver party. ——_—__+-e ___ Republican’ Parade Attacked.

Hoyt & Co., importers and wholesale grocers of Chicago, presented to Mr“Bryan yesterday a house and two lots in Lincoln, Neb., in leu of a cash contribution to the campaign fund. In his letter Mr. Hoyt scored the gold standard, and declared that, although he is rich in real estate, he is poor in cash. Mr. Bryan turned the deed over to Chair- man Jones, who will sell it and put the pro- ceeds into the democratic campaign fund. The property is worth about $18,000, CHARGES DISCUSSED Bryan Replies to Assertions of His ~ Opponents, DENIES THAT HE IS A REPUDIATOR Declares That He is for Peace and Order. ADDRESS TO CHICAGOANS ee See ees In addressing the business men's meeting in Chicago yesterday, after The Star's tele- graphic report closed, Mr. Bryan, the demo- cratic candidate, satd: “Tf the republican party has a plan which will relieve us from our present financial condition, why does not the republican party submit that plan to the American people for their verdict, and if they have no plan, what presumption it is for them to ask you to trust them first, and let them find out afterward. (Great applause and cheering.) I say we are advocating a sound- er financial system than they, because when you go to. construct anything, whether it be a house or a financial sys- tem, you have got to have a foundation for it to rest upon, and our opponents are try- ing to construct a commercial fabric rest- ing upon gold, when they cannot find the gold to serve as the foundation for the fabric. (Applause.) “You ask them how much gold there is in the country. Why, they tell you, the treasury reports say there are six hundred millions. You ask them where it is. They tell you so much in the national bank vaults, so much in the treasury at Wash- ington. They estimate so much in state banks and trust companies, and they will figure up something more than half of the estimated amount in the country, and then you ask them where is the rest. They tell you that it is the invisible supply in the country. (Applause and a voice, ‘In the stockings.) “My friends, you cannot build a house upon an invisible foundation, neither can you rear a sound financial system upon a foundation which you cannot find. (Ap- plause.) You go to your bankers and ask them where the gold. is. Why, they tell you that silver agitation has scared it out (aughter): that gold has gone into hiding because somebody has raised a question as to whether there ts enough gold to fur- nish a foundation, The very moment you question the quantity of gold, gold be- comes scarce and proves that you are right by getting out of sight. (Applause and laughter.) I have illustrated it In this way: No man would stand with a rope around his neck and the other end of the rope held by some unseen man away off in the distance, and the man not know when the man over there was going to pull the rope. (Laughter and applause.) You could tell that man not to be agitated, but the heart would flutter as long as he did not know when the rope was going to be pulled. (Applause.) “My friends, such is our condition. Here is a great financial system resting upon a handful of gold, and people in a foreign land have a string to the gold, and you never know when they are going to pull the foundation out from under your fabric and let your entire commercial structure ccllapse. (Applause.) Tell the people not to be agitated, my friends! You cannot calm the sea by words! As hopeless as it is to attempt to calm troubled society by telling them to be quiet when they know that catastrophe stands just in front of them all the time. (Great cheering.) Increase in the Money Supply. “I want you to note this proposition. When we talk about wanting more mone: why, they tell you there is money enough in the country; plenty of money in the country! The moment you begin to argue that there should be more, they will silence you by pointing to the amount of money in the banks awaiting to be loaned and then you say, ‘All right. If we have enough money in this country now let us have a financial system of our own;’ and they say, ‘Oh, no, no; can’t do that, be- cause if you do that then we cannot bor- row from abroad.’ (Laughter and cheers. Why do we want to borrow if we hav enough? (Prolonged cheering.) Now, my friends, there are the two positions. You cannot escape both of them. If we have enough money now then we do not want any money to come from abroad, because then we would have too much, and nobody wants too much. (Laughter and applause.) 1f we need money from abroad it is con- clusive proof that we have not enough money now in this country, and if we haven't enough now, I assert that it is bet- ter to have an additional supply come out of cur own mountains and be our own mon- ey instead of borrowing and then pay it back to the foreign naticns of the world. (Great applause.) The republican platform pledges tie republican party to use every effort to promote international bimetallism. How Is it going to promote it? By making it profitable for foreign creditors to object to it. How are they going to promote in- ternational bimetallism? By making it profitable to foreign financiers to refuse our petition. I promise you to promote inter- national bimetallism, and I promise io do it in a more sensible way than by making it profitable to refuse our petition. You ask me what our plan is. 1 will tell you. They have tried our plan for twenty years and we are further off now than when we com- menced to try your remedy. (Applause.) “I propose a different plan. You have said to foreign creditors that if they will object to bimetallism we will join with them in making their mortgages more val- uable and their notes more valuable and their dollars buy more. I propose that the Jnited States buy at the mints of the United States and open them to the free and unlimited coinage of silver on equal terms with gold at the present ratio, and the money coined shall be alike legal ten- Ger for all debts, public or private. (Great applause.) And then I propose that we shall say to our foreign creditors that we intend to pay our coin obligations in either gold or silver. (Applause.) “I propose that we shall say to them: ‘Gentlemen, if you conspire to make that silver dollar worth less than the gold dol- lar we shall pay you in that silver dollar. (Great applause and cheers.) “You say that is repudiation? I deny it. They bought our bonds only a short time ago, and they made a difference between coin bonds and gold bonds, charging for the risk they took, and now let them have the risk they were paid for. “You say they have a right to charge us more because of the risk they took, and then we haven’t the right to exercise the option which they calculated on. Ah, my friends, that idea comes simply from those who think that all society should be care- ful to guard the interest of the creditor and neglect every right that a debtor has. (Cheers.) Soundness of Contracts. “I notice that some of our cities are very much excited because the Chicazo platform says that we pledge ourselves to secure such legislation as will for the future prevent contracts for a particular kind of money. Why, they say that we are not going to let people contract. We are not going to let them make coniracts that are against public policy; we do not intend that they shall demonctize ty pri- vate contract what this government makes money by universal law. (Great cheer- ing.) You say we have no right to inter- fere with private contracts. I ask one of you to enter into a contract to collect twenty per cent interest and see whether the government has any right to interfere with it. (Applause.) “Upon what theory is usury law based? It is based upon the theory that the men who borrow money need to be protected from the avarice of the man who Icans them money. (Applause.) That is the basis of all usury laws, and when a man tells me that we have not the right to protect the money of the United States against the conspiracy of those who would de- grade it, I tell you that we have more right to prevent gold contracts or silver contracts than you have to prevent one individual from agreeing to pay another more than a certain amount of interest. (Applause.) “Talk about freedom of contract, why there can only be one freedom of contract between people who stand upon an equal footing. When one is under duress it is not freedom of contract. It is freejom ‘THE EVENING STAR, THURSDAY, OCTOBER 29, 1896—TWELVE PAGES. |Goldenberg’s, to extort and prctection to the extor-er. (Applause.) Menace to Public Order. “My friends, our opponenis having been defeated in their efforts to convince the People that the gold standard ought to be maintained, are seeking to do now what they have always sought to do—win the battle on another issue, and having won the battle carry the gold standard a little further. Now they are telling you that my election would be a menace to peace and order. They tell you tha: I siand for lawlessness. I want to say to you, my friends, that I stand no: only for the en- forcement of the law, but I stand for arbi- tration as @ means of adjusting difficulties by peaceable means, (Great applause.) (A voice, “We will give you a chance next Tuesday,” cheering.) Our opponents be- leve in allowing the railroads to engage in a controversy with thé labor organizations and then call out the standing urmy to preserve order. I believe in compelling them to submit their differences to boards of arbitration and adjust by peace what our opponents would adjust by force. (Pro- longed cheering.) You business men have been told that an era of lawlessness will prevail if I am elected. I want to tell you that until we find some means of «d‘ust- ing the differences which arise between labor and capital, some sysi2m that com- pels both to go before imparzial tribunals, you can expect increasing disorder. instead of increasing quiet. (Great applatise.) Arbitration in Labor Disputes. “I believe in the court of justic. If one man differs with another I do not ask them to go out and settle it by fighting it out; I tell them to submit their case, both of them, to a court and let the court decide and let the government enforce the decree of that impartial tribunal. (Applause.) And so, my friends, conditions have so changed that it is necessary now to extend the principle of the court of justice to the boards of arbitration and let them sii in judgment upon the disputes that ari: between the great carriers of our inte state commerce and the employe of those railroads. I believe in arbitration, and, my friends, the best evidence that cur principle of arbitration is just is to be found in the fact that not a republican speaker dared to stand before an American audience and condemn that plan in favor of arbitration. (Applause.) And yet without daring to con- demn, they go up and down this land ob- serving a Giscreet silence as to arbitration. And how can you expect the republican pariy to favor arbitration if it recures its hold on government through the very men who defy arbitration and oppose law and order? They tell you that I will not enforce the law. My friends, the fear of these peo- ple is not thai I refuse to enforce the law. Their fear is that I will enforce the law. (Applause.) They know that I entertain old-fashioned ideas upon this subject, and that according to my idea, the big criminal should wear striped cloth>s the same as the little criminal. (Great applause.) “I want to say to you that we who be- lieve in enforcing all laws against all classes of society are better friends of gov- ernment than those who make scapegoats of little criminals and then let big ones run a: large to run the government itself. (Wild applause.) “The very men who would suffer most through the enforcement of law are th ones who seem to be most terribly alarmed that there will be lax enforcement of laws. (Applause.) They are not afraid that I will encourage lawlessness, but they know that if I am elected their trusts will not select the Attorney General who will ad- minister the law. (Great applause.) ‘Now, my friends, this is a business men’s meeting and we are talking at the noon hour, and I don’t want you to ne- glect_ycur business by staying here any longer. I have told you what I believe on these things. If you want that kiud of a President you can have him and if you don't want him you don't have to have him.” (Great applause and cheering.)

Porter had to do yesterday morning when he reached his headquarters on the fifth floor of the Mills building was to make provision for increases in the quotas of men of three divisions, already assigned to places in line. The Drug, Paint, Oil and Chemical Trades Club sent word that they would have 2,000 more men than they at first reported. The Machinery, Railway Supplies and Metal Association asked to have provision made for 1,100 more men in their division than they first calculated upon, and the marshal of the real estate division sent word that he would have 50) more paraders under him than he had at first reported. When these reports came in, one after the other, Gen. Porter sighed, and remarked: “Well, let the good work go on. I don’t sce how you can stop them, but the island is only ten miles long.” He had hardly made this remark when the application for a place in line came in from the Wine and Spirit Trades Society. Right on the heels of this came eight other applications for positions in line from the following: The Boot and Shoe Sound Money Association, the Wholesale Fish Dealers’ Scund Money Club, the Cloak and Suit In- dustry, the Cloak and Suit Trades, the Stu- dents of the New York Homeopathic Med- ical College, the John Stephenson Company and the Photographers’ Sound Money Asso- ciation. Late yesterday afternoon the Car- riage Trade Sound Money League sent word that they would send a division, sw strong, under the command of Col. D. L. Wilson, with W. H. Irwin as chief of staff. Add to Gen. Porter's original estimate of 125,000 the number of accessions received yesterday, and, even if no more organiza- tions come in, there will be nearly 140,000 men in line, if not more. It has been found that this desire to parade on Saturday has spread, during the last two days, through every branch of Metropolitan trade. It is like an epidemic, which secms almost impossible to check. So great is this desire, on the part of em- ployer and employed, to show their colors that the grand marshal has expressed a fear that some persons may get the idea that there will be so many in line that they will not, after all, turn out. He wishes to remind such persons, if any there be, that every business man is needed in line on Saturday. It is a question of patriotism, not convenience, and one of the principal ideas of this parade is to have its effect felt over the whole country. To produce that effect every man who has already sig- nified his intention of parading should carry out that intention. Gen. Porter would like to be able to send the news ringing ovcr the country on Savarday night that by actual count 150,000 business men of New York marched over Manhattan Island for the sake of home and country and the flag. Some of the members of the organiza- tions which have not been ordered to move urtil late in the afternoon have offered some little objection to parading, on the ground that it will be after dark before their organizations take up the march, and that there will be no opportunity for them to see and be seen. In this they are very much mistaken. Mayor Strong has invited the owners and tenants of business places and residences along the line of march to illuminate as soon as the sun goes down. The mayor has received many personal responses to this invitation, assuring him that 5th avenue and lower Broadway will be ablaze with light from dusk until after the last division in the parade has been dismissed. The mayor is of the opinion that New Yorkers have never seen any- think like such an illumination as they will see on Saturday night. -——_—_—+e+ —_____ Rev. E. H. D.

Major McKinley Given Strong Evi- dence of Their Esteem. ALL THE CITY CALLED ON HIM ap eosin, It Was an Occasion Made Mem- orable. DISCUSSING THE ISSUES SS Major McKinley was given a tesimonial of love and confidence yesterday by neighbors and fellow citizens of Can- ten, Ohio. All Canton, and that is 40,000 people, seemed to be either in Me- Kinley’s yard or as near it as they could get. The enthusiasm of the crowd was boundless. It manifested itself in such shouts and hurrzhs and such blasts of trumpets and rolis of drums that the.speak- ing could not proceed for many minutes. It broke out afresh when the introductions had been finished, and Major McKinley mounted the chair to respond. It inter- rupted his speech at short intervals in sign of approval of what he said. Business was generally suspe "clock So as to allow all to attend the dem- tration. There was no organization or jassification about the parade. Merchants and cierks marched side & as did manufacturers and bookke barbers and do-tors, butchers and bakers and trick- layers, all in one long; wide colamn, reach- ing from the McKinley home, through the square nearly half a mile away. and and every drum corps in the volunteered for the demonstration. One of the most pleasant incidents of the campaign was the reunion in the McKinley brary this afternoon of the five survivors of the first ticket cn which was placed the ame of William McKinley as a candidat It was the republican union ticket for Star county in IN. Major McKinley is th youngest of the ry one cn the ticket was clected that yeer, and in his address Major McKinley paid'to cach a most eloquent tribute. Major McKii Major McKinley, in part: “It would be a hard heart, indeed, that would be unmoved by this magniticent demonstration of my neighbors and fellow townsmen, who nave bled hb to- night without regard to party, natic y or creed, to give expression to their good will for the great cause for which 1 been desi 1 at 4:20 o city jey’s Speee address, said in Asse aati ave nated to stand e invelved in the pending -opli struggle. before and I be Tuesday will show a muc was ever polled before in eur country.
