His ‘experience at the open air meeting strikingly illustrated the fu- | tility of getting together excessively large | crowds for a political meeting. In the one important respect of attracting many peo- | ple to see the national candidate the meet- ‘ ing was an unsurpassed triumph; In the | other respect of giving people an oppor- tunity to hear him it was a failure, and the success one way was the cause of the failure the other. People had been coming vlvania all day, so that when Mr. Bryan arrived at 4:20 In the afternoon all the principal streets were crowded and the square around the speaker's stand, possibly 400 | feet on each side, was densely packed with people struggling to get near the platform and to secure a glimpse of the lion of the occasion. There was no effort | to create trouble, but the natural hum of thousands of voices and the struggle for place was such as to almost destroy the effect of the speech. The stand provided for the accommodation to seat sixty per- sons held 400 standing. The arms of news- paper men on the stand were pinioned s close that they could bt ralse them to | write and those who were twenty feet away could not hear the speech. Mr. Bryan himself had scarcely more room n was necessary for him to stand erect and a squad of policemen was neces: sary | Lreserve the s for 1. Those who were able to hear received the speect with frequent bursts of applause, and th: away from the range of the speaker’'s voice, so that it may be said that the meeting + enthusiastic even though mest of those present failed to hear what was said. | After the outdoor meeting at .

Here | Bryan spoke of the importance of the campaign, saying -that the contest was not more his than It was that of other people who were concerned about the wel- | fare of the nation at large. He referred | to the presence of so many ladles, and | addressing himself to them, said: “I am glad to talk to an audience com- posed so largely of women, for certainly in this cogtest the woman is as much in- | terested as the man.

British Authorities Anxious to Shut Out All Armed Refugees. HONGKONG, Oct. 15.—A column troops was dispatched this morning to the Kowloon frontier with the object of barring armed refugees, either rebels or imperial troops, from entering British territory when defeated. The rebels are reported to be three thousand strong thirty miles north of the British frontier. A thousand of Admiral Ho's troops are in pursuit of them, while two thousand Chi- nese troops have left Canton overland to intercept the rebels Admiral Ho has informed the Governor that the rebellion was carefully planned. The rebels are anxious to conciliate the villagers and gain the respect of foreign- ers, hence the absence of outrage or pil- lage. All indications point to the rising being widespread.
