The long flowing locks had been closely clipped and the old-fashioned broad cloth coat which helped to make him seem older had been saperseded by a new cutaway of a modern fashion. Mr. Bryan looked nearer his real age than he has at any time since the campaign be gan. f A hundred or more people gathered at the New York. New Haven & Hart ford Railroad station in Hartford this morning to see Mr. Bryan leave lor Springfield. They cheered him as be appeared on the platform of the special car secured by the Springfield commit tee, and demanded a speech. Mr. Bryan told them something about the money question and had just finished as the train drew out at 11.18. A small crowd assembled around the Bryan car at Windsor, Conn., the first stop. A colored man marched up to the train bearing a piece of brown paper with the names of McKinley and Ho bart chalked on it. At Windsor Locks several hundred people saw Mr. Bryan. He was cheered, and responded with a few words. v Thomson ville was the last stop in Connecticut.- The crowd was about equal to that at Windsor Locks. Mr. Bryan spoke briefly.

(ApjJSteaieO My friends, I have always respected Wi honest and earnest and able opponent. I have never criticised the right of any one to speak his sentiments and present his ideas as clearly, as forcibly as be can. I believe with Jefferson that' error is harmless where reason is free to combat it. (Great applause.) And if any man has an idea I am willing for him to launch that idea and trust to the merits of that idea to make its way into the mind and into the hearts of men, and I respect the Spring field Republican for the high (great ap plause) ptane' upon which it.- -Siiicusses political questions. I respect it fr the tolerance which it. -shows to polrta opponents, and-xrtthout censuring those who substitute abuse for argument, I can jmmend those who use argument Instead of abuse. (Great applause.) I Ir can commend also to every citizen the woras oi mat aisungmsaea editor wno was the founder of this paper. I am told that he is the author of the ex pre sTioTrttaira-iaaa nblJi, SStWlLlisg. to die for a cauie be believes In is not worthy to live. (Great applause.) "My friends, it is the willingness of people to stake their all upon the cor rectness of their convictions that has enabled the truth to spread from person to person until at last it ovetcimes the opposition. And in this campaign we have as good an illustration as was ever given of the depth of conviction and the intensity of earnestness in the presenta tion of the cause. I challenge yon to find in dl the political contests which this country has passed through a single contest which has aroused more earn estness than this contest through which we are now pasting. I challenge you to find among all the hosts who have de fended a cause more earnest men than yon find to-day among the advocates of the right of this Government to legislate for itself without regard to other nations. (Great applanse.) . It will not do to say that there is no cause for such feeling as is manifested now. ' If you read the dispatch which appeared in yesterday morning's papers, from Lon don, you will find that a great meeting of agriculturists was held in Budapest, and speaking of that meeting the dis patch said tbat practically all of those representing agricultural societies were in favor of the restoration of bimetal lism: " . . "My friends, oar opponents sometimes tell us that this movement in favor of free coinage is started by the mine own ers and kept np by the mine owners. I want them to understand that they can not explain this great uprising of the people on the theory that it is instigated by a man who owns bullion and wants to sell it at a higher price. This great uprising comes from the masses of the people who do not produce bullion; but they produce property, and they realize tbat the gold standard has been driving value out .of the property which they produce. (Applause). ' "The opposition press may well afford to pause In their ridicule of the advo cates of free coinage, in their denuncia tion cf them as lawless characters, to find out whether there is a well-founded reason for this advocacy of bimetallism among the farmers of the United States, of England, of Germany, of France, and of every nation which has been cursed by the, gold standard. My friends, I assert here and I challenge any gold bag paper to dispute it, that a financial policy which is injurious to the agricul tural classes has nothing to commend it to the Government of any nation on earth. ( Applause ) ' The gold standard has never commended itself to the agri cultural classes of any country which has ever had it. What will you say then? Will you say that these farmers have no right to have their interest respected? No, you dare not say tbat, because, my friends, they mnst first produce wealth before there is wealth to be distributed. Will yon say, then, tbat having the right to have their Interests respected they have hot the intelligence to know what is best for them? No, you dare not say that, because yon know that in public life and in business life the best brains that yon have .came from the farms of this conn try. (Applause.) What answer will you make to them? When they ask lor bread will yon give them a stone? When they atk for fish, will yon bestow ser pents upon them? Tbat has been the policy of the financiers of this country, and in their selfishness they bave been attempting to force their ideas upon others, while others have fallen down beneath the weight of tnese ideas, and the financiers themselves have risen to prosperity on tbe prostrate forms of the fallen. (Great applanse and cheering). "No person can accuse me of attempt ing to deny the financiers or even the money-changers the right to their opinion, the right to their votes, the right to - every legitimate influence. What I deny to . them is this, the right to think for anybody but themselves, the right to act for anybody but them selves, the right to put themselves above other people and go through the world saying, 'I am holier than thou; 1 am holier than thou. . (Cheers and ap plause.) v . - : . "My friends, let me give you one rule by which you can determine the sincerity of men. It is not a new rale. It is as old as the law of evidence. It applies to ail walks of lite and to all conditions and to all subjects. The man who be lieves he is right tells yon what he be lieves and why he believes it. A man who does not believe that he is right is the man who has filled . the dictionary with ambiguous terms - and fills his speech with words of double meaning. (Great applause). .The man who talks about 'sound money' and then refuses to tell you what 'sound money means, can get a certificate of honesty only from himself. (Cheers and applanse). ' . "If the advocates of sound money be lieved that their money was good, they would tell you that bysound money thev meant a gold standard. I asked a man why it was that he was opposed to using the word 'gold' in the platform. 'Well,' he said. 'We bave an unreasona ble prejudice against the word gold and therefore it was to avoid that prejudice that they used the phrase sound money. (Applause). "My friends, the people have no prejn I dice against the gold, but they have a prejudice against a system that is based upon gold and does not furnish the gold when people want it. (Great ap plause.) There is one advantage in being a bimetallism You can like gold and silver both, while a gold standard man does not dare to like silver and he does not get much gold to' like. (Applause ) A man told me that out of, nearly $1,000,000 collected in taxes in Hart ford, y Conn., less, than $100 was collected in gold. Our opponents tell us that they want sound money, but they want a financial system built upon an invisible foundation. Do you call that soundness, my friends? If you do, you bave got to write a new meaning for soundness and have soundness defined as that which is dangerous. (Applsuse). "Our opponents talk about honest money, and yet, my friends, they never touch upna the purchasing power of a dollar in defining what is an honest dol lar. They tell as that they- want good money. My friends, there are two things that we need in money. We mast not only have money which is good, bat we must have money which we can get bold of. (Applause) If money is no good that you can pray for it and long for it but can never tee it ex cept when you bave the privilege of gaz ing through some grated door and look ing at somebody else's pile, then it is too good for tbe masses of the people. (Ap plause). " "Money ought not to be built on tbe balloon plan. Balloons are built to go up, and the higher tbey go the higher they are as7balloons, and if dollars are built on that plan the higher they go the greater is the misery tbey bring. to man kind. (Applause ) Oar opponents want a balloon dollar. Our opponents want a dollar that gets higher and bigher all the time. If we are going to have a gold standard, if we are going to have a gold dollar whose appetite is never satisfied dollar which insists upon eating more of tnewoqacts ot ton every year, we ought to change tneTntt5l tbe mints and so describe that dollar toVat people will understand it. Let us Kake off the emblems that have adocTned it from the beginning and putPOn one side the picture of the horteJireech, and under the picture let be written as in ProverbSj. '-ive, give, give," and on the other gufoe of the gold dollar let us put ne picture of an open grave, and jttaw it let us write as injZssoSfig, "Tt sayeth not, it is enough (Great applause and xaugmer y friends, that is the sort of dollar that the gold standard has given us. That is the sort of dollar mat the gold standard will continue to give to us. If oats get down to 10 cents a bushel that means that one dollar , will buy ten bushels of oats, and if that dollar is not good enough you can send its value up until one dollar will buy twenty bushels jQLjdjus, and if the armeri5Udtr5Ied with getting' too" ifliTcb money for his oats you can still send it up higher so that it will get one hundred bushels of oats. You can make the dollar as dear as you want to. and the dearer you make it the worse it is for everybody, except the owner of a fixed investment and the men who sell bonds to the Gov ernment, after having driven the Gov ernment into the position . where it wants to buy the bonds. Applause "When tbey talk of a gold standard I always think of What Lincoln said when a man once asked him how he liked his speech. He replied: 'Anybody who would like tbat sort of a speech would be very much pleased with it.' (Ap plause and laughter.) I find that the people who like the gold standard are very much pleased with it but I am glad to say that tbe number of people who like the gold standard is growing less every day, even in New England." (Great applause and cheers ) Worcester. Mass., September 25. Between 8 000 and 10.000 people heard a short speech from Mr. Wm. J. Bryan here to-day. Mr. Bryan reached Wor cester shortly before 3 o'clock, and was cbeered by a throng of several thousand at tbe Union station. He entered a car riage and was driven to the square. Mr. Bryan spoke from a temporary stand, and behind htm was the big building of William H. Barns, manufac turer, who had decorated bis establishment with emblems showing hostility to the Democratic candidate. Mr. Bryan saw tbe decorations, but made no reference to them. He was presented by . Eugene Moriarity, a member of the Legislature. . Loud cheers came from tbe crowd when be stepped forward. Returning to the station, at the conclusion ot his speech, he found there a big crowd. Peopie pressed around tbe rear car shouting for tbe candidate. The cheers that came when he went' out upon tbe platform were heartier '-. than those at Salem Square. It was 415 when the train drew out, followed by loud shouting. Boston, Mass.. September 25. One stop only and that at South Framing ham, was made by candidate Bryan on bis trip from Worcester to Boston. Three cheers were given him there bj a gathering ot several hundred. Mr. Bryan did not speak. Concerning a number of inquiries about tbe condition of his health, Mr. Bryan said this evening that he was feel ing strong and well and was reducing exertion to a minimum by resting at every opportunity. Between stations to day he would lie down in tbe drawing room of his special car and' managed to recuperate in tbat way. Mr. Bryan has not yet written h i letter accepting the Populist aomination. He told a reporter of the Southern Associated Press to day tbat he bad not had time to finish it. bat would probably do so next week. .- Boston, September 25 William J. Bryan arrived in Boston at 5 87 this afternoon; He came over the Boston & Albany Railroad at the Kneeland street station and was met by a delega tion of six members of tbe Bryan-Sewall-Williams club. Abcut 20.000 people assembled to get a glimpse of the Democratic candidate. . When .Mr. Bryan appeared on tbe platform oi his car there was a cheer acd a mighty rush by the crowd. Tbe po lice resorted to force and at last pushed the crowd back and made way for Mr. Bryan. Tbe candidate then walked through the station to Kneeland street, tbe crowd veiling all tbe time-. When be finally reached Kneeland street, where his carriage was In waiting, the crowd in tbe street which filled the neighborhood cbeered vociferously. Mr. Bryan quickly entered the car riage and was driven to the American House, where, after a short reception, at which a few members of tbe Bimetallic Union and Hon. Arthur Siwall.of Bath were present, ne took inncneon - with prominent silver men. At the close of tbe dinner Cot. Stephen W. Nickerson Introduced Hon. E. Moody Boynton, who welcomed Mr. Bryan to Boston. Mr. Bryan, responded in a few serious words. . - - Mr. Bryan was to begin speaking at 6.45, but It was 7.80 before he finally arrived there, and he found gathered about the temporary stand that had been erected from SO 000 to 75,000 peo ple. Police officers said tbat the crowd numbered at least 75000. Mr. Bryan said it was the largest gathering he had addressed. - ' " . There was no mistaking the'sentiment of the Music Hall meeting. It was dis tinctly in sympathy with the Democratic candidate. Music Hall seats 2.800 peo ple. To-night between 4,000 and 5,000 men and women were in the big building. The chief interest in to-night's meeting was not the candidate for the Presi dency, but in a sensational speech de livered by his friend and supporter and former colleague in Copgress, George Fred Williams, candidate for Governor before the Democratic State Convention, which meets in Music Hall to-morrow. Dedham Mass., September 25. Wm. . Bryan reached this city about mid night. He arrived at Memorial Hall, which contained 1,890 people, and at 11.55 Mr. George Fred Williams intro duced Mr. Bryan, who spoke very briefly, and was then driven to Mr. Williams' residence to spend tbe night. YALE COLLEGE ROWDIES Deny That They Prevented atr. Bryan ' Speaking at New Haven. Br Telegraph to the Morning Star. New Haven. Conn., September 25. Every one is -discussing the Bryan inci dent of yesterday when the Presidential candidate stopped speaking and declared that he was prevented by Yale men's noise from proceeding. There is a gen eral denial that he was stopped from speaking by Yale men, their claim being tbat tbey cbeered for McKinley and gold incessantly at the beginning of his speech, compelling Mr. Bryan to take bis seat, alter be had risen to speak and to wait five minutes till the cheering stopped, but they state that when he once began tbey did not prevent him fiom continuing. Much indignation is felt here at the reference by Mr. Bryan to Yale students as young men who came to college to spend "ill-gotten gains." Tbe Yale fac ulty assert tbat no official notice will be taken of the incident. The Register to-night prints an edi torial to prove that yesterday's disturb ance was due ii a large degree to an in cendiary speech delivered to an unsym pathetic audience. It says that the cheers given him were only such as Dr. Depew and other notables have re ceived from Yale audiences from time to time in the past. Tbe editoriat says that in retiring Mr. Bryan threw the blame from bis own shoulders, where it belonged, to tbe shoulders of the Yale men, where it did not belong. ; GOLD IMPORTATIONS.

NEW ORLEANS BANKS. President and Caahlar ot tbe Bank cf Com znaroe Arrested. By Telegraph to the Morning Star. New Orleans. La., September 25. To-day affidavits were made against President Nichols and Cashier De Blanc, of the lately suspended Bank of Com merce, by one of tbe bank's depositors and shareholders, charging them specifi cally with receiving deposits after they knew the bank was insolvent and in vio lation of Act 108 ' of the Legislature of 1884. This act'raakes it a crime for any bank officer- to consent to the reception of any deposits or the creation of any debt by a banking institution after he sball have knowledge that it is insolvent or in tailing cir cumstances. The penalty for violating the act is not less than five years in the penitentiary at bard .labor.

The activity of the headquarters of the various Presi dential nominees fa sending out public documents and other literature has somewhat embarrassed the Postoffice Department by overtaxing its mail bag facilities." The result was an order to day issued to postmasters throughout the country directing all surplus mail equipment to be promptly forwarded to regular depositories. Also tbat when sacks containing documents or other matter are received by any postmaster, they must be emptied at once and promptly forwarded to the proper de pository. If members of Congress or others have been permitted to take from a postoffice sacks containing mat ter addressed to them the postmasters must demand tbe immediate return ot such sacks and forward them with other surplus.
