Wheat Strong and Hither Corn and Oats Adranood In Bympsthr With Wheat Pork and Bibi Cloacd a Bhde Lower. -By Telegraph to the Moroing Star. Chicago, Sept. 88 The first fifteen minutes of to-day's session of tbe wheat market sff jrded the bears on that grain a little consolation, but afterwards there was no solace whatever in the situation The first symptom of strength scared the shorts and buying of all classes and descriptions became the feature. Decern ber wheat opened from 65 AOSMc, ad vanced to 68c closing at 67Mc 13c higher than Saturday. Cash wheat was strong and 1VC higher. Corn The tone was similar to that noted in wheat and was derived from that grain. May corn opened at i5c, sold between 23 and 25CA259C, clos mg at 35c bid He higner than Satur day. Casn corn was firm , and Jc per busnel higoer. Oats were affected by tbe movement of wheat and corn prices. May oats closed iz higber than Saturday. Cash oats were firm but prices were un changed. - . ' Provisions were influenced to a large extent by grain. Local speculators availed themselves of tbe strength of wheat to bid prices up. Opening trad ing was with an easy feeling; but later better prices were established. At the close January pork was 5c under Sat nrday. January lard 2f 5c higber and January ribs a shade lower. . ELECTORAL FUSION. Fopt Who Don't Want It UQlgg-'Sbwall Cornea Do-rsrj'T ' By Telegraphja- Morning Star. JtALEiGHJft. -September 28. The "roetKsive Farmer, the n reran of the Uonal Farmers' Alliance, attacks electoral fusion in to-day iitue. saying : "So tar as we are concerned the elec tors may all be Democrats. Republicans. People's party or Silver party electors. We are only Interested in the nominees. If this electoral combination means the election of Sewall in the final round up, no honest reformer is under any obliga tions to vote for it. If wisdom finally prevails and a good man is substituted for Sewall (we care not who be is), then no good citizen will hesitate in choos ing between this electoral ticket and the McKinley-Hanna ticket. We will wait patently to see if wisdom, patriotism . and justice shall prevail. If a decent avenue is opened, all right; if not, we shall exercise American citizenship and .wash our hands of tbe whole outfit, and begin the. fight for reform all over again and in a sensible way."

Epscohei at Many Places In Maaaaohnietts, Connecticut and Bhode Ieland Thirty Thousand People Assembled at Efew- atk to Hear His Address The Be- " torn to Haw York City. By Telegraph to the Morning Star. Boston, Mass., September 23. Wm. . Bryan reached Lynn from Bath at 5 80 o'clock this morning. Five hours of sleep had been, his preparation for to day's hard wbrf. He reached Newburyport at 4 45, with Arthur Sewall, who will accompany his running mate to New York; Josepbus Daniels, of North Carolina; Fred W. Piaisted, of Augusta, and S. S. and M W. Sewall, nephews of the. Vice Presi dential candidate. The party was taken to the Hotel Seymour, and while break fast was being prepared Mr. Bryan tried to get a little more sleep. At 7 80 o'clock Mr. Bryan and Mr. Sewall left the Hotel Seymour for Highland Square, where tbe Presidential !candidate spoke. De spite the early hour, a great crowd had gathered mere. Mr. Bryan was intro duced by John Dnscoli, and made a half hour s speech. On its conclusion he re turned with Mr. Sewall and the other members of his piny to the Boston and Maine station, followed by a big crowd, which cheered him repeatedly. The party took tbe 8 21 express for Boston. Providence. R. I. September 28 A crowd of 15,000 people, listened to short speech Irom him. He arrived from Button on the 10.05 train accompanied by Mr. Sewalli George Fred ' Williams and Committeeman Piaisted. A number of people shook hands with him at Mans field, tbe only atop made between Bos Ion and Providence. A reception com mittee, consisting of members of the Democratic State Central '"Committee and the Bryan Bimetallic Club at Paw- tucket, met him in Boston and accom panied him to this city. A platform had been erected near tbe soldiers and sail ors' monument on Exchange Place and here ex-Governor Davis introduced the Democratic candidate. He was greeted with cheers and delivered a short speech being followed by Messrs. Sewall and Williams. Their stay was confined to an hour, and at 11 o'clock the party took tbe train for New London. As soon as Mr. Davis had finished his words of Introduction, Mr. Bryan took off his coat and for a few seconds he gazed earnestly at the surging mass of people before him. As he did so, a boy about ten years old was raised above the heads in the crowd about ten yard from the platform. The boy was crying and taking in the situation, Mr. Bryan said : "Just hand him up here." The boy was passed along,, and when he reached the platform the Presidential candidate lifted htm over the rail while the crowd cheered again and again. Af ter placing the boy on the platform he f again faced the crowd and with a smile on his face, remarked : "There is no telling but that he may be a boy orator some day." Mr. Bryan said : "My friends, before I commence I want to warn yon to be ware of those men who start the surging in tbe crowd. 1 have found that pick pockets take advantage of large crowds and when vou find the surging going on you will generally find it started by some pickpocket. Yon watch them." (Cheers). After these few remarks Mr. Bryan paused for a bnel tlmegazing again upon the surging mass with c3hJBdJJiMr condition and that result lips. Chairman Davis rose and requested j the crowd to give attention. "You can no--" ' hear from this stage and not half iafly will be able to hear unless you keep quiet. It is useless to crowd up and all try to get in the centre." "Now will yon all stop and stand still for a little while?" said Mr. Bryan. Cries of "Yts, yes," were heard on all sides, and be continued: "I do not come to preach to you a new gospel. The position which we take on the money question is an old position, not a new one. We are not flying in the face of natural laws as our opponents sometimes assert; nor are we trying to overturn the principles of po litical economy. Those who advocate bimetallism are the only ones in this campaign who are telling economic truths and defending the natural laws of trade. When I define an honest dollar as an honest dollar which does not change in its purchasing power, it may give to you a definition which has been a sound definition among all writers on political economy. .When I give yon that definition I am simply giving you a definition whlcb has been given to the world by that distinguished educator who lives in this city and who is an honor not only to the city and to tbe State, but to tbe nation. (Applause. "President Andrews, in a recent work entitled 'An Honest Dollar,' commences the first chapter with tbe words which I shall quote: 'It is always assumed or admitted that the ideal sort of money would be money with a unit, having a steadfast general purchasing power.' When Prof. Andrews describes the ideal money whose unit is the steadfast gen eral or average of purchasing power, he planted himself upon the solid rock and all the financiers of this and other conn tries cannot prevail against the charac ter of this definition. (Applause.) "The poet has told us that 'An honest man is the noblest work of God.' We may supplement by adding that an hon est dollar, wherever it is foand or made, will be the noblest work of man. But, my friends, tbe gold dollar is praised to day as the honest dollar, and those who love It most love it because of its own dishonesty as a dollar. (Applause.) An honest dollar is one which preserves its general purchasing power from day to day and from year to year. Tbe dollar which rises in purchasing power is just as dishonest as the dollar which falls ia purchasing power. "If one of our Western, men advo cates bimetallism and calls attention to the injustice of the gold standard, they say that he lacks education, and when a learned man like Prof. Andrews ad vocates bimetallism and denounces tbe gold standard with emphasis which can not be surpassed, what do tbey say of him ? 'Much learning hath made him mad,' We say that anybody who has a piece of gold sufficient to make one dol lar can have that dollar coined into a dollar. - And the fact that any holder of gold bullion can at any time convert that bullion into money, enables him to charge for that gold Dullion the mint price. The mint price for stiver would be established the same as the mint price for gold has been established. Under free coinage at 18 to V a man who owns silver bullion knows that he can take it to tbe mint and have it con verted into dollars of one hundred cents of United States money. Some of oar opponents have been calculating as to bow much money they could make un der free coinage in buying silver for 60 cents and having it coined into 100 cents. If any of you held silver bu'lion would you sell it to anybody for half the market price and let the purchaser make the profit? Tbe Republican party does not present any financial potter, and they say that the present policy will benefit the people. The Republican party simply proposes to maintain the policy of their platform, and that plat form professes to be bad when it prom ises to maintain that policy until foreign nations come to oar relief. "But, my friends, if yoa believe tbe United States Government should bave a financial policy of its own, suited to its own needs. Its own people, administered by the hands of those who love her, then you can only express yourself when yoa act with those who advocate bimetallism at 16 to 1 without the aid or consent of any other nation upon the earth. It the financiers who want the Government to issue bonds so they can boy bonds, have the right to keep the Government issu ing bonds, all the time putting a debt upon the people, then you, the people, have to be taxed to pay these bonds." New Haven. Conn.. September 88 Mr. Bryan reached New London from Providence at 12 17. A stand had been erected at the soldiers' and sailors mon ument, adjacent to the railway station, and from this Mr. Bryan made an ad dress an hour long to an audience of about 8,000 people. He was cheered frequently and' asked several qaestions by people in tbe crowd, tie said : "Mr. Chairman. Lidies and Gentle men I am informed that I am speaking to-day in tbe county in which Lvman Trumbull was born. When I went to Chicago as a law student I found a place lb bis office, and tor nearly two years was assrciated with him as a student is associated with an instructor, r And it is one of the friendships which I prizs because the acquaintance formed then grew into attachment, and when he was called from earth no one mourned his departure more sincerely than I. I am glad to stand, therefore, among the peo ple among whom he was bore, bee i use in his life I believe that he gave evidence of aoiluy, of courage and ot patriotism those three characteristics which com bine to earn for a mm tbe love and gratitude of his countrymen. "To-day I leave Connecticut I have been through the several New England States, and only one, I believe, I have not been able to visit. I came to New Eaeland to Dreach the cause and de feed tbe principles for which I stand at this time. (Applause) I came because there is no part of this country where those who advocate free coinage are un willing to prtsmt their cause. There is no part ot this country which is exclud ed Irom tbe benefits ot bimetallism there is no part of this country which we are willing to concede to tbe gold standard. (Applause and cheers ) There is no State in this Union which will be benefitted by the maintenance of the present financial policy, and if in some portions of the Union the silver, sent! ment Is not as strong aa in other por tions it is because those portions where the silver sentiment is -weakest are the portions where tle Jas. been the least agitation,', discuriioa anit study of the money questioo. (Applause and cries of "You're right!") You not only have lacked the opportunity of investigating this question which some other portions of the country have hai, but your papers have denounced it as a matter unworthy of study, even if they have not insulted the intelligence of the voters by telling them that only a few people were able to understand the question anyhow. (Ap clause) Some of the Republican plat firms of the Eastern States not only declared against silver, but have declared against agitation. When I fined a man i who is opposed to tbe discussion of public question. I find a man who would feel more; at home under a monarchy than he would in a republic (Applause.. Aeitatioi is nothing but discussion faDolause and cries of "That's scl") and discussion is the only means by which the people can fiad out what is best and remedy the wrong. (App'ause.) A man who denounces agitation, a man who op poses public discussion of public ques tions. would have you suffer and not per mit you to secure the only means by which relief can come, "My friends, vour opponents think that thev can destroy agitation by com uanding it to keep stilL You might as well try to sweep Pack the waves of tbe ocean. (Applause.) You cannot speak agitation into silence. You cannot cor mand it to be still and xtpefit it to obevV Agitation is a result, not a cause. It is a must remain while the. condition re mains. You bave a condition; agitation follows as a consequence, and reform comes as a conclusion; and that is the only way that agitation can be stoppsd, my friends. "What does the gold standard do for the merchant? It -has driven down the value of the goods upon his shelves, while it lett his debts as big as tbey ever were. (Applause.) It has destroyed the ability of people to buy goods, al though the merchant's goods havebeen' bought and are awaiting the coming of tbe customers. Tbe gold standard has multiplied the number of failures and tbe gold standard is putting the mer chant under the complete domination ot the man who holds his note, and he alone can close his store at any mo ment, if he desires to exercise his right as an American freeman to vote as he pleases on tbe money question. (Ap plause). - ' I want to lay down this proposition, that when yoa borrow money of a bank the banker bas no business interfering with your political rights, and tne banker that does it ought not to be permitted to engage in tbe banking business. (Ap plause ) Is there a banker who will dis pute that ? If there is, then he must be a man who believes tbat the right to vote goes not with the citizens but with the moneylender and the man who as serts tbat this is not a Democracy, not a Republic, but a plutocracy in which money and not brains kr hearts rule in this country. (Great applause.) . A voice Where we will be if we get free silver. Mr. Bryan Are you in favor of a gold standard ? The voice I am. Mr. Bryan Tell me why. The voice Because I believe it Is best for the country. Every nation will accept a gold dollar for a dollar. Mr. Bryan Why ? I will tell yon; be cause of its value. The reason why our gold dollar and gold bullion are worth the same is because the law says tbat yoa can convert bullion into, a dollar at the mint. . Tbe voice Well, how about silvei? Mr. Bryan When tbe laws are so, under the free coinage of silver, that the holder of silver bullion can convert his silver bullion into dollars at the mint, that will fix a mint price for silver then, as we have a mint prxe for gold now, and the silver dollar will be worth as much abroad as our gold dollar. (Great applause and cheering.) "Now, my friends, I do not object to have questions asked, because, it I am wrong on this question, there is nobody more anxious to find it out than I am. Bat if I am right and my friend Is wrong, I hope he will be as anxious to get right as I am. (Great applause.) Questions do not hurt, my friends. We are glad to answer qaestions, became there is not a question that can be asked by an ad vocate of tbe gold standard that cannot be answered by advocates of free coin age. (Apolause and cries of "Why don't McKinley come out and answer some of them?") A voice People here .have the im pression tbat when the free coinage o' silver is brought into effect they can take tbeir siiver teapots and coin them into money, Mr. Bryan The gentleman says that the people have tbe impression here tbat under free coinage the people can take silver teapots and their silverware and have It converted into money. It is true that under free coinage any man can melt op a dollar and a halt's worth of spoons and have the silver coined into one dollar and twenty-five cents, if you have a man who is fool enough to do it. (Great applause ) "Now, why will people refuse to melt up their sliver plate? Because it will be worth more as silver plate than it will be worth as silver dollars under free coinage. (Applause.) "And. my friends, ycu can depend upon it that people will not do things whlcb are going to hart them if they know iu That is one of the thinks that you can base your reasoning upon, and in tbat connection I frequently have people aik me, 'Would not it be possi ble i or a man to buy silver lor 53 cents and have it coined Into a dollar and make tbe difference ? (Liugbter, and a voice, ' Who is going to sell it !) The gentleman asks qaestions which shows he understands it. He says who would sell it? Now, when yoa cannot coin silver you can buy for fifty-three cents tbe silver tbat is in a dollar, but when yoa can have that silver coined for a dollar tfeen you cannot fiod anybody who will sell yon that silver for fifty three cents. (Applause.) Now, my friends, I want the business men to get into their heads this one proposition; and without knowing tbat proposition, with out understanding it, they cannot ex pect to reach a correct conclusion of the money question. "1 assert tbat tbe business man de pends for success upon tbe farmers and tbe laboring men. (Applause.) It yoa want business men to prosper yon can not make them prosperous by making tbe money loaner prosperous, because business men do not make tbeir money out of those from whom tbey borrow. They make their money out of those to whom they sell goods. (Ap plause ) And il tbe people cannot buy goods, the merchants cannot sell goods, and people cannot buy goods until they have money to bay goods with. (Ap plause) And tbe way tbe people get money to bay goods with is by selling vsometbing which tbey themselves pro duce. If the farmer cannot get money for what he produces, how is he going to have the money to buy what other people have to sell? (A voice, "Start up the mills. 7 Suppose yoa start up tbe mills; how are you going to dispose of the things which the mills produce unless people can buy the product oi your mills?" George Fred Williams said a few words at tbe conclusion of tbe address. and the party then returned to the sta tion and took the 1.25 train for New York. Newark, September 28. Candidate Bryan's journey from New London to New York was interesting chiefly by his reception at New Haven and his public comment while there on the trouble Yale students gave him the other dav. As if to show Mr. Bryan how many people in the old college town disjp proved of the annoyance which he suffered at the hands of the students New Haven people gathered in force at tbe railroad station to see the Presiden tial candidate. Several thousand were present as the train came to a standstill. Tbe cheering was very hearty as he appeared and tbe few remarks he made were roundly app auded. Mr. Bryan said: "I entered New Eng land when 1 entered Connecticut, and I will leave New England when I leave Connecticut to-day. My visit has been a very pleasant one, and l shall carry away with me only agreeable recollec tions. "There are Yale students here to day, Mr. Bryan," called out somebody in the crowd. "Do not criticise the boys so harshly,' said Mr. Bryan. "I am not inclined to criticise them as severely as some others have. I have been a college boy myself, and I am inclined to- attribute their in terruptions more to youthful exuberance than to any deliberate intention to in terfere with free speech. (Cheers.) I shall always be glad to return to New Haven whea circumstances will permit, and I am sure that whatever may be my subject, I will be able to find persons here wno are willing to listen, even it they do not agree.

A good sized crowd wasnere, and Mr. Bryan was cheered, More cheers cams at Stamford, where quite a throng had gathered. Mr. Bryan arrived at the Hotel Bar tboldi, in this city, at -5 o'clock this afternoon. A crowd of about 200 people gathered about the hotel and cheered the candidate heartily. Mr. Bryan remained at the Bartholdi less than an hour. Shortly before 6 o'clock he started for New Jersey, where he was booked to speak at Paterson and Newark. Mr. Bryan was received by a tumultu ous crowd of over 20,000 people in this city to-night, it was one ot tbe noisiest and hardest crowds to control that Mr, Bryan his faced thus far in tbe cam paten. - Just as the carriage approached the outskirts of tbe crowd the borses be came frightened at bursting bombs and plunged forward. The crowd became almost panic-stricken.' Tbey could cot fall back, owing to the solid wall of human beings behind It. Two police men jumped forward and grasped the bridles, holding tbe horses in check be fore any damage was done. '. With much difficulty Mr. Bryan was hurried upon the platform. The crowd was very noisy and it was impossible to seenre silence for over fifteen minutes. When quiet was restored Mr. Bryan was intro duced by M anion Force, chairman of the Democratic County, Committee. Mr. Bryan's address consumed twenty minutes. He was picked up bodily from tbe platform by a dozen policemen and escorted to bis carriage. 1 1 was with difficulty (bat tbe carriage made its way through the surging mass of people to the depot, Mr. Bryan left at 7.37 for Newark. . It was 810 o clock when the tram bearing Mr. Bryan and his party drew into tbe Erie depot in this city. Large crowds surged about the place and tbey cheered the candidate when he alighted Carriages were in waiting, which the party at once entered. They were driven to Caledonia Park, which is sit uated In tbe west end of the city, three miles distant. The place was reached at 8.40 p. m. ; Mr. Bryan found awaiting him an immense throng, which cheered lustily at his entrance. Ic was an in sp ring sight that met Mr. Bryan's gaze when be stepped upon tbe stage. He was facing an audience of more -than 10.000 people, who were upon their feet, cheering and waving bats and handkerchiefs. Outside was another enthusiastic crowd, variously es timated at from 15.000 to 20,000 people. who," unable to gain admittance, listened to tbe speeches of lesser lights of tbe party. It was with some difficulty that tbe crowd was calmed down and order secured. When this was done, Mayor Seymour stepped forward and intro duced Mr. Bryan. Mr. Bryan was in poor voice, but the audience manifested comparative quiet. The majority of the crowd seemed in sympathy with Mr. Bryan's sentiments, and his many telling points were veciferously applauded. Mr. Bryan concluded his address at 9 40 p. m.. having talked for forty minutes. He was wildly cheered. Mr, Bryan and bis party were then driven to the Erie depot, where they boarded the train for New York. Merit Wins, and that is why Hood's Sarsaparilla holds the abiding confi dence of tbe public.

Gladness Comes With a better understanding of tbe transient nature of the many phys ical ills, which vanish before proper ef forts gentle efforts pleasant efforts rightly directed. There is comfort in the knowledge, that so many forms of sickness are not due to any actual dis ease, but simply to a constipated condi tion of the system, which the pleasant family laxative, Syrup of Figs, prompt ly removes, mat is wuy n is tne onry remedy with millions of families, and is everywhere esteemed so liighlyby all who value good health, its beneficial effects are due to the fact, that it is the one remedy which promotes internal cleanliness without debilitating the organs on which it acts. It is therefore all important, in order to get its bene ficial effects, to note when you pur- chase, that you have the genuine arti cle, which is manufactured by the Cali fornia Fig Syrup Co. only and sold by all reputable druggists. : If in the enjoyment of good health,' and the system is regular, laxatives or other remedies are then not needed. If afflicted with any actual disease, one may be commended to the most skillful physicians, but if in need of a laxative, one should have the best, and with the well-informed everywhere, Syrup of Figs stands highest and is most largely used and gives most general satisfaction.
