BRYAN WELCOMED HOME.
Tremendous Ovation Given the X
braskan in New York Proudly
Greeted by Thousands.
Williqm Jennings Bryan, of Nebra
ka, wh arrived in New York harb(
Wednesday afternoon and spent ti
night with friends on a steam yac:
down the bay, landed in New Yoi
city Thursday ifternoon at 4 o'cl
and was the recipient of a contin
ing ovation ton that hour until nig
when he had finished a notable eig
ty-minute address before 20,000 pe
sons gathered in Madison Square Ga
den. Mr. Bryan outlined clearly ai
vigorously the principles lie thoug
should guide the Democrats in the
next campaign.
Greeted by nearly every promine:
Democrat in the country, and accoi
panied by them, Mr. Bryan was driv<
from the yacht landing at the Batte:
4 to the Victoria Hotel. le was co
stantly cheered by those on the crow
(d sidewalks. Once at the hotel I
was fairly imobbed by thousands (
hiis adilmirers, Ws called upon for
imlproiptu speell and then shoc
hands for more 11lhan an hour with i
apparently nevereiidiiig line of cifi
en's. ie dined with his family at
friends and then was (1driven in :
automobile to Madismn Square (ln
den. where his welcome home w
'made complete in a series of son
of the most remarkable demonstr
tips New York has ever known. T1
Ga'rdeh meeting was presided over 1
Mayor Tom L. Johnson, of Clevelan
There were brief addresses by Gove
nor Jos W. Folk, of Missouri; Augu
tus Thomas, the playwright; Har:
W. Walker, of the Commercial Tr
vellers' Anti-Trust League, und
* hose auspices the reception w
given, and Mr. Johnson.
Mr. Bryan 's speech was a clea
out outline of his ideas'as to what ti
Democratic policy should be. TI
election of United States Senators 1
the people; regulation of trusts by tl
Government, a universal eight-ho:
day; a settlement of all internation
disputes by arb)itration rather than r
sort to force, and revision of ti
tariff-wvere some of his points. ?M
Bryan declared, however, that lhe w.
merely expressing his owvn opinion at
not attempting to forecast the polie
of his party.
Mr. Bryan declared that the trus
were the great issue of the day. I
called for the enforcement of* ti
crimintal clanse of the Sherman ani
t,rust law and the placing of tru
controlled articles on the free list.
He went into the question of ti
Government ownership of the ra:
roads at great length and declari
that what lhe had seen in other con
tries had served to strengthen his co
viction on the subject. HIe sawi
danger in centralization, however, ax
for this reason advocated the Fedor
ownership of the truuk lines, and tI
State ownership of the local lines.
The speaker gave the Preside
some praise for what he termed hx
adoption of Democratic ideas.
Mr. Bryan also addressed an ove
flowinwvk meeting out the Garden. I
was driven to his hotel, where he i
personally greeted by Win. Randoly
j Hearst, who had been loudly chee
ed as he sat in a box at the Garde
meeting.
The Reception at Madison S'quare
New York, August 30.-Such a we
come as seldom in this country's hi
tory has been accorded to a priva
citizen was triven to William Jennini
Bryan at Madison Square Garden t
night in the celebration of his retux
.a from a'year's absence, spent in for
ign travel.
As the guest of the Commerci
Travellers' A nti-Trust League M~
.Bryan was greeted by more than 2(
000 persons, who filled the gre;
structure from floor to upper galler
At the same time the streets and
1- avenues outside the Garden were
1- choked for blocks by other thousands,
o who stood patiently for hours for the
privilege of even a fleeting glance at
is. the distinguished visitor. The inter
11 ior of the Garden was a waving sea
n of color. Every person in the audi
I- ence had been provided with a minia
)r turo American flag, and every cheer
' from 20,000 throats was accentuated
a, by the waving of 20,000 tiny staffs
I bearing the Stars and Stripes. -
it When Mr. Bryani entered the hall
e the proceedings, which already had
-o begun, were brought to a temporary
y pause while for eight minutes volley
ig after volley of thunderous cheer roll
3s ed through the great building. When
r- Chairman Tom L. Johnson, in his in
ie troduction of Mr. Bryan, referred to
3r the guest of the evening as "the first
id citizen if not the first official of the
te laild-not yet the first official," and
s, Mr. Bryan rose, the great gathering
Lii broke out in unrestrained cheering,
11 while the band played ''Hail to thel
ie Chief.''
So touched was Mr. Bryan by the
welcome that, as he stood waiting for
the cheers to subside, his eyes filled
with tears and he strode nervously
from side to side of the narrow plat
foiln.
''How ean I thank you for this
welcome iome?'' he slid.
''My heart would be ugratefut if
it did iot conscerate itself to your
>r service. It was kind to prepare this
LO reception. It was kind of Governor
it Folk to come here all the way from
'k Missouri. It was kind of Tom John
k son, that example of the moral cour
age we so much need in this country,
t to lend his presence here.
'It was kind in you to fully recoi
r- iense me in being absent so long from
my native land. I thank you. I re
Ld turn to the land of my birth more
it proud of my citizenship than ever be

The doors of Madison Square Gar
it den were opened at 5.30 o'clock, and
by this time there were hundreds of
n icket holders, present clamoring for
y admittance. Police lines had been
- formed three bloeks from the Gar
- den entrances. In this way the ear
e Iv eomers were well handled.
The immense auditorium. withIi its
" liers of halconies and galleries risinl!g
up to the height o t lie great ]lass

d- just back of the speaks' stand.
r- The hall was devoid of decoration

f- During the interval before the meet

Is ed merrily. Such tunes as "Mary
land,'' ''My Old Kentucky Home,''
r- ''Way Down Upon the Suwanee Riv
ie er'' and other melodies of the South
ie called forth tumultuous applause, but
i wvhen the first strains of ''Dixie''
ie were sounded the thousands of Bryan
i' welcomes were on their feet in an
al instant, and the cheers drowned the
e- hand for a time.
10 As each notable Democratic visitor
r. entered the hall and wvas recognized
is his name was called and Ihe cheering

7Y Twelve thousand persons, many of
them women, .were seated by 7 P. M.,

h The loss (of a bundle of portraits
r- of William J. Bryan taken in London
n has an element of mystery in it. Per
haps called ''the most striking .por
tritit of Mr. Bryan ever published,''
I- one of the London series. The Bryan
B- trousers are shocking to the sartorial
be soul. Full and floppy at the ankle,
is they fall in f'lds frem the knee, aind
~- sign of crease there is none. The
'n coat, a sta.tesman 's frock, fits fairly
B- well, but has no distinction no char
acter is too ample in the skirts, and

r. pointing. Th'le set of the erav'at Mr.,

hand ,resting on the back of a settee
and the other is half thrust between
the buttops of his coat. IHe stands up
straight, a fine bulk of a man; and
his expression is consciously states
manlike.
What will occur to an admirer of
Mr. Bryan is that Ihe should have a
better tailor. His fame requires it
and his form deserves it. Where til
bundle of portraits is Scotland Yard
and the embassies must employ all
their resources to find out. One look
at the trousers in the ''most strick
ing'' picture of Mr. Bryan should put
them on the trail of the criminal.
Could he he anyone else than an art
ist, tailor who resented the garment
on Mr. Bryan 's legs and desired to see
him taleen in trousers that would add
to his dignity as a citizen of the world
and its leading statesman?
