Yells ot Old Rebels Hare Fire and Vigor. Louisville, May 30.?Surround ed by waving banners bearing the fiery cross of the Confederacy listening to the cheers from the throats of 3,000 men who wore the gray and confronted by the waving handkerchiefs of hun dreds ot ladies, Gen. John B. Gordon, commander of the United Confederate veterans today for mally opened the tenth annual reunion of the order which in point of attendance is already the largest ever held. ah mings conspired to make the occasion a success with the exception of the weather which was about as disagreeable as it well could be. All through the early hours of the morning the rain came down in sheets. For an hour previous to the time sot for the opening of the meeting the veterans and their friends made their way in a steady stream to the hall and by 11.30 it was well filled. A portion of the Georgia delogation, headed by a drum corps, came marching in making the building ring with martial music and calling forth cheers from those assembled in the hall. A veteran from Georgia waked the crowd to genuine enthusiasm when he came in carrying the old battle tlag of the Third Georgia infantry. Scarcely had he taken his seat, when the band struck up "Dixie" and then came the old rebel yell, and it came with a fire and vigor that never was surpassed during the days of the war. On the platform beside Gen. Poyntz were Gen. S. B. Buckner, uev. J. wiuiam .Jones, Hon. J. 11. Reagan, the only surviving member of the cabinet of Jefferson Davis; Gen. VV. T. Cabell, Gen. J. H. West, Col. Thos. W. Bullitt, Col. B. II. Young, Rev. Carter II. Jones, Dr. B. M. Palmer and others. The mayor, .whose speech was received with much applause was followed by Col. Thos. F. Bullit, who welcomed the visitors to IiOuisville in behalf of the board of trade of this city. The.Rev. Carter Jones extended the wel come in behalf of the Commercial club of this city. While he was in the midst of his address the A. P. Hill camp of Petersburg, Va , came into the hall headed by a fife and drum corps which created such a noise) that it was impossible for M Jones to coutinue. Speech were made by Col. Attilla Co Chief Justice Ilarzelrigg, Ge Buckner and Col. Bennett 1 Young. At the conclusion of his a dress, Col. Young turned to Ge Gordon and handed him the ke of the building which had bet erected for the reunion. Gen. Gordon was visibly movi by the reception he met with ai for several minutes stood bowii his thanks. When quiet was r stored again he spoke as followi General, Mr. Mayor and Gentl men of the Reception Coi mittees : No man is gifted enough, ai no words are strong enough tell Kentuckians what we feel this hour, and how deeply i feel it. Shall I say for my coi rades and myself that we a grateful, profoundly gratefu That would be, in the presence such a demonstration, the mere commonplace, the needless slat ment of a patent fact, which y< already know or can plinly re in these moistened eyes ai quivering lips. Shall I tell yi that we are amazed, that * were unprepared for such a d play, such exuberance of hosj talitv, such warmth and prodigi ity of welcome? I cannot s; that for it would be untrue. V knew besorenand what to expe of this great-hearted people. Your distinguished fellow ci zen,Ool. Bennett Young, who w the selected mouthpiece of yo delegates, had assured us in tl city of Charleston in words ferv and eloquent, that if we wou come to Louisville, Kentucky homes and hearts, Kentucky wealth, the products of her un valed pastures, her tenderc lambs and fattest beeves and t contents of her graneries, trar mitted by Kentucky magic in liquid corn and rye?that j these should be ours, the suppc and the solace, the meat and tl drink of these battle-worn met We have come to find not on that it is true, but that the hi had not been told. What can say, then, what can any man si to do to represent to this peop the responsive echoes of o deeply stirred sensibilities? ii possessed the mystic power catch and transmit into bur ing sentences the thoughts these brains and the rythm these hearts, 1 might hope to gi you some conception of our a preciaticn of this Keutucl greeting. Why has not some K ison or some gifted scientu moved by a genius divine, i vented some means of phot graphing human emotions? W1 did not that crafty delver in nature's secrets, who discovert the X rays, give us a double ] rav, powerful enough to expo to Kentucky's view the emotin of these men? If such an instr ment were at your command tl morning, you would see inscribe upon these hearts, in indelhh letters, the beloved names Kentucky. The truth is gentlemen, th vour State holds a plane amoi her sisters that is not only uniqu but decidedly picfi:r? que. New York for II .van. New York, May o! -The Ht aid says W. J. Bryan is practici ly nominated for president win the democratic State conventn of this State meets in this city < Tuesday. There will be no o position worth the name ai overriding all precedents of t convention nearly all of the del gates are instructed to suppc the Nebraska candidate. All planB for opposing Bryi in the national convention we founded on the hostility of t New York delegation and tt having been removed the co vention is assured to him in a vanoe. The conferences held by t opponents of the plan to instru the delegates showed that a m jority of the State conventi* were againRt them and they ga up. With Tammany's vote ai the delegates from the interi of the State who have been i structed for Bryan, his frien claim 275 of the 425 delegates favor of instruction.

Th *y said Kings conn- I es ty could not afford to antagonize , x?
