BRAVO! WELLINGTON! Multitude Acclaims the Senator at Music Hali. strong Denunolutloua or Republican roller Arouse tho Great Audience to Excite dient? (Baltimore Sun, Oct. 19.) When George L. Wellington, senior Republican United States Senator from Maryland, rose last night on tho broad stage at Music Hall he probably faced an audience greater than any which be lias ever addressed. He.

a Republi? can Senator, stood up before the thou? sands of his fellow-citizens und de? nounced his party, repudiated Its nom? inees, scoffed at its doctrines, riddled with the most withering sarcasm and invective Its prelomions und its false? ness, while the mass of humanity be? fore him went wild with enthusiasm; The people cheered and cheered and cheered again the courage and the pa? triotism of the man who spoke to them. They shouted aloud In a great chorus that they knew he was speaking the truth; and when no would have stopped begged him to "Go on! Go on!" They tossed their hats In the air and allowed the uncontrollable enthu? siasm with wh'ch the speo er I them to sweep them clear out of their scats im.ii at limes lue ciOWd a whole, men and women, was upon Its feet swaying toward the platform, yell? ing at the lop of their lungs, stretch? ing out their hands to this man who told them he was willing to clasp hands with any shade of political death, but would not bow the knee nor surrender the last vestige of his manhood to a party which called upon him to follow where bis convictions and his con? science told him he should not go. THK OCCASION AND THE MAN. Few men In this State have been given the welcome that was accorded Senntor Wellington Inst night by his audience. It was a great moment in his when be faced the crowd? and it could not have helped being a proud one.

There were many Republi? cans on the stage as well as on the floor, but not one single word of re? proach, nor a breath of resentment, emanated from them. On the contrary, everywhere In the the and known as such, could I i si en cheering and applauding with the most enthusiastic Democrats In the hall. The tlrst utterance of the believe in the Declaration of gave the crowd Its cue. The words had hardly left his lips before the storm burst, and for minutes not unrnnr was terrific. As he i rogressed Senator Wellington grew stronger and his grip on the feel? ings of the crowd lightened, until he swayed them at will.

Ills every sen? tence was pregnant and full of mean? ing, delivered In a voice and with an earnestness that left no doubt of the intensity witli which he believed the things he said. ROOSEVELT." At one lime In his speech he paused and, throwing Wide his arms, said: My countrymen, am a Republican; not a McKlnlcyite, a follower of Lin? coln, not a servant of Hanna. Having faith In the high ideals of the patriots of the Revolution, I cannot now bow in submission or jinn In tiie mad rantihgs or dervlsh-llkc bowlings for war of Theodoi Roosevelt" This came early in his address and before he had gotten well Into tho heart of his subject. It sufficed to Show the crowd that Mr. Wellington was not afraid tu say what he thought from that moment they were his.

"The supreme-the of this campaign," he said, "is Iinepri ollsm. You cannot by ribald Jokes laugh it away." This statement was the key to practically his whole speech, and he plunged Into the heart of the matter with arguments and facts. He reminded the people of his opposition to the Spanish war long before It be? gan, and traced the various unconsti? tutional steps taken by the Adminis? tration from the close of the war until the present time. DANGER IN M'KINLEY'S rOLICY. "Sirs." said he, "there is danger lurk? ing everywhere, but greatest of all the links In the Infamous chain of Impe? rialism to lie forged about the Ameri? can people is the foreign policy of the present Administration." He boldly charged that there was and Is secret understanding between McKinley and Great Britain.

He reiterated the now famous conversation on the question of tho Paris treaty which he had with the President, and again charged the President with having broken faith with him, failure to keep his solemn pledge and trickery In getting him to vole for that treaty. Senator Wellington said that he knew he was being called a "rebel" and a'traltor." I ill In stentorian tones clared that "It is a good thing for hu? man liberty thai there Is a rebel now and then." He believed, his said, that he was just a little too big to draw personalities into national politics in spite of the charge made. The Presi? dent was ere lite 1 by him with having Intentions," but as surrounded by evil and malevolent Inlluenees hich he was loo weak to resist. REFERENCE TO CLEVELAND, A reference 10 Grover Cleveland's bulldog tenacity and the statement that a tyrant was better for the Re? public than a weak man elicited a great shout of applause, which was followed by a still greater outburst when he asked what would have become of the rterublieun Vice Presidential candidate If there had been no war Spain. "He will come to-morrow." said Spiii tor Wellington, "and tell you again about himself at San Juan Hill, but he will forget to tell you that had it not 1 een for the colored troops, who saved hi in.

be would not he In tell you how bo shot a Spaniard In the back." WILL VOTE FOR BRYAN. Senator Wellington's conclusion was full of dramatic fire. He said: 'Tor that great tribune of the people, for thai greatest exemplar of the common Must Httve Cork llcl.net?. Army offh ers connected ith the Quar? termaster's department were considera? bly surprised at reading dispatches in the papers of the sufferings of the Amer? ican lion in china, from the heat, on account ol ihelr hats. It was the belief th it tho regiments sent to China id beau equipped with cork helmets and that their campaign hats had been dis? carded.

The beat of the sun Is dang'r OJS. but ovciluatlng of the digestiv! oi gnus Is even more so. To oveicome Irrllutlon and other stomach troubles there nothing to Hosteller's Hlomnch Bitters. No matter hi iong you may have suffered rrom constipa? tion, Indigestion, dyspepsia, liver and kidney troubles, the Bitters will cure you. For fifty yearn tho Bitters has hold its own In spite of many imitnters.

It purifies the system, and creates a rr.rtv appetite. It is an excellent tonic for the nerves. Try it. people; for that man who Is without en equal In the hearts of tho ntnsso3? I will cast my William Jen? nings Bryan." At this the audience burst Into a tumult of applause. Every man In the crowd seemed to be on his feet, thous? ands of arms were waved and a roar of cheers rent the air.

The cheering lasted until Senator left the stage. As he was leaving the ball by the Maryland ave? nue entrance a crowd of about 500 was massed around his carriage ami the Senator drove away amid more cheers. PEOPLE CAME EARLY. Senator Wellington was practically the only speaker at the meeting, and his appearance on the stage was await? ed Wltli great Impatience by the crowd, which began to gather long before the doors were opened. The strength und populn-lty of the speaker was demon? strated by the fact that at 6:15 o'clock between thirty and forty persons, in? cluding six or eight women, patiently wabed outside the doors, although the meeting was not to begin until 8 o'clock.

At 0:46 o'clock several hun? dred had assembled, all eagerly waiting to be admitted to the hall. From that time on the crowd surged toward the hnll from all quarters. Long before the speakers reached the ball every sent was filled and hundreds Of persons were standing In the oMes nnd behind the stage. The galleries were jammed, and It was estimated that a thousand persons were unable to got in. Promptly at o'clock Senator Wel? lington and the committee, headed by Mr.

S. S. Field entered. Senator Wel? lington walked Immediately behind Mr. Field, nnd was followed by Ma vor Hayes, Major Denny.

Chairman Van diver. Robert P. Lench. nnd others. The crowd applauded the whole party and gave cheers for Wellington, Bryan, Hayes, Field and the Sun.

Anthony Hope's emotional play. "The Prisoner of Zenda," was the an ruc? tion at the Academy of Music yester? day, matinee and night, playing to large business.

Tho play is well kn to Norfolk theatre-goers, having been presented here several times. The story is one of deep Interest, and the netlon affords opportunity for excep? tionally clean work, requiring people of decided talent to do it Justice, while the court surroundings call for Lit tl llant and elaborate costuming and stage settings, which add to the dtu matic excellence a picturesque feature which Is pleasing to the eye. The company was composed of ca? pable people. The Impersonation of the dual roles of Rudolf, the King, anil Rudolph Rassendyll, by Mr. Vaughn Glnsser.

It Is. In brief, a hum? orous and ludicrous'expose of certain characteristic French doilies and foibles of married life. It has been called in New York a companion piece of "Tho Cay Parisians," because Its complica? tions, like those of the latter ploy, re? volve around a restaurant Incident, and because it is full of the rush and go and lively fun of the other play.

Evans, under a salary of per month, to remain at tlie Pioneer Fire and Salvage Com? pany's engine house on Thirtv-sixth streets, during the day and night, to ring the alarm in case of fires, nnd take the engine to the scene of the conflagration, so that the members of the company who follow their daily vo? cation at the manufacturing establi .1 ments, can meet the apparatus and operate it. The petitioners ask this favor of Judge Portlock on the ground that fires that have recently occurred here have demonstrated the fact that, however willing or self-sacrificing the members of the fire department are so much time Is consumed In spreading the alarm and in getting the men to the engine house and carrying the appa? ratus by hand to the scene of the con? flagration that the flames generally gain too much headway for any essen? tial good to be accomplished. But with a horse kept at the engine house the necessary protection can be afforded property by the use of the chemical engine.
