Y., Dct. 11.—Senator Da- Tid Bennett Hitt arrived here from Al bany shortly after noon today, amid the.boomlDg of cannons. He was met at ilib depot by a committee of promi nent Democrats' and the fourth brigade band. A large crowd throated the streets an^ gave three cheers for Hill as he alighted. At his hotel several hundred people were watting to pay their respects. The senator was given a rousing three cheers several times during the recep tion.

Mr. fiiii.leit the hotel at 8 o’clock under the escort of the committee of arrange ments for the rink. A baud preoeded the carriage to the hall and the streets were alive with people. Camions roared and much colored lire lit the way to the meeting place. The rink was crowded long before tile meeting was called to order, and over 5,000 people crowded into a seat ing space of 3,000 capacity. Many were unable to gain admission to the hall. The enthusiasm was unbounded. 'Senator Hill’s entrance to the hall was the signal for tumultuous and long continued applause. It was a recog nition of which any man might be ^ proud, and Senator Hill expressed his acknowledgment, under such circum stances, with that well-known nod of “te head. The meeting was called to order by Col* Yale, chairman of tho A^ l i rocmtfo county committee, and Henry J. Mowrey was named us chu,r- wan. Tho latter introduced Senator Hill, pny.ng him a high compliment as to his sturdy efforts iu behalf of Dcmoc racy and congratulating him -on his mavked success in the cause. - Senator Hill stepped forward to ad dress the audience, and this was the signal for u lori-coutlnucd outburst of applause. “I know of no more appro priate place in which to open the- ’po litical campaign," ho said, ••than be fore the united Democracy of Onon daga county. It is with pleasure that I recall the fact that my iirst nomina tion for a slate oillco occurred m iho city of Syracuse and that during all my political care*r the Democracy of this city tins been among ir.v earnest supporters. I am also reminded that county was the birthplace of that dis tinguished and sterl.ug Democrat and statesman Horatio Seymour, from whoso lips I first learned the lessons of true Democracy, and that It was also the boyhood home, for many years, of the present Democratic president of the United States, Grover Cleveland, where, struggling with honest poverty, he acquired tlioso habits nml princi ples of economy which linvo always been distinguishing features of his official administration in state and na tion. Recollecting all these circum stances, it was deemed most iltting that tho first words in’bchhlf of Dem ocratic principles should he uttered upon tho soil rendered interesting by such pleasant memories. 4 *it !s my desiro and Intention to conduct upon my part an honorable campaign, worthy of the inipqpiant public questions at issde between tho two principal parties. •Taots and anrunrents are the wjup- t>ns that I shall Invoke*, rather than vll- lizcation. Ir* -great poUUeji contests principle* and oat men Should be esson- Hally the eomtrolUm? tomtom.” The speaker* paid a mgh compttraen/t to tae rnvny good aintttles of Mr. Bur ton, the Republican candidate, mention ing him as "the gentleman whom Mr. Platt selected.*’ ‘"We should not permit our oppo nents,” he ontlmied. ‘Ho obscure the real issues involved 3n this election. Wo decline ito bentitle the important ques tions which divtde. the tw* groat par ties by entering upon the discussion of the abuse* pertaining to the police de- p&rtmene of a ohiglc city, as though the correction of euch abuses should be iqade a party quwbiora.

Its purpose was openly • avowed on -the floor of the convention to be to oecure for the future tfie con trol v>f the legislature of the state to the Republicans. "Fellow Democrats, let me tell you. In all seriosnww. thntthe success of this scheme at the poll* means the absolute control of the legislature to the Repub licans for all time to c’ome. The parti san* who contrived this scheme of in- luet’ce delight to prate about the ‘deal ing’ of a single senatorial dHtrlct by the Democrats, and yet here they un- bliKhingly propose to eteal a whole etat**. •1 appeal t*b our party friends every where to arouse to the danger which oonfnDitts in this mutter, nnd, laying ited? ail predtffce*. dUippoIrv.rmnts and prefrrmcen. unite together to presrrre the Ufa of our party, now sariously Im- perf'ied.” He then paid Wa attention to the Amr-rican Protective Aseaci-ition, con demning It In scathing terma Speaking of President Cleveland’s administration he sail; "Ip all its dr- pa/rtments 1th as been honest, consist ent and conscientious and deserves the confidence of the people. Therefore, you should remember that one of the Issues the people are tSa pass upon this fall In this state is the approval or disapproval of Mr. Cleveland’s edmin- istration. Not one of un regret the splendid vote we gave Mr. Cleveland In 1S92. In conclusion. ‘Mr. Hill said: "If the nomination which I have reluctantly accepted under the circumstances with whrtch you are ftmllhr shall be rati fled by 'the people. I shall assume the office under no obligation to any ring, machine, cabal or political clique, and free from any entangling alllmcos whatever, and with the sole desire to discharge my duty to the whole people according to the host of my tbSlity. "To party friends, I have only to say t'ha'l past differences shall be l’org-U- ten, and that all interests, -all sections and all factions shall be treated fairly and alike. I have consented to make this canvass, not to gratify any per sonal aimWMon, but to assist in aKKng the Democratic cause, which Is nearer and dearer to my heart, and with which 1 hiave been Identified all my political life. “I regret that certain very estimable gentlemen In New York city and Brooklyn have announced thedr unwil lingness to. give me their support at .the election, and express a desire to advocate 'a third -ticket. I deplore .such action, not. In accusing them of any Injury -to myself, but the Democratic cause, which itheir unwise action im peril. *. "They know as well os I <3o that this nomination was iroHany of my seeking, and that for a week I .‘-ought in every honorable -way to be relieved of the burdens and responsibilities which its acceptance Imposed, but I found It Impossible. I beg only to suggest, and hope, -that if they cannot see their way to give me their support, that they will loyally support my honorable as? sooiates upon this ticket, DanleJ N. Lockwood and Charles F. Brown, whom I trust will consent to ‘the use of their names as candidates upon the third ticket, if a third ticket there tnusft be. Tam willing to make any sacrifice of'pride, of feeling or of ad vantage .which will aid the Democratic oause or any of it3 candidates In any respect.” Xhp senator’s reference to Grover Cleve land, the A. P. A. denunciation, his own desiro not to run, and many other points, was heartily cheered by the audience. After the meeting, Senator Hill held a public reception at the Yates hotel and fahook hands with a great many people. He will leave for Bingh-Tmton tomorrow morning, where he speaks tomorrow night. Saturday i^ght ho will address a Demo cratic meeting in Oneida and will then re turn to Albany, where he will spend Sun day. NEW NEW YORK CONGRESSMEN.
