New York, Aug. 14.-It was not until
one o'clock this afternoon that William
j. Bryan was able to announce def
nitely his plans for the next few weeks.
The decision arrived at last night that
he should take rest at some quiet re-
sort to recuperate from the effects of
the severe strain imposed by his tour
from Lincoln to New York and to give
him the opportunity to write his formal
letter of acceptance. set Mr.. and Mrs.
Bryan to thinking about suitable place
and it was finally decided to accept an
invitation rendered some time ago to
| visit Mr. and Mrs. T.. C. Perrine at their
home. Upper Red Hook. in Duchess
county. New York. A telegram was
sent Mr.. and Mrs. Perrine and when the
| answer was received this afternon say
ing that the visit would be agreeable at
this time, Mr.. Bryan announced his pro-
| gramme. Mrs. Perrine was a teacher
| at the Female academy in Jacksonville,
| Ill.,, while Mrs. Bryan was pupil there.
Mr.. Bryan also knows her we'll, as he
was student at the same time at Jack
| sonvlle college.
| Standing in the vestibule of William
p. st. Johns residence No. l25 West
| Thirty-fourth street. Mr.. Bryan told q
group of newspaper men what his plans
| We're. He said that he, Mrs. Bryan and
| Mr.. Sewall would leave New York over
| the New York Central some time tOmOi-
row forenoon. probably at 1915. for 1rv-
| ington- on theHudson, to stop over Sun
day with John Brisbn Walker, editor OF
the Cosmopolitan. and an old friend.
Mr.. Sewall will return to Maine from
Irvington, while Mr.. and Mrs. Bryan
will proceed on Monday to Upper Red
Hook. They expect to be with the Per-
rines week or ten days and on the con-
clusion of the visit they will start west.
WILL GET OFF AT BUFFALO.
Mr.. Bryan said he expected to stop
at several places on his western jour-
ney among them Buffalo, Erie and
Cleveland. He was not prepared to
give the dates. but it Is known that
he will be in Buffalo August q and
in Erie on the 10Th. At the latter place
he will address the convention of DEM
ocratic clubs of Pennsylvania. He will
reach Lincoln about September ] and
probably receive the notification COM
mittee of the national silver party at
that time. Beyond the information
contained in this statement Mr.. Bryan
had nothing to say. With reference
to his physical condition he told
United Associated Press reporter
with a smile that while he felt that
he had not reached the end of his
physical strength and power. he felt
1t was necessary to have as much rest
|
| in the composition Of his letter of ac-
ceptance. Mr.. Bryan will not make
any speeches, according to present in
tentions, on his trip to Upper Red
Hook. He said his speaking pro-
gramme had not been arranged. but
that he might speak again before the
election. Mr.. Bryan's voice is still
husky, but he looks well and strong.
| The decision to proceed west i'm
mediately after the visit to Upper Red
Hook is understood to mean an entire
abandonment of the contemplated
visit to Mr.. Sewall at Bath. Maine.
Whether Mr.. Bryan will visit New
England during the campaign is doubt
ful, but 1t is said that his personal
inclinations are toward q New Eng
land campaign and he may go there
when he comes to New York again.
