has been for several weeks looking
after his interests-that he has been
converted to the cause of sound mon
ey," gold and silver at 16 to l. He
avs Il have learned more Of the
true condition and the needs Of the
producing claSses-the farmer, cattle
men and laborers Of the west, on this
trip than I ever knew before, and
AM at liberty to confess that / have
been compelled to make a complete
change in front on the financial Ques-
ton. You may count upon me to do
what I can henceforwrad to secure
the election of Mr.. Bryan as we'll as
the silver congressman in my district"
In n of Armour & Co.'S shops at the
stock yards a similar vote resulted:
675 for Bryan and 125 for Mckinley.
This vote was also suppressed.
Wherever the men have had a fair
chance to express their views the re-
suit has been an overwhelming major
ity for Bryan.

Hon. Leon Bailey of Indianapolis
was at national headquarters today.
Mr.. Bailey says that IL the election
were held today Indiana would give
Bryan $4,000 majority. Free silver
sentiment is, however, increasing SO
rapidly in the agricultural districts
that he feels absolutely certain that the
state will give even a much larger ma
jority. Mr.. Bailey said:, If there Is
any n state of the Union that is
sure to go for Bryan Indiana is that
one. I know what I am talking about;
a canvass of the state by counties as
sured me Of this fact"

lican party, or a net gain Of 672 in that
county. as the canvass showed that
there were only thirteen anti-silver
Democrats. Similar reports come from
Knox, Coshocton and Wayne coun-
ties.
Hon. w. s. McComes arrived Thurs
day from making a series of speeches
in, Maryland. He reports hat Mary
and is afame with free silver senti-
ment. In a conversation had with
Senator German just before coming to
Chicago Mr.. McComas says that Mr..

Is in Baltimore, and that Baltimore
will go for Bryan by a safe majority.

Populists a been completed in In
diana, the Democrats having ten cleo
tors and the Populists five electors
on the national ticket. This fusion is
perfectly satisfactory to all parties. and
assures Indiana to Bryan by a MAORI
ty of not less than rs. 900.
