Gotham Officials Order the Big Ban
ner Taken Down.

New York, Aug. 26-Mr. Bryan now
has another reason for fearing New
York does not love him. The big ban
ner bearing his picture and that of
Sewau which has been stretched from
the St. John headquarters on the Ho-
tel BarthoIdi to a building across the
street, will have to come down, like
Davy Crockett's coon.
Mr. St. John failed to secure a per-
NIT for the exhibition, as the city ordi-
nance directs. Amos R Emo, owner of
the building which holds up the other
end of the Bryan rope, complained to
the authorities the wall was only eight
inches thick. and so heavy a picture
might pull it down
