London, March 2l.-The Daily Chronicle
today publishes another of the series Of al

it will contend that the statements
that the claim to territory in the interior
is based upon the fact OF possession and
occupation by the Dutch in the eighteenth
century. are disproved by the very refer
ences to the documents cited.
The Chronicles article expresses fear
that the entire case will be vitiatcd by the
assumption that the Dutchmen's rowing
descents upon the coasts and rivers OF the
territory claimed constitute effective oc-
cupatiOn.

to deal with detail on the 18th instant,

After much preparing and much re-
hcarslng and much advertising and very
much expectation, we have the great
Madison Square Garden performance OF
Mr.. William Jennings Bryan, popocratlc
nominee for the presidency. This per-
Torrance was to, be the greatest Of MIR.
IryAn'a life, rs well 1t might have been
without having any very solid merit,
Among other things It was to contain
"many n>w und pleasing metaphors not
hitherto heard OH any stage"
There Is n notable cffOr, to pack the
speech with metaphors, Just as there Is
In Il u marked cnGeavor to point the pro-
ductIon with dramatic cllmaxcs, and In
these respects the speech Ia a c%onsplcu-
GUS failure, AS n s~tHtcSmanlikc produc-
ton, worthy OF u man who uSpir.,3 to the
presidency OF the United States, It Is IL
s;ill more conspicuous failure.
There Is not a single idea In the speech
worthy OF a chief magistrate Of the
United States. Tho whole scheme Of the
pdoductIon Is to array those who have
nothing against those WHO have some
thing. and t!lore who have something
against those who have more; that Is to
ray. It Is a demaEogue's% haranGuc.
