announced as soon as decided on. Mr..
Bryan will not make any set speeches be-
tween Lincoln and New York, but he will
probably address crowds at many places
en- route. The journey through parts of
Iowa and Illinois will be made in the
daytime and he will also spend the morn
ing and afternoon through Indiana. Ohio,
Pennsvlvania and New Jersey. 1t is evi-
dent that every demonstration in his
favor along the route of his journey East
will be responded to with semi-political
addresses such as those he delivered in
Illinois, Missouri and Nebraska on his
way to Lincoln.
Among Bryan's callers to-day was
Daniel Flanagan, editor of the Kenton
(Ohio) Democrat, who assured the Demo-
cratic nominee that Ohio was bv no means
a sure Republican State and that the Re-
publican managers realized it.
Hon. Richard P. Bland, Mr.. Bryan's
unsuccessful competitor for the Demo-
cratic nomination. will accompany Mr..
Bryan to New York and will probably
speak at the Madison-sq square Garden meet
ing. He will go as the nominees guest.
Mr.. Bland is expected here Friday.
