SENATOR HILL WILL LUNCH MR..
BRYAN AT ALBANY.

1t Is Believed That an understanding
Has Been Arrived at Between the
Two Leaders Of the Opposing Fac
tiOns and That Senator Hill VIII
the Party-The Bryans' Week of
Rest at Red Hook Is over.
Barrytown. n. Y, Aug. 23.-According
TO present arrangements. William J. Bry-
an Will lunch with Senator David B. Hill
in Albany Tuesday afternoon.
Mr.. Bryan will not say so, but the state
ment is nevertheless true. When the re-
porter of the Southern Associated Press
asked the democratic candidate about the
matter this evening, Mr.. Bryan answered,
after thinking minute or two, that he
was not fully informed concerning the
arrangement for his Albany visit, and
would not give any information on the
subject
There was a rumor at Upper Red Hook
on the day that Mr.. and Mrs. Bryan ac-
cepted the invitation to be guests OF
Chairman Hinkley Of the state demo-
cratic committee at Winnisock Lodge, in
the Catskills, that Senator Hill would
meet him In the quiet of that mountain
camp, where they will be'free from inter-
ruption and from the likelihood of having
too much public attention drawn to their
conference.
Mr.. Bryan and Senator Hill have un-
doubtedly reached an understanding
through those who conducted the nego-
tiations for their consultation, as to the
ground on which each shall stand when
they come together, and with a
foundation to start from they can perfect
any mutual agreement in much shorter
time than they could if there had been
no pre-arrangement.
When Mr.. Bryan leaves Winnisock
Tuesday afternoon he viii be more fami-
| liar with what the democratic state or
| ganization proposes with regard to his
! candidacy. Chairman Hinkley will in all
likelyhood make him better acquainted
with the position Senator Hill intends to
assume Mr.. Hill and Mai Hinkley stand
very close to each other in political mat
| ters, and the belief has been that the
| state chairman is authorized to speak
| with some degree of authority on these
/ matters. That visit to Winnisock Lodge
will extend from tomorrow evening until
/ the next afternoon.
Mr. and Mrs. Bryan win say good bye to
| Upper Red Hook at noon tomorrow and
| proceed to Rhinecliff by carriage. "A tug
/ will be at Rhineclin at 2 o'clock to carry
| them across the Hudson to Roundout
where they will take a train for Big India,
from which place they will drive to Win
nisock Lodge Tuesday. They win leave
Winnisock Lodge in time to catch the New
| York Central train. arriving in Albany at
405 p. M, and will start for Syracuse at
| 9:05
Mr.. Bryan attended at the Duchess Re
! form church in Upper Red Hook this moln-
! ing in company with Mr.. Perrine. There
was no unusual crowd present. Rev. G..
/ d. Lidecker, the pastor of the church. con-
| Quoted the services, and in his prayer he
referred to Mr.. Bryan as follows:
/ "And especially bless the servant whom
! we have in our midst to be thy honored
servant. Fill him with wisdom and power
for the anxiety and fatigue of the coming
days and fill him with hope and confidence
in all thy purposes concerning him in this
hour"
The sermon was preached by DR.. +. .
Robert Barr Of the Associated Reformed
church of Newburgh. He made no direct
references to the democratic candidate
nor the political situation After the SER
vices both ministers came down from the
pulpit and shook hands with Mr.. Bryan,
The position taken by President Thos
Miller Of the Chautauqua Assembly con-
cerning the report that the democratic
candidate will speak at Chautauqua next
Sunday. is endorsed by Mr.. Bryan. Sew
eral newspapers contain a statement from
President Miller denying that Mr.. Bryan
will speak there unless an arrangement
could be made to have Maj. Mckinley ap-
pear and when this was shown Mr.. Bryan
he said. II shall not speak, being inter
ested in Chautauqua work, my wife and 1
will avail ourselves of the opportunity to
see the parent circle. The work of asso-
citation is non-partisan, and the President
is quite right in saying that neither can
didate should speak there unless both are
invited"
A number of people called at the Perrine
residence to-day to see Mr.. Bryan. Mr..
and Mrs. Bryan presented them with but
tons bearing the picture Of the candidates.
