New York, Aug. 18.-If Mr.. Bryan had
any doubt of the success of his speech
last night he did not show it this morn

newspaper interviews and comments.
The adverse tone of most of these arti-
cles did not seem to worry him in the
least and he seemed to feel especially
gratif1ed in the fact that all the news
papers printed the speech. To a query
as to his opinion of the various criti-
cisms he said with a smile: I did not
expect to overcome all the prejudice at
one blow; neither did I expect to set
the North river on fire with oratOry.
It was not a time for oratory, but for
serious argumentatiVe discussion.
I am pleased with my reception"
