For an hour Mr.. Bryan spoke on the
subject of silver, repeating former argu-
ments in new phrases and then man in
the crowd asked Mr.. Bryan to say some
thing about the tariff
What is the use in discussing the tariff
question" Mr.. Bryan responded, "until

Mr.. and Mrs. Bryan were conveyed from

receiving most enthusiastic ovation ali
along the route and at once started for
jamestown.
OLEAN, N. Y, Aug. 39.-Mr. Bryan
made the trip from Hornellsville to James
town in a special car furnished by the
Io,, nv,f fhak k-o;
a committee of reception from Olean to
| jamestown. There were few stops. A
| big crowd had gathered at Wellsville, but
| the train whirled past SO rapidly that all
| the candidate heard was tie echo of the
cheers and the faint strains of band.
| Cuba was the first stop. A big crowd
was there and Mr.. Bryan shook hands
with many. The train reached Olean at
$40 P. NJ. and Mr.. Bryan was given rous-
ing reception. Mr.. Bryan spoke from the
| rear platform of the car. 1nree thousand
people were in the crowd and they cheered
with vigor.
JAMESTOWN, N. Y. Aug. 2s.- Mr..
Bryan arrived at the jamestown station
at 7 40 P. M, and was greeted with cheers
along an embankment overlooking the
track. He and Mrs. Bryan were taken to
the Sherman House, whence, after sup
per, they were conveyed to Celeron, on
Chautauqua Lake, IN special trolley car.
The convention hall at Celeron has a
seating capacity of 5000, but fully 1000
were jammed into it long before the Bryan
party came at 8 o'clock. Outside there
were thousands struggling to get to the
doors. The party was entirely without
police protection and had to fight hard to
keep from being crushed by the curious
men who swarmed around them.
When Mr.. Bryan stepped upon the plat
ho eyroafod with q
cheer, which in its intensity suggested the
Chicago convention. Every one stood on
their chairs waving handkerchiefs, and
the cheers kept up for several minutes.
After this began the trouble which came
almost to being panic, and under the
conditions there panic would surely
have resulted in loss of life.
Frank Fl. Mott introduced Mr.. Bryan,
who stepped forward ano stood waiting
for quiet. The people kept crowding in at
the door and pressing to the front. Mr..
Bryan begged those in the aisles to get out
lest panic should result and by word and
gestures implored them for order, but he
could not get l.. Mem bers of the commit
tee tooks turns at exhorting the people to
keep back but they were not needed. One
excited man in the gallery got hearing
and cried: "Go out for heavens sake.
There will be panic and people will be
killed"
MT. Bryan declared tnaC ne would not
speak under such dangerous conditions
Mr.. Siblev, one of the committee, an
nounced that Mr.. Bryan would leave the
hall and talk in the open air If the people
would go out. Finally the intelligence
was conveyed to the people that Mr..
Bryan wou' talk outside after the indoor
meeting and Mr.. Sibley would talk out
side Immediately. Several hundred were
induced to leave and then, after thirty
minutes struggling against the determin-
alton of more people than the hall would
hold to hear him, Mr.. Bryan was able to
begin his speech.
The address delivered was largely on
the lines of his speech at Hornellsville to-
day. He put the audience in good humor
Immediately by the statement that when
SO many people gathered together on such
an occasion and put themselves to SO
much personal discomfort in a banner
Republican county, he was afraid to go
into any Democratic counties to speak.
He devoted himself almost entirely to
the issue of the campaign. At the out
side he predicted that there would be six
teen Republicans for every Democrat lost
by the Chicago ticket. He accused his po-
litical opponents of having brought about
panic to secure the accomplishment of
