Bryan Still Hopeful.

Lincoln, Neb., Nov. 4.-Mr.
Bryan gave out the following in
reply TO numerous kilograms
from all parts of the country:
The democratic national
committee claims enough states
to give majority in the electoral
college, but the vote is very
close in several of the states and
the result can not be positively
known until the entire vote Is
counted. In all close contests
it is wise for both sides TO watch
the returns to guard against the
possibility of mistake, inten-
tional or unintentional." !"
Mr.. Bryan, when pressed for
something more for the press,
declined. In conversation with
friends he freely discussed the
probabilities, referring to the
closeness of the vote in several
of the states and comparing
notes with them on the chances
in Kentucky, Indiana, West
Virginia and other states OF
apparently narrow margins.
He read all bulletins with in.
terest, but in reply to questions
said he was not allowing the
uncertainty to cause the least
degree of worry. He spoke
cheerfully to all, but it became
evident towards the latter par
of the day that he was growing
less and less hopeful. He was
especially gratified at the result
in Nebraska and took occasion
to earnestly congratulate the
chairmen of the various county
and state committees located

HOW BRYAN VOTED.
The Crowd Barred Their Heads and q
FIssh-LIRht Picture IVES Taken
Of the Picture.

Lincoln, Neb., Nov. 3.-A
brass band played Home,
Sweet Home" as the candidate
stepped from the train, and the
members of the Travelling Mems
Silver Club and the Bryan
Home Guards cheered Justify as
he passed through the double
line.
The band started ahead pip
ing a lively air. The organiza-
ton formed a guard of honor
around Mr.. Bryan's carriage,
and in this order he was escort
ed to the court house to swear
in his vote.
At the polling place Mr..
Bryan was given a place at the
head of a line of waiting voters.
With barred head and uplifted
hand the somewhat worn and
weary candidate took the oath
necessary to swear in his vote.
Responding to a suggestion
of a bystander every one in the
crowd barred their heads, and
as Mr.. Bryan handed his ballot
/ to the clerk of election a flash
light picture of the scene was
taken. Mr.. Bryan was then
escorted to his home where he
spoke to several hundred
/ friends.
He warned them that the
form of this states ballot was
fraudulent, and voters should
be instructed at the polls so as
not to be deceived by the two
sets of democratic electors.
After voting Mr.. Bryan was
escorted to his home by "A mum.
ber of his followers to whom he
said: Ladies and gentlemen,

INDIAN TERRITORY THURSDAY EVENING NOVEMBER s. 1896

In Lincoln on their work in this
city and throughout the state.
During the afternoon Mr..
Bran attended the funeral of an
old friend and he spent the
evening with his callers. During
the afternoon what purported
to be kilograms received by Mr..
Bryan were read in the hotel
lobbies, claiming the entire
states west of the Missouri
river and also Indiana and Min
nesota. The announcement of
these claims, which Mr.. Bryan
afterwards said he had not
authorized, created a wild burst
of applause, caused several
bets to be offered and ultimate
ly resulted in the origin of an
informal procession numbering
several hundred which headed
for Mr.. Bryan's house.
When informed of this dem
onstration Mr.. Bryan quietly
advised that it be suspended
until the results should be more
definite. Upon this hint the
parade was abandoned before
the Bryan residence was
reached.
