correspondent Of the New York. World,
telegraphed to that newspaper on the
first day Of Bryan final tour through
Indiana as follows ii. III
= Great multitudes roared about
him everywhere, but the Republic
an managers distributed yellow
badges and urged: the Mckinley
men to mass themselves. at all
points. s IS :. ..,.=s :. .@.s:.- r
The result was bewildering. Mr..
Bryan's way lay through the strong
Republican district, and it was not
until h. reached, Fort Wayne to-
night, the Democratic stronghold of
the state, that he swept all before
him. ..'-ars---zzs5%-: -.
. It is quite evident that Mr.. Han
mas plan is to have counter demon
,strations wherever Mr.. Bryan ap-
pears until election day.
Never has Mr.. Bryan shown his
strong qualities to better advantage
than today. All through the saw.
age tumult he has been serene and
undismayed. At times he has been
for ten minutes continuously sur
rounded by yellow ribbons and
Republicans shrieking :McKinley's
name in his face j
Whatever else Mr.. Bryan may be,
he is man Of steel nerves. The
mob seems to inspire him, and the
more brutally hostile a crowd is the
calmer and bolder he grows. 49,
I have known him. for years, but
he revealed himself in a new light
today. Mrs. Bryan, too, faced the
bowling Republicans smilingly at
her husbands side, hinging a rose
here and there to a rapturous free
silver man. -$ rs =zs % :,= s: =. =

Indiana Mr.. Creelman photographed to
The World from Terre HIaute as foil ows:
News reached him Organ on the
train today that Mr.. Hanna S money is
already moving like q tide through In
diana, and that the Republican leaders
are trying to get Democrats to move out
of their districts SO that they may lose
their votes. - a. &. $ -
Mr.. Bryan soul seems filed with the
passion of the, conflict. He is revolution
incarnate. Today he spoke to mere than
100000 persons, and tonight Terro
Haute is mob glorious Whatever may
be the result of this terrific campaign,
Mr. Bryan has proved here, in the very
heart Of Indiana, that the free silver
idea has taken hold Of the common peo-
pie. " s @ !. IS r.. ..S IT. :. -
All day he has declared that the wal
Of money standards which has rent the
Democratic party will not end On cleo
ton day. Again and sagain he said that
Democrats who desert / now can never
come back except after long penitence
and modification. From sunset until
early morning bonfres danced on the

Bryan's Marvellous Endurance.
The ferceness Of the conflict in this
state was apparent everywhere as; the
! special train fed from district. to dis
trict Great meetings, professions and
barbecues were il progress, and hun
dred Of orators were at.work, and in the
midst Of all this thuaasrous confusion
Mr.. Bryan towers up a born leader Of
| men. lle may be defeated, but if he
lives be will play a great par s IN the
Immediate future. I$haye watched him
| day after day, and he seems to grow
stronger and more self reliant every
hour. Nothing depresses or daunts him.
His marvellous voice seems ind estruoti-
bic, and his brain ID sttirelsss.
Mr.. Bryan seems to ind erstand that
the result Ut this best trial Of strength
/ IN Indiana and Illinois depends upon
himself, and hoS has centrated all his
powers in this one supreme effort to
