of many of those on the outside to secure

cradle excitement was the result Mr.
Bryan ceased speaking and waited for the
disorder to pass. But the swaying con-

LONDON, Sept. 3.-The Chronicle, in the
course of an editorial on politics in the
United States, dwelling on the high char
acter of Mr.. Bryan, says: I'VE watch the
contest with equanimity. because we be-
lieve that even if Mr.. Bryan is elected the
economic consequences will be less serious
to foreign nations than was at first antic-
ipated, although English investors may suf-
fer severely at first The struggle is very
to England, because Mr.. Brya2's
arguments might be Mr.. Balfours If Mr.
Bryan advocates reputation on an exalted
scale Mr.. Balfour's views mean reputation
on a more modest scale. Where we cues
ton the wisdom of Mr.. Bryan's campaign
is in its applicability to the troubles OF
commonwealth. Things have not come to
such pass in America as to need policy

the means TO pay have grown less and less.
