lie GETS ITS SUPPORT
THE NEW YORK DEMOCRACY WILL
DE ON HAND.
Tnmmnny Anxious to Have the Sill
yer Candidate Speak Again In
New York City.

Upper Red Hook, N Y, Aug. 21.-
Every indication here today has beer
toward what Is settled fact, that Will
liam j. Bryan expects and has beer
| assured OF eastern support. Letters
continue to pour in asking him &c
speak at eastern points. Nearly every
city of any size between New York
and Chicago has asked him to make
a stop. and without exception the invi-
tations have come from the leaders of
democratic organizations. Mr. Bry-
an showed no surprise this morning at
the statement that the New York
state organization naa decided to sup
port him. He did reflect upon a little
statement that Senator Hill had told
Dahforth he would support and work
FOR him (Mr. Bryan. He said in rela-
ton to that question: ut Is not Sem
ator HIS custom to speak through
others, and l doubt If Mr.. Danforth
gave out statement purporting to be
made by Senator Hill. The senator
VIII probably make his own announce
ment"
1t was said here today on very good
authority that Senator Hill would
take part in the demonstration in hon
or of Mr.. Bryan at Albany on Tues
day night. The statement needs au-
thentication, however.
The receipt of a letter from Leader
sheehan of Tammany. asking Mr..
Bryan to speak in New York, added an
other chain to the circumstances lead
Ing up to proof of thorough under
standing between Mr.. Bryan and the
New York democracy
The published statement that Rich
ard Croker had approved Mr.. Shee-
hams and Tammany's course in indors-
Ing Mr. Bryan, caused the candidate a
great deal of satisfaction, however. and
he said that he had always believed
that all the great leaders would fall
into line, except perhaps those who had
financial interests with the gold side
of the issue.
Congressman Sulzer arrived here to-
night, and was closeted with Mr.. Bry-
an. He brought with him Professor
Van Buren, Densloe, formerly a profess
sor In the Chicago university, and a
writer of silver literature. When the
conference was over, Mr. Sulzer said
that he could not divulge the reason
for his visit, except that Professor
Densloe desired to visit Mr.. Bryan.
How Bryan Spent the Day.
Upper Red Hook, N. Y, Aug 21,-
Candidate Bryan worked all the morn
Ing on his letter of acceptance, and on
his mail. He will spend the afternoon
at nearby fishing resort. After read
ing the newspaper account of the al
legged support of the ticket by the New
YORK democrats, he said he did not be-
lieve the situation had been exagger-
ated, and he always believed the New
York democrats would be true to the
party nominees. From Syracuse. Buff
falo, Rochester and Albany, Mr.. Bry-
IN has received assurances that ar |
engagements for his meetings in those |
localities are entirely in charge of the |
democratic county committees.
After his attention was called to the |
'eport of Croker's Endorsement of the |
ticket, he said he was gratified to find |
so many eastern democrats falling in |
o line. and added that before the cam |
'aign closed he expected the co-opera-
ion of all democrats except those
whose pecuniary interest might be ad- |
ianced by the gold standard. 1t is
aid that Dr. Jenkins of New York
rave Bryan an intimation that Croker
VIII be with him. Jenkins is a brother
n-law of the former Tammany chief.
