American Flag Burned by Crowd of
Bryan's Kind of Patriots.


PLEASANT HILL, Mo-, Oct. 31.--An
American flag was burned at a political
demonstration here to-day. The Bryan
forces were holding rally when the special
train bearing gold-standard orators rolled
into town. The train party distributed
literature and a little girl stepped to the
rear platform to sing Republican cam
paign song. holding a flag in her hand,
when one Of the men in the crowd about
the took the flag from her and threw
it upon a bonfire which had been made Of
the gold-standard literature. The party on
the train claims that the act was loudly
cheered by those attending the rally.
At ST. Joseph earlier in the day the spe-
cial train distributing gold-standard litera-
ture was captured by the silverites. When
the train stopped fully five thousand silver
men surrounded it, and but little opportu-
nifty was given the speakers on the train
to address the crowd distribute litera-
ture. Both sides grew angry and trouble
was threatened when the visitors referred
to Missouri as 1.-The home of Jesse James.

DALLAS, Tex, Oct. 31.-Correspondents
for Popocratic newspapers tonight tele-
graphed to their journals a story to the
effect that the grand jury here had to-day
found an indictment against NJ. A. Hanna,
chairman of the Republican national COM
mittee, for bribery and corruption. The
story is without foundation, for the reason
that the grand jury made no report to-day.
1t was rumored on the streets that the Pop
ocrats had hired some one to go before
the grand jury and charge Mr.. Hanna with
offering to pay $4,000 for the electoral vote
of Texas, but the charge was ridiculous
that it obtained no credence except among
the rabid Popocrats, who have been fear
successful next Tuesday.
