What Bryan Says of II.

Chicago, January 12.-William ]. Bryan
arrived in Chicago early this morning on a
business trip. A representative of the As
ISOLATED Press tonight asked him If he had
read of the slight given to Governor Alt
geld by the legislature. lie replied:
IF 1t is true that the republicans did this
in order to show their dislike for Governor
Altgeld 1t will result as such insults al
ways do in harm to those who offer 1t.
1.-THE fact that Governor Altgeld ran
ahead OF the National ticket In this State
is evidence that his defeat was not due to
personal hostility to him. and hardly
think the people will approve of any slight
offered to him in his own position.
Questioned about the defeat Of the Pacific
railway bill, Mr.. Bryan said:
Il am very much gratitied to know OF
the defeat OF the bill Its purpose was TO
fasten a heavy burden upon The Western
States for eighty years to come and the
people OF those States have reason 10 re-
joice at their escape from so unjust meas

opinion OF Consul General Lee, and he has
heretofore expressed it to Secretary olney
He has told the secretary of state that the
instructions, whether soon or late. were
bound to succeed. The last thing General
Fitzhugh Lee said to me as l LETT Havana
was:
=" Please see Secretary Olney and tel
him that today am more firmly convince,
than ever that Spain can not put down tn,
instruction. and that every day 1t con
ues means loss of life and property, with

the Herald from Constantinople says:
Official advices received here from Jeru-

tor and the result was that the two fac

which did not end until the Turkish au-
thorities interviewed to restore der Some
Of the combatants were badly injured, but
1t is not known whether anybody was
killed.
