Mr.. Bryan's visit to this city will be
the occasion of a great ovation. "A great
multitude of people will go to see and
hear him, but the great aJority will not

M. RICHARD. LAMANDA
Mr.. Bryan's visit to California will
have great influence on the silver issue.
AS he is the recognized leader. 1t will
help to consolidate the silver forces and
keep the issue before the people. It will
materially help the silver cause in the

materialize we will surely carry Cali

great cause of bimetallism before the
people and making it again the para
mount issue in the next campaign. I
also think his visit will consolidate still
more the triple alliance and add i'm
mensely to the ranks of the Silver Re-
publicans, who deserve great credit for
the conscientious and fearless stand they
took in the first battle;" and will also
be the means of converting thousands
of voters who, weary of waiting for that

STAMPEDE At Shiloh
Efforts of Two 9Th Iowa Pri-
Yates Stopped It.

EDITOR NATIONAL TRIBUNE: Thatastam-
peue of three OF four thousand soldiers ana
occur during the afternoon of the second oay
at Shiloh. on April and 2, 1862, there is no
ouestion. So far as know, am Inc only
person now living who assisted In checking
that s,ampede. aud never knew the name
OF lint one other comrade, George w. Jolly,
Co I 9th Iowa. who did assist in arrestlng
the fleeing soldiers and forming line
around stand of colors, and he died some
years ago.
The 9th Iowa was very severely dealt with
on the first day of the fight. The Captain
and First Lieutenant of our company were
both very severely wounded early in the
morning of the first day, and carried from
the field helpless.
The Colonel of our regiment commanded
the brigade, and was early thrown from his
horse Being very large man, he was serl-
ously hurt. The Lieutenant-Colonei rem
dered as no service, and the Major was on
Popes staff ever in Missouri, and large
number of the other commissioned officers
were either killed or wounded. The results
were when night came, and the fighting
ceased on the first day, what was left of our
regiment was in detachments.
On the morning OF the second day I went
with detachment of our regiment out near
where the fighting was going on, but we
were held in reserve. About 1 o'clock
bunch of two or three hundred prisoners
were sent to the rear and turned over to the
officer in command of our detachment We
were ordered to lake them back to the river.
We went back until we came to the trocha
formed of solid line of cavalry with swords
drawn, and with orders not to let any man
pass without permission from the command
ing General. As our commander had no such
orders, he turned over to the cavalry his
prisoners and we began to return to the
front.
There were at least two miles between
this trocha of cavalry and the rebel army.
where the battle was raging fiercely and the
rebels retreating. As we were making for
the rear we met, going toward the 'front.'

WHAT GEN. judah THOUGHT.
Why the Union Troops We're Apathetic
to Morgan's Progress.

TO MOrgAnS Progress.
EDITOR NATIONAL TRIBUNE: In an
account of Morgan's raid Col ]. E. Nc
Gowan, of Gen. Judah's staff, once gave an
explanation of the seeming apathy of the
Union forces in preventing Morgan's gang
from crossing the border, upon which feature
of the beginning of the pursuit there have
been comments by recent contributors to
THE NATIONAL TRIBUNE.
Col McGowan said: There is plenty of
internal and external evidence to show that
Burnside intended that Morgan should cross
the river and run through southern Indiana
and southern Ohio. The Federal Generals
plan had been all thrown away by the neces-
sity of pursuing the raiders and protecting
his supplies and communications; and he
very naturally might conclude that the best
compensation for this sacrifice was to give
the Knights of the Golden Circle of Indiana
and the Vallandighammers of Ohio a touch
of the quality of their Southern friends.
"The troops aud gunboats acted precisely
IS If they were carrying ont the program.
It was also regarded that his invasion of the
North rendered his capture morally certain.
During the whole day in which Morgan was
crossing the Ohio Judah lay within six
hours march Of him to the south.
II am of the opinion that either orders
were issued to the troops and gunboats not
to prevent Morgan from entering Indiana,
or that the commanders of both the naval
and land forces manifested gross carelessness
and want OF enterprise at that point in the
pursuit, neither of which characterized their
operations at any other time from the Sd of
July, when the chase began, to the 26th,
when it closed"
Col. MCGOWAN gives also quite an array of
facts in support Of the foregoing. EDGAR
