BRYAN's VISIT
Preparations for His Reception-Com
mittee Announcements

The response to invitations for the
banquet to be rendered Hon. w. J. Bry-
an on July 9Th are coming in rapidly
and as result the executive committee
of the Silver Republican club Is pre-
pairing for large gathering that even
ing.
The club has received many urgent
requests from several sections asking
that arrangements be made to have Mr..
Bryan make short address on the way
to Los Angeles. The committee does not
know the day Mr.. Bryan will arrive or
what speeches elsewhere than Los An
geles will be to Mr. Bryan'e wishes. and
as soon as 1t can be learned and whether
his health will permit of speeches other
than already planned for the commit
tee will Immediately make the an
nouncement.
George B. Cole, T. W. Duckworth and
E. T. Stuart of San Bernardino have in
formed the committee that San Bernar-
dino will have large delegation in Los
Angeles on the 9th of July. Frank l..
Anderson of Santa Ana was in town yes-
terday and stated that Santa Ana will
be we'll represented. The executive
committee will very shortly announce
the program for the day.
A visit to the clubs headquarters will
convince one that If an interest in Mr..
Bryan's coming is an indication of South
ern Californias feeling toward the sill
yer question, this subject is indeed a
lively one.

What Was Done Yesterday on Wall

NEW YORK, May 27.-The market was
quite strong for a time today. but the
rather sensational slump in the Rubber
shares and the large selling in Baltimore
and Ohio put q stop to the rise and also
to the activity Of the trading. The volume
Of the dealings In all stocks for the three
hours of trading after the noon hour was
only about one-third of that for the two
hours before noon. The lack Of confidence
in the stability of values on the part of
the professional traders. who still control
the market almost altogether, was illus
trated by the promptitude with which they
proceeded to take profits on rather slight
provocation. Those who were doing the
bulk of the trading are now evidently in
the market for O short turn, though there
was some continuance today Of the COM
mission house buying which has indicated
Weakening of outside interest in the mar
ket. The market was remarkably duh
at the periods of decline. London appeared
to be buyer of nearly all the inter-
national stocks which fell below the Lon.

don account were narrow, but are mostly
losses. The bond market was character
