HOW BARKER FIGURES 1T OUT.

Mr.. Wharton Barker, the Popu.
list candidate for the chair now

newspaper man to give bis views

to the wiles Of the newspaper man
with a candor and frankness that
commands admiration. Mr.. Bar.

opinion, Bryan will not be the

The evidence brought forth today was

Or. John G.. Burne Of Chicago. who was
assistant surgeon of the 2nd Illinois vol
unteers while the regiment was at jack
