CROWD VASDENSE
Thousands Attend Democratic
Notification Meeting at
indianapolis.
The Ceremony Made the OCca-
sion of a Popular Party
Demonstration.
IMPERIALISM is DISCUSSED
Mr.. Bryan Confines Himself
Almost Entirely to Phil
ippine Question.
MIR. Stevenson Briefly Touches
on All the Issues of
the Campaign.

INDIANAPOLIS, Aug. 9. Hon. VIII.
lam ]. Bryan and Hon. Adlai E. Ste
venson were in this city officially and
formally notified of their nominations
by the Democrats at their recent Kan
sas City convention to the offices re-
spectively of president and vice presi-
dent of the United States. The cere-
fnony was made the occasion of pop
ular demonstration, and with it the
Democrats may be fairly said to have
begun their national campaign.
The notification occurred in Military
park, a beautifully shaded tract of
ground in the center of the city. The
park contains probably 30 acres of
ground, and it was well covered with
people. In the vicinity of the speak
er's stand the crowd was very dense,
but on the outskirts there were COM
paratively few. 1t would be delicate
undertaking to estimate the number of
persons contained in this vast throng,
but there were certainly many thou.
sands of them.
An Imposing Parade.
The ceremony was preceded by q
parade through the principal streets of
the city, which was participated in by
number of visiting and local Demo-
cratic clubs. These acted as an escort
to the notification party and the caval.
cade was an imposing one. The meet
ing began a few minutes after o'clock
and concluded at $40 p. m. In this
period of time five speeches were made.
Mayor Taggart of Indianapolis adding
q welcoming address to the two Motif
cation speeches of Representatives
Richardson and Thomas and the re-
bponses made by Mr.. Bryan and Mr..
Stevenson. 'g<s,e5 -;;ss-e-s.7-sa slsGss,,-,.
;, The weather was hot, but towards the
close of the ceremonies a slight breeze
alleviated to some extent the suffering
occasioned by the high temperature.
The meeting was called to order in
brief speech of welcome by Mayor
Thomas Taggart of this city, who in
troduced Senator Jones as chairman of
the meeting.
The Candidates Notified.
Senator Jones made no speech upon
taking the chair, but confined his re-
marks to the simple introduction of the
speakers to the audience.
Mr.. Richardson, to whose lot as per.
manent chairman of the national con.
yention fell the duty of notifying MIR.
Bryan of his nomination, made the
first of the notification addresses.
When order was at last restored
Mr.. Bryan made his address, which
was of considerable length. Cheer
upon cheer greeted him at every telling
period.
Governor Thomas of Colorado fol-
lowed, notifying Mr.. Stevenson of his
nomination. Mr.. Stevenson replied in
a somewhat briefer speech than that Of
Mr.. Bryan, but he discussed all the is.
sues of the campaign, not oonfning
himself to imperialism alone.

EIGHT SEND DISPATCHES.
Minister wu Informed the Ministers Are
Taking Advantage of Edict.

Minister wu Informed the Ministers Are
Taking Advantage of Edict.
WASHINGTON, Aug. 10.-Mr. WI, the
Chinese minister, said he had received
information from China that eight for
eign legations in Pekin had sent cipher
messages to their respective govern
ments. This was permitted in accord
ance with the imperial edict of the 9th
of August following all of the foreign
ministers free communication with
their respective governments in cipher. !"
The fact that the legations are being
allowed to send cipher dispatches to
their home offices shows, in Mr.. Wu's
opinion, that his government is living
up to the imperial edict permitting the
ministers to have free communication
with their governments. Mr.. WI says
the consul's cipher dispatches, also re-
ported as having been held up, has been
forwarded.

BRITISH TROOPS LAND.

Detachment Olsen barks tn Protect For
eign Settlement at Shanghai.
WASHINGTON, Aug. l0.-The state de-
partment has received a cablegram from
Consul General Goodnow at Shanghai
announcing that considerable British
detachment Of troops had been landed
for the protection of the foreign settle
ment at Shanghai. No protest has been
made by the American consul general,
but he says the merchants at Shanghai
disapprove Of the action of Admiral
Seymour, fearing it will incite the anti
foreign Chinese.
1t is learned at the state department
that the United States government will
enter no protest to the landing Of the
troops, as it comedies the right of any
power to protect its citizens where they
are deemed to be in danger.

Mr.. BRYAN'S ACCEPTANCE,
Philippine Policy the Principal Subject
Discussed.

Philippine Policy the Principal Subject
Discussed.
In beginning his speech Mr.. Bryan
announced that he would, at an early
day, and in more formal manner, dis.
cuss the various questions covered in
the platform. Continuing, he said:
When say that the contest of 1900 is q
contest between Democracy on the one
hand and plutocracy on the other I do
not mean to say that all our opponents
have deliberately chosen to give to organ
lied wealth predominating influence in
the affairs of the government, but I do
assert that on the important issues of the
day the Republican party is dominated
by those influences which constantly tend
to elevate pecuniary considerations and
ignore human rights. In 1859 Lincoln
said that the Republican party believed
In the man and the dollar, but that in
case of conflict it believed in the man be-
fore the dollar. This is the proper rela-
ton which should exist between the two.
Man, the handiwork of God, comes first.
money, the handiwork Of man, is of in
ferior Importance. Man is the master,
money the servant, but upon all impor-
tant questions today Republican legisla-
ton tends to make money the master and
man the servant.
The maxim of jefferson, equal rights
to all and special privileges to none," and
the doctrine of Lincoln that this should
bea government ''of the people, by the
people and for the people, are being dis
regarded, and the instrumentalities of
government are being used to advance
the interests of those who are in posi-
ton to secure fayors from the govern
ment.
Policy in the Philippines.
In taking up the Philippine question
Mr.. Bryan denied the assertion of Re-
publican leaders that the opposition
was wrong in criticizing the president
during the existence of war and
charged them with not meeting the
issue squarely. Referring to the ratifi.
cation of the treaty with Spain he said:
was among the number of those who
believed it better to ratify the treaty and
end the war, release the volunteers. re-
