BRYAN ON THE PLATFORM,
Criticising the Philadelphia Declara-
ton of Principles.

Milwaukee, Wis, June 23.-Col Will
liam Jenning Bryan while en- route to
Chicago from his outing trip in Wiscon-
sin stated today that all stories to the
effect that there have been any differ
ences between himself and Chairman
Jones of the Democratic national COM
mittee were absolutely without fOunda-
ton. Asked his opinion of the Phil
adelphia platform, Colonel Bryan said:
The Philadelphia platform is the best
evidence thus far given of the decep-
tiOn attempted by the Republican party
Taken in connection with the speeches
made at the convention it shows that
the Republican party's platform of 1896
was a deliberate fraud as far as the
promises of international bimetallism
were concerned; that the party's atti-
tude on the trust question is insiEcere
that the party is not willing to state
it's attitude on the Philippine question
and invite the judgment of the people.
Nothing was more manifest in the con-
VentiOn than the military spirit and
vet the convention did not dare endorse
the demand of the president in 1898 for
a standing army of 100000 men,"

AMERICAN BISHOPS.
The American bishops taking part in
the missionary celebration have won
golden opinions for their eloquence and
force. Commenting on Bishop DOane's
and Bishop Dudley's speeches, the
Westminster Gazette. after referring
to their wonderful flow of language, de-
lighted with the force and ease with
which they passed from humor to
pathOs and back again, declares:
"One felt that our English speakers
simply We're not in it, and the rest of
the speeches fell rather fiat in conse-
cuerce. They had something to say
and knew how to say it in the most
perfect form. and primate and premier
leaned back in their chairs and laughed
delightedly at this unexpected outburst
of American forensic power"

one congressman, I think, but am
