indianapolis, Ind, Aug. 15.--The
convention of the American League
of Anti-lmperialists, or liberty con-
gress,' will be called to order at IL
o'clock this morning. The speech of
the temporary chairman, Edwin Bur-
rift Smith, of Chicago, is expected
to lean toward the tacit il not ex-
pressed Endorsement of Bryan, but 1t
is not thought that the convention
will go farther than to express strong
condemnation of imperialism in every
form and degree, leaving the question
of candidates open. II seems proba-
BILE that they will perfect an organi-
cation which shall labor for the de-
feat of Mr.. Mckinley, leaving their
followers to vote for Mr.. Bryan or to
refrain from voting, as they may
choose.
