the intention of the Ohio state demo-
cratic committee that Hon. W. J. Bry-
an, the democratic presidential can
didate, should begin the speech-mak-
ing feature of his Ohio tour until the
town of Bowling Green should be
reached. This plan was, however, in
terfered with to a slight extent by
the demands of a number of people
who gathered about Mr.. Bryan's car
in the Toledo depot before the train
pulled out from that point. The train
had been brought to Toledo from
Saginaw via Detroit during the night,
and had arrived at Toledo in the early
hours of the morning. 1t was about
half-past six when people began to
congregate in the vicinity of Mr.. Bry-
ans private car, and it was not long
until the clamor became so great that
the national candidate was compelled
to hurriedly dress himself and make
his appearance.
The next stop was made at Bowling
Green, 20 miles out, and the third at
Findlay, the center of the Ohio gas belt,
The Bowling Green speech was made
before breakfast and the Findlay
speech Immediately after the close
OF that meal. Mr.. Bryan announced
during the breakfast hour that Mrs.
Bryan would join him on the 9th INST.
in New York and remain with him
thereafter TIL the close of the cam
paign. He said that after leav-
ing New York and making the tour
of West Virginia, Maryland, Delaware
and New Jersey. he would again return
to the Empire State and probably make
several speeches on the occasion of this
second visit.
Portsmouth, o., Oct. 13.-During the
afternoon Mr.. Bryan made ten-min-
ute speeches at Xenia, Washington
Court House, Greenfield and Waverly.
He reached Portsmouth at seven
o'clock and made his only evening
speech at this point.
Mr.. Bryan concluded the first day
Of his Ohio campaign in this city Fri
day night. He was met at the depot
by a tOrchlight procession, consisting
of men both on foot and on horse
back, and escorted to a square in the
center of the city, where he spoke
from a platform in the open air. The
meeting was by far the largest of the
day and it was thoroughly enthusiasts
tic. The republicans also had a torch
light procession in the city, with
speeches in a public hall by Senator
Spooner and Hon. w. D. Bynum. AS a
consequence the city was full of red
fire and of political enthusiasm. The
lines of march of the two parties were
so arranged as not to conflict, and
there was no physical clash.

livered Wednesday by William Jen-
