REPORT ABOUT BRYAN'S SPEECH.
EX-GOVERNOR STONE SAYS THE STORY
THAT HE is REWRITING HIS GARDEN
ADDRESS IS NONSENSE.

There was a story current at the Hoffman House
yesterday that William j. Bryan was rewriting the
speech that he was to deliver at Madison Square
Garden next Tuesday night, in order to incorporate
in it the answers to the questions propounded by
Governor Roosevelt, relative to what he would do
If elected President regarding the currency Ques-
ton and other matters. Ex-Governor Stone. of the
Democratic National Committee. was asked II the
report were correct He said: Il have heard the
story from other sources and very foolish story
ii is. do not believe that Bryan has fully formu-
lated his speech. and that he has written it over
again l regard the veriest nonsense. Mr.. BRYAN
will not be disturbed by any questions got up
by the enemy, and will make his speech without
dictauon suggestion from anybody
Thomas Taggart, National Committeeman from
Indiana before starting for Indianapolis last night
said Il should not wonder If Bryan will answer

MUCH PUBLIC DISCUSSION.
President stevens Says the Transfer
Regulations Are Just.


Regulations Are Just.
Much dissatisfaction is still manifested
by the patrons Of the street railway syn
dictate with the system of transfers that
went into effect on August 10. The sys-
TEN is under discussion in an informal
mass meeting on every car and complaints
to the Commissioners and to the company
are frequent.
The position of the syndicate is that,
while the transfer privileges have been
curtaiIed in many cases, the system is still
a liberal one and should be satisfactory
| to the people. It is defined in the follow
ing statement made by President Stevens
to a reporter for The Times;
1T is our object to allow any patron of
the allied lines to ride continuously on
them within the District as far as he de-
sires, but to prevent the defrauding Of
the company by return rides for one fare.
To passengers riding from north to south
or in the opposite direction We desire to
allow transfers that Will carry them east
or west as far as they wish to go. In like
manner east or west bound passengers are
supposed to be allowed to transfer TO
north or south bound lines without re-
striction.
I'VE found very soon that under the
old system people were steadily beating
Us. by not only riding downtown and back
but by making the round trip two Or
three times all for one fare. This is
nanifestIy an injustice that must be
stopped. All that we have wished to do
is to prevent its continuance
The law only provides fer transfers
at Ninth and Streets, at New York
Avenue and Ninth Street, and between the
T Street and New York Avenue lines at
Fourteenth Street. It will be seen that
in the new system we allow much more
than the law contemplates.
The first system was experimental as
such a new system must be naturally
with so many new problems to be met
1t has been found defective and is being
amended to remedy these defects, but il
is still much more liberal than that in
vogue before we acquired the different
lines. 1t is possible that the present SIS
lem will also be found defective and will
have to be amended
