BRYAN WITH SCHLEY

Lincoln. Neb.. Aug. I'm comment
ing on the naval controversy w. j.
Bryan takes the side Of Rear Admiral
@"hley. giving him credit for the vic
turv It Santiago and declaring it Il
pity tnat there should be any con-
troversy that seeks to discredit Il
brave. honorable and modest sea
fighter, who successfully led the Amer
lean forces in one of the greatest
naval battles 10 the history OF the
world"
Mr. Bryan denounces the Maclav
history of the struggle and thinks II
strange that historian finds it neces-
sary to "resort to the lowest form Of
abuse in dealing with an historical
character, " adding:
"As a clerk in the navy yards he
should be displaced because of his
outrageous assaults upon man who
has been the patient victim of the most
remarkable series Of attacks recorded
in American history"

States, on "The Growth of the West
During the Last Quarter ofa Century"
On his arrival this morning Colonel

Orman and staff, veterans, Trough
Riders" school children and many
others. At 10 o'clock he was escorted
to North Park where he spoke ~ the

people.
In his speech he reviewed the strug-

In conclusion Mr.. Roosevelt said:

GOES A MILE IN 2:02 IA
Cresceus Reduces His Record a Half IA
Second

Columbus, o., Aug. 2.-Cresceus,
champion Of the trotting turf, added
more laurels to his fame to-day by
trotting a mile in 2;024, reducing by
half second his week-old record of
2:02&. made at Cleveland last Friday.
The first half was trotted in 0599, the
first time that distance has been COW
cred in less than one minute by trot-
ter. The time by quarters was 294,
0:599, 1901 and 2:02i.
A stiff wind blowing directly up the
stretch kept him from stepping faster
than POP.
More than 900 people iourniel to
the driving park to see the greatest
trotter ever foaled, in action. 1t was
brilliant assemblage and intense en-
thusiasm for the horse wasmanifested.
The weather at noon was unpromising
to degree. The sky was overcast
and few drops of rain fell, though
not enough to hurt the track which
was in excellent condition, or keep the
crowd away, but a very strong wind
was blowing from the South. About
. o'clock the heavens cleared and the
sun came out warm and bright, but
the wind did not increase in force.
George Ketcham appeared onthe track
with Cresceus little before 3 o'clock
The horse and driver were royalty
received as they passed the stand.
The champion logged three miles
slower than three minutes and one in
2:22. An hour later he came out again
and after scoring several times, step
ped a mile in 2;2j. At 4:3O o'clock he
worked out for the last time in 2:l54.
fIe evidently had great power in re.
serve and the vast throng waited
patiently for the great test. 1t was
evident that the wind would not sub
side before dark. and at $40 O'Clock
the stallion was brought out for the
trial.
