BRYAN IN TEARS.
Pays an Eloquent Tribute to Presi-
dent Mckinley.


dent Mckinley.
Monmouth, ILL.,, Sept 15.-"It Is 2 ma
tional humiliation" was the utterance
of William Jennings Bryan in a speech
here yesterday. The speaker referred
to the shooting of the president, to
whom he paid an eloquent tribute.
Later, when the committee Of the Car
ter II. Harrison league. at whose picnic
Mr.. Bryan was to have spoken to-day,
announced that the demonstration had
been abandoned, Col. Bryan, in voice
that shook with emotion. read the fol-
lowing:
II most cordially commend your ac-
ton in abandoning the contemplated
demonstration. We are all oppressed
by the grief which has fallen upon the
nation. We have no spirit for parti-
san meeting at this time, for PARTISAN
ship is swallowed UP in universal sor-
row.
Political controversies and the prizes
and disappointments which attend
them dwindle into insignificance when
we stand in the presence of the tragedy
which seems likely to rob the nation OF
its chief executive. We all feel the hui
initiation that our country has suf-
Tered, and our hearts are with the love-
ly woman from whom foul and brutal
assassination is taking one of the most
faithful and tender of husbands
Whether the heroic struggle ends fatal
ly, as we now fear or in his restoration
to health, as we pray it will. you have
acted Wisely
When Col. Bryan ceased reading his
face was exceedingly grave. He was
shown the latest Associated Press bull
letin, which he read care fully and with
downcast head and when he looked up
tears stood in his eyes. In voice that
broke he indicated the bulletin wherein
the dying president w rs said to be MUIR
muring Nearer, My God, to Thee" and
said:
isn't that pitiful-isn't it too pitt
ful?"
GODS will, not ours, be done he
read in another bulletin, giving the
presidents last words to Mrs. McKin-
ley, and again Mr.. Bryan was deeply
moved. He made 40 comment, but
tears again sprang to his eyes. He
stood like one looking on the bier Of a
loved one. and the room was hushed in
funeral silence. 1t was with visible
Effort that the Democratic leader threw
off the evidences of grief and shook
hands with the committee, the men,
bers OF which had been sympathetic
spectators.
