BRYAN A LOVER OF PEACE.
More Than Gold or Silver the Me-
bPaskan Regards the Issue of
MllItarlsm,

Denyer, Col, Sept. 16.-William J.
Bryan opened the democratic cam
paign in Colorado with a speech at
Coliseum hall last night. BY far the
largest crowd assembled thus far dur
ing the campaign turned out to hear
the distinguished Nebraskan and many
hundreds were unable to get inside
the dense packed hall. Mr.. Bryan
dwelt at length upon what he termed
the policy of militarism Of the repub-
lican party, which was not influenced
alone by Imperialism, but that the
strengthening Of the army was as
much for the purpose of aiding capital
in enforcing its demands against labor
as anything else. He characterized
President Roosevelt as a dangerous
man because of his love of power and
war-like demonstrations and insult
able to be at the head of a nation that
wanted to be great in moral force and
not physical force.

yer, how I can bring myself to sup

gospel Of peace infinitely more than

preparing for the roll-call, called for
by the resolution of the Kings county
delegation. 1t WIS only when, as he
himself said, 1t became obvious to his
practiced ear" that the convention was
almost solidly against him. Gov.
Odell was against Woodruff and Gov.
Odell ruled the convention.
In the convention the Woodruff fac
ton was exceedingly enthusiastic and
insistent. But the only thing ap-
preaching a showing of strength was
when his name was first placed in
nomination. But the great majority
of the convention sat silent through
the demonstration. There was no
slight anywhere in the proceedings to
Senator Plat. save in the refusal of
the convention to accede to his de-
clared wish for the nomination of
Woodruff. Every mention Of his name
was enthusiastically cheered again and
again. the whole convention arose
with deafening shouts and applause to
do him honor.

TO REDUCE MILITARY FORCE.
of Infantry to Be Brought Home
from Philippines.

Washington, Sept. 16.-With view
to reduction in the expense of main
tanning large military establishment
in the Philippines, Lieut. Gen. Chaffee,
chief of staff, recently cabled an in
quiry to Maj. Gen. Wade, commanding
the Philippine division, asking If con-
ditions in the islands would not Justify
the reduction Of the present military
force there from four regiments of cav
airy and nine of infantry to three regi-
ments of cavalry and seven of in
fantry. Gen. Chaffee has received a
reply from Gen. Wade expressing the
opinion that the proposed reduction
of military strength was not only prac-
ticable, but advisable.

Wilmington, DEL, Sept 16.-Ths
storm Of wind and rain which swept
over Delaware during the greater part
Of last night was Of almost unprece-
dented violence and great destruction
was caused. The rainfall for "a hours
was sos inches, far exceeding all pre-
vious records. Throughout this city
trees were uprooted and stripped Of
branches, while houses were flooded
from damaged roofs and choked sew
ers. Reports from the country are to
the effect that all crops were ruined
by the food of rain and that all fruit
trees were stripped of their fruit.
Baltimore, Nd, Sept 16.-Reports
from points down the Chesapeake bay
indicate that last nights storm was
unprecedented in its fury and long
continuance. For nearly ten hours
the bay was swept by rain and wind
storm that for a time ragged more
fiercely than any other storm in the
memory Of the Oldest Chesapeake
mariners. The storm was evidently
more severe father down the bay than
at its head. The storm played havoc
with the shipping in the northern
part Of the bay particularly. The
wharves at both Jefferson and Toll
chester were partially washed away,
while sailboats, steam launches and
all light craft around COLCHESTER,
Havre de Grace and Jefferson were
badly damaged. In many cases the
boats were washed away and lost.

BLAMES WICEEDJAPS
Kuropatkin Would Have Won But
for the Enemy.
HANDS CAR A STRING OF IFS"
Gen. OrIOn's Failure to Beat Back
Oku's Advance Intercepted Rus
sia's Scheme and Forced the
Historic Retreat.

st. Petersburg, Sept 15.-Gen. Kuro
patkin's official report, which wal
given out last night, comes as a con
siderable relief as setting at res
alarmist stories of the loss OF guns
the cutting off of divisions and the
death or capture of prominent COM
manders, which have been freely cir
culating here. The report, which ID
very long, enters into considerable de-
tail In the phases Of the battle OF Lilac
Yang and entirely bears out the decla-
ration of the Associated press at the
time that Gen. Orloff's failure to hold
the vital position at the Yentai was
responsible for the breaking down OF
the whole of Gen. Kuropatkin's plan
of battle and turned potential victory
into defeat. The manner in which the
retreat was carried out In the face Of
the terrible condition of the country
and the determined pressure of the
Japanese armies does much to restore
ovn. Kuropatkin's prestige in military
circles.
The report dwells on the terrible
difficulties encountered during the re-
treat at Lao Yang from positions on
the southern front, when "a horses and
whole company Of infantry har-
messed to a single were not able to re-
move the gun from a quagmire. 1t is
shown the retirement from Lao Yang
to the north bank Of the Taitse river
was carried out in good order and with
celebrity under cover of night on Au-
gust 81, when 1t had become evident
that Gen. Kuroki was making de-
termined drive at the Russian commu-
nications north of Lao Yang.
The necessity of retaking the Syk-
wantun heights formed the first break
in Gen. Kuropatkin's plan and lost him
a whole day, September 2, and thus de-
layed launching the blow against Ku-
roki; and when the Russians had Just
regained foothold on the coveted po-
sit!on Orloffs failure to hold the jap
anese advance against the Yentai
mines threatened the development OF
Kuropatkin on the north, intercepted
the Russian scheme and forced the
now historic retreat to Mukden.
The report as given out does not
state the Casualties, but the Associated
press is authoritatively informed that
they were under $1,000.
