against the Russian centre, a lit

$50 charges and these must have
been expended many times, as se>
veral hundred thousand shots
were fired between sunrise and

Gen. Kuropatkin's order to

Louis, in my belief, to even makea fight
against the reafirmation of the Kansas
City platform. BY the time-the conven-
ton meets | am confident the sentiment
will be such that Endorsement OF that
platform will be a ~foregone conclusion"
Mr.. Bryan, in his speech before the
Holland Society in New York last night,
made a vigorous attack upon the trusts.
1t had been planned that his topic should
be peace, but other speakers drove him
into an arraignment of the trusts. In
part he said "a greater danger than
any labor organization is the debauchery
of elections with money, the buying OF
franchises and the corruption OF govern
ment. These are dangers far greater
than any labor organizations present to
this country"
