STREET PREACHER UP
ON YAGRANCY CHARGE
Another 0pen-Air Exponent Of the Cos
pei Principal Witness
Against Him.

Clad in faded gray coat and patched
trousers. with long brown curls falling
over his shoulders. Robert J. r. Brann
stepped from the dock of the Police
Court today to plead with Judge Scout
rot 10 condemn him to the workaouse
as a warrant.
The court exercised clemency ord re-
leased him on his personal bonds to
leave the city.
Brann is a missionary worker. He
was arrested by the police last even
ing for receiving contributions after
preaching on street corner. Edward
A. Guy, another street preacher. was
the principal witness against him, and
seemed especially DESTROYS that the de-
PENDANT be consigned to the -TorkhOuse.
Brann denied emphatically that he
was using the gospel or the word Of
God for his own gain. He said he gave
most Of his money TO the poor and took
the clothes from his back TO provide for
others. Hence his appearance in court
in shabby attire. He said he was or
tginally from California. but has trav-
eled all over the United States preach
ing the gospel on the highways and
byways.
He has a long flowing beard parted
IN the center, and brushes his hair
straight back, letting II fall over his
ears and shoulders. 1t parts naturally

After hearing his stort Judge Scott
decided to let him go on his promise
TO leave the city. The defendant said
he would walk out of the city.

the convention from the District of Co
lumbia- MI Thompson returned TO
Washington last night and was seen IN
his Office in the Colorado Building by a
reporter for The Times this morning.
Judge ParlIer's firm stand on the
money question has, in my opinion
strengthened the ticket. He took the po-
sition his convictions dictated and show
ed himself to be a man worthy OF the
confidence Of the country. 1t undoubt-
eddy required courage to take the step
he took, but he arose to the occasion
without the slightest hesitation. There
was no triCkeTy about it. either 1t was
all Parker straight through
Personally. I am Of the opinion that
Bryan viii fan INFO line and support
the ticket in the West. If he does this
1t viii mean many votes from men who
follow him blindly. Bryan is a bigger
man today than he was two weeks ago
by a great deal. His power in the
convention was unquestioned. Of
delegates as it was with the spectators
in the galleries. bat it was strong, just
the Same. II was wonderful to watch
the audience when he stepped on the
platform. lie would raise both hands
in an affectiOnate sort OF gesture, as
though he was about TO pronounce a
blessing, and the effect would be little
short of marvellous. He looked more
like Il noted evangelist quoting a re-
ligiOus gathering than anything else.
Then Bryan would begin to speak. and
absolute silence would reign.
Speaking of the country generally. II
is certainly Democratic as far as the
popular vote Is concerned and II Is my
belief that we VIII carry the country for
Parker. Parker is the superior OF
Roosevelt in ability and stability. He
will he the candidate Of his party. while
Roosevelt is the dictator Of his. The
Chicago convention was held TO notify
President OF the nomination he ordered
for himself. The St Louis convention
was held to notify Parker formally that
he was the choice Of the Democratic
party.

domestics at the Washington Asylum
Hospital any portion of the 900 days per

Congress TO be divided among the per

House OF Detention. as requested by
Major Sylvester. The list of clerks,
showing the number of days allotted TO
each. will be completed later this after

BRYAN WILL SPEAK
FOR PARTY NOMINEES
Intends to Aid Democrats Nominees
in Missouri Congress
sional Districts.

ST. LOUIS. Mo. July 12-Announce-
ment is made. through friends of VIII
liam J. Bryan, that he will make several
speeches in Missouri Congressional dis
tricts during the campaign. Besides the
Nebraskan's direct assertion that he
VIII support the ticket" this declaration
comprises the sum total Of the TWO time
candidates statements since the Inem-
orabfe convention ended.
Mr.. Bryan departed for his homo, 1t
Lincoln. Neb.. tonight He said that he
felt better after two days Of cUnapara-
tive rest and that he expects to b. fully
recovered within a short time. He came
TO the convention suffering from cold.
which was augmented by the exhausting
ordeal through which he was compelled
to go.
Bryan's friends among leaders of Dem
ocratic politics IN Missouri have been ex-
ceedingly solicitous TO know what policy
he proposes to follow, in view of the
easy and complete success OF Eastern
leaders and of the thorough dominance
of Eastern ideas in the convention It
was felt that Mr.. Bryan's course will be
of supreme Importance in This State at
the election
The situation in State matters Is
fraught with complications, and unless
the Democratic voters in the rural Con-
gressiOnal districts are thoroughly as
sured of Mr.. Bryan's acquiescence IN the
verdict Of the convention the loss OF
three or four districts would be quite
possible.
The results received by Missouri men
from interviews with the Nebraskan
are satisfactory. They understand Il
that Mr.. Bryan will support Parker and
Davis without reservation ~ quelifica-
tons. His promise TO make speeches IS
the best thing that they could wish for
and is assurance that the Democracy
will roll up as large, or larger, majori-
ties in Missouri as in the past
Mr.. Bryan's full statement OF MS po-
sItion and of his reasons in view of the
circumstances for advocating the cleo
ton of Judge Parker and former Senator
Davis will be forthcoming in an early
issue of the "COmmoner. He said to-
day that he did not care tn undertake
an expression until he can have had the
complete rest which he needs 10 restore
him 10 perfect health.
