Delegates who are close to Mr.. Bryan

Delegates who are close to Mr.. Bryan
want reafirmation in terms, but some
of them are content to say that while
making the reassertion, they consider
other and newer questions Of leading
Importance, and are willing, on that ac-
count, to give more prominence to them.
Others take the position that it would
be invidfous to mention the Chicago
and Kansas City utterances and urge
that 1t will be sufficient to reaflrm the
principles enunciated by all previous
democratic conventions and then pass
to the consideration of newer questions.
A third class would have all reference
to previous party declarations entirely
omitted. 1t is generally believed that
the character Of the platform will have
amarked influence upon the presiden-
tial nomination, and as only majority
vote Is required for its adoption, its ex-
act wording will be awaited with much
interest. Mr.. John Brisben Walker, OF
New York, is urging the adoption of q

Is no little reason for anticipating bet
ter things in the last half of the year.
Half yearly returns of insolvencies
show that liabilities have steadily de-
creased. Railway earnings, that in
earlier months showed losses of five
per cent, or more, in comparison with
last year, exhibit an increase of &c per
cent. for June. Reports from leading
branches of trade for the last week tes-
tify to quiet condition, but scarcely
more SO than is customary at this time
OF the year, while inquiries in several
manufacturing lines promise a better
distribution in the near future. Some
important discussions over wage scales
have reached amicable settlement, and
the protracted glove makers strike de-
ciared of, leaving the local garment
