BRYAN TO STAY AWAY
Will Not Campaign in New York
Though 1t Is Alleged the Manage
ment Wanted Him.

Lincoln, Neb.. Sept. 10.-Infgormation
was received here this morning that
MIR. Bryan would not speak in New
York during the present campaign, not
w~ithstanding the announcement of the
retirement OF Hill from politics.
Much pressure has been brought to
bear upon MIR. Bryan to persuade him
to go to New York and by his speeches
The Watson speech. and his decision
not to do so. while it will disorganize
the plans of the reorganizers, will
bring joy and gladness to the hearts of
the populists n the Bryan democrats
of Nebraska. A leading populist who
among others. has received information
that MI. Bryan has decided not to
so to New York said today:
Notwithstanding MIR. Bryan's denial
of his part in showing Hill out of poll
tics. Mr.. Hill made his announcement
at the earnest request of the democratic
national committee leaders as a condi-
ton to secure Mr.. Bryan to make
speeches i'll New York.
The reason Bryan mas finally given
up the idea of going to New York is
because he has received not less than
1000 letters from his old followers there
requesting him to remain away. Many
copies of these letters have peer sent
to Lincoln and are in the hands of
the populists. 1t is n fact also that
Thomas Taggart offered to send $50, 900
to Nebraska in an effort to save the
legislature for Bryan if he would come
TO New York.
eff it is true that Bryan has decided
definitely not to go to New York. and
| have information to that effect, he
deserves great credit for withstanding
the pressure brought to bear on him.
Never was a man more beset than he
has BEEN"

Skilled Men May Be Taken Back, But
Packers Say That Most of the

Chicago. Sept. 1o.-The strike of the
Butcher Worklnen's unions which has
demoralized the meat packing Industry
throughout the country for the last two
months was officially declared off last
night by President Michael j. Donnelly
of the Amdlgamatcd Meat Cutters and
Butcher Workmen of America.
Mr.. Donnelly telesraphed the MEM
bers of the national executive commit
tee asking their consent to the all
nouncement OF the end of The strike,
and last night. having received favor
able w from all. he declared tina
the strike of the members of his organ
iZation o end at midnight.
The strike Of the members of the af-
fliated unions at the stock yards who
quit work In sympathy with the butch
ers will be officially called off at a
allied trades. This was decided upon
at a meeting of h central body of the
allied trades, held tonight. The gen.
eral body was at first in favor of con-
tinuing the strike, but Mr.. Donnelly,
who was present, that the
to save his union from being entirely
disrupted he would order his men to
return to work in the morning, no mat
ter what course might be taken by
other unions. AS other unions had no
grievances, but a gone On strike to
ala the OutCnerS, tnere was nOtnlnB
left for them but to follow the lead
Of Mr.. Donnelly, and they, too, decided
to call off the strike as far as they We're
concerned.
When the packers were notified to-
night that it had been decided to end
the strike they announced that they
would give places al far as possible to
the skilled men, but it was stated at
the same time that many of these men
would be unable to secure their old
places, as in many cases the work was
being performed In q satisfactory man.
ner by men who had been secured since
the commencement Of the strike.
1t is expected that the majority of
unskilled men will be unable to secure
their old places again. 1t was a ques-
ton of wage scale for this class of men
that brought about the strike, the
packers refusing to sign an agreement
with n class other than skilled work.
