LETTER FROM BRYAN.
VIII Cheer Connecticut Democrats
Early an September.

New Haven, July 16 (SpeciaD-William Jennings
Bryan will be the guest of Connecticut Democrats
early in September. He has written from England
TO ". H H. Hewitt. of this city, to that effect 1t
was the original intention of Mr.. Hewitt to have
Mr. Bryan come to this city directly after his re-
ception in Madison Square Garden. New York. Mt
Hewitt as stated in The Tribune. wrote to Mr.
Bryan to this effect, relying a promise made by
him before his trip around the world that he would
give New Haven the benefit of one of his first ad-
dresses on his return 20 this country.
Mr.. Hewitt said to-day that the letter from Mr.
Bryan was largely personal. but that 1t contained
the fact of public Importance that he would speak
in New Haven to Connecticut Democrats as soon
as possible after his New York reception. Whether
this can be arranged for August S1-as was at
first hoped-is to be decided. Mr. Hewitt said that
with a number Of important details this could not
be arranged until he had heard again from Mr.
Bryan
Two invitations to speak in this state will be be-
fore Mr. Bryan. One will be the Hewitt plan for a
New England rally in this city; the other the Of
fetal invitation from the Democratic State Cen
trail Committee to address the state convention In
Hartford September II IL. The two dates
are nearly two weeks apart. and It seems unlikely
that he will be able to undertake both obligations.
especially in view Of his trip to the West and the
dates he has conditionally agreed to keep for the
Lincoln and other Western meetings. There is a
possibility, Mr.. Hewitt said to-day that he could
to have them come at about the same time as the
state stat He w |Tse t TO P SySn y tho 20
In this case the New Haven Bryan rally will be
postponed to the date set for the state convention
and Mr.. Bryan will speak twice in this city in a
general way to New England Democrats and then
go Hartford address the state convention
probably on state topics. In Mr.. Bryan could
not be in the state September II and IL he would
probably finally agree to the New Haven rally. as
his one and only appearance in Connecticut during
the campaign. unless. as Mcneil supporters assert
ne would stump the state for the Bridgeport Sena-
tor in case the latter received the party nomna-
ton for Governor.
On the answer. to be received to Mr.; Hewitts
second letter will depend the Bryan schedule for
this state this fall AS the question stands
Mr.. Bryan has given his personal word that he will
be in this city at least as the guest Of the Bryan
Democrats of the state and New England The
date for that affair is to depend on his other en-
gagements, as we'll as his chances of speaking to
the Democratic state convention
