Kansas City, Mo, April l4.-Repre-
sentative Charles A. Iowne of New York,
responding to toast here last night, at
the jefferson Day banquet went outside
his set speech to eulogize William j.
Bryan and to bitterly attack President
Roosevelt Both sentiments aroused in
tense enthusiasm, reference to the Ne
braskan ending in a demonstration that
amounted TO an uprOar Mr.. Iowne did
not refer to Mr.. Bryan by name.

me the duty of referring to our great
standard-bearer of 1885, said he 81

India, must be catching the enthusiasm
of your homage tonight"
Mr.. Towne next read from an editorial
in which sympathy was offered to the
Democratic editor who was wont to write
columns on Imperialism and free silver
al am ms thankful as anyone that the
money question has worked itself out so
satisfactorily, " resumed Mr.. Towne. "But
/ / cannot accept in silence the popular
| version Of why the predicted panic that
was to follow the adoption OF the gold
standard did not materialize. The
panic did not occur, because since 1896
the country has produced enough gold to
supply the money market without ma
terially a increased silver output. We
owe our prosperity to Providence, not to
a policy. When men refused to open
the mint God opened the mines"
Next. Mr.. Towne attacked President
Roosevelt.
"I'm going TO take you into my conf
dence this much" said the speaker, "by
