FROST FOR B. BRYAN
Tammany Will Give Him
the Icy Stare.
HIS VIEWS ARE NOT LIKED
Banquet to Be Given i'm New York
Tonight; Said That Affair Like
ly to Lack Enthusiasm,

New York, Oct. 2l.-That the recep-
ton here of W. J. Bryan tonight will
lack the enthusiasm of his past greet
ing seems assured Chairman "Gus'
Thomas of the reception committee
has had this impressed on him in the
last twenty-four hours, although he
declines to admit it.
Bryan is no longer the most well
come of guests to Tammany. But
Tammany's objection to Bryan is not
quite what Bryan and his friends fig
ure out, at least so Murphy says.
The real objection is to what Bryan
is expected to advocate here.
In recent letter the Nebraskan re-
iterates his desire that democrats in
every state which has an election this
year shall approve the platform adopt
ed by the Nebraska democrats on Col
onel Bryan's suggestion. His Monday
night speech will elucidate these prin-
ciples. He will insist, it is said, upon
absolute prohibition of Asiatic immi-
grafton. While this carries out the de-
mand of Pacific coast cities it is I'M
satisfactory to some eastern demo-
Gratis, especially to leader Murphy of
Tammany and his spokesman in con-
gress, Bourke Cochran. Cochran has
always insisted that foreigners admit
ted to the United States under treaty
must be protected from assault, even
though they cannot be assimilated as
Americans.
Bryan is also expected by those in
touch with him, to criticise severely
the United States occupation of Cuba.
He will call on the administration to
declare Immediately for the indepen-
dence of the Philippines, subject only
to the retention of coaling stations
and the Sacred land wherein our hal
lowed dead killed by foreign bullets
in actual warfare now repose," these
cemeteries as lasting memorial to
Americans.
Other policies the Nebraskan will
advocate, if his friends are correctly
informed, are the anti-pass and anti
rebate laws, and he will assert the
time has come for statute making
it illegal for any corporation to con-
tribute to campaign funds. 1t is as
serted he wants federal law applica-
BILE to states requiring the national
committee of each party to print,
prior to election day, complete list
of all moneys received by it within
the state boundaries.
Before he returns to Nebraska, Bry-
an will cir his views on railway
supervision. He wants the nation and
the various states to ascertain the
present value of railroads, through cal
culations by experts of the cost of
production. Then he would widen
both state and interstate commissions
powers so that railroad regulation
shall be modern protection to pas
sengers and shippers and not the
oretical scheme for political purposes
only.
