1 DANIELS SAYS
 OHIO IS CERTAIN

Chicago, Sept. 25.-Josephus Dan iels, chairman of the press commit tee. was at his desk today at the Democratic headquarters and spoke enthusiastically of the Ohio tour of Bryan.
 "I cannot make any statement con- cerning Haskell or the Standard Oil incident at his time, said Dainels in response to questions concerning the probability of Haskell retiring from active work in the national campaign.
 But I will say this: Ohio is just as surely in the Democratic column as Nebraska, and there is no doubt that Bryan's home state will give him it's vote. Returning from New York where everything is satisfactory, heard Bryan speak in Dayton and Gin cinnati to enormous crowds.
