have obtained statistics for. the ten
opening weeks. including January,
February. and nearly hnlf OF March,.
During these weeks. to give the cx.

The figures for the opening ten weeks
OF 1907 were almost exactly reversed,
that Is to say. 139.O52 arrived from
Europe, and 1862 took the return
voyage. The steamship companies
this carried about the same number
OF passengers. but last year three
fourths of the steerage travel was
from Europe to America. while for the
corresponding period this year three
fourths of the travel has been from
America TO Europe. There is to-day
no great movement based SO precise

their services. and millions OF letters

Fifteen Loads of Them Come Out to
Hear Bryan.

Lexington, Neb.; June 3.-The
meeting at Lexington was the last OF
w. j. Bryan,s Nebraska trip and in
this CITY he was greeted by the largest
crowd he has spoken to during the
week. The crowds here filled the sta
ton platform and street for nearly
block away. A long automobile pro-
cession escorted the party to local
hotel where banquet was served.
A feature Of the Lexington gather
ing was the presence of fifteen auto
mobile loads of farmers, some OF
whom came from points forty miles
distant An hours speech was deliv-
cred at the opera house. following
which the party left for Grand IS
land The trip from North Platte to
Lexington was marked by demonstra-
tons to Cozard, Gotherberg and Max
we'll and Mr.. Bryan stopped to shake
hands with the crowds gathered at
those towns. At Cozad 112 survivors
of the Bryan club of 1895, boarded
the train and accompanied the party
to Lexington. One of the members
Of the Cozard club was William H.
Taft who was introduced to Mr.. Bry-
an by Richard Mansfield.
Really you do not resemble my
washington friend" remarked Mr..
Rrvan. "And I don't recognize in Mr..
Mansfield the actor 1 formerly knew
nv that name. At Valentine 1 met q
man with my own full name and l
| never before knew Nebraska had so
many men with names OF distinguish

WHAT ABOUT HOLIDAY?
Why Not Name Him to FIJI Jensen's
Place?

The board of directors Of the Com
mercial club held an executive session
last night and though three hours were
consumed in deliberations Of one kind
and another the organization failed to
name a successor for President Jensen
who resigned two weeks ago as presi-
dent of the Commercial club.
Robert Pierce. vice president of the
Commercial club. again announced that
he would not accept the presidency of
the club and the board of directors
were unable to agree on a man for the
place. The bills which have accumu-
lated during the past quarter were
audited and ordered paid and this was
about the extent of the work accom-
plished.
What is the matter with Charley
Holiday, for president to fill out Mr..
Jensen's term. Mr.. Holiday is closely
in touch with the important South
western railway project and other mat
ters of moment to Topeka, made a
good president before and is an enthus-
iastic worker for Topeka's welfare.
