he awoke and was told that he was In
the camp of the enemy. The sound
ness of Mr.. Bryan's sleep was due to

his getting up, dressing himself and
holding a long-distance telephone o n
versation with Chairman Mack. who
was in Chicago.
MI. Bryan was in the depot at Terre

was talking.
Had his train not been a trihe late
in departing he would have been left.
Back OF his car again the Demo-
cratic candidate once more undressed
and the soundness with which he slept
was interpreted as indicating that the
news he had received from his political
manager was anything but unpleasant.
