This, MI Whedon said, was at the
Lincoln hotel at Lincoln, Neb., June 10
of this year.
The speaker added that in June Mr..
Bryan also acouiesced in a statement
that the silver question was never an

cant his expressions regarding the gold
standard as the price for the support
of the gold Democrats" Mr. Whedon
asked. He replied to his own question:

Charles o. Whedon of Lincoln Cues
tons Bryan's Good Faith.

Atchison. Kans. Oct. 5.-"If Mr.. Bry-
an believed that the gold standard was
conspiracy against the human race.
with all that the term implies; if he
believed that it carries the knife of
the assassin and does its work behind
the mask of a burglar, why has he
changed front now" With these words
the sincerity of Mr.. Bryan was aues-
toned in an address delivered here to-
night by Charles O. Whedon Of Lin
colr, Neb.
Mr.. Whedon is one of the leaders of
the Nebraska bar. and has had init
mate acquaintance with Mr.. Bryan
ard his professional and political ca
reer. His address was devoted to
charging inconsistency and insincerity
on the part of the Democratic candi-
date. the arguments being carried by
contradictory extracts from Mr.. Rry-
ans speeches.
In the course of his address Nh
Whedon said: 1.-The language Mr.. Bry-
~ once used was: L would no moro

ocrats who are now supporting him
and. who refused to support him in 1896
and 1900 have adopted his free silver
theories? Will he assert that he could
now have the support of these gold
Democrats if he had not recanted his
opposition to the gold standard?
In speech at Newark in 1896 Mr.
BRYAN said When Won can prove to

YESTERDAY WAS DAY
FOR SELLING STOCKS
But Not Much Was Involved
and Metal Continues To
Hold Well,
(Rr Frank j. Graf.l

Todey's market shows that there
has been considerable selling Of
stocks from the early morning until
the close of the market, although the
actual trading did not involve mucn
stock. The copper metal continues
to hold well and most copper stocks
are still in good form especially low
priced stocks. Calumet & Arizona is
inclined to be a little weak and clos
ed at s104.50, with stock very scarce.
Greene Cananea is being well sup
ported at 1928 to 1913, although at
these prices very little stock is COM
ing out. Superior & Pittsburs holds
firm at s12.25 with no disposition of
holders to let go at these figures.
DEM Arizona was well protected at
$3.50. Copper Range opened at $50,
and liquidation set in early forcing
the stock down to $5S and closing at
SIS. 20. The entire market looks as
though stocks ought to be bought dis
regardless that there has been a
slight decline in the market. There
never has been a time when stocks
looked more attractive than they do
at the present time.
