Aldamas, Mexico, Nov. 24.-The
hunting camp of William J. Bryan is
pitched near Aldamas, on the San Juan
river. Mr.. Bryan had a good time to
hand at hunting deer tomorrow and
will return to Monterey tomorrow
night oriThursday.
He is billed to deliver an address Al

Mr.. Bryan received kilograms today
a lvising him of the publication of the
list of Republican campaign contribu-
tions. He declined To make any COM
ment until he has read the es of tt Q
contributors.
Discussing the causes that led TOT his
recent defeat. Mr.. Bryan said:
tour party has been at q disad want
age in several ways. In the first place.
it has been divided. The money Ques-
tion was the surface question when
that division occurred, although the
line of cleavage ran deeper than the
money question. That division is
practically healed and the Democratic
the case since 1892.
"Then, b Republican party has had
the advantage OF having most Of the
large newspapers On its side. In fact
our party had very little support from
the metropolitan press in the North.
Third, the Republican party has had
the s lpport of big corporate interests
who exert powerful influence over the IT.
employees. It has also had the advant
age of ha ving the administration, with
an army of ofhce holders, whose sala
ries came from the public treasury and
who therefore can be active in politics
without interfering with their bnsi-
ness. Added to this, he Republican
party being in power in nearly all the
Northern States. the local officers.
State, county and city, are nearly all
enlisted in behalf Of the Republican
party.
"In spite OF these disadvantages, the
Democratic party has q large member
ship and exerts q big influence in
moulding public opinion and it will;
continue to urge reforms that seem
necessary. 1t has seen numbers Of it's
policies taken up and endorsed by the
Republican party. and it will eontinut
to be an educational influence until it
becomes strong enough to secure con-
| troll of the Offices"

when he presented himself at the Court

and Judge Davis signed the papers.
Langworthy, who is a native of Scot

Pedro Miguel, Panama. When the en-
ployees on the canal We're being CLASH

he took out sixteen years ago were void,
because the judges signature was not

COMMISSION FOR
MOUNTAIN VIEW
RESERVOIR PLAN
State Body Drafts Report to
Legislature on Conserving
Potable Supply.
URGES IMPORTANCE OF
EXTENSIVE ACQUISITIONS
Jersey Should Get Control of All
Waters PossibIe-Warning
Regarding Floods.

TRENTON, Dec. 16.-The State
Water Supply Commission in its an
nual report to the Legislature COM
mits itself to the Mountain View reser-
voir system for the conservation of the
potable waters of New Jersey rather
than the method calling for the estab-
lishment of numerous reservoirs in
various sections of North Jersey. The
chief reason for favoring the Mountain
View plan is that the total cost would
be much less than If a number of
storage basins were built.
1t is commented hat with the rapid
growing population in this section
lands will increase in value and the
cost of storage basins will be material
ly increased unless some action is taken
In the very near future. The report
says in part:
1.-THE commission called to their
assistance several of the most
eminent engineers of h coun-
try, who. after a study of the
problems involved, advised the commits
sion that a reservoir with a dam at
Mountain View would best meet the
requirements of the situation and be
best adapted to secure the results de-
slfeu ny the Legislature. In accord
ance Herewith the commission recon-
mended the establishment Of a reser-
yofr on the site last mentioned.
1.-THE commissioners did not lose sight
of the possibility of flood control. The
Passaic valley is especially liable to
visitations and consequent damage.
The commissioners had this fact in
mind when they recommended the Sc
lection of the Mountain View site.
T appreciate the gravity of the
situation, the effect of drought ON one
of New Jerseys largest supplies af-
fords some interesting figures. The
city of Newark. with Its five large
storage reservoirs, was undoubtedly as
well, if not better, prepared for the
emergency than n eastern city, and
yet up to the first of December 1t had
drawn four thousand one hundred mill
lion gallons from it's reserve supply,
and out of the nine thousand seven
hundred and seventy million gallons,
representing a normal stage of the
reservoirs, there remained a supply
sufficient for only six months more of
drought.

panic among the twenty-four families.
Samuel Bernard, of 80 Monmouth

hearing the screams and seeing the
smoke. he rushed upstairs and carried
little Ida Cohen out. When he came
down Roundsman Stillman, of the bicy-
