BEDSIDE ENTERTAINER
IS LATEST PROFESSION
BRYAN MAKES WAR
ON TAFT POLICIES
By John S3. Nevlns.
(Staff Correspondent of United Press.)
Cumberland, Md., Sept. lJ.j-Con-vlnced
that he has made Inroads Into
the strength of Judge Taft In Indiana,
Illinois, Ohio, West Virginia and Mary
land. William J. Bryan left here tonight
for Deer Parlr where he will spend Sun
day and confer with the party leaders
of West Virginia and Maryland. Bryan
made two speeches here today and In
each of them he charged Taft with re
fusing to play fair with the voters and
with attempting to amend the Chicago
platform. .
The Pernocratic candidate tonight
elaborated his denial of tha allegation
Mot Congressman Hearst, that he had
imnnrtiined the latter to support him
for the presidency this fall, he (Bryan)
in return promising to support Hearst
In I91Z. Mr. aryan saia:
J'The statement of Mr. Hearst is abso
lutely false In every particular. I met
him at his house and also at the house
of Dr. John W. Cox some time last fall
or winter, but at neither place nor any
where else was there any conversation
that could by any possibility be dis
torted into auch a proposition."
- Mr. Bryan held half a dozen recep
tions and found time to conrer witn tne
party leaders of this section of Mary
land. He was Informed that the only
point of danger (a in Baltimore.
It, "but the fact Is that the man at
Oyster Bay has the delegates, and you
will see that If there is danger of
Hughes being beaten the big stick will
wheel the recalcitrants into line."
That Hughes' name will be the only
one to go before the convention, as has
been freely stated, is most unlikely, Be
coming to a aeciarauon tonigni Dy
Speaker James Wadsworth.
"I shall go before the convention," he
said, "If I have not a vote outside of
my own county of Livingston."
That Wadsworth wtll not lack other
support than that of his home county
was shown upon the arrival of the
Washington county delegation this
evening. Under the leadership of I. V.
Baker Jr. It Is announced they were for
Wadsworth. On the whole, the situation
here among the delegates Is a puzzle.
Hughes partisans are strongly for him
and the opposition is fighting the gov
ernor with a bitterness that Is almost
personal rancor.

OPEN SUNDAYS AND EVENINGS
The first week of the Invasion of tne
east has been encouraging to the Demo
cratic candidate. Hia speech tonight
was the thirty-first since Jie left Lin
coln a week ago and In that time he
has traversed Nebraska, Iowa, Illinois,
Indiana. West Virginia and part af
Maryland. Beginning at Baltimore and
Annapolis on Monday he will go on into
New Jersey. New York and New Eng
land and then Into Ohio.
Sure of Kiddle Vest.
Tonight Bryan Is certain in his pwn
mind that the electoral vote of Kansas,
KhrnUn. Town. Illinois and Indiana and
, West Virginia, Maryland and Delaware
has been won over to him. He will now
fight for New York, Ohio, Minnesota
and Wisconsin and he entertains a faith
for Michigan.
The suggestion that state issues be
Ignored in Ohio, as made by the Re
publican editors there, pleased Bryan as
he regards it as a confession that the
state situation Is unsatisfactory.
The suDDOrt or laoor leaaers hko
Gnmners and other heads of the Federa
tlon of Labor pleases and encourages
the Nebraska candidate and every report
o far received by the national commit
tee and transmitted to Bryan is batter
than the one that precedes it.
Both of Bryan's meetings here were
enthusiastic. The attendance was large
and there was the usual enthusiasm,
especially when Bryan assailed what
he termed "Mi. Taft's evasive policy."
Thaeature of the night speech here
was ardefense of the labor plank of the
Democratic platform. Bryan declared
that Judge Taft had seen fit to uphold
the law whiclt1 permits the summary
punishment of labor leaders In con
tempt proceedings and this, he declared,
was not only un.lust but robbed the de
fendants of needed rights. The propo
sition tnat a prosecuting orriciai couia
liave legislative. Judicial and peremptory
punishing power, he riddled as leaning
toward tyranny ana aeciarea so rar as
he waa concernea ne couio see no reason
why the Democratic platform along this
line should not meet the approval of all
fair-minded men.
Bryan will tomorrow deliver his lec
ture on the "Prince of Peace" In tha
ohurch at Deer Park. He will reach
Baltimore at 7:30 o'clock Monday
morning.

Cincinnati, Sept 12. Judge Taft
spent a very busv Saturday at his head
quarters In the Sinton hotel and re
ceived a large number of visitors, but
none or special note except Oscar
Straus, secretary of commerce and la
bor, and the "assistant secretary, Ter
rence V. Powderly. They had a long
conference with the nominee, and dis
cussed the situation In Its general as
pects. After they had departed from
the conference room. Secretarv Straus
said he would take an active part In
the campaign and expected to deliver
several speeches. He will speak at New
York. Chicago and other places to be de
termined later.
Powderly, former leader of the
Knights of Labor, veered away from
the discussion of politics with newspa
per men, stating that ha had come west '
in tne interest or departmental work.
JHa expressed tne opinion that the ma
jority of union labor men would vote In
accordance with their regular party af
filiations. ,
Powderly is Interested in a plan to
turn a atream of Immigration into the
middle west and the south, believing
that In this manner an urgent demand
for farm labor In those sections can be
met. wniie nere ne announced that Cin
cinnati will be made the gateway of
such distribution. Over a half million
letters have been sent to southern plant
ers and western farmers, asking their
co-pperaiion in ine sen erne.
Judge Taft stated that he could an- '
nounce nothing regarding his plans for j
a campaign tour, as nothing had been
definitely determined upon. j
Manager Vorys left New "fork this j
afternoon to return to Ohio. By Mon
day or Tuesday the oommlttee expect I
to be able to complete all plans for his I
various tours. k j
It Is announced that Mr. Taft will not ;
