Two Weeks Ago He Had But the Indianapolis Speech Has Little Hope, Fully Convinced Him. St. Louis, Mo., Aug. 9.—‘‘A few weeks ago I had little hopes of Bry- an’s election: to-day I do not believe he can be defeated.” This is the way Webster Davis, former secretary of the interior under the MeKinley administration, resigned because he could not indorse the foreign policies of his party, sizes up the presidential situation. Mr. Davis passed through union station this morning his way from Indianapolis, where he attended the democratic notification ceremo- who on nies to Monroe City, Mo., where he spoke on the issues of the day this afternoon ata democratic picnic. He had breakfast in the Terminal hotel dining room with Dave Ball, of Pike count, Dr. Neely, mayor of Leaven- worth and S. M. Williams of Topeka, all of whom were returning to their homes from Indiana polis. “IT have been in politics sixteen years but I never before saw such a demonstration as that at Indianap- olis Wednesday.” said Mr. Davis. “It was truly wonderful. Mr. Bryan was athis best and his speech, a masterly composition in every word, was de- livered with rareimpressiveness. The day was broiling hot, but the mighty throng in Military park stood for five hours exposed to the sun’s rays for the privilege of hearing the great democratic leader’s speech of accept- ance. Mr. Bryan read his speech un- til he reached his peroration, when he east aside his manuscript and spoke frommemory. Hisconcluding words were spoken with deep feeling. “I regard the speech as a splendid campaign document. It makes an analysis of the paramount issues and exposes the fallacies of the adminis- tration’s foreign policy in a convinc- ing manner. will certainly be influenced byit.
