Mr Brian devoted nlmnrt his entire M>* e h at Medina lo the trust question, a id his rrmaika were based largely on i following statement, prepared by a 10 ai authority. Foundries Closed by i rust. lour years ago there were three foun dries at Medina under separate m.an.tge n: nt, eu It employing from 100 to ISO men. T • foundries were operatrd all through the turd times. Previous to IW6 one of t • foundry owners called his men to- f’ r and told them emphatically that If Mr Bryan was elected they need not mm back after election day as the foul try would be closed. In July, IW. t three foundneo entered the trust, t i er.tr.il Foundry Company, which has a fr irvt'|*i|y In the manufacture of soil rips in .he United States.

He addressed two meetings, one outside, the other lnsde of Music Hall, the larg est auditorium in the city, and every thing he said met with enthusiastic up pl.iuse. Gov. Roosevelt was In fair voice and made his |>lnts with his usual vigor an 1 emphasis.

The record ehows that oil the great Powers accepter! the principles of Ihks gusrantee of territorial integrity. Their expressions on th# point of commercial freedom were not quite as explicit aa In the case of territorial Integrity, and It appears from the study of the Hrltlsh (•erman agreement shove referred to. that particular care haa now heen taken to cleor up any doubt on this point.
