A Town® of Minnesota. There he re
mained in consultation with Mr Town®
and ex-Benator Fred T. Dußols of l)alio
untL to-night, V lien be returned to IJu

Mr Bryan refused to say wbal was dis
cussed during th® meeting, but did no!
deny that th© future policy of the I>©mo
ora tic party was one of the topics dis
cnissed.
*T expect to remain in politics as long
as I live," said Mr Bryan. "I shall con
tinue to advocate and work with both
tongue and i* n for th© principles for
whit h I have fought so long. I shall eon-
Htcn to re.Hd© in Lincoln. Neb."
To th** question of wlat h© thought of
th© proposed reorganisation of th# Demo
cratic party, he replied:
"I have nothing to nay on that subje t
at this time. When the gisrtun© time
comes for me to express myself 1 shall
be heard. 1 shall writ© my view® out
carefully in order that my position may
not be misunderstood. I have neither th©
inclination nor the time to d* ao row
"I received Innumerable oftVrs for my
services, comprising opjsortunlties In near

Mr. Town® arul ora© or two other men in
regard to matters which I do not care to

Mr. Bryan appeared In th© beat of spir

crushed pdlltically. As compared to hi*
appearance on the evening of the e’.©
tion, wh©n he plainly bore the sign* of
the ©train under which h© was laboring,
