Mr. Bryan and the democratic committee, working in conjunction, are making arrangements for the campaign tour through Illinois, Indiana and Ohio. While nothing definite has been determined upon in the way of cities Mr. Bryan will visit. it tentatively has been agreed that shortly after the speech at Peoria, September 9, he will enter the state of Ohio and speak at several of the larger points before touring Illinois, Indiana and New York.

It is expected that before long announcement of the speaking Program will be made by Chairman Mack. TAFT RELIES ON GOLF Says Daily Game Has Been Physically Beneficial. Will Not Quit Riding.

This was Candidate Taft's admissi)n today that he had not "weighed in' during his period of training for the campaign soon to begin in Cincinanti.

"I am convinced that I could have done nothing in the way of exercise that would have done me more good than has the daily game of golf, which I have' so religiously played. But I am afraid that instead of reducing I have simply hardened my muscle. I never felt more fit in my life for any task." Mr. Taft announced this morning that he should not dispose of his riding horse, nor should he buy another. He has become very much attached to the animal he has ridden for so long.

"He is a good horse," be remarked, "and the other day when he stumbled and I lighted on my shoulder over his head he made no attempt to move. And besides," added Mr. Taft, frankly. "I haven't the money to spend on another horse." "Can't we send you one of our best horses from Boston? was a telegram the candidate received today from the managing editor of the Boston Post and to which he declined with an expression of thanks for the interest shown and the offer.

At the place where the suit case and hat were found. the weeds are two or three feefhigh, and being down an embankment, they could not be seen from the railway track.
