It was like being buried In a tomb, not a sound reaching my strained ears, but at last the spirit of depression vanished, and my mind began to grapple with the problems confronting me. Heaven alone knows how long I re-, there motionless, my mind elsewhere, drifting idly backward toi the old home, reviewing the years of war that had transformed me from, boy to man as though by some 'the silence and loneliness caused to become restless.

While I felt convinced there must also be false fireplace on the first floor, ao as to carry out thje deception, the dint candle light made no revealment of, ita position. I could judge very nearly where it should appear, and I sounded the wall thereabout carefully both above and below without result.

Nor' did any noise reach me to disclose thinness of partition. Convinced of the solidity of the wall at this spot, I continued higher until I came to the end of the passage. To my surprise the conditions here were practically the same. Had I not entered at this point I could never have convinced that there was an opening. From within It defied discovery, for nothing confronted my eyes but mortared stone.

I was sealed in helplessly, but for the assistance of friends without; no effort on my part could ever bring release. Yet I went over the rough surface again before retracing 'my steps down to the room below. All this must have taken fully an hour of time, and the strain of disappointment left me tired, as though I had done a day's work. I can hardly conceive that I and yet I certainly loat con- sciousnesa, for wlien I aroused myself I was in pitch darkness. I felt dazed, bewildered, but as my hand felt the edge of the table I comprehended where I was, and what had occurred.

It seemed as though those walls, that low roof, were crushing me, as if the close, foul air was Buff eating. I recall tearing open the front of my shirt to gain easier breath. I walked about beating with bare hands the rough ajone, muttering to myself words without nieaning.

It must have been the shock of thus realizing suddenly how short a time remained in which I should have light which restored my senses.

'From Beply to Bryan--Denounces Bryan's Accusa- tlous. is undoubtedly true that the custom of our party was violated, the convention refrained from ratifying, by a two-thirds' vote, the expressed -wish of a majority. This was done, according to my understanding, at the instigation of Mr. Bryan, who successfully solicited the co-operation of others in an effort to prevent' s'uch ratification. "Mr.

Bryan set forth his reasons for pursuing this course in his speech explaining his own change of vote. He declared that 1 was a candidate at the -primaries of Nebraska as a progressive, and that, upon this understanding, he was elected a delegate and instructed to for in the national convention. "This is correct. I was regarded then and had been regarded for years as a progressive ly the democrats and by Mr. Bryaci.

What since transpired to convince 'Mr. Bryan that, though, in judgment, a progressive only two months ago, and even only one week ago, I am not a progressive now? "'Have I suddenly proved faithless to the principles which I have' uphold steadfastly for twenty years? No. Have il been recreant to my trust as Speaker of the Ho'use of Representatives? No. Mr. Bryan cites no act of mine as evidence of his assumption.

He withholds his vote from me because he will not participate in the nomination of any man whose nomination depends upon the vote of the iNew York delegation," 'Mr. Clark then quoted at length from the statement wftich Mr. Bryan read in the convention, and concludes: "Although Mr. Bryan's words are shrewdly chosen to avoid making a direct charge upon me, the implication is plain. It is that, if elected president of the 'Ignited States, I would consider myself obligated to those whom he mentions and that I would be under the control of those influences.
