BRYAN AGAINST WILSON’S
OEFENSE PLAN
A. P. A. Service.
WASHINGTON, Nov. ‘ 6.—William
Jennings Bryan today came out square
Iv against the plan of national defense
proposed by President Wilson at the
Manhattan Club Thursday night de
( 1 ring that the measures intended by
the executive embrace a departure from
i ur traditions and a reversal of our
national policy.
Bryan professed to see nothing but
trouble looming up ahead of the na
tion in the event that the plans of
■ the president were brought into ef
fect and insisted that such a policy
was a menace to our peace and safety
in addition to being a deliberate chal
lenge to the spirit of Christianity
which teaches us to influence others
by example rather than by exciting
ffar. Bryan's view of the national
defense plan is being widely discussed
by the press this morning and has
urnished much material for the peace
advocates who are sending in hun
dreds of letters to the newspapers en
dorsing his views.

CI-EVELAND. Nov. 6.—The discov
ery of a dynamite plant under the
building occupied by one of Cleve
land’s largest automobile manufac
turing concerns this morning revealed
a plot to blow up the plant when the
building was filled with hundreds of
woikmen. The discovery of the
plant was the merest accident as
the prepetrators had burrowed deeply
under the foundations of the building
and planted a quantity of explosive
sufficient to wreck the entire factory.
When found the time fuse was set
and ready to send the fatal spark
| into the heavy charge of dynamite. The
j (danting of the mine Is undoubtedly
i i he work of Teuton sympathizers who
I have already sent threatening letters
j to the firm demanding the abandon
ment of large contracts for war autos
received from the allies. The police
claim that they have a clue to the
miscreants who are said to he members
I of an association of German sympa
thizers who have been especially ac
tive in seeking to persuade manufac
turers to refrain from supplying war
material to the allies.

terms of the Bulgarian announcement
of the taking of Nish given out by
the Bulgarian war office says:
“A Bulgarian division Interned Nish

atfee heavy fighting. The result was
a part of the general plan of Gen

prill- pal supply point. Practically all
the Serbian strongholds are now In
the hands of the German allies or the
Bulgarians and the Serbians are re
treating to the mountains. There was
bloody and fierce fighting In the streets
of Nish following the Bulgarian at
