Bryan Charges Use of Boodle in Illinois Campaign
William J. Bryan accuses Republicans of trying to buy the election with up to a million dollars, while Democrats say they need $100,000.

Mock forecasts a landslide for Bryan, citing precinct polls across several states. A separate note reports a deputy game warden and four Indians killed in a Powell county clash in Montana.
