Mr. Bryan has made both in his par I
per. The Commerco and in Jifa
speeches, to tho effect that tho navy
league was supported by a body pf J
malefactors of great wealth allied
with the alleged armor plato ring for
tho purpose of maintaining a clamor
of war and improving business In
armor plato. According to Secretary
Arthur Tl. Badman of Ibo longue (he i
latter never ha? nt any time received
any contribution ' from thc armor,
plate ring and does not know of the
existence of any such body.
"The motives of tho thousands
who support tho navy league are
beyond question unselfish and patri
otic," said Mr; Dudman. "A report
