Has No Knowledge of Bailey Debate.

Lincoln, Neb., Sept. 29.—William J. Bryan, who reached home from the south tonight, said he knew nothing about his proposed debate on the tariff with Senator Bailey at Atlanta, Ga. All he had heard, he said, was what he read in the papers, and until he had opportunity to look over telegrams and mail he could not answer any questions intelligently. Mr. Bryan said if he should engage in a joint debate with the Texas senator it could not be before the middle of November, as he had engagements which would occupy him until then.
