Bryan and The New York Dinners-
What effect will the $lO Jeffersonian

ner and the $1 Jeffersonian dinner
■ have on the chances of Mr. Bryan for
presidential nomination of the Dftno
cratic party ? They are causing a good
, deal of speculation, and may have

It. is sai I that Mr. Bryan is r»i>* alto

I TWELVE FILIPINOS KILLED-
Rebels Attack a Party of American
Scouts Near Taguig
Manila, April 21 —Two hundred of
tbe enemy, imitating the tacUcs of ti e
Americans formed a skirmish line this
afternoon and attacked a party of
scouts of the First Washington regi
ment, stationed near Taguig Rein
forcements went to tbe assistance of
the Washington men and the enemy
were driven for a mile. Our ammuni
tion was then exhausted and our men
returned, after capturing several guns
and killing 12 Filipinos.
Our loss was 3 wounded.
A party of 18 Americans under the
command of a’captain, went ecouting
north of Guiginto this morning and
encountered a strong body of insur
gents. In the skirmish which ensued,
one American was wounded.
Thirteen Spanish gunboats have ar
rived here, under convoy of the Con
cord and Petrel. While lying in the
waters of the south, these ’ boats were
looted of small arms and cannon by
Filipinos.
American merchants here have
drawn up a petition to tbe San Fran
cisco chamber of commerce, asking
that its influence be exerted to secure
a reduction of tariffs, many of which
are prohibitive.

Signature
of
seen that Mr, Bryan cannot afford to
make many enemies
Bui has Mr Bryan made any
friends in New Yoik by allying him
self with those who gut up the Chica
go platform dinner and those interest
ed in the Jeffersonian $1 dinner? He ‘
has undoubtedly, but they are not
friends wlm can help him in getting a ■
delegation from New York to the
Democratic National Convention fa
vorable to fils nomination. There
wire no prominent Democratic lead
ers at the Chicago platform dinner. It
is eaid there v as not a man there who
could control a vote other than his
own. Even tho leaders of the Henry
George element were noticeable for
their absence.
While the leaders of the Belmont-
Croker dinner didn’t accompush all
they expected to.it is certain that they
will retain control of the machinery of
the party, and will name the delegates
from New oik to the Democratic
National Convention. If Mr. Bryan
should be nominated, however, the
' part he took in tbe $1 dinners would
have the effect of making him votes I
in New Yoik
There is ot.e factor in the situation
which must not be overlooked. It is
the investigation oi lammanv's rule
in-New York city. II that inveetiea
tain should show Tammany in a bad
light Tammany’s ability to get to
gether a combination to prevent Mr.
! Bryun’a nomination wi uhl be greatly
i weakened All things considered, it
i is probably that differences growing I
j out of tbe dmners in New York citv i
I have not lessened Mr Bryan’s chances
' for tbe n amination. —Savannah News.
