William J. Bryan admitted today that he had re ceived an emissary from the new pro gressive party. This emissary was k'raneis J. Heney, who led the fighting for Theodore Roosevelt in th'? Republi. an national -convention. To Mr. Heney i.» credited a share in the organization of the progressive party after the Re publican convention had adjourned. Mr. Bryan, however, saw the <’ali fornla man only for a moment. It was evident that ho was not minimizing the attention he Is giving to the Democrat ic convention. "I saw Mr. Heney for a moment." said Mr. Bryan In response to a direct question. "Will you say what the conference was about?” he was asked. "I prefer at this time not to discuss the matter," the Nebraskan answered. Bryan said that he had not seen Sen ator LaEollette, who was reported to have come from Washington for a con sultation. Bryan was seen at his hotel this morning just before he left to attend a meeting of the committee on resolu tions that will write the Demo'cratic pla I form. “I can sing this morning with fat less of a tremble in my voice than those other gentlemen can.” Save Your Sympathy, Says Bryan. He had just returned from an all night visit at the. home of Mayor James H. Preston. Both Colonel Bryan and his wife seemed much refreshed. Mrs. Bryan was dressed in white, with a big hat covered with poppies. The Ne braskan wore his usual alpaca coat, no hat and carried the inevitable fan. His expression was pleasant. "Mr. Bryan, you made a ndble fight and I want to offer my sympathy," said one of the many visitors in the room. Before he had finished his sentence, the Nebraskan interrupted. Do not offer sympathy for me. Of fer it to the other follows. They fee! the worse. Those gentlemen are the ones w ho must worry." "I am glad to see you feeling in that spii'it.” volunteered the visitor. "I am perfectly happy today." Bryan replied, and he turned to smile at his wife, who was talking to a group of friends. "I can sing with less of a trem ble in my voice today than those other gentlemen. I feel that I am right: so why should I worry. Let me tell you something. I enjoy following a man in a speech when I know that what he is saying is not what he wants at all, and that what he says and what lie thinks are two different propositions." Illinois Contests to Go to Convention BALTIMORE. June 26. "We ap proach the meeting of the committee on (ii'dentials with serenity and confi dence. knowing tliat the cause of the Illinois progressives is just." Tills statement was made today by William H. Sexton, corporation coun sel of Chicago, who will present the cause of the contesting delegation. "Sexton will be more serene, but less confident after that committee gets through with him. He means that lie knows the cause of that bunch is a lost cause —not just." This was the retort of Roger Sulli van. national committeeman from Illi nois and head and front of the defense side of the ease. No matter which ,-idi wins, the fight will go to the tioor of the convention That is made certain by assertions from both sides. "We are very hopeful that the cre dentials committee will give us jus tice." said Mayor Carter Harrison, of Chicago, "Im is loading the contesting delegation "I should hardly say that we ate confident the committee will do this, but we are hopeful. If we lose there we shall certainly take an appeal to the' delegates on the floor of the convention. Roger -eems to feel that he ha--' e\ ei 'thing sewed up. hut w o re fuse to believe it." Mr. Sullivan was equally sure that the Illinois tight wilt have to he fought out upon the fleet. "(if course Hartison is mistaken, as usual," he said, "but If by any unex pected misadventure the credential'' committee should vote to seat the In surrectos from our state we should certainly present out ease lo the dele gates themselves for final tlectsion They ought to bear In mind that the' have not got Judge Owens down hero with his ax to chop down the doms of the convention hall."

He was sentenced today by Judge L 8. Roan, in the supt riot- court. He showed no [tertutballon.

By JOHN TEMPLE GRAVES. BALTIMORE. June 26.—1 f there was any doubt of,Champ Clark's nomina tion for the presidency yesterday, that doubt has almost disappeared today. There is not a break in the ('lark line from Massachusetts to California. They entered the convention a pha lanx and will remain unbroken. Even the stoutest of the Wilson, Underwood or Harmon men are tree to say that if Clark can hojd his vote together through the second ballot he is sure to win. Clark can hold his delegates through a dozen ballots and increase their'num bers every ballot up to- the last and triumphant one. Georgia's ballot, instructed for Un derwood, will go to Clark after the sec ond ballot. South Carolina's delegation, unin structed but credited to Wilson on the first ballot, will jo to Clark after the second. There will be a stampede to him after the third ballot New York's Vote All For Clark. Three things have occurred which almost insure Champ Clark's nomina tion. New York's 90 delegates, under the unit rule, will go for Clark! Never before in any national conven tion have Mr. Murphy and his Tam many men mingled so freely with the delegates and the people. It is the subject of universal comment. They have been genial, approachable and friendly with everybody. It is evident that the Wigwam and its chief have made up their minds in this conven tion to ascertain the people's will and to do It. There is absent any indication that they are here to trade and barter, and present everywhere the spirit that in dicates a wholesome change in Tam many tactics, and a closer and loyal study of the people's will. Murphy's Quiet Canvass. The story is told here upon absolute authority that Mr. Murphy two weeks ago. in conference with his lieutenants, determined to And out the popular man among bis followers and friends. Through his agents he set on foot an investigation in New York, whose re sults astonished him. Nobody was so licited. nobody was commanded, but ail the Tammany clientele were, impartial ly interrogated. The result was astonishing in its revelation of Champ Clark's popularity. Every factory visited was discovered full of Clark men. Clark’s rugged his tory, his rise from the common people, his hard life, the fact that he had been one of them, seemed to take hold of these people, and Murphy discovered in New York what the presidential pri maries have told him and what he has confessed in Baltimore—that the peo ple—the plain people everywhere—are enamored of the great Commoner of M issouri. Murphj' and Tammany have a state election next year and they wish to win in November to make sure of it. Murphy and Tammany have found in Champ Clark a winner in November. Clear Majority On First Ballott. Therefore, Murphy and Tammany have run up the Clark flag- above the wigwam—and word has been passed along the line by Cohalan and Cram and the rest, anil New York's 90 votes added to Champ Clark's 460 votes, will give the speaker 550 votes on the first ballot—a clear majority of the whole convention. To add to this magnificent reinforce ment of members comes Roger Sullivan from Illinois, saying that Illinois’ mag nificent majority of 146.000 for Champ Clark would not permit him, if he wished, to be less than absolutely loyal to Champ Clark to the end. and sitting at rest the rumor that the Sullivan men. would bolt Clark on the first op portunity. Indiana's Second Choice. It is said here upon high authority that Tom Taggart has declared that Indiana holds Clark next to Governor Marshall, who has not developed strength, and that after a ballot for Indiana's favorite son, Indiana will go solidly for ('lark. These three things have practically settled the presidential nomination. The dark men are jubilant on every avenue, and recruits are climbing on to the Missouri band wagon in every direction. Baltimore is a ('hamp Clark town, although it has been conspicuously fair in every particular to all tile candi dates. and the courtesy and hospitality of the people of Baltimore to thg con vention guests have been almost with out a parallel. Praises For Mayor Preston. Baltimore has really won the heart of the national Democracy at this con vention. and those who remember the week will always hear with grateful consideration any future bid which Baltimore may make for a national Democratic convention. Mayor Pres ton, the city's chivalric and hospitable executive, has won golden opinions by bis untiring and effective considers lion, and there are scores of delegates who are holding him in their hearts most thoughtfull.'’ and gratefully for the vice presidential honor which they have to bestow. SOLONS IN PACT ON TIPPINS BILL As Legislature Opens Friends and Foes of Act Agree Not to Filibuster. Continued From Page Ona. ter up those two-thirds is problemati cal. The bill prohibits the manufac ture or sale of any beverage which contains more than one-half of one per cent of alcohol. While it is not likely that an ad journment will be taken until the close of the Baltimore convention, as ru mored. it is certain that but little ac tual work will be done until members now at the convention return to the capitol. J. Randolph Anderson, of Chatham, is one of the delegates at large and champion of the opponents to the Tippins bill. Though Represen tative Hardeman, of Jefferson, is spokesman for the opponents during Mr. Anderson's absence, it has been agreed that this bill will not be taken up until the Savannah orator’s return. Hooper Alexander heads the advocates of the bill, and he loves an argument too well to try to put anything over on Anderson during his absence on his party’s duty. A brand new set of doorkeepers and pages is to be chosen by Speaker Hol der and President Slaton. There has been considerable wire-pulling for the places. Three New House Members Sworn In. Three new house members were sworn in today to take the places of absentees. C. M. Clark, of Dougherty, has been elected to the place held by E. R. Jones, resigned. John T. Du- Pree. of Wilkinson, has been elected to succeed J. L. Byington, deceased. H. Drew Roberts, of Miller, has been elected to succeed Representative Har rell. who died since last session. President John M. Slaton and Speak er John H. Holder are at their desks and working hard, in spite of their races for office. Joe Hill Hall, the doughty statesman from Bibb and can didate for governor, would not miss a* day in the house if it would cinch his election. Mr. Slaton believes his duty requires him to preside over the senate, and Speaker Holder says the members elected him speaker of the house and he proposes to carry out his work, re gardless of his race for congress. D. F. McClatchey, reading cierk of the house, whose voice is famous from Rabun to Tybee, was back on the job’ today, though he has been seriously ill in St. Josephs hospital for several months. It had been feared that he would be too ill to attend a session, and veteran members were worried lest some green clerk be chosen who might forget himself and tead the real text of the voluminous bills in spite of the waste of time involved. Mr. McClatchey can read a 600-page document in nine minutes, and if he skips any of it no body can tell where the skipping be gins which is some help in a crowded session.
