nut eiiiiOi.aily in this manner:
"Mr. Sissou of Missis..-, ppi offetvi! x
resoliitiun in the c auc us insii u ..

toed with the preparation of oc.er
liils, incluciiiin one covering the it a

' When this was opposed Spea'.-jr
Clark offered us u compromise, a re .
lut ion milder in lingua, o, hut Imviug
the same gcn:-ial object.
"Mr. Underwood oppoJod Loi.li chtiw
resolutions.
"Mr. bryan's informant took an ac
tive part in the caucus and in giving
the information minimizes the differ
ence between Mr. Underwood and Mr.
Clark, but the lact remains thut Mr.
Clark offered the resolution, as Mr.
Bryan first stated, on the authority of
the Omaha World Herald.
"It is strange that Mr. Underwood,
in denouncing Mr. Bryan, was nt
candid no uh to admit that Mr. CU; k
introduced tho resolution.
"The Issue, then, is not one of fact,
as Mr. Lmleiwo d would have It dp
pear, but a difference as to toncbi
sions. Why did Mr. Underwood oppose
the preparation of an iron and steel
schedule at this season, or until after
the prcsid"nt acted? The fact that
he asked the committee to relieve him
of embarrassment by reporting a bill
n the beginning of the extra session
is evidence of good Intent at the be
ginning, but is not conclusive as to hU
reasons for favoring delay at Uie
close of the session.
Still of Same Mind.
"ThoM who have onfidence In Mr.
Underwood may accept his reasons at
their face value, but Mr. Bryan does
not. have confidence In him and does
not accept his reasons. Mr. Uryan
believes him tainted with protection
nnd regards his selection as chairman
of the committee as unfortunate. Th
comnrttee will have more work to do
next winter. Mr. llryan will he pleased
if .Mr. Underwood'! conduit next win
ter proves him a real opponent of the
principle of protection, but Mr. Bry
an docs not expect nioli proof to b
furnished."'
In this wise Mr. P.ryan declares
H at several Pib'tal e-i v. ere innde bv

t'n;; .i tariff on raw wool, another iu
iid.lourning without sihmltt'n? .an
amendment for direct election of sena
;ors. another In not p.:is-'!v.' rn :int'
trust bill, and another in p'TiniUmcr
a secret caucus to control leelslntion.
"reafest of all, he puts down the nnk
it:g of U)idrwind chairman of tlm
' ays and moans committee. "He Is
' t a thoroutih coinc t.-tiff reformer,
..nd the environment ia pgninst pro
"ressive Democracy. The party hn
a light to expect that a positive arl
degressive opponent of the whole pr"
t c tive poll -y should bo placed at the
committee's head. The mistrke b:n
already cost the party dearly," he
snys".
Not Ready to Name Choice.
Replying to the request of tho
f'icksonian club of Om l-f Mm
i lnd his aid in nominating Woort
nw Wilson. Mr. Bryan says;
"Mr. Rryan acknowledges with ap
preciation tho compliment paid. He
recon''es the mer' ind popularity of
Governor 'Pson. b-t Is not yet pre
ri'irrd to discuss the relative strength
of these who can hi cfassod among

sire in the matter, namely, that th
