Bryan-Hitchcock Breach Widened in Convention Row Refusal of Former Nebraska, Senator to Support Gov ernor on First Ballot Significant. New York. June 2"8.—Seeds of dls r >r 1 between Bryan and Hitchcock 11a In Nebraska are being sown nrnong members of the Nebraska del egation at the national convention. Former Senator Gilbert 11. Hitch cock, avowed Vp-Adoo supporter and delegate-at-large, has issued a state ment that, despite state pride, har ,, mony and other influences he will not cast his first ballot for Gov. Charles W. Bryan for president. The fact that 9,000 votes were cast for McAdoo in the Nebraska pri maries and only 1,800 for Bryan is cited by Hitchcock as a mandate from Nebraaka democracy to vote for Mc Adoo. Apparently the former Nebraska senator Is the only member of the delegation to place such an Interpre tation on the primary vote. The re mainder of the delegation will vote for Bryan on the first ballot, according to forecasts of a majority of delegates. , A few express the opinion there may be two or three Nebraska ballot* cast for Governor A1 Smith. Fought Nomination Speech. The Hitchcock bolt from the Bryan for-prealdent program has been ru mored for several days. It was re ported that an effort was being made to force abandonment of the Bryan nomination speech and for a time it was believed that Hitchcock, working at behest of McAdoo managers anxi ous to make a big showing on the first ballot, had been able to club the Bryan boom Into oblivion. “Brother Charlie," however, was determined to receive honorable mention at the con vention and through Influence of state patronage, state pride and other presi dential candidates desiring to make the McAdoo vote on the first ballot as small as possible he was able to put Eugene O'Sullivan on the platform to nominate him for president. Reads Fleharty Notes. “Brother Charlie" was not able to put the nomination over exactly as he had planned. Harry B. Fleharty had been chosen to deliver the ffowers and tributes and'had written the speech. O’Sullivan delivered It, reading word for word from the Fleharty master piece. Saturday, “Brother Charlie" dis Ir.buted a series of telegrams received from Nebraska for the purpose of proving that his candidacy for presi dent was extremely popular with the folks at home. The telegram* were from Warden W. T. Fenton, State Agriculture Secretary Grant Shum way and State Agent Farris, gentle men fastened on the state's payroll who intend to remain there If tele grams containing kind words for the governor have anything to do with It.
