good you can possibly derive from them.

BRYAN AND
TOWflE SLATE
The Latter flamed at Confer
ence in Both Lincoln
and Chicago.
A special from Chicago, under date
of June 16 says: A conference of Demo- ;
cratic politicians in this city to-day, fol
lowing several conferences held at the
home of W. J. Bryan, in Lincoln, Neb.,
last week, resulting in the announcement
that Charles A. Towne, of New York, is
to be Bryan's running-mate on the Dem
ocratic ticket.
Farly last week Colonel Henry Wat
terson.the veteran Democratic editor of
the Louisville Courier-Journal, went to
Lincoln for a conference with Bryan.
On his way out he stopped at Chicago
for a day to study the Republican situa
tion. Before he left Lincoln he said in
an interview that Bryan would be
nominated at Denver on the first ballot.
Mr. Towne was a day behind Colonel
Watterson. He, too, stopped over a day
in this city to study the Republican situ
ation. The two met in Lincoln. Mr.
Towne arrived here last night on his
way to New York and immediately sent
for some of his friends, who are prom
inent in Democratic politics in Illinois.
After the conference, one of his friends
said:
"Former Senator Towne, of Minneso
ta, now of New York, will be named
for Vice President on the Democratic
national ticket with Mr. Bryan. Formal
announcement of his candidacy will be
made within three or four days, either
from New York or Lincoln."
The New York delegates to the Demo
cratic National Convention are unin
structed. They will be controled by State
Chairman Conners and Tammany Lead
er Murphy. For some time there has
been a general impression among Demo
crats throughout the country that the
votes of the New York delegation would
be thrown to Bryan in the Denver con
vention if Conners and Murphy could
name the imin for second place. The
seventy-eight votes of New York would
give Bryan more than the necessary
two-thirds to nominate. Mr. Towne
left for New York early this morning.
Judge Jessen Fractures Collar Bone
Judge Paul Jessen was catching ball
for the Court House team intheirgame
against the Clerks, last evening, on the
Fourteenth street grounds and District
Clerk E. H. Finigan was pitching. Mr.
Finigan throws a very swift ball and
one of the balls he pitched was slightly
tipped by the batter and it was turned
from its course and struck Judge Jessen
just on top of the colar bone, on the
left side, and boke the bone. The
Judge was game and despite the intense
pain wanted to continue the game, but
was persuaded to go home, where Drs.
Marnell and Wilson reduced the fracture
and made him as comfortable as possible.
It will be some time before he will be
able to play ball and he will be com
pelled to be very careful for some time
with that arm until the break mends.
