from w. W. Manatt, of New York, and
is a splendid likeness of the "peerless

It. Is beautifully modeled and full of at
mosphere, Just like the living subject. 'The
bust was the subject of much admiration
by the friends of Mr. Bryan, who could
not be present totiear the comments pas
sed upon It, for Mr. IVyan was engaged
in the jnatlonal committee watching the
progress" of the contests inaugurated by
the Hearst forces to secure recognition In
the ' convention, and how the committee
punished the "antl" crowd would fill a
volume .'Of the Congressional Record. As
each new contest came before the national
. committee with recommendations of the
sub-committee having the same In charge
'Bryan wore a worried look and saw his
hopes of help from those contesting dele
gations go glimmering. -'
Although the finding of the national com
mittee were largely in the interest of the
anti-Hearst crowd, a sop, was handed the
young Calif om lan who has' made such a
game race for a great goal, by referring
several contests to the committee on cred
entials, yet there is no comfort in the
situation.
One cannot help but admire, however, the
way in which Bryan clings to the hope that
something will turn up to change the cur
rent that has set In so strongly to Parker,
and' tonight all the elements in the anti
Parker ranks will caucus with a view of
pledging themselyes,to stand by their fa
vorite sons, hoping .that In; this way Park
er's' strength may be Weakened. -

pected, however, that Nebraska votes will
be given to Cockrell, Hearst, Oray and, had
the Ohio delegation kept Harmon In the

Weaver of Iowa and Pettlgrew of South
Dakota were closeted together repeatedly
endeavoring to reach some middle ground
upon which the anti-Parker forces might
stand, but In vain. Hearst's ' managers
still insist that he controls' the situation,
and as both Weaver and Pettlgrew are un
derstood to be on the Hearst payroll, the
have been handlcaped In their attempts' to
bring out a candidate upon whom the op
position could unite.

BRYAN'S INFLUENCE RAPIDLY iWANING
Opposition Has Made t'nanccessfal Ef
forts to Tim the Tide, bat
Poaltloa of New Torker
Is I'nshakeB.
ST. LOUI8. July S.-W. J. Bryan, who
yesterday offered to support Pattlson , of
Pennsylvania was today giving encourage
ment to the friends of McClellan.
At the meeting of the Nebraska delega
tion today W. J. ' Bryan was appointed to
represent the state on the committee on
resolutions, and there was some discussion
on the position the state shall assume on
the platform. Mr. Bryan's contention will
be for the reaffirmation of the Kansas City
platform, but the delegation recognized the
Improbability of securing such a stand.
The discussion was therefore devoted large
ly to the consideration of what to do In that
event. No conclusion was reached, but the
tendency' is to accept the situation If fairly
liberal declarations can be secured. In .that
event Mr. Bryan will probably not maicea
platform fight on the convention floor. . He
has not formally declared his position, but
his fellow delegates thus Interpret it
Parker's Poaltloa t'nahakea.
ST. LOUIS, July 5. Parker's strong po
sition remains unshaken. The opposition
has made many assaults during the. -day,
but has apparently made ho impression.
The solid and substantial phalanx of the
New York Jurist has withstood all efforts
of the friends of the other candidates and
tonight is apparently stronger than ever.
Assurances of accessions from instructed
delegations after the first ballot have been
received from men who are now tied to
other candidates, which the Parker ad
herents say Insures a nomination by the
second ballot ,
The Parker opposition was disturbed,
but not routed by the action of Pennsyl
vania last night. The sixty-eight votes of
that state has been for weeks placed in
the Parker column and are a part of the
500 odd votes that have been claimed for
him. They were not Instructed, however,
and if they could have been secured for
any other candidate it would' have been a
serious blow to the Parker Interests.
Not only does it appear that the con
trol of the nomination for first place will
be In the hands of those democrats who
wefe In the minority in 1896 and again In
1900, but that they will select the nominee's
running mate and dominate the platform
on which the race will be made.
Bryan's Waning Influence.
In defiance of such handicaps aa were
created . by the ambitious friends of Gor
man, Cleveland, Gray, Olney, McClellan
and favorite sons who had a following
that divided the conservative columns, th,s
element which advanced the claims of
democratlo rehabilitation struggled against
the combined opposition of Bryan, repre
senting the ruling democratic force In the
last two presidential contests and the per
sonal campaign conducted by William Ran
dolph Hearst.
The changed position of those who are In
power now and those who controlled four
and eight years ago, Is attracting wide at
tention from delegates and spectators. Wil
liam J. Bryan Is -the most picturesque flg
gure. Twice the candidate of his party for
president, but running on a platform forced
upon the' nominating conventions by his

Ohio. The Ohio dele a tlon, though loyal to'
Harmon, looked upon the plan with some
suspicion' and this Idea fell upon barren
soil.
An Interesting feature In today's proceed
ings was the development of the waning
Influence of Mr. Bryan. The national com
mittee selected four years ago by a con
vention -following his unquestioned leader-
ship, today turned away from him In set
tling tbe Illinois contest
The Virginia delegation, which arrived
today, saw. by. an evening paper yesterday
that they were for Senator Gorman for
president. They all signed this declaration
written by Senator Daniel: .

When the delegation met later they form

Entire SoutbV for Parker.
At I p. m. It seems like a Parker pre
ponderance would not' cause any change In
the complimentary votes' ot the states in
structed for favorite sons on the first bal
lot. While the Parker column would prob
ably embrace the entire south and nearly
all the Instructed states the delegate from
Massachusetts, Wisconsin, Delaware, Cali
fornia and Missouri would formally present
and record their votes , for Olney, Wall,
Gray and Cockrell, respectively. New Jer
sey Is not counted upon to vote for Parker
on the first ballot, and while the decision of
that delegation will ndt be reached until
tomorrow the present Indications are that
it will Join with Delaware In support of
Judge Gray. The Massachusetts delrgatlon

out missionaries In behalf of Olney, hut be

hold steadfastly to Wall Wisconsin. Is

Tammany la. Not Permitted to Reoom
mend Idea to Convention.
ST. LOUIS, Jul.The meeting of the
New York state, plejsatlon waa tnarked by
a degree of harmony,, such as has not pre
vailed :ln thV deYegifiolif for several presi
dential convention'" It was rumored prlurj
to the meeting ;that Tammany naa pracu
cally decided to retire gracefully from its
heretofore emphaflo "opposition to Judge
Parker, arid' thill was partially confirmed
by- what took place at the delegation
meeting. In the first place there was no
objection to the selection of David B,
Hill a. a member of the committee on res-
olutlons and this, harmqnious action was
repeated when State Senator Thomas, F.
Grady, of Tammany hall, was selected as
the member of the committee on rules and
order of business. Fo'rmer United States
Senator Edward Murphy, Jr., of Troy,
was' made chairman of the delegation and
Norman E. Mack, df Buffalo, was re
elected as national committeeman, James
W. Ridgeway, of Brooklyn-a McCarren
adherent was " unanimously ' selected to
represent the state on the committee on
credentials. " ' .
The only spice injected into the meeting
waa the offering of a resolution by Bourke
Cockran providing ' "that In the opinion
of this delegation a statement should be
Included in the platform that the decision
of the people on the money Issue as twice
exemplified in two elections should be the
final statement of the financial question
and of vital importance in the next gen
eral election." Mr. Cockran, In speaking of
his resolution and. urging its adoption,
said that the financial question aa pre
sented In the two last national platforms
had been discarded by the people and that
this decision should be the basis of the
financial plank In the new platform.
George Raines, of Rochester, opposed Mr.
Cockran's motion. He urged that there was
no reason for an extremely- radical course
on the plank, and believed (that the matter
could be safely left In the hands of Sena
tor Hill. He moved that it be referred
to Senator Hill with power. This ' was
adopted by a , vote . of 60 to U,
Senator Grady offered a proposition that
should a resolution be Introduced Into the
convention proposing an abrogation of the
two-thirds rule and the adoption of a ma
jority rule, Kew. Tork should oppose. Sen
ator Hill remarked that he thought that
matter could be Intelligently acted upon
by Senator Grady In the committee on rules
and It was unanimously referred to him.
The meeting then - adjourned subject to
the call of the chair.
After adjournment, delegate Bird Coler
sald:i
It is perfectly evident that Senator Hill
and his following do not InU-nd to take a
definite stand on ths money question. They
are going to take a half-way courwe so as
not to thoroughly displeaso Mr. Bryan and
his small following.
Leader Charles F. Murphy, of Tammany
hall, was asked If there was any truth In
the statement that Tammany had decided
to withdraw Its opposition to Judge Parker.
He said:
"We have not announced any such de
cision, but those who have candidates other
than Judge Parker In the convention seem
to be afraid to take the Initiative in forcing
their candidates to the front, and I don't
know why we should bother, to assist them.
Some people1 are sadly lacking in back
bone." 1 '.'..'
Lewis Nixon, Charles Towne and several
other Tammany men close to the chief
nodded In aoqulescence when asked If Tam
many had ceased to actively fight Judge
Parker.
The Tammany people are so confident
that things are going to run smoothly that
they have practically decided to order their
special train to leave Friday afternoon,
anticipating that the convention will be
over at that time.

dent HOPKINS WINS IN THB CONTEST
National Committee, Despite Mr,
Bryan, Will Not Oo Behind Returns.
ST. LOUIS, July B. The subcommittee
which .last night heard the evidence in the
fourteen contests In the state of Illinois
today reported to the national committee
that it was the unanimous opinion of the
members of the subcommittee that the
Hopkins .delegates 'be allowed, to retain
their seats. The report was concurred in
and. the Hopkins people will hold their
seats unless ousted by the action of the
committee on credentials. The decision 'of
the subcommittee was based on the ground
that the state convention was supreme and
that it la not the business of the national
committee to go behind-the record of the
Convention aa submitted to them. This
shows that the Hopkins people are the reg
ularly accredited delegates and because of
this fact the subcommittee gave Its verdict
for them and did not consider that It had
any right to go behind theVetums and take
up the evidence submitted. The fight should
in the opinion of the committee been made
In state aonventlon.
This attitude of the national committee
sustains the Hopkins people, who Insisted
yesterday that every contest In the national
committee did not have the right to decide
contests in district caucuses.
The Harrison and Hearst men were
greatly disheartened by their defeat, and
announced their Intention of carrying the
fight before the ootnmittee on credentials,
and If beaten there, before the convention
Itself. This statement did not alarm the
Hopkins people, who said that the argu
ment that won for them before the national
committee would hold good before the con
vention also.
"It is all over," said John P. Hopkins.
"We won as I knew we would. There was,
In fact, nothing else for the committee to
do. What steps may be taken later will
have no effect. Our delegates will remain
Just where the state convention seated
them.
The victory of the Hopkins faction was
also a defeat for W. J. Bryan, who has
mad the fight almost a personal mattter.
He yesterday attended the hearing in the
greater part of the contests and showed
his anxiety In every way to win the seats,
for the Harrison and Hearst people.
"The action, of the committee la far
reaching,." he said, "'and means that the
work of a few men is to stand before the
wishes the majority of the delegates.
I have hopes that the credentials commit
tee will see the matter In a different light."
The contest in the other states were re
ported by the various subcommittees as
heretofore stated to the National Commit
tee, Vch then adjourned.
Thetlght .in the Illinois delegation in
volved thirteen districts and two of the
delegates-at-large, and waa one of the
fiercest ever seen before any convention.
The hearing yesterday and last night be
fore the subcommittee of the national com
mittee was only preliminary exercise for
both sldea The bitter work will come
later before the committee on credentials,
and it is almost certain at this time that
if there is any rhance to get the contest
to the floor of the convention It will go
there and be waged with energy.
Several times lasK night the retorts be
tween the contesting factions were of so
heated a nature that Chairman Stone of
the subcommittee was compelled to re
peatedly call for order, and once sug
gested that the gentlemen from Illinois
would find the outslds of the hotel a proper
place to conduct their arguments if their
minds were "made up for a bull light."
In New Jersey the contests were aban
doned la the FUth, Sixth and Eighth dis
trict and the fight maintained In the First
and. Second districts. The committee de
elded to report In favor of the regular
delegates In both cases, chiefly because
the contestants were not able to produce
convincing evidence in ' support of their
claim that between sixty and seventy of
their delegates were thrown out of the
state convention. ' ".
DECLARE
WAR
ON
PARKRR.
Altered Mora Than One-Third ef Del
eaates Pledged Against Judge.
ST. LOUIS, July 5. A number of repre
sentatives of the opposition to Judge Par
ker met for a conference at Hearst's head
quarters, and after adjournment gave out
the following statement:
"After a consultation among the mana
gers representing the various candidates
and delegates opposed to the nomination
of Judge Parker, it was formally agreed
among them that the nomination of Judge
Parker IS Impossible. The opposition rep
resents easily much mere than one-third
of the votes In the convention necessary
to prevent a nomination, all of whom agree
not to support Judge Parker's candidacy
unaer any ciroumstanoes.
The discussion in the conference and else
where developed a determined disposition
to make a test of strength on the first
ballot at least before surrendering. They
claim, that In spite of the deflection of
Pennsylvania they will be able to control
one hundred votes more than the one-third
necessary to prevent Parker's nomination
but many of them concede the Imposslbll
lty of maintaining their full strength
through many successive ballots unless
early inroads can be made upon the Parker
stronghold.
This danger is made evident by the con
ditions in the anti-Parker delegations. It
Is stated, for Instance, that fully pne-half
the Kansas and Colorado votes will go
to Parker on the first ballot, and Maryland
and West Virginia, which constitute the
seat of Mr. Gorman's strength,- are ready
to 'go over to the New Tork candidate1
as soon as they can be reloased from their
pledge to Senator Gorman.'
. The West Virginia delegation Is quite
at sea because Mr. Gorman has not yet
indicated his. attitude.
Senator Davia is holding them In line
for the Maryland man if they are needed,
but once released "all but two of the dele
gates will go for Parker.
The claim is made today that Alabama
will lead oft In the vote against Parker,
and the hope Is expressed that the example
will prove strongly encouraging to other
delegations 'whose inclinations are unfriend
ly to the New Tork man.

is in good staie or cultivation.
Winter wheat harvest has made alow
progress in Missouri and Kansas and dam
