OMAHA, Neb., March 20.-After an
animated conference which lasted all
day, an agreement has been reached
between the Manderson and Mckinley
forces of Nebraska by which the sup
porters of Gen. Henderson agree to
withdraw all opposition to the selection
Of Mckinley delegation TO the Re
publican national convention. In re-
turn for this concession, the Mckinley
people bind themselves to present the
name of Gen. Manderson to the conVelI-
ton unless in their judgment It is ap-
parent that Mckinley win pe nominat-
ed. The conference took place at II
o'clock this morning. 1t was attended
by representatives OF both sides. The
Mckinley side issued this proclamation:
1t is understood between the persons repre-
senting Hon. Charles F. Henderson and the
committee acting as friends and supporters of
Hon. William Mckinley and in the behalf of
the Mckinley club, that the delegation from
Nebraska to the national convention shall be
composed of sixteen original Mckinley men,
and that the Henderson headquarters will be
closed.
The following resolution will be
adopted by the state convention:
Resolved, That the name of Hon. Charles F.
Henderson be formally presented to the con-
NentloH ds Il canuluale, unless, IN tne JuQS-
ment of the Nebraska delegation at the as
sembling of the convention, it is apparent that
Mckinley will be nominated for president.
AS a result Of the agreement, the
Henderson men are to make no fur
ther contention. The delegation to ST.
Louis is to be composed of avowed
Mckinley men. The Henderson head
quarters have been closed. Mander-
sons many friends in Nebraska are not
disposed to believe that Mckinley will
be the choice of the convention.
