IN BRYAN's STATE.
National Democrats Prepared to
Make a, Vigorous Fight.

OMAHA, Neb., Sept 30-Tomorrow evening
the National Democrats OF Nebraska will hold
their state convention in Omaha It is the
general concensus of opinion among the
local leaders that this convention will not
only nominate an electoral ticket but will
also name a full state ticket and make q
vigorous fight throughout the state for what
they declare to be the true principles Of the
genuine Democracy. There Is some difference
of opinion as to the advisability of this
course. but the majority are said to be in
favor OF a straight fight There are some
Democrats who urge that the issue at stake
liz too important to be experimented with
and that the only safe course will be to
vote for the Mckinley electors direct. Others
contend that II they nominate a ticket Of their
own they will be able to draw much more
effectively from Bryan's support. They argue
that there are thousands of Democrats in
Nebraska to whom the principles of the Chi
cago platform are nauseatfng, but they are
too intense in their partfsanshfp to be able TO
vote the Republican ticket. Consequently
they believe gold standard Democratic ticket

Hutchinson was in the box for the
Millers yesterday. Chauncy Fisher
was on the rubber for the Indians
Hutch shut out his rivals, and Chauncy
suffered the same kind of defeat as
he did the last time he pitched in the
Flour City. He was unfortunate
enough to split his thumb in the sew
enth inning, and had to retire in favor
of Davis, the squirrel hunter. Had
Chauncy remained in the game, the
score would probably have been lower,
for Davis was about the widest that
has happened here in some time.

as much on fine stop as was Wilmot
on a catch of a ball that he had to
run back fully fifty feet to capture.
Stewart and Pickett made sensational
stops that brought forth the glad
hand of the rooters. The game was
lost by Indianapolis more by reason Of
their inability to connect with Hutch's
deceptive delivery than anything else.
Connors made the first run in the
third on a hard drive over the right
