MRS. CRAVEN STILL III.
The Hearing of the Case Postponed for
Another Week.

Mrs. Nettie r. Craven was still too ill to
attend court yesterday and the inquiry
which was set to be heard before Judge
Slack was postponed for a week. Attor-
neys for both sides were in court, but the
statement of the situation with regard to
Mrs. Craven met with no opposition.
The shooting that had taken place in
the court short time before the hour
for the hearing made the court a ready
listener to motion to postpone.

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

OMAHA, Neb., Sept. 30-Tomorrow eve ing
the National Democrats Of Nebraska wills
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 a
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 adyisability of this
course, but the majority are said to be in
favor OF straight fight. There are some
Democrats who urge that the issue at stake
is too important to be experimental with
and that the only safe course will be to
vote for the Mckinley electors direct. Others
contend that II they nominate 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 neuseating. but they are
too intense in their partisanship to be able to
vote the Republican ticket Consequently
they believe gold standard Democratic ticket
will receive a vast number of votes that
would otherwise be cast for Bryan.
AS the action of the convention has been
somewhat problematicaI, there are but few
open candidates for the various offices on the
state ticket John A. Ames Of Lincoln, and
r. 8. Bibb. of Beatrice. have been men
toned In connection with the gubernatoriai
nomination.
