MR.. SIMPSON REBUFFED
SETBACK FOR KANSAS JERRY AND
HIS SENATORIAL AMBITION.
POpulists Refused to IndOrse His Can
didacy-Bryan's Name Not Mem
toned by Texas POpulfsts.

FORT SCOTT. Kan, July A-The fea-
ture of the proceedings in the Pop
ulist, Democratic and Silver Republican
state conventions which met here to-day
in separate halls to nominate state ticket
or effect fusion in the interests of single
ticket was the turning down of the sena-
torial aspirations of Jerry Simpson by the
Populist convention. The ex-representative
desired to go before the next Legislature
in the event of Populist or fusion success
at the polls with the definite Endorsement
of the state convention for the Office of
United States senator His first fight came
before the committee on rules and order of
business. and he was successful, for the
committee reported a rule bringing the
question of a senatorial Endorsement be-
fore the convention. In the convention
there was strong opposition to this de-
parture from usual custom, and in the
heat of debate Mr.. Simpson took the floor
and urged his own candidacy. He was
bitter in his denunciation of some of his
opponents. making charges of bossism, and
the convention was soon in an uproar The
ex-representative retired from the plat
form amid groans and Kisses. When a
vote was taken an Endorsement of his cam
didacy was refused by majority of nearly
two-thirds.
Neither of the conventions achieved much
at to-day's sessions. and at a late hour to-
night there has been no definite agreement
to fusion. The Populists are not oppos-
ing the proposition to name Bryan and
Stevenson electors, and this will be done
Il an agreement can be reached for a d.
vision of the state officers. The agreement
reached at Topeka several months ago by
the state committees OF the three parties,
providing for a division of the Offices may
be broken, as the Populists are trying TO
force the nomination of ex-Justice David
Martin. formerly a Republican. for the
office of assistant justice. a position which
the Topeka agreement gave to the Demo-
Gratis.
AT a late hour tonight the three con-
ference committees reached an agreement
whereby the Topeka agreement will be
modified to the extent of permitting the
Populists TO name David Martin. of Atchi-
son, for associate justice, for which they
will surrender to the Democrats the office
of attorney general. The agreement thus
modified will be reported to the convention
Tomorrow 1t gives the Populists the Of
fees of associate justice. Governor. lieu
tenant governor. auditor, superintendent of
public instruction and congressman at
large. while the Democrats will name the
candidates for secretary of state and at
torney general. The silver Republicans
will be given the nomination for superin-
tendent of insurance. The agreement pro-
vides also that the Populists and Demo-
presidential electors and the silver Repub-
licans two candidates. This agreement WILL
probably be Endorsed by the conventions.

sent to him he would be in Jail one half the
