1t was thought today that Mr.. Bryan
would be a member of the committee
on credentials, and thus be able to help
his friends in Illinois from the inside Of
the committee, but he said this after
noon that he would not be a member
of the credentials committee, as it was
necessary for him to be on the commit
tee on resolutions. n he could not.
very we'll be on both committees, as
they would in all probability be meet
ing at the same time.
Say Committee Has No Power
The Hopkins people contend that the
national committee will not be able to
take cognizance of the contests in Hi
nois for the reason that there was no
bolt from the state convention by
either the Hearst or Harrison people,
and that the national committee can
not take up a contest unless it is a
state matter. Differences arising from
district caucuses, they claim are not
within the province of the national
committee.
In addition to the contests in Illinois
there will be a fight for alFof the seats
of the delegates from the District of
Columbia. The Hearst management
claims, in this connections, tina arbi-
trary rulings by the chairman gave the
seats unjustly to delegates who are
friendly to German.
Practically the same ground of arbi-
trary ruling is made the issue in the
Tenth district of Indiana. Other con-
tests hat will come before the commit
tee, tomorrow morning are from the
Second Maryland district, Twelfth Ohio,
the First, Second, Third, Fourth, Fifth
and Sixth districts of Pennsylvania,
the Second, Sixth mo Seventh of New
Jersey. 1t was said tonight by several
members of the national committee
that the hearing of the evidence in
these contests would not consume a
great deaI of time, and that the main
fight would be made before the COM
mittee on credentialse in the majority
of cases. The, Hopkins faction of the
Illinois Democracy especially, is posi-.
tive in it's assertions that the national
committee will seat their men. They
claim that the greater part of it is fa-
vorable to their contention that con-
tests arising in district are not
proper matter for the national commit
tee to adjudicate.

Two STEPS
The Last One Helps the First

~ las OfC
A sick coffee drinker must take two
steps to she rid of his troubles and get
strong and well again..
The first is to cut off coffee abso-
lutely. 50
That emoves the destroying ele-
ment. The next step is to take liquid
food (and that is Postum Food Coffee
that has in it the elements nature re-
quires to change the blood corpuscies
from pale pink or white to rich red, AMI
good red blood builds good strong and
healthy cells in place of the broken
down cells destroyed by coffee. With
wen boiled Postum Food Coffee to shift
to, both ~theseSteps are easy and pleas
ant. The experience of a Georgian
proves how important both are.
From 1872 to the year 1900 my wife
and Ihad both been afflicted with sick
or headache and at times We
suffered untold agony. We We're coffee
drinkers. and did not know how to get
away from it for the habit is hard to
quit.
But in 1900 Tread Of a case similar
to ours where Postum Coffee was used
in place of the old coffee, and a COM
piote cure resulted, so l concluded to
get some and try it, s..
THE result was, after three days
use of Postum in placesof the coffee l
never had a symptom of the old trouble
and in five months I had gained from
lis pounds to 163 pounGs.-
My friends asked me almost daily
what wrought the change. Ny answer
always is, leaving off coffee and drink

GENERAL
FAVORS D PARKER
Politicians Think New Yorker Will Be
Named on Third Ballot

ST. LOUIS, July st looks like
Parker. Nine out of every ten men
who have been closely watching the
situation think that Parker will be
nominated by the second or not later
than the third ballot. At the same
time, there is enough uncertainty to
make the situation interesting. The
balloting is five days away and a great
deal may happen in 120 hours. If not
Parker, then German or-remotely-
Cleveland.
This has been a German day.
All the elements that could be used to
aid the Maryland senator have been
put forth today. His friends have been
in evidence and the strongest argu-
mentS brought to bear to show hat he
ought to be named. The congressional
influence has been a factor, and sena-
tors and representatives and congress
sional employees, talking and working
for German, have given evidence of the
popularity of the, Maryland senator
among those who know him.
Senator German is not coming to the
convention and will not enter into a
scramble for nomination.; nor will he be
a party to a movement to defeat the
nomination of Parker for the benefit
of some other man-McClellan or
Cleveland, for instance.
The Cleveland talk has been on the
wane, but there is quite a contingent
that is watching the situation with the
hope that a condition may arise which
will make Cleveland's nomination adj
viSable, out this could not be brought
about, except after an exciting and bit
ter struggle.

MINNEAPOLIS
BURGLARS OVERLOOK
$500 ON A TABLE
They Blow Open a Safe In a
Laundry Only to Find
S1.O5

An oversight on the part of Mr.. Fall
coner, proprietor of the laundry at 500
Second avenue south. saved him $500
yesterday morning. Thieves broke into
the store and blew open the safe only to
find $1.05, the proprietor having left $500
he intended to put under lock and key,
on a table in the laundry room.
The robbers entered through a window
in the rear of the building. On going
into the Office and returning, after blow
ing the safe to pieces, the men passed
the table on which lay the roll of none
without observing it. Failing to find the
amount expected the robbers tore the
name slips into shreds and played as
much havoc with the contents of the
safe as was possible.
An employe of a nearby livery stable
heard the noise of the explosion at 3
o'clock yesterday morning, but as the
Fourth of July celebration was already
on. he paid 10 heed, thinking the noise
came from the explosion of a cannon
cracker.

very extreme in favor Of tariff revision, very radical in favor
Of the destruction Of all trusts and declares for an income tax
obtained by a constitutional amendment.
Mr.. Bryan'sE attacks on Parker Will be even more sensa-5
tonal than those that are being made by Tarnlnany hall. His
fight for a radical platform will, however, be the great contest
on the floor of the convention, and he will measure swords
with D. b. Hill once more. AH@a
PLATFORM TO CALL FOR REVISION
The platform. which the conservatives will probably
eventually adopt is for moderate tariff revision, without in
juring any established Industries or bringing abouta shock to
the financial world. This plank might be described as pussy
footed"
Equally gentle in its treatment Of a great subject will be
the financial plank Instead Of repudating 16 to 1 and declar-
ing for the gold standard, the plank will assert that the pro-
duction Of gold as an act Of God has settled the financial ques-s
ton, which has really been "quantitive" problem.
The scheme Of the friends Of Olney German and Gray to
form a coalition with delegates controlled by Hearst and
Bryan has proved to be one Of the oldest speetaeles Witnessed
in years in American politics, and it has its good side.

Chicago Citizens Said to Be Headed
 I'm That Direction.
 One person in every 150 in Chicago is insane, according to dispatch from that city to the New York World. One person in every five is predisposed to insanity This is asserted in the re- port of Dr. V. H. Podstata, superin- tendent of the Dunning Insane asylI'n.
 Many more prominent authort S, men who have studied the subject ci- entifically for years, state that insanity has increased there rapidly in the last ten years. It has increased all over the world, but more rapidly in Chica- go than elsewhere. The percentage of insanity to 100000 inhabitants has quadrupled in fifty years.
 At the present rate of the develop ment of insanity, according to the worlds statistics" says Dr. James F. Lynch, land with present conditions of work and living unaltered, half of the civilized world will be more or less insane 500 years from now, and in an other 200 years from that time, under the same conditions, most of the Cau- casian race will be mentally deranged and civilization wiped off the face of the earth by the multitudes of Goths and vandals of Asia"

SALE OF BABIES.

Philadelphia Coroner HmYm Wh@x9 Nm No Way to sssp It. While the buying and selling oesinz fants carried on at 2986 West Danpkan street, says the Philadelphia Frees. in only one instance of the shameless traffic in humanity in this ctty. there Is at present no law by which those an-
 gagged in the business can be pxose. cuted.
 Coroner Dugan said recently when particularly fragrant case was brought before him:
 There is really no law against 9hs buying and selling of infants. Tha only way we can get at tho casa la under the law of cruelty. When we can prove that the children are in- humanly treated then we are able to
 convict the keepers of the houses, but
 dren are better off when adopted than
 in the hands of their own parents
 'sBut it is degrading to allow infants to bs bartered and sold like anzxnaln. The act in itself ought to be illegal We thrashed this subject pretty thor oughly in our crusade against baby farms last spring, and the result as thaE out of twenty which one of our men visited recently eighteen have been closed"
 Coroner Dugan also said that he knew of instances where babies had been loaned overnight for $5 and re- turned the next morning. h one case
 a woman bought achild for $15, kept it overnight, and upon returning 1t thA
 next day received $12 back"
