The dismissal of the mandamus asked for

that only in the Seventh Ward will there

TWO CONVENTIONS PROBABLE.
ContcstinG Delegations VIII Go
From Centrnlia, Ill.

SBEtlAlI
Centralia, ILL.,. March IA most deter
mined and relentless fight is on here be-
tween the Yates and anti-Yates factions
for the control of the Marion County Re-
publican Convention. which meets in Sa-
lem March o. Some time ago n call was
made for a primary convention for this
afternoon to select delegates from Cen
tralia Township to the County Convention,
and John Dunlop. Mine Inspector. an ap-
pointec of Governor Yates. was appointed
one of the judges. He declined to serve
and desired to name a man in his place.
The committee not acceding to this re-
quest, the Yates forces stole a march on
the other faction and held secret conven-
tions last night. selecting delegates to the
County Convention. and the anti-Yates. or
Lowden, forces held the primary this aft
ernoon. There will be two delegations
from here to both the county conventions.
The anti-Yates forces claim. with their
Centralia delegates. a large working ma
jority in the County Convention.
committee in calling. a primary was lille
gal. and they therefore refuse to recog-
nize the primary held to-day. The Yates
faction also claims it will be able to or
ganize the County Convention.
Contesting delegations from Marion
County to the State Convention probably
will result from the fight here. There will
be eighty delegates in the County Con-
vention, forty-seven of which number are
furnished by Centralia Township.

FILLEY EXTENDS
THE GLAD HAND.
Sends Greetings and Good
Wishes to Republican City :.
Central Committee. -

'Hurrab for the old man." came float
ing down the corridors of the Holland An
mex last night while the Republican City
Committee was in session. HandcIaps fol-
lowed intermittently.
He's the real thing" and then there
was shuffling of feet. Hes all right" ex.
claimed one enthusiastic member
And so on, for more than an hour whlsl
the answer of Chauncey l. Filley to the
proposition made to him by the committee
TO be their chief adviser in the coming
campaign was read. The meeting wasl
called for this purpose and to receive the
transportation for the delegates to the
Kansas City convention.
"A few days ago the Republican City
Committee passed a resolution fnyitins,
f1lley to take charge of things. A sub
committee visited him at his home. They
listened to the undetiled political gospel
of man who had led the party to VIC
tory time and again.
Apparently the old leader intends to
keep the boys in line with him. In his
eight-page letter to the City COMMITTEES
last night he outlined his ideas of what
skin his numerous enemies. He saiH
that he did not care to occupy any officis4
position in the party other than that d
an adviser, but that he did wish TO helb
keep down the factionalsm.
Committeeman Witthoeft of the Second
Ward telephoned to the Good Government
CluD, tllleyS own organization, the 1act
that the letter had been spread upon the
minutes of the meeting, and that the ad-
vice contained therein had struck root In
falloH ground. At the other end of the
wire there was much rejoicing
Louis Alt. John B. Owen and two or
three other anti-Filley committeeman did
lot attend last nights meeting, and there
in is the fly in the ointment. There is
about as much chance of some of the old
Ziegenhein crowd taking the advice of
Filley as there is of a leopard changing it's
spots. Likewise with some of the REFORM
ers who helped organize the present city
committees.

TO ARREST FOLK CHAIRMAN
OF COUNTY CONVENTION.
Fat King of Hawes Forces Charges
ID. G. Taylor With Attempting to
Draw Revolver in Clayton.

A warrant for the arrest of D. C. Tay-
lor. chairman of the Folk Democratic
Convention in st. Louis County, was is
sued yesterday by Justice Frank L. Stobie
of Wellston on an affidavit made by Pat
King. sergeant-at-srms of the Halves con-
vention.
King and Taylor had trouble in the Pro-
bate Courtroom in Clayton on March l.
the day the Hawes Democratic Convention
was held. when the former attempted to
eject the latter from the room in obedience
to an order from the chairman of the con-
yention to compel him (Taylor) to desist
from talking - =
In the melee. King threw Taylor against
the glass door of a bookcase and then at
tempted TO put him out of the ROOM Tay-
lor attempted to draw a revolver but was
dissuaded from doing so by Henri Cho-
meau. Instead. 1t is charged, he went be-
fore Justice Greensfelder and svsore out a
wari ant against his alleged assailant
charging common assault. His trial was
set for yesterday, but when his case was
called he took a change OF venue to the
court of Justice r. F. Stevens IN Maple
wood.
King alleges that Taylor ATTEMPTED to
draw revolver on him while he was Civ
ing bond before Justice Greensfelder Inn
mediately after the issuance of the war
rant.
1t is supposed that the cases will drag
along in the courts for several months
as both men are determined to light TO
the last ditch.

FIGHT ON BRYAN IN
NEBRASKA GROWS WARM.
Editor Mctcnlfe withdrays From
Race for DeleGate-at-LnrEe to
Further Interests of Former
Leader.
REPrRIIC SPECIAL.

REPUBLIC
Omaha, Neb. March lin a signed edi-
torial. in the Omaha World Herald. of
which he is editor-in n-chief. Richard l..
Metcalfe, Bryan's chief supporter and
personal friend, to-day announced that he
will decline an election as delegate TO
the Democratic National Convention and
acknowledges that strong fight is being
made in Nebraska to turn down Bryan,
He Gays in part.
Several Democratic newspapers in Ne
braska have suggested that l be chosen
as one of the delegates-at-large to the
Dem ccIatic National Convention. The
Democratic Editorial Association adopted
a resolution to this effect. The Nebraska
editors will bear me out in the statement
that l never solicited the support either OIL
editors az individuals or oil the editorial
association L have repeatedly said that
] did not desire to go as delegate TO the
Natiora al Convention. and no act of mine
is responsible for the fact that / have
BEEN regarded, by some, as candidate for
this high position.
LAS has been pointed out in the editorial
columns of the orid-Herald there exists
to-day a dcep-seated conspiracy to huEnili-
ate Mr.. Bryan in his own State; TO defeat
in the State Convention the adoption of a
resolution instructing the delegates to sup
port Mr.. Bryan in his fight for the plat
form at st. Louis and to elect in some
instances, as delegates men upon whose
cordial cooperation Mr.. Bryan may rot
depend.
The men who are engaged in the effort
to have the Democrats of Nebraska re-
pudiate Mr.. Bryan seek by various means
to obscure the real issue, and IL is part
of their well-laid plans to make 1t appear
that their fight is not against Mr.. Bryan
but is directed against the proposition
that l be chosen as delegate to the ST.
Louis convention.
''In order that the Democrats of Ne
braska, and particularly those of Douglas
Count: shall not be embarrassed by my
so-calied candidacy: in order to prevent
those men who are. now well known to be
hostile to Mr. Bryan from obscuring the

Waters. attorney for Senator Jewell, ad-
dressed the jury. de said that II Hess
had told the truth Jewell was guilty OF
a miGdemeanor: but il Jewelrs evidence
was true Hess was guilty of a felony. The
case. he said. rested upon which the jury
would believe, Jewell or Hess.
Don't let this cIamor about Doodle in
fluence you to convict Senator Jewell"
ATTORNEY GENERAL ARGUES.
L. c. Grow, Attorney General of the
State, made the closing speech for the
State
He said: Il ask you TO consider this
case solely with reference to the law and
evidence in the case. l say to you I rep
resent this man Jewell as we'll as all other
members of the sovereign State Of Mis-
souri,. Try him as you would try any
other man accused of crime. Let no
prejudice enter into II.
"The facts disclosed here are that Mr..
Hess is a business man. the local agent
Of baking powder company interested in
legislation in jefferson City. His COM
pany sent word to him to use what influ-
ence he could to get repealed a law which
was detrimental 10 his company's busi-
ness. In compliance with these instruc-
tions he finds the men acquainted with
the Senator and seeks an introduction.
Those men are in business here. men of
unbIemished reputation.
THE theory of the defendant is that
Hess sudd emily conceived the idea that he
could hold up the Jacques Company for
5000. keep $3.50 of it, and give the rest
of 1t to Jewell. Is IT reasonable to sup
pose that such a division of the swag
would have been proposed by Hess? I'm
equal distribution OF the swag by thieves is
never tolerated. Hess would never have
proposed to get 5000 and give 1850 OF it
to Jewell. Thieves and bpodlers don't do
business that way. II Hess was a thief
he would have wanted half of the unlaw-
ful proceeds of his infamy.
II don't ask you to convict this man
upon the uncorroborated testimony of J.
W. Hess. These kilograms are the strong
and unquestionable proof of the truth OF
the story Hess tells. Witnesses say Hess
was drunk January 81, when the first
proposition of bribery was made. But
they don't say he was drunk next day,
when he sent this telegram. There is the
silent proof of the guilt OF this man
Jewell.
i've gone too far down the path of
lie to stand before a jury and ask the
conviction of man believe is innocent.
/ as firmly believe. Jesse l.. Jewell is
guilty, and made that proposition, as
believe that in the last day we will all
have to meet our Maker.
What's the conduct OF a man who has
committed a crime? Who exposed Jewell?
John w. Hess. He disclosed it voiuntar-
lily. Why should Hess come and tell this
story unless 1t were true? You know that
II Hess's guilty conscience was troubling
him he would have kept quiet But, in
stead. he comes and tells his story.
But Jewell never told it until after he
was placed under arrest and placed upon
trial. Then he must acquit himself. How?
He can't deny that he met this man Hess.
Too many witnesses saw It. Too many
witnesses heard the discussion between
them. There is only one avenue of escape.
He must turn and say: I'm innocent; the |
other man is guilty."
