BRYAN TO RULE AGAIN.
Parker's Defeat Likely to Restore Ne
hraskan 10 [ eadarshir,


braskan to Leadership.
Chicago, Nov. 9.-The crushing de-
feat administered to Judge Parker yes
terday unquestionably means the NOM
inal as well as the actual restoration
OF William ]. Bryan of Nebraska, to
party leadership. The work of reor-
ganization probably will begin at once
and there is little doubt that Bryan
himself will point the way by issuing
q proclamation thru his Commoner
which will be accepted by his followers
as a political pro gram upon which the
work Of reconstruction will be prose-
cuted.
The candidacy of Judge Parker be-
gan and ended with a coterie of New
York politicians who assured the south
and middle western states that he could
carry New York and other eastern
states carried by Cleveland in 1884,
1883 and 1892 such as Connecticut,
Delaware, New Jersey, New York and
West Virginia.
The south, anxious to beat Roosevelt
and hungering for federal patronage,
yielded to the opportunity and fell into
line. Pennsylvania, Michigan, Indiana,
and other states followed suit and de-
spite the opposition of Hearst there
never was any serious doubt as to
Parkers nomination. Prior to the
st. Louis convention, however, the
democratic party was seriously han
dicapped by gag rule conventions in
Illinois, Indiana, flew Jersey. and 9TH

Sheehan the Party Boss.
Judge Parker's campaign was man.
aged almost exclusively by former
Governor William F. Sheehan of New

ex-senator David B. Hin as the par

as the state cow ention In New York
was concerned this was true But it
became apparent ut the ST. Louis con-
vention that Sheet an was the real boss
and that Parker looked chiefly to him
for advice. 1t will be recalled that
Parker's famous gold telegram was
addressed to Sheehan and Ii is history
that Sheehan has beer the Parker

ACCUSES POLICE
OF FAvORITISM
Judge Dickinson Scores Ad-
ministration of Law as
to Gambling.

Judge III. D. Dickinson, of the mu-
nicipal court, is of the opinion that the
police authorities are playing favorites
and for this reason he gave Scott Phil
lips, colored man arrested for run
ming a gambling house at 317 First av-
enue south, the option of paying fine.
The police offered evidence to the eff
feet that Phillips had been running
gambling house. Lieut.. REVERE and
Sergeant Russell, of the Central sta
tion, testified and after sufficient evil
dence to secure a conviction had been
secured, the judge directed Lieut.. Re-
Were to take the stand again. Then
the judge began to ask questions. One
question was:
rs there any attempt being made,
officer, to close all the gambling houses
of the city? Do you not know that
there Is place at 20 First avenue
south?"
The lieutenant's answer did not seem
to satisfy the court, and then the fol-
lowing statement was delivered from
the bench:
From this man Phillips careless tes-
timony feel inclined to pass a straight
sentence, but until 1 am thoroughly
convinced that there is an earnest and
genuine endeavor on the part of the
police to clean out all the gambling
houses in the city, / will not pass a
straight sentence to have it used by
others as an instrument to allow a GER
tain few gambling houses to run wide
open. The sentence in this case is SIS
or eighty days."

KOBBE WAITS A DAY
Confirmation IS Delayed by
Mix-Up of Lists.

WASHINGTON, d. c., Jan. 1.-THE
failure of the senate in executive ses-
sion to confirm the nominations of
Brig. Gems. Wilson A. Kobbe, ]. II.
Sanger, Alfred E. Bates and Wallace A.
Randolph to be major generals and
then placed on the retired list, resulted
in the circulation of a report that they
would not be given their advanced
rank before retirement.
Members of the military committee
disposed of the rumor, however, by the
statement that the nominations would
be confirmed tomorrow. 1t was de-
clared no objections had been raised
to these combinations.
The senate confirmed the nonina-
ton of Brig. Gen. George L. Gillespie,
chief of engineers, to be a major gen
eral on the active list, and this gave
impetus to the rumors which were
started Immediately on the announce
ment that no action l1adebeen taken on
the brigadier generals to be. promoted
and retired. The nomination lists be-
came mixed through an error in the
report of the senate committee on mil
itary affairs. The rank of@the nominee
dates from the time the nominations
were sent to the senate without regard
to the date of confirmation, and there
fore the error will have no effect on
the plans of the president and the war
department for the advancement and
retirement of the brigadier generals
mentioned.
Today's confirmation included Mai.
Gen. Ada r. Chaffee, to be lieutenant
general, and Col Alexander Mckenzie.
to be brigadier general and chief of
engineers.

have no hangings this year, though but a
few days ago it seemed probable that six
men would pay the penalty of law ON the
scaffold. The supreme court has practical
ly ordered torn down the scaffolds at Fort
Madison and Anamosa for yesterday it
reversed the two remaining cases in
which sentence of death had been pro-
nounced. Harry Hortman, of Cherokee,
who was to be hanged for the murder of
his sweetheart, Florence Porter, and
Richard Williams, of Buxton who was to
be hanged for the murder of ]. W. Sharp
er, will each be given new trials on error
of the lower courts Under the law no
sentence of death can become effective
for one year, and less than twelve months
ago six sentences were in effect Hort
mans neck was saved by the error of
the trial judge in refusing, to grant him
the privilege of changing his plea of
guilty to mot guilty"
Hortman, in a jealous rage, after being
rejected by Miss Porter. pursued her to
her chamber in a Cherokee hotel and shot
her. He was indicted for murder in the
first degree. His attorney 1demurred to
the Indictment and this was overruled
Upon advice of the court thA man pleaded
guilty, but when he learned a death SEN
tence was to be imposed begged to change
his plea. This was denied him. The su-
preme court holds he has, a right to
change his plea any time prior to SEN
tence. y
