BRYAN CONSIDERS
SOURCE OF ATTACK
BY Associated Press.


LINCOLN, Neb., Sept. S.-"You can
expect that kind of attack from that
llinu of people," said w. j. Bryan this
morning regarding the attack made on
him last night by Roger Sullivan OF
Illinois.
Mr.. Bryan said he was not prepared
to answer Mr.. Sullivan's charges and
could not say just when he would issue
a statement regarding the Illinois sit
uation.
The inference from his replies was
that he would have a formal declara-
ton ready within a few days.
Bearing on Sullivan's assertion that
Bryan had told an untruth the latter
was asked this afternoon:
rs it not a fact that you did not
write a personal letter to Sullivan ask
ing him to resign?'
II did not write to Sullivan" replied
Mr.. Bryan. 81 wrote to Judge Thomp-
son and asked him to show the letter to
Sullivan. l did not assert that l had
written a personal letter to Sullivan"
Have you the signed request of a
majority OF the delegates to the st.
Louis convention asking for the re-
pudiation of Sullivan?"
IT do not care to make any state
ment on that point. 1 expect to make n
statement on the affair within a few
days, but do not want to give it out
in an interview"
Did you notice the challenge made
by SulliVan?"
Eyes; but I must be excused from
making any reply in an interview"

Resolutions Passed Declare That Los

Trouble In Mexico
Special to The Herald.

Special to The Herald
DOUGLAS, Ariz., Sept. S.-When the
city council adjourned tonight those
present declared themselves in mass
meeting assembled to take action upon
the outrageously distorted stories
printed in the Los Angeles Examiner
the past week. The stories were desig-
mated as being wholly untruthful and
extremely to the prejudice of all inter-
ests in this section.
Many of the most influential citizens
of Douglas were present.
Scathing remarks were made by
Mayor w. M. Anderson, Franklin B.
Dorr, editor of the Dispatch, w. B.
Kelley editor of the international
American, c.. A. Taylor, county super
visor, and others.
They passed strong resolutions con-
demning such eXaggera tions and
| agreed to prepare true statement of
facts as they were and are, and this
statement will be sent to the Examiner
tomorrow night with the request that
it be published in the paper which has
! worked this community so much harm.
The Douglas people present did not
enter into a discussion of the disturb
ing political condition, which interior
Mexico seems to be facing, but they
did and do emphatically deny that ever
there were any 5000 men marching on
Douglas" or any 10000 men hidden in
the halfway house." Or that this city
is at all in the path of death and de-
struction.
A committee was appointed to send
the Examiner a signed statement of
facts tomorrow night.

BOISE, Idaho, Sept. s.-Steve Adams

of habeas corpus.
He Immediately was rearrested on
telegram from the sheriff or Denver,
charging him with the murder of Lyte
Gregory in May, 1904.
Gregory was employed as a detective
and special officer by a private Den
yer agency and had previously spent
several years working for the police
and detective departments in that city.
While on his way home from Edward
Cleary's saloon In West Denver at a
late hour on the night of May Is, 1904,
Gregory was shot down just at the
entrance of an alleyway.
1t was some time before an alarm
was raised and the police notified, and
Gregory's assassin made good his es-
cape.
Examination disclosed the fact that
ten bullets were fired into Gregory's s
body John Combes, a carpenter was
the only person arrested, and as it was
impossible to connect him with the
crime the authorities released him after
an Investigation.
Only a few weeks before his death
Gregory was named by William War

Los Angeles County Now Favors San Francisco's
Stalwart, Who Will Accept Nomination
Only Upon the Condition That
1t Comes Voluntarily

Every indication points to the NOM
nation of Hon. James D. Phelan of
San Francisco for governor by the
Democratic conven ton which will meet
in Sacramento Tuesday.
Since the declination of Nathan Cole,
jr,, for business reasons, to permit the
use of his name for the nomination of
governor, practically the entire dele
cation from Los Angeles county has
expressed itself favorably to Mr..
Phelan as being the best man the
Democrats could select to lead the
Democratic hosts in the coming fight
against the machine-made ticket named
at Santa Cruz
With Mr.. Phelan at the head of the
Democratic ticket and standing on a
PLATFORM declaring opposition to cor
poratlon rule, it is the confident belief
of Democrats and the expressed fear
Of Republicans that the Democrats will
be able to defeat not only the Repub-
llcan nominee for governor but the
entire state ticket.
"The Leading Citizen"
I'm my opinion James D. Phelan is
the leading citizen of California, re-
gardless of politics." was the frank ad-
mission of a Republican yesterday.
He is an anti-machine man, honest in
politics as we'll as in private life, and
| believe that his nomination for gov
ernor by the Democrats would compel
the Republicans to use every endeaVor
to prevent defeat.
This feeling is shared by many Re-
publicans. At the Santa Cruz conven-
tion, which / attended as spectator,
heard pretty strong language against
the ticket as a whole, and the opinion
was expressed to me many times that
If the Democrats got together on Phelan
they would carry the state"
The only fear expressed by leading
Democrats of Los Angeles is that Mr.,
Phelan will not accept the nomina ton,
but it is stated with confidence by local
leaders of the party that Mr.. Phelan
will accept the nomination II 1t comes
to him voluntarily, but that he will
not make the slightest effort to secure
the honor.
Started in Monterey
Information from the north states
that the Phelan movement, which first
was started by Monterey Democrats,
has spread over the entire northern
section of the state. and 1t is considered
proba BILE by many of the Los Angeles
delegates that with the assurance that
he will accept. the nomination of Mr..
Phelan will be made by acclamation.
That there is not a scarcity of good
gubernatorial timber in the Democratic
ranks and that there is every indica-
ton of victory in November is shown
by the number of men whose names
have been put forward by their friends
as capable Of filing the high office Of
governor of California.
Marshall Diggs of Sacramento was
favorably mentioned among Democrats
until II was whispered about that Diggs
was the candidate OF Walter Parker,
the Republican boss in the employ of
the Southern Pacific. when Diggs stock
slumped at a rapid rate.
If 1t is fact that Mr.. Digs Is
