PARKER CHANGES RESOLUTION

New York Swung Its Votes Against
Bryan - VIII Adjourn as Mark Of
Respect to Cleveland.

DENVER. July 6.-Above the
hubub of the strenuous day before
the democratic national convention,
these main Developments stand out
prominently. The wave Of the Bryan
sentiment has increased to an appar-
emily overwhelming and irresistible
point and the nomination of the Ne
braskan seems now assured beyond a
reasonable. doubt: al efforts to unite
on vice-presidential candidate
proved futile and the convention will
begin deliberations tomorrow with
contest for the second place wide
open. The majority of the Pennsyl-
vania delegation in caucus named Col.
Guffel, the National Committee is in
open defiance OF Bryan's demand, for
his displacement and is on the heels
Of Gufey's, singing the pubic ar
raignment Of Bryan as a hypocrite,
migrate and a falsi6er." The New
York delegation appointed commit
tee to draft the platform and named
Judge Parker as the New York's rep
resentatiye on the platform commit
tee.
Caucuses was silent on the presi-
dental and vice-presidential situa-
tion. The Democratic National Com
mittee held their first meeting to con-
slider the contest which resulted in a
dismissal of the McCarrens of New
York contests and the seating of the
Sullivan's Illinois delegates,
For the first time tonight the oppo-
sition disclosed in figures showing
what might have happened had New
York announced its 78 votes to be
swung against Bryan. According to
this table the total of 34o votes or
considerably more, was enough to
block Bryan's nomination, if they
would have swung into line with
New York. The meeting was had late
today by the various antiBryan ele-
ment during which the situation was
fully canvassed and a practical agree
ment was reached that it is futile to
continue fight in view Of New York's
inaction,
Tomorrow's proceedings will be.
brief and after the preliminary organ
ization is effected adjournment will
be taken as a mark Of respect to
Cleveland.
Tonight the anti-Bryan men made
another effort to concentrate the OPP
position against the nomination Of
the Nebraskan and claim they are
now encouraged for the first time
since the delegations began to ar
rive. The movement was not how
ever, taken with deep seriousness by
the men who are leading the Bryan
.orces, The greatest effort was made
