Denver, July 6.-With practically all
the delegates now here, there seems
no reason to doubt that Bryan will
not have a safe majority on the first
ballot. In fact there's considerable
talk of nomination by acclamation.
The latter is considered by the con-
servatives as unlikely.
The adoption of Bryan's Say what

The vice-presidential nomination
still belongs to anybody. Gray may
have it thrust upon him. Kern's boom
is still booming. Connecticut is all for
McNeill and New York has not CEN
tralized on any one of her dozen pos
sibilities. 1t is estimated that fifty
thousand delegates and visitors are in
Denver.
Governor John A. Johnson, of Min
nesota. is going to get out of Bryan's
way for the presidency, and Judge
George Gray is likely to do SO before
the time for making the nomination
occurs.
The determination of the Johnson
men to quit the fight was reached
Sunday. 1t is a definite decision and
Governor Johnson knows of it and ap-
proves. 1t was reached after long
conference between the Johnson man.

which the latter dispelled all hopes of
New York support for the Minnesota
candidate.
The complete surrender is not to be
officially announced, until after the
fight on the platform is over. Then
there will come a message or a let
ter from Governor Johnson asking
that his name shall not be presented
and requesting harmony. The plans
to that end are all made. The ghost

therefore, be kept up until after the

San Antonio won the international
championship race over the other
eight competitors. which started from
the grounds of the Aeronauticue club
of Chicago, Saturday night.
All of the balloons, with their freight
of eighteen human souls. are safely
back to earth. Several of the aero
nauts, notably the two who dangled
beneath the "Columbia', were injured
in landing. Captain Peterson had a
rib broken and both he and Charles
H. Leichliter were cut on barb wire
fence when they came down in a farm
er's field at Clinton. Ont.
Some of the balloons had narrow
escape from falling into Lake Michi-
gan, and the experience of the French
entry, Vile de Dieppe, constitutes one
of the most thrilling chapters as vet
written in the history of aerial travel.
Colonel A. E. Mueller and George
Schoeneek, the aeronauts who sailed
in the Willie de Dieppe" from Chica-
go, came to earth near South Haven,
Mich, during the night. after having
been dragged for over 10 miles along
the surface of Lake Michigan. They
