cred dispersed.
The attorneys on both sides of the
case deplored the incident. and
Judge Shackleford was very sorry
that it had occurred, especially just
at this time.
That Sheriff Fitzpatrick acted
wholly on his own judgment is not
doubted. He thinks that Judge Hill

therefore approached him. Judge
Hilton declares that he has not at

court are anxious that no sensation

sum of $3.50, 1000, 900 hiss been trans
ferred from the pockets of American and
German manufacturers to English manu-
fscturers within the last six months by
the operation Of the new English patent
law, according to figures made public
here today.
The law provides that if foreigner is
granted a patent 10 Great Britain the
goods must be manufactured on British
soil. The operation of the law has
worked to Eugland's industrial sdvan'
II &c in fsr greater degree than i'm
sglned by lis trainers.

he controller of patents may cause to
be revoked any patent granted longer

any foreigner who manufactures the
goods covered by the pstett exclusively
or mainly" outside the United Kingdom.
Foreign manufacturers are groSiog

Vice Presidential Situation.

Dsnver, July l0.-Feeliug the
necessity OF voting within few hours
for q running msts for Bryan, the
democratic hosts have now no more
idea of whom they will name for their
vice presidential candidate than they
had before the convention began. The
leaders, those in close touch With Brysn
himself, may know he name that is to
be added to the ticket, but II they do
they are keeping 1t closely to them
selves.
The probabilities are that every favor
ite son who had received q compliment
tsry mention In connection with this
nomination will be bslloted fer.
OF the numerous candidstes one will
finally be chosen who is satisfactory TO
Bryan and st the same time acceptable
to New York. The Empire State dele
CATION could nominate its man at the
stut fit go desired, but Murphy assumes
a sphiux-like attitude when the subject
is mentioned to him and is disposed to
let Bryan make the yics presidential can
didsts as he did the platform.
Towne, OF New York; Ollie James, of
Kentucky; Folk, of Missouri; Burton
Harrisop, of New York; Mcneil, of
Connecticut; Mitchell, of Illinois, and
Francis, of Missouri, each has follow
ing. Among this list 1t Is believed is the
chosen one.
The elder democratic statesmen from
the south are advising against the selec-
ton of a southerner for the same old
resson-that the southern states will go
democratic anyway aud that the candi-
date should come from contested sec
ton. Despite the attitude on their part,
Congressman Ollie james Is a great fay
orite among the delegst,s and he iu-
creased his popularity and his chances
for the nomination by his remarkably
effective speech early this mOraiug sec
onding BrYan's nomina lion.
Conferences on the subject were in
progress during the morning One in
particular which it was thought might
have important results was held In the
rooms of Charles Bryan, brother oil the
presidential nominee.
Among those who participated besides
Bryan we're Lewis Nixon, OF New York,
and Ollie James. The later announced
that his name would not go before the
convention. Tom Tsggsrt wss busy
pushing the candidacy OF Kern, of To-
diana. Mayor Dshlmsn, of Omaha,
said that The Nebraska vote would BIZ
split among several candidates.

Mr.. Bryan Pleased with Platform.

Fsirview, Lincoln, Neb, July TO-
III am very much pleased with the
plsttorm. II is clear. specific and strong,
and am grateful ID the convention for
the work it has done in stating the is-
sues. am sure that the platform will
crafty strengthen us In the fight upon
which we are entering" The above
statement was made by Bryan upon read
ing the platform adopted by the demo-
cratic convention this morning.
Immediately aft9r MIR. Bryan received
positive assurance Of bis nomination, he
gave out this st-tsmept
"The presidency is the highest official
position in the world and no one occu-
plying it can afford TO have his views
upon public quest ous bifssd by personal
ambition. Recognizing bis responsibility
and his obligations to his counlrymen,
he should enter upon the discharge OF
his duties with singleness Of purpose.
Believing that one can best do this when
he is not planning for q second term, l
announce now, as have ON former &C.
casions, that If elected, | shall not be a
candidate for reelection. This ia a nom.
Instion as purely from the people as can
be, and II elected my obligations will be
as purely to the people. l appreciate
the honor the more because it came not
from one person or few persons, but
from the rank add file, acting freely and
without compulsion.
