ENDS IN GREAT CONFUSION
New York Democratic Convention a
Turbulent affair,

iS6W foTk OSInOCTdLIC convention a
Turbulent affair.
New York, April 1 Amid scenes
of turbulence and great confusion the
state Democratic convention ad-
journed half an hour after midnight
After bitter contest the convention
unseated Patrick H. McCarren and
the delegates from ten districts OF
Kings county, seated the McCabe del
egates from Albany county, elected
four delegates at large and alternates
to the national convention and dele
gates from the various congressional
districts, chose the presidential elec-
tors and elected a new state commit
tee. The delegates to Denver are I'M
instructed.
The scenes of disorder which devel
oped from the rejection of the McCar-
rem delegates were increased when a
resolution was unexpectedly sprung
under which the members of the new
state committee were chosen by the
convention as whole instead of each
district electing it's own members.
This resolution was read amid so
great hubbub that many of the dele
gates declared afterward that they did
not hear it or know what it was about
At the close of a roll call it was de-
clared adopted by vote of 254 to 1873
At this announcement the convention
became in an uproar. Delegates
poured from their seats into the aisles
after name after name was read and
there were shouts of robbers"
"thieves,' courageous" and the Off
GERS of the convention were denounced
in vigorous language.

Refuses to Discuss Action of New
York Democrats.

Jackson, Mich, April 1 William
Jennings Bryan was given an enthusi-
astic welcome by large crowd when
he arrived here from Lansing. He
was escorted to a carriage which,
headed by the Second regiment band
and followed by number of carriages,
paraded up Main street to the hotel,
where public reception was held.
When approached for an expression
in regard to the action of the New
York Democratic state convention he
refused absolutely to discuss the mat
ter or make any statement in regard
to it. He admitted that he had read
the newspaper reports of the conven-
ton carefully, but stood fast on his
determination not to discuss it, saying
he did not care to indulge in any per-
SOnalities

Alleged That He Believes Money Is
Being Used Against Him.
Lansing, Mich, April 1S.-William
Jennings Bryan left this city discom-
flied and angry over the action Of the
Democratic state committee in refus-
ing to indorse him for the presidency.
This is known to be the fact in spite
of his smiling concurrence in the COM
mittees action and his remark in ef-
feet that it was up to the committee
to act as it saw fit. When he was
told the news he was visibly sur
prised, but didn't allow himself to saw
much about it.
1t is known that Mr.. Bryan was
making this inquiry: -.,
who are the men who voted in
the committee against the resolution
of Endorsement"
He got the information and pom
dered over it.
Then came broad intimation from
the Nebraslzan that he believes money
is being used against him in Michigan,
and that the money is furnished by
the hnanciers of the Johnson presi-
Dental campaign.

sages Cannot Become Laws.
Washington, April 1.-THE leaders
of congress have notified the presi-
dent that several laws which he de-
sired to have enacted at this session
will not be put through. A recapitula-
ton shows that when the session
ends congress will probably have
failed to pass many of the most i'm
portant measures recommended by
the president. They are as follows:
Restricting the power of the fed
erai courts in the issuance of injunc-
lions in labor disputes; amending the
Sherman antitrust law so as to estab-
lish system of federal licenses for
interstate corporations to enable the
railroads to form traffic associations
so as to secure greater stability of
rates and returns; to remove some of
the restrictions from combinations of
labor; to prohibit railroads from
blacklist ting union employees; empow.
ering the interstate commerce COM
mission to control future issues of
stocks and bonds of railroad property;
to permit the attorney general to
name one of the receivers appointed
for insolvent railways; to remove the
duty on wood pulp; to provide for the
construction of four .battleships in
stead of two; to establish postal say
ings banks.
These following are the measures
which the leaders have agreed to put
through if possible:
Making more elastic the currency;
granting compensation to government
employees injured while in the govern
ment service; prohibiting child labor
in the District Of Columbia; authorize
ing the ways and means committee of
the house and the finance committee
of the senate to give hearings prelim-
mary to a revision Of the tariff; ap-
propriating a sum sufficient to enable
the inland waterways commission to
continue the work on which it started
last year.

rtll of Minneapolis. Mr.. Cole then
gave the gavel to former Congress-
man Samuel P. Snider of Minneapolis,
who had been selected for temporary
chairman.
Mr.. Snider, in addressing the con-
vention, declared that the Republican
party was committed to the doctrine
of protection, but that a revision of
the tariff should now be made. He
declared that the Republican party
was united in the support of the policy
that public service corporations should
be controlled and also to the policy
that such corporations should not be
wronged.
John A. Dalzell of Morton was
elected temporary secretary and then
the delegates voted to dispense with
rules, as there were no contests for
seats. State Senator Ripley Brewer
Of st. Cloud was unanimously chosen
permanent chairman and Mr.. Dalzell
was made permanent secretary. On
being introduced to the convention
Senator Brewer said:
State Unanimous for Taft.
I'm all my political life have never
before seen the assembling of a con-
vention where with one voice they
stand for one man and that man is
the matchless secretary of war, Will
lam H. Taft.
There is one concrete proposition
that the people of this state stand for
Minnesota asks at the hands of Re-
publican congress reasonable re-
vision of the tariff. If we cannot get
it at the hands of the friends of the
tariff I fear for what we can expect
from it's enemies.''
AS soon as he had finished his
speech, which lasted about fifteen
minutes, Chairman Brewer was au-
thorized to appoint committee on
resolutions to, be composed of one
delegate from each of the nine con-
gressional districts.
W. B. Parsons of Winona surprised
the convention by withdrawing from
the race for delegate at large and
moving that the four other candidates
be chosen by reclamation. After sew
eral hearty seconding speeches the
motion was carried by a rising vote.
The delegates at large are Frank B.
Kellogg of st. Paul, Walter w. Heffel-
finger of Minneapolis, E. B. Hawkins
of Biwabik and Frank E. Putnam of
Blue Earth.
The committee on resolutions, with
M. D. Mum of St. Paul as chairman,
was then appointed and withdrew to
draft the platform.
+. E. Bentley of Montevideo, c. NJ
Sprague of Sank Center, D. c. Shell
don of Pine Island and W. B. Mari Of
Aitkin were chosen alternates at large
by reclamation.
The following were nominated for
presidential electors: At large, John
]. Eckland, Duluth, and Job Lloyd,
LIE Sueur county; First district. R. r
Thompson; Second district, Andrew c.
Dunn; Third district, H. L. Sumption;
Fourth district, James B. Melin; Fifth
district, Stewart Gamble; Sixth dis
trict, H. A. Turritin; Seventh district,
Thomas Anderson; Eighth district,
Daniel Anderson; Ninth district, E.

While the convention was waiting
for the platform addresses were made
by the men who had been elected del
egates at large.
The platform was then read by Mr..
Mum and adopted by a rising vote.
