pitched the afternoon game for San
Francisco, and pitched good enough
ball to win had his teammates been
able to sting the ball at the proper
time. Loucks was the same old puzzle
and kept hits few and far between.
The winning run came in the sixth,
when Santa Cruz made two hits. The

Do NOT GIVE BRYAN
SOUTHERN STATES
JoI Managers Say That
Nebraskan Will Have
Much Opposition.
WALKAWAY Is IMPOSSIBLE.
THEY FURTHER STATE THAT
PEERLESS ONE WILL NOT BE
NOMINATED ON FIRST, SECOND
OR THIRD BALLOTS.

Chicago, May Ex-Governor John A.
Johnson's campaign managers have
announced they were justified in de-
claring that William Jennings Bryan
would not be nominated on the first
ballot at the Denver convention, nor
upon the second nor third ballot.
Frederick B. Lynch gave out a state
ment, in which he goes over the dele
CATION situation in detail. The
Southern states, the statement says,
hold the key to the democratic situa.
tion as most of them have as yet to Sc
lect and instruct delegates. They have
80 votes and the Johnson managers
assert, more than half Of them will be
against Bryan, making more than one
third of the national gathering hostile
to the Nebraskan.
The nominee Of the democratic par.
ty will be named at Denver-and not
before" says the Johnson manager
practically all the unInstructed dele
gates will be with Governor johnson
from the states. There is every assur
ance that a number of other delegates
will come TO him on the second ballot
Bryan's nomination would seem to be

MAY Be SUICIDE PACT
Men in the JeffersonviIle Re-
formatory Said to
Want to Die.
PREVENT THIRD ATTEMPT.

Jacksonville Ind. May 2S.-The
third attempt at suicide in the India
ana reformatory was thwarted by the
vigilance of an officer, who found a
man sitting on a bed with a sheet torn
in strips, apparently prepared to end
his life in the manner adopted by
John Roach Monday night. The Of
ficer who found him called NJ. NJ. Bar
nard, assistant superintendent, and by
direction later everything that could
possibly be used in self destruction
was taken from the cell
Mr. Barnard scouts the theory OF a
suicide pact and says that Roach and
Stillwell could not have known each
other. He admits they both worked
in the shop department, but in differ
ent shops, under different officers. and
marched between the cells to and
from the shop in different lines, and
probably did not know each other by
sight.

After the Aveline Hotel fire in FIT

Twelve sturdy men gathered in the
