ILLINOIS CONVENTION
 "WETNESS" AND BRYAN
The Expected Demonstration In Favor of
 Johnson Did Not MateriaIize
The Chief Contest of the Day Arose Over a Flank In the Platform Declaring Against Sumptuary Leg islatiOn.

Springfield. Ills. April 23.-The H. linois democracy today adopted the unit rule and instructed the delegates to the Denver convention to vote for Bryan and ito use all honorable means to secure his nomination.
 After hot fight in the resolutions committed which was carried into the convention. the party adopted in the party plauorm a nlank declaring in favor Of the greatest possible person. al liberty" to individuals. provided such liberty does not infringe upon the rights of other people. The plank is as follows:
 We believe that the orderly GUS toms and habits long pursued should not be disturbed by intolerance and we hereby declare in favor of the fundamental doctrine of democracy, the free government which gives to the individual the largest measure of personal liberty SO long as he does not infringe on the personal rights of others. We are opposed to all sump- tuary laws"
 Instead of naming the usual four delegates and alternates at large to the national convention it was decid- ed to send eight. allowing each man one-half a vote. Two presidential at large were also chosen.
 The resolution endorsing Bryan was adopted with enthusiasm and a flat tering demonstration followed that ac- tion. For all that, however. it was not worded entirely to the satisfaction of Bryan's most enthusiastic support CTS. In the last few minutes of the convention Judge owen Thompson of Jacksonville. declared that Bryan had been sold out and demanded stronger resolution to be passed. He desired to have the instructions so worded that nlionis would be bound to support Bryan as long as his name was before the convention. His effort was made in the last few minutes of the convention and it met the usual fate of new business that is sprung upon hot, weary. hungry. thirsty dele gates who are anxious to catch trains for homes. It was swiftly and over whelmingIy defeated.
 The convention however. showed a sincere enthusiasm for Bryan. When his name was mentioned there was in variably great applause and the read ing of the resolution in his favor was greeted with cheers. The ap- plause, it is true, came more from the delegates from other counties than Cook and other cities than Chicago. z Roger C. Sullivan. who dominated the convention from first to last. did not applaud Bryan's name at the time.
Arizona republican., 1908-04-24

but Sullivan is not the kind of a man who is given to applauding things. no matter how strong his approval may be.
 When the demonstration was in progress after the reading of the Bry- an resolution he arose and stood un- til the cheers had subsided and then resumed his seat.
 The fight over the personal liberty or liquor plank in the platform. was warm and long It delayed the con ventiOn nearly two hours and then a minority of seven presented a report urging that the plank be entirely omitted. Nineteen members of the committed favored it, and the cOnven- tiOn sustained thenl-S49 to 646. Of the total in favor of the plank. 535 votes came from Cook county. Threk- quarters of the country delegations voted against it, but the heavy vote of Chicago was too much for them Considerable feeling was manifested during the roll call which laid the minority report upon the table.
 Johnson men were not in evidence throughout the convention and no res olution bearing his name was intro duced.

Washington, April 22-Amendments to the naval bill were offered in the senate today by Senator Gore of Okla homa to allow the building of the new battleships and submarine boats, etc, authorized by the bill at any shipyard in the world. and taking away the re- strictiOns in favor of domestic steel. MT. Gore had no support for his first motion to permit the building of the ships abroad; sixty-two votes were registered against him.
 His second motion to strike out the provision that in all or part these ships the steel material used in them shall be o1 domestic manufacture. On the motion of MT. Hale the amendment was laid on the table, IS to 3. MT. Gore secured the support of Senators Ba- con. Culberson, Dayis. Gary, McCreary. Milton. Money and Simons, all demo- crats. In offering these amendments MT. Gore delivered passionate appeal to the senate to strike a blow at the steel trust
 MT. Gore offered the amendment he said to rescue the country from the tolls of the steel trust which he re- garded as the tapeworm of the treas ury." The steel trust, he said, not only holds up the country but it had held up the American merchant marine.
 Replying to a question MT. Hale said the United States was paying S4l6 per ton for armor: Germany paid s45O; France $500 and England S625 per toK Mir. Hale insisted that the investiga- tion of the steel trust some years ago brought about a reduction in the price of armor from s55O and S6OO to S416 An amendment by MT. Hale reducing the stipulated speed of two colliers from Is to 14 knots was adopted.
 On the motion of Mir Hale the amount made by the house of S1,000.000 toward the construction of eight sub marine torpedo boats, was increased to $3.OOO 900 which may be applied to- ward the completion of the submarine boats heretofore authorized.
 An amendment appropriating $500. 900 for a new trunk in the battle ship hoist" proposed by MT. Hale. was adopted. An amendment was agreed to appropriating S7.O00,O00 to ward the construction, machinery, ar nor and armament of the vessels au- thorized in the bill.
 The pay Of enlisted men of the hos pital corps Of the navy was the same as that of seamen of corresponding rating by a committee amendment which was adopted. On a point of order made by MT. Lodge. the commit

DECISION FOR SULLIVAN.
1t Was His Fight in Almost Every
 Round Against Jimmy Gardner.

Ring side. Vernon, Los Angeles. April 23.-In the greater arena, erect ed just outside the city, of the Jef- ferries Athletic club, Mike Sullivan. of Boston, was given the decision over Jimmy Gardner, of Lowell. Mass, after twenty-five rounds of hard fighting all in favor of Sullivan.
 The verdict oc James J. Jeffries. the referee. was a popular one. in spite of soasmodic efforts made by Gardner to show himself entitled to consideration as welterweight aspi- rant. Sullivan had science, and cool ness but as usual he lacked strength to deliver a knockout, although sever al times he had Gardner at his mercy and slugged- away at his unprotected jaw without power to bring about earlier result.
 With a continual succession of left jabs Sullivan almost closed one of Gardner's eyes, covered his face with blood and wore him down until the Lowell man was clearly out of the battle.
 In the eighteenth and nineteenth rounds Gardner attempted rushing tactics, but Sullivan was wary and kept away. Gardners one shade of advantage was in the fifth round when he staggered Sullivan with a right swing flush on the jaw.
 In the fifteenth round of the pre- liminary, Kid Bell of Denver, made a miserable showing against Leonard Lauder of Los Angeles, who was given the decision.
 The crowd in attendance filled but a small section of the arena

THE HOUSE.

Washington. April 23-By the over whelming vote of 245 to S. the house today, after several hours discussion. adopted without amendment the sen ate joint resolution authorizing the at torney general to file suits against the Oregon and California railroad com pany for the forfeiture of all or part of 2.S00 900 acres of land grants in the western part of Oregon. It is claimed by the government that by reason of breaches and violations of the acts making the grants. the rail- road company has forfeited its rights to the land in question. The sentiment of the house was practically unani nous that the suits would work no hardship on bona fide purchasers of homesteads from the company. The resolution was introduced in the sen ate by MT. Tillman and passed by that body.

BATTLESHIP MONEY
 FINALLY FORTHCOMING
A Senate Amendment Provides That Two

Failure Remove the Restrictions In Favor Of Do- mestic Builders and Also In Favor of American Steel Manufacturers

tee amendment giving naval staff or 70 ficers a rank on the same basis as pro- vided for staff officers rank and the same basis as provided for staff and army. and providing that the command of vessels shall be exercised only by line officers was stricken from the bill as general legislation.
 On the motion of MT Dick of Ohio. the bill was amended so as to allow six months pay to the heirs of officers and men of the navy dying in service. Irons as means of punishment were barred from the navy by a provision inserted in the bill by MT. Nelson of Minnesota. MT. Nelson had a letter to read saying that they were sup posed to be eliminated from the navy as a matter of punishment yet they were still used.
 When the bill had been nearly com pleted. Senator Piles of Washington. offered an amendment increasing the number of battleships from two to four and asking at the same time that the final consideration of the measure be postponed until tomorrow.
 MT. Hale believed that the senate had made up it's mind about the mat ter but as two or three senators want ed to speak on the subject he favored a postponement of the consideration Of the amendment until tomorrow. MT Rayner of Maryland spoke today of the constitutional rights of the state and executive encroachment He in sisted that the commerce act of the constitution had been interpreted as applying to the industrial life of the country to a far greater degree than was contemplated by the framers Of the constitution. He- regretted the ten dency of democrats to look upon the president as a guide and he declared that the president could not be accept ed as his Messiah
