BRYAN MEN ACCUSED
Trying bOIiSh TWo-thirds

JOHNSON ROOMERs COMPLAIN

of Party when Denver Convention
Is CaIIed-Petigrev for Secretary
of Treasury Is Latest RumOr.

Chicago. April IA move 10 eliminate
the historic "two-thirds rule" from the
regulations governing the Democratic ma
tional convention at Denver in July, is
charged to the Bryan enthusiasts by the
campaign managers of Gov. Johnson, Of
Minnesota.
The Johnsonians say the Bryanites have
become panic stricken over the progress
made by their candidate and his demand
for uninstructed delegations.
THE plan 90 send unlnstrueted delega-
tions 10 Denver is making so much prog
ress in the Democratic camp that some
OF the parusaHs Of W. J. Bryan are
becoming alarmed over the outlook"
reads a statement given out at the John
son headquarters to-day. They fear the
anti-Bryan sentiment will be represented
by nearly, or, perhaps, half, the dele
gates, and they apprehend in any event
there will be sufficient strength to pre-
vent Mr.. Bryan's nomination by the two
thirds vote required by the rules govern
ing Democratic national conventions.
Pettlgrew for Treasury.
Il Is understood Senator Stone, of Mis-
souri,, is drafting "A resolution TO be Of
fered at Denver. changing the traditional
rule to a majority The two-thirds rule
has governed Democratic national con-
ventions since 1SS2
The Johnson managers endeavored to
stir up more trouble for Mr.. Bryan with
the following statement anent the Ne
braskans possible selection for one of his
Cabinet positions should he be elected:
II ex-senator r. f. PettigTew. OF
South Dakota, is to be taken at his word
Mr.. Bryan has already chosen his Secre-
tary of the Treasury. The favored one
is none other than Mr.. PettigreW himself
1t was not generally reported that way.
but the fact is that AZ the South Dakota
Democratic convention on April Z, Mr.
Pettigrew had ii announced from the plat
form that he was 10 be Secretary Of the
Treasury in the event of Mr.. Bryan s
election. PettigTeW was one of the orr
ginal free silver Republicans, and from
that fact il IS possible TO obtain some idea
OF the principles that would govern him
as Secretary of the Treasury"

VIII Not Run for GOvernOrship q
Second Time.


Second Time.
New York, April 13,-Gov. Hughes, since
the adjournment OF the session of the
legislature last year. has been determined
he would not run again for governor.
He has not changed his mind, it was
definitely learned tonight. To the sug-
gestion that he might decide to run for
governor again, in order to carry on his
fight against race-track betting, a close
friend of the governor said tonight that
the governor had not found such a course
necessary to meet that situation. as the
governor has a firm belief that the anti
race track legislation viii be enacted into
law during his present term as governor.
Neither has Gov. Hughes taken himself
out of the Presidential race. His position
on this question is just as it has been all
along.

KIBBEY REAPPOINTED GOVERNOR
President Has Sent His Name to Sc

Washington, D. c, Dec. 16.- President Roosevelt today sent to the senate the name of Joseph H. Kibbey for renomination to the post of governor of Arizona, to take effect at the expiration of his pre- sent term in February
 Gov. Kibbey Is at present in Washington, where, together with Marcus A. Smith, he is endeavor- ing to secure statehood for Ari- Zona.
 Joseph H. Kibbey has been gov ernor of Arizona for the past four years. having been appointed by President Roosevelt. His confir- nation by the senate will mean a renomination, but he will hardly serve the full term, as 1t is expect ed by him and all other prominent Arizonans in the ca pital that Ari- zona will secure statehood at this short session, or if that be not ac- we will at least secure the passage of the enabling act next spring.
