National Committee be sustained.

National Committee be sustained.
In the New York, Illinois and Dis
trict Of Columbia cases, the national
committee was sustained. The fight
of Oklahoma for eighteen delegates
in stead of fourteen, resulted In vic.
tory for the new State.
The decision of the committee adds
four Bryan votes in Oklahoma, and
reduces the anti-Bryan vote in Penn
sylvania.
The supreme fight Of today RACES
about the contest over Pennsylvania,
and the displacement Of Col. James
NJ. Guffey, for years leader Of the
Pennsylvania democracy. The COM
mittee's action is a complete victory
for the element friendly to Bryan.
Guffey's lieutenants announced their
determination to fight to the last
ditch in the convention. Col. Guffey
was fairly stunned when told Of the
action of the committee.
Before the convention met there
was a great parade Of Tammany men
from New York, who, headed by
band and a number of gaudily attired
Indians, wound their way around the
business section. One thousand men
were in line, among them being Char
les P. Murphy and other big men Of
Tammany.
The Bryan men came tramping into
the convention with cheerful faces an
much laughter. The events Of the
night and early morning were much
to their liking, and they we're more
confident than ever Of the ultimate
success of their candidate.
Colonel Guffey walked down the
aisle to his place and got cheers fror
a number Of the delegates. The ses
sion was very brief, and the conven
ton soon took a recess until eight to
night, when stirring scenes and high
colored incidents are expected. Th
delay was made necessary by the In
ability Of the committee on creder
tials to have its report ready befor
two this afternoon. The committee o
resolutions was also making slow pr
gress. s>s
