CABINET PLACE FOR JOHNSON
Bryan Agrees TO Do Something for
Minnesota Man.

Denver, July An interesting echo
from Lincoln has reached here to the
effect that Mr.. Bryan has received
favorably the suggestion that the re-
cent pronounced antagonism of the
Bryan men to Governor Johnson Of
Minnesota shall be offset by the init
nation that in the event of Mr.. Bry-
ans election he will invite Johnson
to take a place in his cabinet One of
the many visitors to Mr.. Bryan who is
now here has pointed out to him that
the marked antagonism to Johnson
might ALLEVIATE the influential Scan
dinavian element, with which the Min
nesota governor is identified by birth
and association. Mr.. Bryan did not
relish the idea of playing politics, 81
but at the same time, it is said he
received the suggestion with consider
able favor and that IL the matter
could be freed from interested mo-
tives and political expediency he
would be inclined to let 1t be under
stood that Governor Johnson would be
favorably considered If the occasion
arises to form Bryan cabinet,

TOM JOHNSON FEELS HURT
Bryan Refused to Approve His Gov

Denver, July Mayor Tom l..
Johnson of Cleveland has a crouch
and a flattened boom for the chair
manship of the Democratic national
committee.
MIR. Johnson sat on the boom him
SELF stating that he would not accept
the craftsmanship were it offered him,
but another reason, Ohio delegates
who are here declare, is the fact that
Johnson will not be elected national
committeeman from Ohio and that his
defeat will rebound to the success of
Harvey c. Garger of Columbus.
Mayor Johnson's crouch is believed
to have been instigated by difference

self and Mr.. Bryan at Lincoln. The
Cleveland mayor carried to Mr.. Bry-
an a plank on government ownership
of railroads, a matter on which the
Nebraskan uttered some radical ideas
about, but which he has since been
keeping in his trunk.
Mayor Johnson asked Mr.. Bryan to
insist upon the Incorporation of the
government ownership plank in the
platform and Mr.. Bryan declared he
would not do so.

New York Delegation Holds Its First
Caucus.

Denver, July AT the New York
state caucus here the previous ar
ranged programme of the state lead
ers was carried out in every detail
No action was taken as to the presi:

Nixon was appointed the head of a
subcommittee of ten to draft a tenta.

subsequent caucus and TO be urged be-
fore the convention committee on res

A strong anti-injunction plank was
offered in the caucus and referred to
the subcommittee without debate.
Charles F. Murphy was made chair

ADJOURNMENT ON FRIDAY
Democratic Convention Expected to
Last Four Days.

Denver, July THE general ex-
peotation at present is that the Demo
cratic national convention will last
four days, with final adjournment
some time on Friday; but poten-
tialities of trouble as yet undeveloped
lie in several subjects still unsettled
and a positive forecast is impossible.
Even If it be assumed, as many do
assume, that Mr.. Bryan's nomination
Is practically a certainty there is still
the open question of the platform and
the controversy over the injunction
plank; the possible consumption of
time by the contests before the Gre
dentials committee and possibly on
the convention floor and the selection
of a candidate for the vice presidency.
The vice presidential problem took
a somewhat different turn when an
intimation was received through what
have hitherto proved reliable chan
ne!s to the effect that Mr.. Bryan be-
lieved both the logic and the strate.
gics of the situation to suggest the
propriety of deferring definite activi,
ties as to the second place on the
ticket until the first was disposed of.
This led to a perceptible falling off OF
the gossip on the subject and the
whole matter is for the moment side,
tracked. The situation in this regard
IS singularly like that which existed
at similar juncture in the Repub
lican convention at Chicago last
month.
To add still further to the parallel
with the Republican convention the
situation finds general interest In the
platform still confined almost wholly
to the proposed plank regarding the
use OF court injunctions, especially in
labor controversies. The labor repre-
sentatives on the ground, Gompers
Mitchell and others, are urgently
pressing their claims upon those wht
will presumably have important inhu
ence In the committee on resolutions

TAFT AT WORK KaO PLAY
Divides His Tine Between DUTY and

Hot Springs, Va, July when w.
H. Taft arose he more than ever rea-
lized what difficult task it is to be a
candidate fer the presidency and to
attempt to secure rest, even amid the
isolation Of the mountains of Virginia.
A dozen big boxes of records were de-
iivered to his Office and his secretary
superintended The work of arranging
their contents in the fileroom, where
they will be accessible during the
next two months A mass of CORE

work and recreation he accepted a
challenge of Frank B. Kellogg for an
other game of golf on the mountain
links The. presidential candidate and

soon after breakfast.
Mr.. Taft's horses have arrived and
hereafter he will alternate golf with
riding over the mountain paths. He
is a sufficient friend of his big horse
to ride Cnly every other day, believing
that to use the animal more frequent

Mr.. Taft feels that he is a subject
for congratulation because he has
signed all of his acknowledgements to

after his nomination He brought over
1900 of them from Washington and

Port au Prince, Hayti, July 7.-The
disastrous fire which started In the
vicinity of the palace and senate build

REBELS WIN IN PARAGUAY
Victorious Revolutionists in Complete
Control.

Buenos Ayres, July 7.-Adyices re,
ceived here state that the revolution,
lists have been victorious in Paraguay
and that a new government has been
established. These advices have been
confirmed by a dispatch received by
the minister of foreign affairs from
the Argentine legation at Asuncion,
officially notifying the minister that
the revolutionary party had succeed
ed in overt hrowing the Paraguayan
government and that several of the
Paraguayan ministers Of state had
taken refuge in the legation.
Fighting has been proceeding in
the streets Of Asuncion for some days
past and many of the public buildings
have been seriously damaged. Pre-
vious estimates of the killed and
wounded, however, have been exag
gerated, and II is now believed that
the number will not exceed 500. II is
expected that telegraphic communica
tion with Asuncion soon will be- re

WILL STAY IN FIGHT
Gray and johnson Backers Have
No Intention of Quitting.
SAY SITUATION IS HOPEFUL

Declare They Have Promises Of Sup
port From Many Delegates and As-
ssrt That the Strength of the Allies
10 Growing.
Denver, July Judge Gray's name
has not been withdrawn and under no
circumstances will 1t be withdrawn"
said Josiah Marvel, manager of the
Gray presidential forces This was
the answer to the persistent report
cried about the hotel corridors that
Judge Gray had telegraphed to those
in charge of his interests instructing
them explicitly not to permit his name
TO go before the convention. No such
message has been received and Judge
Gray has remained absolutely silent
as TO the presidency, neither further
ing nor retarding the work of his
friends in any way. The Gray men
were therefore feeling more confident
than ever, despite the apparent strong
tide for Bryan, as they claimed that
reports from incoming delegations
gave distinct reality TO their hopes.
Judge Gray's name will be present
ed to the convention by Irving T.
Handy" said Mr.. Marvel, "and sec
ondsd by Peter A. O'Boyls, who was
chairman of the Pennsylvania state
convention. We will also have sec
onds from two other states. AS to the
vice presidency talk of Judge Gray
we have absolutely nothing to say.
We are continually urged by the Bry
an managers TO permit Gray's name to
be considered for the second place"
continued Mr.. Marvel, but we insist
that we are not urging a man for two
places at the same time. The Bryan
people tell US that II we persist in try
ing for the first place we will lose the
second. We reply to this that we are
not running Gray for position but
for place The result will depend on
the good sense of the convention"
The Gray managers have been say
ing wait until the delegates arrive"
They now say that these arrivals are
increasing the Gray strength. They
point out that instructed delegations-
men committed to Bryan-are coming
TO them and saying that conditions
have so changed since the instructions
were given that If free they would
support Gray because of Mr. Bryan's
recent statements OF Gray's strength
as a conservative candidate. The Ten
nessee delegation Is given as specific
instance of this sentiment. Three of
the Tennessee delegates, Nessrs.
King, Miller and McMahon. are here
In advance of their colleagues. They
have visited the Gray headquarters
and have said that II Mr.. Bryan had
given his endorsement to Gray a
month ago instead of within the last
few days the Tennessee delegation
would be for Gray. The Gray man.
ayers are not asking any of the in
structed delegates to waver, but they
say sentiment among the instructed
men is that conditions have changed
and they wish they were free from In
struotions.

BRYAN MEN BOLT MEETING
Their Request That Action Be Post

Down and They Walk Out.

Denver, July 7.-Colonel James M.
Guffey of Pennsylvania was reelected
member of the Democratic national
committee from that state, although
several delegates left the caucus be-
fore 1t was done, declaring the pro-
ceedings irregular.
The delegation met at the Adams
hotel and Immediately after being
called to order a motion was made by
John P. Fow Of Philadelphia that an
adjournment be taken. The motion
was seconded by L. McQuiston Of But
Ter. 1t was urged in support of the
motion that the contests for various
seats in the convention had not yet
been settled and that the meeting was
not regular. The motion was declared
by the anti-Guffey men TO be carried,
although not more than a dozen dele
gates voted. Those favoring the ad-
journment, all of whom were opposed
to Gufey, then left the meeting amid
cries of towards" from the Guffey
men.
Colonel Guffey then entered the
room and the meeting was again called
to order, forty-seven delegates being
present, although four or five alter
mates were included in this total Will
tam ]. Banner of Pittsburg acted as
chairman. P. ]. O'Boyle of Wilkes
barre nominated Guffey for national
committeeman, the nomination being
seconded by John NJ. Garman of
Wilkesbarre. Mr.. Guffey was then
elected without opposition.
