SUSPECT UNDER ARREST.
Pressman Thought to Have Poisoned
DR.. Wilson.

Philadelphia, July 5.-Frederick Gies.
foreman of department in the press
rooms of the Curtis Publishing company
OF TINS city, was taken into custody to-
nlSht by the police. as a suspect in con-
nection with the murder of Dr. H. VIII
son. who died on June %. after drinking
a bottle of poisoned ale which had been
sent to him through the local express
OFFICE. A direct charge has not been pre-
ferred against Gies, who denies any
knowledge of the murder. but in the in
vestigation of the crime the police have
found circumstances in the life of Giles
and his family that tailed so closely
with the marked points and incidents in
the history of the Wilson murder that
they felt bound to act.
In seeking the murderer they looked
for a man who desired to avenge the
death Of his wife, who died while under
the treatment of DR.. Wilson. They
learned that Gies' wife died recently. and.
according to Edward Haas. a fellow en-
ploye of Gies, at whose home Mrs. Gies
died. she had been attended by DIR. Will

BOOM FOR GAYNoR ALSO FAST
sUBsIDINc.

Denver, July 5.-The question of the Sc
lection of "a candidate on the Democratic
ticket for the vice presidency will not
be determined until late after the nomina-
ton OF candidate for the presidency
This is the desire of Mr. Bryan and has
been communicated TO the Bryan lead
ers. Mr.. Bryan has taken the position
that until after the first position has
been filled can there be a really intelli-
gent selection for the second place. When
the nomination shall have been made and
there shall be an opportunity to consid-
er its effect upon the country at large,
then he thinks. and not until then. can
the vice presidency be intellisently con-
sidered- This desire on the part of Mr..
favor.
Plan Acceptable.
Most of the delegates agree that the
situation can be sized up to better ad-
vantage after the first selection has been
completed than before that event. and.
Furthermore, there has been so much talk
regarding the vice presidency that most
OF the delegates welcome an excuse for at
least temporarily dropping the subject
The present disposition therefore is not
only to postpone the selection of vice
presidential candidate until after the NOM
ination for the first place but to adjourn
the convention for a long enough time to
permit general exchange of views among
the leaders, and to give the presidential
nominee an opportunity to express his
preference.
Desires to Be Consulted.
Mr.. Bryan has not hesitated i'm letting
the fact be known that if the nominal
ton for the presidency goes to him he
will desire to be consulted as TO the choice
of running mate. He has repeatedly
said that he would prefer Judge Gray for
this position. but today for the first time
since the delegations began to gather
there has been falling off in the Gray
vice presidential boom. This is especial
ly noticeable among western delegates.
1t was generally credited to the positive
statement made yesterday by Judge
Gray. 1t is also known that some strong
ly antagonistic representations concerning
Judge Gray have been recently made to
Mr. Bryan by his recognized advisers. who
declare that these have not failed of eff
feet 1t is asserted that Mr.. Bryan's
present demand for uelay is due more
largely to these adverse representations
than to any other circumstance, and the
tone of confidence in Mr.. Gray's nominal
ton is not now so strong as it was in
the beginning
