CONTESTS
IN SHORT ORDER
Democratic National Committee Has
Little Trouble in Deciding Who
Are Entitled to Seats.

Denver-In record time on Monday
the Democratic national committee
disposed OF all contests before IL, with
the exception of those of two states
Pennsylvania and Idaho-which went
over with Tuesday. The general re-
suit was TO sustain the delegates who
came here with credentials from their
state and district conventions. A total
of rs seats were involved in the con
tests from Illinois, New York, Penn
sylyania, Idaho, Ohio and the District
of Columbia. The work was done by
six subcommittee four of which re-
ported Monday to the full body.
Roger Sullivan OF Chicago was an
easy winner Of the twenty contested
seats from Cook county, which were
disputed by Robert e. Burke and his
associates.
Senator Fred r. Dubois was sus

NO TROUBLE OVER
THE PLATFORM
Only Difficult Plank to Prepare Re-
lates to Use of Injunction in
Industrial Disputes.

Denver.-Evidences are multiplying
that practically the only difficult plank
to prepare for the Democratic plat
form will be that relating to the use
Of injunctions in industrial disputes.
Mr.. Bryan has let it be known through
a number of reliable sources that his
position on this plank is not rigid.
Perhaps the most important confer
ence with reference to the injunction
plank was that held at Fairview, Mr..
Bryan's home, during the dinner given
by the Nebraskan to number OF
prominent Democrats on July 4. At
this dinner Mr.. Bryan stated clearly
that he realized that there might arise
situations where the issuance of an
Injunction without notice to those en-
Joined would be the only remedy
against loss of life or irreparable dam
age to property. To meet such cases,
Mr.. Bryan further indicated that il
