Credentials Committee Seats Bryan
Men From Pennsylvania.
MINORITY REPORT PREPARED
Representatives of Fourteen States
Vote Against Action Taken and Will
Support Fight on the Floor of the
{ Convention.

4 Support Fight on the Floor of the
{ Convention.
Denver, July 9.-The committee on
credentials of the national Democratic
convention concluded it's labors after
1t had been in continuous session for
twenty-nine hours.
No attempt was made to restrict the
time for the presentation of evidence
in the various contests, the proceed
ings in which we're all conducted with
open doors.
!, The Idaho, Ohio and Pennsylvania
|cases provoked much bitterness from
the opposing sides.
Colonel James M Guffey of Pitts.
burg went down to defeat before the
committee in all his contested cases,
the contestants all being seated by a
vote of 27 to Is.
In the Idaho case the Mormon fac
tion was put to rout, the committee
deciding in favor of the Dubois fac
tion, who were the seated delegates
by vote of 26 to 20.
The Nineteenth Ohio district again
was given to Tom Johnson of Cleve-
land, who appeared in the committee
room and made strong plea that the
action of the national committee be
Sustained. The Ninth, or antiJ ohnson
district delegates, were allowed to re-
tain their seats.
The committee made short work OF
the New York, Illinois and District of
Columbia contests, unanimously sus'
tanning the action of the national com
mittee in each case.
Oklahoma Given Eighteen Votes.
The fight of Oklahoma for eighteen
delegates instead of fourteen resulted
in a victory for the new state. The
claim of Oklahoma was based on the
allegation that there had been an in
correct apportionment of the districts
and the committee accepted that view.
The action of the committee in the
Pennsylvania contests gives the Bryan
men control of the delegation, thus
fdisplacing Colonel Guffey, for ten
years leader of the Pennsylvania De-
mocracy. The fight will now be car
ried to the floor of the convention.
The vote of the committee on Gre
dentials on the Pennsylvania contest
showed fourteen states, including New
York, voting with Colonel Guffey's
forces. AS the latter are anti-Bryan
the attitude of these fourteen states
was regarded as showing an undercur-
rent of sentiment. The fourteen states
voting with the Guffey forces were:
New York, New Jersey, Tennessee,
Texas, Virginia, West Virginia, Della
ware, Illinois, Ohio, Minnesota, Geor-
gia, Louisiana, Kentucky and Mary.
land.
A minority report from the creden-
tials committee is being prepared by
Attorney General Strauss Of Maryland
and 1t Is expected that the representa-
tives of the fourteen states who voted
with Guffey will sign the minority re-
port.
