NO INSTRUCTIONS
FOR n. Y. DELEGATES

NEW YORK, March, 20.-Yesterday
the Democratic State committee voted
almost unanimously, there being but
one voice raised IN protest, ia favor OF
an minstructed delegation TO the Den
Yer convention.
A resolution was passed Calling on the
Democratic electors Of the state TO send
delegates "unfettered by conditions and
unpledged and uuinstructed as 20 can
di1dtcs." The action Of the state COM
mittce means that the. New York Dem
ocracy intends to hold aloOf from Bry-
ans candidacy.
Chairman Connors said that the
Bryan sentiment in the State was dying
out. and hardly any o. the members
OF the state committee We're In favor
Of his nomination.
He also expressed the opinion that the
sentiment in New York state was over
whelmingly for Governor Johnson, Of
Minnesota.
The opinion seemed TO be general
among the members OF the committee
that the Democrats might carry the
state next fall. II Bryan IS not nomi-
mated.
Others said that they did not believe
that Bryan would have In the Denver
convention the necessary twO-thiTds vote
for the nomination.
