possible that some member may again

That it was merely a miscalculation by

resulted in the gathering now dispensing,
was the statement of several conservative
members of the sect today. They affirm
that the end is near but that the time is
uncertain.

BAILEY AND BRYAN
DECLINE TO DEBATE

Ell PASO, Tex; Sept 25.-Despatches
from William ]. Bryan and U. s. Senator
Joseph w. Bailey tonight has practically
ended the efforts of FL Paso democrats
to arrange a joint debate between the
two as to their controversy in regard to
party pledges and the tariff.
Regarding the proposed joint debate
Mr.. Bryan wires from Vail, Ariz.:
st am endeavoring to secure a demo
cratic majority in the next congress and
propose a tentative platform which ]
ask the democratic candidates to accept
reject or amend. Believing that a de-
bate would tend to turn attention from
the issue to individuals, prefer separate
meetings and shall not consider a joint
meeting unless Senator Bailey makes q
personal request for it.
wv. J. BRYAN"
In a telegram Senator Bailey says a
joint debate is desirable but that he is
averse to forcing such a discussion on
Mr.. Bryan in view of the latteE's opin-
ion that it would affect the national
party.
