Mr., BRYAN DECLINES TOIALK
He Avoids Saying Whether He Will
Run for Senator.
FEAR OF DEFEAT CoNFRONTs HIM
Recent Conferences Before He Leaves
for south America Full of DEM
OcrRtic ImpOrt-HOward
to Front.
tFrom a Sad correspondentO

LINCOLN, Nov. H.-(Special. )-Demo-
cratic leaders are demanding of Bryan that
he say whether he intends TO be candi-
date for the United States senate. They
have demanded Of him an answer-yes OF
no. The question was put to him yesterday
and Mr.. Bryan answered equlvocally. He
said he would not be a candidate unless
there was a demand for him to run. And
on the heels of that answer comes the talk
put in circulation by Bryan followers that
the Commoner mail is being flooded with
letters requesting that he be a candidate.
Gilbert NJ. Hitchcock through an agent,
has asked the question; w. II. Thompson
of Grand Island tried to find out through
Edgar Howard, and Governor Shallenberger,
through his friends has sought in vain for
the answer. To each and every one the
presidential candidate has given the same
answer: IF there is a demand for me to
make the race, l will not refuse to accept
the nomination"
Mr.. Bryan does not intend to enter the
race unless he is reasonably sure that he
can be elected. He fears defeat. To friends
he has indicated that defeat for the sena-
torship would be his everlasting undoing
from a political STANDPOINT But he is so
anxious for the office he will not say posi-
lively that he will not be candidate
So in order to be in h position to make
the race, II he decides to do so on his
own platform, he has been holding some
important conferences. Personally ne de-
sires to run on a platform committed to
county option, but he has thus far been
unable TO convince Governor Shallenberger
Mayor Dahlman or Edgar Howard that is
a wise move.
And while Mr. Bryan is trying to get the
party leaders to act harmoniously on the
liquor question. the party leaders are try
ing to get him to come to a decision on
the senatorial matter. Here is what the
would-be candidates are up against: Mr..
Hitchcock Is a provisional candidate, so
is w. II. Thompson and Governor Shall
lenberger has his following, Should either
announce his candidacy and start his cam
paign, he fears just before the time ex-
pires when a candidate may file, Mr.
Bryan is liable to hear that popular de-
I mand for his own candidacy and have
some OF his friends file his name. Then It
would be up TO Hitchcock ct al quietly to
fade away nursing a severely bruised dig
nifty So long as Mr.. Bryan remains nom
committal there viii be no candidate an
nounced in the democratic party.
That the democratic leaders are worked
up over the action Of the three times pres
idential candidate, is due to the fact that
Saturday Mr.. Bryan will leave for a tour
OF the South American republics and his
return to Nebraska is not looked for until
in the middle Of next summer, probably
next August.
Because OF this the eladers have de-
manded Of Mr.. Bryan that he come to a

Care Of Infants, Not Race Sui

NEW HAVEN, Nov. 13.-Speaking
before the conference on the Prevention
of Infant Mortality. DIR. Thomas OAR
lington, commissioner of health of New
York city, said:
"A declining birth rate threatens the
very stability of q nation and causes
the utmost concern among all who have
at heart the rosress and welfare of the
State. An abnormal or increasing in
fantile death rate tends to the, same
end, but thai which may Cause an even
greater anxiety is the propagation of
a race of weaklings, physically untitled
to zeal their share of the brunt of
the worlds service and economically a
burden to h community.
Governments must conserve the
health of the babies and children if they
are to assure the future virility of
their citizens, and money. time and eff
fort can be expended in no more
worthy purpose.
1T is not a question of race sui
eide. The birth rate in New York
city is steadily increasing. but OF wat

e. DODSON, of whom local play

lections IN character roles, will
come to the Newark Theatre next week
as star in a new comedy, THE House
Next Door, by J.. Hartley Manners.
Mr.. Dodson has been coming to this
city ever since the week in 1889 when
he played Cayley Drummle in 1.-THE
Second Mrs. T~anqueray" in the support
of the Kendals. The latest roles in
which he played here are Simonides, in

all-star "She Stops to Conquer cast,
and Pierre, in the all-star cast of THE

Mr.. Dodson and his managers,
Messrs, Conan & Harris, have selected
his new starring vehicle advisedly, with,
a view to giving the. artist a role in
which there Is opportunity to exemplify
every phase of the character magic
which caused Sir Henry Irving to dub

Richard Mansfield to observe in a pub

subject of interest today, namely, the adj
vantage of birth in contradistinction to
the power to seize opportunity to make
ones own name and position in the
world from the lowliest station in life.
The keynote of this comedy is based on
the respective regard for birth as pro-
mulgated by the two central figures in
the play-one an aristocrat by heredity,
the other a man of the people.
Unwillingly the aristocrat is forced to
appreciate that in this particular in
stance .birth'' that had no majesty in
its inception achieves a point of dis
tinction rarely reached by those with
the advantages of a great name behind
them. +
