Defeat of Isryan's Plank.

Grand Island, Neb., July27. William
Jennings Bryan, for IS years the leader
of the democratic party in Nebraska,
and a national figure in democratic
politics, was literally thrown out OF his
party here early today when the state
democratic convention refused to insert
Bryan's county option plank in the
party platform. The convention re-
jected the plank by the vote Of 19S for
to 647 against.
Bryan, for years the idol of his party,
was cursed and called a liar by oppOsi-
ton orators, and the delegates cheered
men who denounced the old leader.
Bryan was utterly crushed by the
action of his party. j expected it, "
was all he would say after the conven-
ton, which did not close until 80 this
morning
Bryan had been placed on the com
mittee OH resolutions. He brought
into the convention a minority report
for the adoption of county option
plank.
Bryan's resolution on the liquor
question was:
We favor county option as the best
method OF dealing with the liquor
question. "
On this resolution Bryan made the
speech that was expected TO swing the
convention to his favor. But when he
arose TO talk, he knew he was beaten.
He spoke for an hour and a half His
speech was a plea TO the democratic
party to save itself.
He dealt with the mistakes the party
had made and warned it not to make
the mistake Of avoiding the liquor
question.
At the close OF the address, Bryan
intimated that he was through with
directing the party. He stated that he
had put the question up to them. but
they had turned him down, and now
they could take the consequences.
Bryan today made the following
statements
Il expectci my defeat. Il is now
up to the democratic party to fight it
out. / have pointed out the dangers
OF not endorsing county option My

General strike Ordered.

Chicago, July ga general strike
OF all building trades workers was today
ordered by the building trades council.
The strike order is TO take effect inn
mediately on all buildings where Otis
Elevator Company has contracts, From
1000 to $4,000 men are affected.
Agents were Immediately sent out to
call off the affiliated men on fifteen
large buildings, including the new
northwestern depot.
The trouble is the outcome Of a iuris-
dictional fight between the Elevator
CONSTRUCTION men and macbinisis en-
ployed by the Otis concern which has
been brewing for about a year. An
ultimatum to the Otis company to with
draw their machinist, has been refused
and the result is the general strike
order.
AT the meeting OF business agents
the radical element prevailed over the
conservatives who did not care to stop
work, but as many OF the unions have
declared they would not strike, the
situation is involved
