REVOLT SPRINGS TO
ARMS In INDIANA
(By United Press Leased Wfre)

INDIANAPOLIS, Ind, April %
With a jerk of revolt, all slack in
the fractional lines within the dem
ocratic party in Indiana was taken
up today, and even counties are di-
vided over the attitude of Thomas
Taggart on the United State SEN
atorship.
1t is admitted in all quarters that
Taggart's positive and defiant an
nouncement of his candidacy gave
Governor Marshall additional sup
porters throughout the state with
the possible exception of Marion
county.
VIM. J. Bryan's telegram to Gov
ernor Marshall made public today
In which Bryan staunchly upholds
the Marshall plan of endorsing
candidate in convention, decided
the minds of not a few democratic
voters who heretofore have re-
manned neutral on the question of
naming an opponent for the repub-
lican nominee.
That these two incidents, thrust
into the situation by Bryan and
the French Lick man, have worked
greatly to the benefit of Governor
Marshall is generally agreed by
Marshall's admirers and others eX-
pected to join the executives fol
lowing.

pavement. The rear wheel
passed over the baby, which
fortunately escaped serious in
