IN LOVE WITH MEMPHIS,
BUT OH, YOU LINCOLN
William Jennings Bryan Renews
Declaration Of Allegiance to
His Home City.

William Jennings Bryan likes Memphis,

Il wish to correct an erroneous idea
that seems to have been spread in GER
tain quarters said Mr.. Bryan. 1T has
been suggested that / have become dis
gruntled over the treatment accorded mo

tire state Of Nebraska. There is no truth

Courtesy Appreciated.

Mr.. Bryan said he appreciated very
much the courtesy which the citizens Of
Memphis had done him in asking him to
come to live among them. The south,
he said, had given him its hearty sup
port in the past and he was very CRATE
full for it. But he had realized the am
bition of his life, he said, to live in a uni
versity town in close touch with the
growing young men and women of the
country.
The luncheon was given by the delega-
ton from Memphis, consisting of Judge
J. M. Greer. Walter Cain, r. B. Young
John M. luther, Dr. Edward D. Mitchell
and Duke C. Bowers There were thirty
five. at table, including the members Of
the Tennessee delegation in Congress
Representative Robertson of Arkansas,

Virginia Senator to Lead DEM
ocrats in Upper House.
OPPOSED BY PR0GRESSIVES
Want Man of More Radical Views
for Caucus Head.
HARD TO FIND OPPONENT
Early Conferences Fail to Disclose
Acceptable Man Willing to
Enter Contest.

Senator Thomas g. Martin of Virginia
will this afternoon be elected chairman
Of the democratic caucus Of the Senate,
which carries with it the minority leader
ship Of the upper house Of Congress.
That was the indication when the con-
ference began shortly before o'clock
this afternoon. Not only do the friends
OF the Virginia senator say that he will
get many more than q majority of the
votes, but those Yho have been most
active against his candidacy-the pro-
gressfves, as they have termed them
selves-are understood to concede Mr..
Martins election.
Oppose Unanimous Action.
There has been a movement on foot, be-
cause of the feeling that Mr.. Martin was
to be elected, to make his election unan-
tmous. But it is understood that the
progressive democrats are not willing to
adopt that course. When the caucus be-
gan, it was understood that there would
be. perhaps. dozen votes against him.
The progressive democrats held frequent
conferences this morning There was a
gathering Of about a dozen in the room
Of Senator Owen. in the Senate ,offce
building. early in the morning, and it is
understood the chief subject of the confer
ence was the picking of a candidate for
minority leader to run against Mr. Mar
tin When that gathering broke up it
was announced that no definite conclus-
sion had been reached. 1t was evident
however. that some plan was on foot. az
several of those in the conference rushed
off to consult with senators who had not
attended.
Other Names Considered.
After the consultations another con-
ference was held in Senator Owens
room. That was concluded only a short
time before the time for the caucus.
The plans of the progressives were not
made known after that conference
broke up. and they went almost i'm
mediately into the caucus.
Several senators, ii is understood, were
considered to make the race for the mi
nority leadership against Mr. Martin.
Senator Stone of Missouri, who has been
active against Senator Martin and the
Bailey faction, which is going to give its
support to Mr.. Martin, was urged to run,
but 1t is understood he declined. SEN
ator Culberson was also considered, as
were also Senators Newlands and Owen:
but each raised some objection to his
own candidacy.

Roosevelt Story Amuses.

The suggestion contained in q dispatch
from Ell Paso, Tex, that Col Theodore
Roosevelt might be chosen as a member
of q commission of three to straighten
out the tangle in Mexico. caused DR.. Go
mez, the confidential agent of the revo-
lutionists here, a good laugh this morn
ing. DR.. Gomez insisted that the alleged
plan for trtumvirate, one member to
be selected from the insurrectos, one
from the government party and a third
to be a distinguished outsider, was not
being considered by the insurrectos. nor
by any one else, SO far as he knew. He
added that certainly no outsider would
be called in to settle difficulties in Mex
leo, but that the Mexicans would ar
range their own affairs.
News contained in, letter which has
just reached DR.. Gomez from Mexico was
to the, effect that the instruction is
spreading rapidly to the south and west
fact that 1t was impossible to receive
Geographic news from many parts of
Mexico. showing the growth Of the IN
surrection.
The telegraph wires all lead to Mexico
City before they leave the country" said
DIR. Gomez, with an expressive gesture.
Diaz Obstacle to Peace.
DR.. Gomez declared that the Diaz party
was in better position to make terms with
the insurrectos today than it would be
at any time in the future. He let it ap-
pear that he did not believe terms could
be made with the insurrectos which con-
templated the retention Of Diaz as presi-
dent.
DIR. Gomez does not place any con-
fdence in the report that Japan was
seeking to force Mexico to allow her a
naval station on the west coast, and for
that reason the United States made a
military demonstration along the Mexi-
can border. This seems to have been his
day for denials, for he also secuted a
report that Yucatan had declared it's in
dependence and would not come again
under the Mexican flag, no matter if the
insurrectos came out victorious. He said
that the leader of the revolutionists in
Yucatan was absolutely In accord with
the Mexican insurrectos under Madero.
At the Mexican embassy the charge
d affaires said there was no news. He
discussed briefly the situation in Mexico,
however. and declared that the govern
ment was gradually stamping out the in
surrection. He said that he did not ex-
pect the new ambassador to this coun-
try, Senior Manuel de Zamacona e Inclan,
to reach here until Sunday or Monday,
as his ship. the CORONA, had been de-
layed.

United States customs guards report a
force Of 400 insurrectos at San Ignacio.
opposite Fort Hancock, east of Ell Paso.
The appearance Of this force, which, 1t is
believed, is awaiting reinforcements, has
revived fears of an attack on Juarez.
Dispatches from Culixean, the capital of
Sinaloa. declare two engagements have
taken place near Mojolo. and that a num-
Der of wounded federals have been
brought to Culixean in OK carts.
Couriers from Aqua Alto. near Mojolo,
brought reports of an engagement, in
which it was said forty insurrectos were
killed by the federal artillery.
Only Ito troops are left to garrison
Culixean, and Gov. Redo has been di-
rected to maintain a defensive attitude.

CONTROL OF PROCEDURE
DEMANDED BY SENATORS
Two Resolutions introduced Propos-
ing Changes in Rules to Ex-
pedite Public Business.

That efforts are to be made at this
session Of Congress to change the rules
of Senate procedure is indicated by two
resolutions which have already been sub.
mitted.
Senator Root yesterday afternoon pro.
posed that the Senate instruct the com.
mittee on rules to report some changes
ITO secure more effective control by the
Senate over Its procedure, especially over
it's procedure upon conference reports and
upon bills which have been passed by the
House and have been favorably reported
In the Senate"
Proposed by Senator Curtis.
This follows the action Of Senator Cur
tbs on the opening day. when he SUBJ
mitted a new rule which will make it
possible for two.thirds of the Senate to
put stop to the debate on a bill or
resolution and insure a vote upon it, and
thus prevent long-drawn-out filibusters.
This move for a change is the result of
the situation in the closing days of the
last session. when one flibuster after an
other tied up the business of the Senate
and resulted in the failure to act upon
several important measures that had
previously received the approval of the
House and which would probably have
been approved by the Senate had not a
dlfbuster prevented a vote.
