wants the Democratic nomination They prefer any candidate so far mentioned to him, and they say that if they can make Parker the temper ary chairman in the face of the bit ter fight that Bryan is expected to make against him, that they will have taken Bryan's measure and can de feat him even though he should come out openly for the nomination. Bryan'S friends have been in fre- quent communication with him al Chicago. urging him to hurry to Bal timore and take personal charge of the progressive forces, but it is be- Heved he will not come until the Re publican convention has adjourned unless, of course, it should go over until next week. in which event he is expected to come to Baltimore Sum- day or Monday.
 The ant1-Bryan men declare they and believe they will elect Parker in spite of Bryan. The answer of the Bryan men is the anti-Bryan leaders can't deliver their delegations solidly for any proposition for which Bryan takes positive stand.
 Senator Newlands, of Nevada, Sen ator Pomerene of Ohio, and other plat form builders are on the ground. Newlands will urge a plank in dis franchisfng all the negroes of the United States and providing for their colonization in Africa.
 Pomerene wants the Ohio plan of loandng government funds to the high est qualified bidder adopted by the federal government.
 The claims of managers for their candidates are as follows: For Clark, 425: for Wilson, 300 fo;r Harmon, 55; for Underwood, 90; for Marshall, 30; for Gaynor, 90.
 The Gaynor people do not know pos itively whether Charles Murphy, the Tammany leader, will give New York's 90 votes to Gaynor, but they continue to claim them.
 The movement to break the two- thirds rule and to make it possible for the convention to nominate by ma- jority of the 1,094 delegates appears to have been dropped, as far as this con- vention would be affected, although an effort may be made to adopt the majority rule and to have it apply for the first time at the convention in 1916.
 The unit rule will be attacked, par ticularly by the 19 Wilson delegates who were elected by direct primaries in Ohio. The Ohio delegates, in State convention, by adopting the unit rule, bound the 19 Wilson men to vote fol Governor Harmon. The contention will be made that State convention had no legal authority to impose the unit rule when the delegates were elected by direct primary. Mayor Newton D. Baker, of Cleveland, will lead the fight of the Ohio Wilson men.

BRYAN DEMANDS THAT
 CANDIDATES OPPOSE PARKER AS REACTIONARY

Baltimore, June 2l-Chief interests of Democrats here appeared to center today in the fight that is imminent between William J.. Bryan and the conservative leaders over the selection of Judge Alton B. Parker as tempor- ary chairman of the convention.
 E! That Bryan will oppose Parker's s election to the last is declared by his close friends who are directing the progressive forces until the Commoner himself arrives from Chicago.
 Bryan Is said to be depending for support on the followings of both The Harmon and Underwood delegates are entirely satisfied so will not help Bryan to keep him out of the honor.
 Rumors were flying fast today that the Clark people are dickering with the conservatives. especially Murphy and that the deal involves throwing the Clark strength to Parker in return for which the votes of the New York and Indiana delegates, besides some uninstructed delegates, would be given Clark OF the first ballot.
 Bryan men prefer to disregard these rumors and point out that if Clark attempts such a deal he would lose more than he would gain because he would lose Bryan's friendship and good will.
 The Bryan men will carry the fight against Parker to the full national committee, next Monday. They are already charging that Parker's selec- tion is not valid because he received only eight of the 16 votes in the com mittee on arrangement which made the selection, whereas, they claim, he needed a majority.
 Bryan men are in the minority on the national committee and therefore, 1t is expected the full committee will ratify Parker's selection. The fight will then be taken to the floor of the convention. Bryan himself is expect ed to make the principal speech against Parker
 Campaign managers for Clark, Will son, Harmon. Underwood, Gaynor and Marshall are already on the ground making claims. So far no i'll feeling has cropped out. None of the man agers claims or expects his man to be named on the first ballots. Clark's managers who make the biggest claims, say he will have at least 425 votes on the first ballot but that is 300 less than the necessary two-thirds needed to nominate.
 Among the conservative leaders, 1t is no secret that the matter of picking Judge Parker for temporary chairman is to be used to bring to a direct is- sue Bryan's influence in the conven- tion. ,.se,.

ical subjects, and that Miss Anna Fa1k, a High School junior, had been awarded the first prize among 1SO scholars in the State who competed. Prof. Kelsey took occasion to compli- ment Miss Talk on her work in the High School where she was excused from taking examinations this term on account of her high standing in all her studies. He presented her with mammoth bouquet of roses sent by an admiring friend.
 Dr. w. B. Coggswell, chairman of the Town School Committee, presented the diplomas to the graduates. He was the only member of the commit tee on the platform. Rev. Dr. E. N. Packard of the Congregational church delivered the invocation. and Rev. B. c. Carpenter of the Methodist church pronounced the benediction. Mrs. E. IF. Judson at the organ accompanied the High School chorus in the three selections rendered
 The graduates were Nina May Auf- ford, Catherine Carpenter, Olive Louise C1app, Agnes Lucia Dosch, Margaret Irma Dosch. Frances Mildred George. Margery Parker Haven, Annie Louise Kiernan, Genevieye Augustine Niver, Marjorie Moore Sammis, John Stoll, IT.
 The ushers of the evening were George Powell, Webster Conine, FL lncI SdtSlll, MduIlC0 .bak0E, 66Sll Merrill, Allen McGregor and Vincent Seston, all students of the High School.
 Artistic, simplicity was the most prominent feature of the wedding at Christ church, yesterday afternoon, when Vernon Starr Morehouse and Miss Bessie Fairchild Houghton were united in the bonds of holy wedlock by Rev. N Ellsworth Cornwall. The church was filled with relatives and friends of the contracting young peo- ple.J The bride entered on the arm of the groom without other attendants She wore simple tailor made travel ing suit of dark blue whipcord and a white Leghorn hat. At her belt she wore a corsage bouquet of orchids and lilies of the valley. The costume of the groom-well, grooms are only incidental to wedding, a. sort of neces- sary adjunct to fill out the program. Tn this instance however, the groom cut more of a figure than usual, for there were no bridesmaids or beauti- full girls in handsome costumes to dis tract the attention of the large con- gregation. All brides are beautiful, but this one was transscendently lovely in her simple costume. The ceremony was much too short to suit the people

 Stratford. June a1lThe commence .ment exercises of the Stratford High School were attended by large audi ence, last night, which crowded the Congregational church. Although these affairs are not regarded as nee essary by educators of the present day, they seem to have lost none of their attraction for the people of Stratford. There were eleven grad uates this year, ten of whom were girls-a '4ten to one" shot, as Prof. Shear, the speaker of the evening. re- marked in his address
 Miss Margery Haven and Miss Fran ces George were the only graduates heard from the platform last night. Miss Haven,s subject. "Child Labor" was one which appealed to the female heart and her address might do some good If distributed among employers and legislators. The different phases of the subject were presented in a way that brought conviction, and many new points were brought out. Miss George dealt with Stratford his- torically and she found many things of interest in this. already over-work- ed subject. Her. oration impressed her hearers with the fact that there is much historical matter concerning the town which has never been print ed, and that there is need of a histor- ian to preserve the stories of other days for future generations.
 Prof. S. R. Shear, superintendent of the schools of Poughkeepsie, N. r., addressed the class and the audience in happy vein. He told stories which actually created laugh on this sacred occasion. Prof. Shear was the teacher of Prof. Kelsey, superinten- dent of the Stratford schools, in other days, but he refrained from embar- rassing that official by telling any tales of the past
 Prof w. B. Kelsey, superintendent of the local schools, in making his an- nouncements, took occasion to mention the fact that four members of the High School had won prizes offered by the Colonial Dames for essays on histor-
