Delegates Wearied.

A weary, bedragsled. peevish agsrega-
tion OF delegates and alternates TO the
Democratic national convention drifted
into the convention hall tonight with a
long. dreary night session in prospect.
They confronted the same monotonous
grind OF ballotlng that had continued
from last Friday morning
Almost full week of controversy be-
tween rival factions had sorely tried the
patience and tempers OF the delegates and
the crowd which gathered tonight was
an irritable and excitable one. The
tensty Of the situation had shown Itself
in n semi-riot on the floor during the
afternoon, when William Jennings Bryan
found himself In the midst of half a score
OF fist fights. Police were warned to eN-
ert extraordinary vigilance in the future.
The slow. vacillating rise and fall of the
vote of fayorite candidates throughout
the day had increased the steadily grow
Ing bitterness OF the last week and to-
night match Of offense, touched to the
extreme would have set the entire con-
yentiOn ahlaZe.

Awaiting a Break.

It was on this situation that many Of
the leaders based hope of a final vote
and a nomination before the night was
over, They argued that the weary dele
gates tried by week of work would
break from the hard and fast lines they
have been holding and throw enough
votes to one OF the candidates to end the
agony of suspense. Others contended that
;he situation made impossible an agree
ment on any one of the candidates now
before the convention, They pointed to
today's physical clash between the Clark
and Wilson forces as evidence that
the feeling between the two was so BIT
ter that neither would allow enough votes
10 go to the other to nominate.
The Wilson forces, however, encoura ged
by their steady gain through the day,
were optimistic They asserted that in
time they would secure a majority OF
the convention and then the delegates,
ready TO do almost anything to end the
struggle, would flock to the Wilson stan
dard.

was frequently interrupted. He agreed
that the Kansas delegation could not shift
TO Wilson until two-thirds OF the delega-
ton voted for Wilson, He asserted that
thirteen was not two thirds and contended
that twenty votes should go to Clark

his argument was punctuated by jeers.

neared the conclusion,

Wilson leader answered Bell He said
that with only nineteen Kansas delegates

Bryan's Estimate of Clark.

years. He is absolutely incorruptible and
his life Is above reproach. Never in all
these years have 1 known him to be upon

was the side that represented the peo-
pie"
There was a cheer as the Missourians
displayed the banner above the delega-
tion. IT continued for several minutes
Take IT over TO Nebraska and show
TO Bryan" shouted some one.
No sooner was this said than the Mis-
sourians acted on the suggestion Then
came trouble.
Bryan arose and faced his tormentors
for some moments. Several policemen
hurried TO his side and with them as an
escort the Nebraskan fairly fought his
way to the stage,

into the crowd
Anything against K, Bryan?" shouted
a Missouri delegate, shaking his fist at
the smiling NebraskaD. From the aisle
the policemen assisted the Nebraskan to
the platform, Half a dozen hand to- hand
fights followed as the Clark men tried
to carry their banner up on the plat
form behind BRYAN.
