Not Openly for Wilson.

A determined effort was made to
day by the Wilson men TO get Bry'
an to come out openly for their can
didate. He refused and called at.
tention to the fact that he is in.
structed by the Nebraska democ'
racy to vote for the nomination OF
Speaker Champ Clark.
But that there is an understand
ing between the Wilson leaders and
the Nebraskan is certain. Many OF
the latter's closest friends are open
ly wearing Wilson buttons. and
there is always hearty welcome at
the Bryan rooms for the Wilson
boomers.

Talks With Leaders.

Bryan was in earnest conversa-
tion for some time today with Her
man Ridder of New York John T..
Lamb of Indiana, Senator Gore OF
Oklahoma. Senator Luke Lea OF
Tennessee. Senator Culberson OF
Texas and number of others be-
fore going to the meeting of the
subcommittee on resolutions.
Riddcr was reported to have tried
to 'feel the commoner out" on the
question OF candidates. but did not
receive much information.
With some other persons II was
reported that Bryan discussed the
plan OF certain progressives who
are instructed for Clark to change
their votes before the roll call is
announced on either the first or sec.
ond ballot. II New York's 30 votes
are cast for Clark.
These delegates. Il is understood.
sag such action by New York would
be an admission that the charges
that Clark dealt with Murphy on the
temporary craftsmanship in return
for promises of support was well
founded.
