BY ARTHUR BRISBANE.

Ollie James, spresiding with voice
bigger than Parker's. orders aisles
cleared. doors closed, only late dele
gates admitted.
Now Bryan is up, raising his hand in
the old way. 1t is just S:21, and this
Democratic picnic or battle has begun.
Bryan has a resolution which he
thinks should be considered a once, be-
fore starting to nominate He wants
unanimous consent. and gets it, in spite
of one feeble NO"
Bryan's resolution resolves to send
greetings to the people of the United
States in this crisis, and assures the
people that the Democratic party of
jefferson and Jackson is still the peo-
pies friend, and pledges itself against
any candidate representing J. Pierpont
Morgan, Thomas F. Ryan, August Bel
mont-here the cheers stop Bryan He
goes on, demanding the withdrawal
from this convention of any delegates
representing the above named inter-
ests.
Invitation to Gust Money Kings.
Yells at this, for Bryan and Bel
mont sit on the floor as delegates, and
1t is an invitation to the convention to
put them out
1t is Bryan's announcement that he
exercises-or proposes to exercise here
the functions exercised by ST Peter
above objections and .howls and ap-
plause.
Will the convention vote to put out
the two men? Bryan asks for a deci-
sion on his resolution.
Everybody expected Bryan to do
something to arouse interest His in
vitation to r. F.. Ryan and August Bel
mont to get out is unkind, as Ryan in
an interview only just before said he
would cheerfully vote for Bryan if
nominated.
Governor Gichrist of Florida pro-
tested in the name of home rule against
man from Nebraska being allowed to
kick out gentleman Ct F. Ryan
from Virginia, the mother of states,
and another gentleman august Bel
nonD from New York
Bryan read his resolution over again.
This time some delegates hissed. per-
haps said to themselves: IF those
that are here to represent money are
put out what shall we do for two
thirds majority?" ?"
Ryan and Belmont Sit Calm.
r. r. Ryan and August Belmont sit
quite calm amid the disturbance of
which they are the center
Bryan goes on to say that his resolu-
: ;oIy 10, Vt, Il 1.-Two
but that times are extraordinary and
so unusual things are needed. He
wants Ryan and Belmont to get out in
order to help the candidate when he is
nominated He adds:
Every delegate here knows that an
effort is being made right now to buy
this convention and sell the candidate
to predatory wealth.
Shameful. inpertinent" BRYAN calls
it.
Then he names Morgan, Belmont
and Thomas F. Ryan as financial
pirates merciless in their demands on
the people
Bryan has evidently sprung upon
the convention right at the start the
idea upon which he expects to get the
nomination. He says that Belmont and
Ryan's presence is an insult to six
and half million Democrats. He says;
II for one am not willing that Thomas
F RYAN and August Belmont should
come here with their lawyers and their
secret attorneys.
"TH not tolerate that insult to my
party Give us a chance to vote agains'
these men"
Bryan Out For Fight.
Bryan is out for fight, and he is
showing some of the crowd how little
they know about politics compared
with him.
He dares New York to take poll on
the question. and says.
u don't mean vote by Nj. Murphy
but vote of delegates"
He says if Virginia and New York
will vote, each delegate by his name, to
keep in Ryan and Belmont he (Bryan)
will withdraw that part of his resolu-
tion asking that Ryan and Belmont be
put out But he won't withdraw his
resolution that the convention pledge
Itself TO keep tree from Morgan, Ryan
and Belmont influence.
Wild yells and disorder, Bryan max

Hall Flood member of congress, has
his arms around Bryan and is whisper

Flood is from Virginia
Now Hall Flood has the floor, and
he begins "In the name of the sover-
eign state Of Virginia / accept the in
solent proposition made by the only
man in this convention"
Wild yells drown his voice. He is
saying that Virginia will take his chal-
lenge and call the roll for Ryan Now
comes a demonstration in the New
York and Virginia delegation for Ryan
who is standing in the middle of the
aisle
A Chance For Ryan.
If he had the voice and the skill to
say what is in him. we should prob
ably hear some adjectives that would
