Colonel Bryan's appeal follows
"In the interest of harmony, sug-

Dental nomination. ] TOOK II loI

"Eight members of the sub-com-
mittee. however, have, over the pro-
test of the remaining eight, agreed
upon not only a reacuonary pul
upon the one Democrat, who, among
those not candidates for the presiden-
tian nomination, is in the eyes OF the
public most conspicuously identiheo
with the reactionary element of the
party. | shall be pleased TO join you

MIR. Bryan declined to discuss MS

telegram spoke plainly for itselt'
BALTIMORE, June 21-Persistent
reports today that the leaders OF the
movement to secure the presldentiai
nomination for Speaker Clark hau ue-
termined to align themselves with the
so-called conservatives, 10 prlns
about the final selection Oh Juose A.
ton Il. Parker for temporary chalr
man were credited by several natohai
committeeman, though nothing OIL
cial in the way of confirmation was
obtainable. 1T,
National Committeeman Martin d.
Wade. of Iowa, who voted tor the So
lection of Senator-elect ollle James,
of Kentucky, yesterday, Tor tenn
norsrv chairman, said he knew noun
inc of any alignment that Woulo
bring the Clark and the Parker peo-
pie together in fight asaihs. WI.
BRYAN and the Wilson delegates Oh
the temporary craftsmanship
Wilson and Roosevelt.
The Wilson leaders said that the
clark leaders were angling to secure
the support of the New York delega-
tion on the nomination, but asserted
that not only would they fail in this.
but that they would not BRING al the
Clark delegates to oppose Mr.. Bryan
! on the temporary craftsmanship
No one could be found today among
! the various Democratic campaign
managers who was ready to treat
seriously the suggestion that any OF
the leading Democratic progressives
would be willing to accept second
place on a possible third ticket head
ed by Theodore Rooseeelt. The Will
son men smiled when they read a
Ch.cagoo dispatch to the effect that
the New Jersey Governor, on account
of his progressive tendencies, was
being considered by the Roosevelt
forces in this connection. One Of
the Wilson national campaign mana
gers remarked:
1.-THE governor will accept only one
nomination, and that is the Demo-
cratic candidacy for President He
has let it be known emphatieally that
he will not be a candidate for Vice
President on the Democratic ticket,
therefore it is absurd to suppose that
he would accept such nomination
under any other auspices"
Some of the Wilson delegates from
New Jersey today expressed dissat-
isfaction with the action of their
national committeeman, Robert S.
Hudspeth, in voting for Senator
Kern, of Indiana, in the division of
the committee on convention ar
rangements, yesterday, upon the
question of temporary craftsmanship
They believed that he should have
sided with the representatives of
North Carolina, Louisiana and Wyo-
ming in favor of Congressman Henry,
of Texas.
The New Jersey delegates are al
most all here, and today they held a
meeting. Those who professed to
understand Mr.. Hudspeth's reasons
declared he had strengthened the Will
son cause by a friendly act toward
the Indiana delegation for whose
votes Wilson, Clark and Harmon are
lying in wait In case the Hoosiers de-
eide after the first ballot or sooner
to quit Governor Marshall.
Mr.. Bryan said today that he would
start for Baltimore tomorrow morn
