Progressive will be satisfactory to
me. In the first place, | urged the

rary chairman"
do you regard Wilson and Clark
as the two leading candidates?'
'Do you know of anybody else?" he
answered. Eyes, | meant ilWson and
Clark and If they had agreed upon Il
temporary chairman there would have
been no objection whatever
Il want to emphasize one fact right
here, Mr. Bryan continued and is
that / am the original harmony man in
this whole crowd / did not ask any
thing fer myself: did not ask any
thing for any particular candidate; L
do not know of any better way of be-
ginning the convention tremendously
tina to have the two leading candidates
agree upon II temporary chairman.
IF there is any lack of harmony 1
do not see why there should Nbe any
excitement about the matter. Eight
members of the committee have seen
fit to ignore the opinions of the other
eight and to make the recommends
ton. 1t takes the full committee to
decide whether to approve or disap-
prove the recommendation of the sub
committee and it is for the convention
to decide whether it will accept or re-
ject the recommendation. 1t is not an
unprecedented thing for a committees
recommendation to be reversed 1t
was done in the Chicago convention
in 1885,"
VIII there be any split in the Dem
ocratic party?"
Il have no knowledge on that sub
ject."
We'll. can you imagine a progressive
program being repudiated here as in Chi
cago?"
NO" he replied. for l cannot mag
inc so large Wall Street element in our
party as they had in Chicago
"They say that you are going to bolt,
if you are defeated in this matter, as
Roosevelt did in Chicago"
II am not responsible for what they
are saying. My friends are not saying
that"
Il think the outcome of the Chicago
convention continued Mr. BRYAN,
makes it even more imperative that
we should in this convention write pro-
gressive platform and nominate a pro-
gressive ticket.
There were four names considered by
the committee for the temporary chair
manship. Would any of these have been
acceptable to you?''
Yes Any progressive would be per-
fectly acceptable answered Mr.. Bryan.

THE PLATFORM.
Said That Democrats Will Make Big
Fight on the Tariff.

Baltimore, June 23.-Tariff will he
the paramount plank in the platform
which the Democratic National con-
vention will adopt. There were in
formal conferences among the lead
ers today and while the platform was
not whipped into shape for full con-
sideration, a number of ideas were
considered. The following is sum-
mary of the main features which the
Progressives will suggest and which
the Conservative leaders may accept.
Reaffirmation of the declaration that
the tariff should be gradually reduced
to a revenue basis, along the lines of
the Denver platform. Material reduc-
tions in the duties on the neeessaries
of life, especially upon such articles
competing with American manufacture
ers as are sold abroad more cheaply
than at home and gradual reductions
in such other schedules as may be
necessary to restore the tariff TO a
revenue basis.
A declaration emphatieally opposing
the central bank provision of the so
called Aldrich national monetary COM
mission plan but not opposing certain
features of that plan
Declaring that Congress should enact
such supplementary or amendatory leg
islation as will make the so-called Sher-
man antitrust laws more effective. In
sistence upon the vigorous enforcement
of the law upon the big and small Of
fender alike.
Endorsement of the action of the Ma
tional House of Representatives in enter
ing upon a thorough investigation of the
so-called money trust and in passing the
Pujo bill to give greater visitorial powers
over national banks. Insistence upon
the enactment of the Pujo bill at this
session of Congress.
Endorsement of the action of Congress
in passing a joint resolution providing
for the direct election of United States
senators by the people.
Endorsement of the anti-injunction bill
passed by the House of Representatives
Declaration for legislation to provide
for jury trial in all cases where there IS

newspaper men, tonight, shortly after

clear that he regarded the fight for the

light on what plans he had made to
oppose the selection for temporary
chairman of Judge Parker whom he
charged with being a reactionary He

speech would be an offence to the

GRIEF OF NUREz

Couldn't Produce Evidence in the
 Shape of a Liar

Ffrmin Nunez, charged with try ing to kill his wife with a knife was before Justice JohnstOne for pre- liminary examination at the close of which he was held to the grand iurv. Nunez tried to awaken sympathy for himself by weeping, whereby he caused much merriment in the court room. Notwithstanding a vigoruos rubbing of his eyes with a hand kerchief and a shaking of the shoul- ders as if moved by grief, he was un- able to exude a tear. His lachry- mai glands simply wouldn't work.
 Nunez denounced all who testi- fled, as liars. He said that he had at no time a knife in his possession though one which had been taken from him was an exhibit in the case. Nunez was prevented from carrying out his design against his wife by Juan Leyvas, with whom interference with wife murderers and would be wife murderers has become some thing of a habit.
 Leyvas is the man who captured Jose Rodriguez after he had killed his wife a couple of years ago In this case, attracted by the screams of Nunez's wife he ran to her rescue and overtaking her husband he pin toned his arms and extracted an open knife from his pocket where Nunez put it when he saw the approach of Leyvas.

 Some years ago Nunez murdered a Mexican at Globe, for which he spent seven years in the penitentiary.
