leaders expected without any doubt that
all the delegations pledged to the Speaker
would carry out their instructions on the
Presidential nomination, they were not
certain how the delegations would vote
on collateral issues. a Clark manager
said, tonight, that until a further stage
in the fight had been reached 1t would
be impossible to obtain a correct line
upon what these delegations with strong
Progressive tendencies would do in re-
gard to voting ON the temporary chair
manship. Senator-eleet James X. Varda-
man of Mississippi expressed the opinion
that peace would come out of the situa-
ton and that Mr.. Bryan was too rea-
sonable a man to permit such minor
matter as the temporary craftsmanship
to bring on serious fight. Mr.. Varda-
man said:
