On Top Of Political Move
Comes Report That Bryan

Mr.. BAYARD HAS NO
COMMENT ON SITUATION

Special TO THE EVENING JOURNAL.
DOVER, Del. Jan. ia political
surprise was sprung here yesterday
when It became known that, after a
two-days consultation with Democrat
ic leaders from all parts of Delaware,
an attempt will be made TO give the
endorsement of the Democratic State
Convention to Judge Alton b. Parker,
of New York, for the Presidency
The conference of some of the low
er county leaders decided to endorse
Parker, not only because it was felt
that the Governor Wilson boom is col
lapsing, but because Mr.. Parker lis

she was in the lead against him and
for Judge George Gray I'm 1904.
Many influential Democrats were

merous other Sussex, Kent and New

I'VE had all heard the hurrahs for
Wilson and the pandemonium for

arose and stood there, a charming

NEGRO POLITICAL CLUB
STIRS DEMOCRATIC LEADERS
State and City Chairman, With National Committee
men, Join in Repudiafing Effort TO Bring CoIored
Voters Into Their Party.

Aroused over the storm in the party
caused by the formation of the Colored
Democratic Club, Democratic leaders
today issued a statement repudiating
the club so far as any one officially
connected with the Democratic or
gani2ation is concerned, and. declar-
ing that they will discourage attempts
to connect the negro with the Demo-
cratic party.
The colored Democratic Club was
formed a few months ago, and a char
ter was obtained at Dover through a
well-known young Democrat of this
city, and the charter was offered for
recording in Recorder of Deeds
George office by a Democratic at
torney who is active in party affairs.
Interested in the Colored Democratic
Club at the time it was formed were
a Democratic saloonkeeper and some
Eleventh Ward Democrats who are
party workers. One object of the club,
IL was limited was to boost the candi-
dacy of at least one man at the Demo
cratic primaries this year. Palmer
Jacobs, colored, Of No S24 Orange
street, who is at the head of the club,
is friendly with certain Democrats
with whom he co-operated in forming
the organization
This is not the first time the Demo-
Gratis have gone after the colored vote,
however, as Charles Hood, a negro
with a wide acquaintance among his
race and with some influential white
Democrats as supporters, has been
i'm charge of the Democratic attempts
to win over" colored voters for sew
eral campaigns "Hoody.' as he is
called, is still regarded as a big fac
tor in the Democratic ranks and never
seems to lack a Democratic friend
when he needs one.
The statement issued today repudi-
ating the Coiored Democratic Club is
signed by Daniel p. DuRoss, chairman
OF the Democratic City Committee;
Chauncey p. Holcomb, chairman Of
the County Democratic Committee;
Thomas f Bayard, chairman of the
State Democratic Committee, and is
concurred in by Willard Salisbury,
National Committeeman from Della
ware, and by David 4. Marvel, Della
ware member of the National Demo-
cratic Congressional Committee. The
statement reads as follows:
I'VE are receiving inquiries regard
Ing the formation of a negro club in

name Of our party in connection with
its corporate title. We believe the
Democrats of this State desire our
party to maintain its integrity as a

MISS DOLLINCER
ON The STAND
German Woman TeStifieS in
the Bancroft Divorce Case
This Morning

Most Of the morning at the Bancroft
divorce trial was consumed in hearing
the testimony of medical experts for
the defense. DR. Barton Cook Hirst.
professor Of gynecology at the Univer-
slty Of Pennsylvania and his assistant.
Dr. Henry Nj. Norris, testified in sup
port OF the defense's contention as to
the child known as Max Heibler, Jr.
The medical experts were put
through rigid cross-examination, but
their testimony was mistaken
The doctors were followed by Miss
Emma Dollinger the young woman
brought from Germany by the defense.
When Miss Dollinger entered the court
house today the cameras were flashed
at her, but she hid her face behind "A
newspaper Miss Dollinger told of hav-
ing taken a ride with John Bancroft.
Jr., in Munich, in a taxicab.
Miss Dollinger was on the stand
when court took a recess. It is prob
able this afternoon that more medi-
cal testimony will be takea as among
the witnesses for the defense yet TO
be heard are Professor Wilmer Kru-
sen of Temple University. Philadel-
phia, DR.. Willard Springer. DR.. II.
W. Briggs and DR.. Harrison w. How
ell.
Il was reported this morning that
Mr.. Bancroft, Jr, may be put on the
stand for the defense.
At the opening of yesterday after
Moons session the court admitted in
evidence the sixty-seven letters writ
ten by Max Heibler to Mrs Bancroft.
Jr. The court admitted the letters to
the extent to show Mrs. Bancroft's
conduct, coupled with her other ac-
tons, but not as evidence bearing on
the child mentioned in the case.
Reading q, the Heibler letters then
began, but after some had been read
the court announced that the others
would be read in chambers. Some OF
the letters were addressed to my

white mans party, and not even In
directly attempt to use the negroes
of this State in their present ignorant
and debauched condition for political
purposes. No one i'm official connec-
ton with our party has authorized or
encouraged, or has lent aid or given
countenance either directly or indi-
rectly, to the formation of the al
legged negro Democratic Club.
When the Democrats controlled
the affairs of this state, they gener-
ously established public schools for
the negroes and the negro State Col
lege near Dover. Every encourage
ment was given the members Of that
race to become useful citizeis so far
as their abilities justified, always,
however, maintaining by absolute
separation of the races the purity and
integrity Of our race and our party.
The successful result of Republi-
can attempts to dominate this STATE
by the negro vote has been to de-
grade and debase the negro race as
a whole. until now il is safe to say
that only few, and they of course
the best educated and most reliable
of their people, even consider the pos
sibility of exercising their privilege
as voters with any regard for their
duties as citizens. Republic fights
within that party and the determi-
nation to carry the state at all haz-
ards have rendered the efforts initiat-
ed by Democrats when in control
here to benefit the negroes entirely
abortive, and we believe now il is al
most the universal opinion Of the
white people of this state, certainly
of those who compose our party, that
we should not degrade ourselves as
a party by attempting to form polit-
ical associations with these ignorant
and debauched people. We have by
express rule excluded them from par
ticipation in our party's primary cleo
tions, and we now desire to state
that we shall SO long as connected
with the Democratic Organization Of
this state, discourage, and so far as
possible prevent, attempts TO con-
meet negroes with our party II IS
useless TO appeal TO their intelli-
gence, and the Democrats of this
State viii not use the arguments
necessary TO obtain their votes by
which they are persuaded to maintain
their solid connection with the Re
publican organization, which, by man
ipulating their votes, retains its con-
troll Of the Republican party and un-
fortunately of our State"
