 This report was brought to Wash. ington today by a Nebraskm who claims personal knowledge of She plans of Mir. Bryan. It caused some thing of furry among North Caro- lima politicians here, because they have no senatorship to hand over to him without the displacement Of a fayorite son or the state.

 Since his defeat last Spring for delegate at large to the Democratic National convention, Mr. Bryan has been considering the advisabilty oi quitting Nebraska for news fields He realized his popularity in Nebraska was killed when he left the Nebras lta delegates at the Baltimore con yention in 1872. The state had ! pledged for Champ Clark and Mir Bryan worked for Mir. Wilson.
 He has farms in three states North Carolina. Texas and Florida He has shown Q preference for th' North Carolina climate.

White, one of the best Known political writers of New England. the Boston Herald ] Republican), which is conducting an earnest campaign in behalf of Mir. Hughes, makes the admission that the present indications are that the Democrats will administer a smashing defeat to the Republicans at the September election"
 Summarizing the result of his in. vestigations, Mr. White, who is re- lerred to editorially in the Boston Herald as "our seasoned political correspondent" says: "The hand writing is plain upon the wall and it is spelling defeat
 Worried Over Governorship
 The writer describes the Demo. cratic organization in Maine as far superior to that of the Republicans, who. he asserts, lack a real leader. Continuing. he says During the past seventy-two hours spent in the State. big and little leaders have been contessmg that they are ser iously worried over the governor ship: that they are dubious about the election of Col Fred Hale and that the Hughes movement is not working as we'll as they hoped"
 Referring to the Democratic cam paign. he says: "The one unescapa- ble fact is that at time when the Democrats already have their cam. paign under way. with a general manager in charge who has already shot one bolt into the Republican campaign with some disastrous ef- feet the Republicans are still fuss. ing around trying to get started"
 In editorially commenting upon the ! disclosures made by Mr. White, the Herald says: Tt is difficult to ex- aggerate the importance of the out come in Maine.

SUSPICION IH
 UNITED STATES
 ABOUT ENGLAND
Manchester Guardian in Article Says that the Americans Are
 Wised up.
ALLIES LOSE SUPPORT

LONDON, Aug IS. Various in- nuences. particularly Englands pol icy toward Ireland, are arousing sus- piclon and resentment in the United States. says The Manchester Guard ian, in long editorial today. Those facts can not be ignored. it asserts. for the active cooperation Of the United States will be necessary ifI lasting peace is to be brought about by a league of the liberal pa ciflc powers of the world"
 The Guardian suggests the British orders in council. the censorship. the blacklist and it there were nothing else, to be considered we would be justified in corcluding that there was no reason to anticipate any serious change in Anglo-American relations"
 Referring to American expression of opinion in regard to the resolu- tions adopted at the economic confer ence of the Entente Allies at Paris. at which consideration was given to the various proposals, especially pro- yoked wide comment in America. The Guardian says there is no doubt that the suspicion here implied is in- iuriously affecting the Allied cause in America and these circumstances should not be overlooked in our calculations for the future. But above all other influences working against us in America is the memory of the Irish revolt"
 When the cabinet resisted the first Impulse toward clemency. The Guar dian continues. it forgot the immense and troublesome fact of lrlsh-Ameri- ca and for that lapse of statesman ship there would seem to be no hope Of speedy remedy lt adds
 "The reign of Sir John Maxwell at Dublin has made an end, perhaps for years 10 come of all hope of re- conclling that large element in the United States until. with the home rule act. we begin to redeem the past in Ireland. which has been by tradition and practice irreconcilable. One Of our greatest assets when the war broke out was the cordial neutrality of the American people made possible by the restraint and somewhat reluctant sympathy Of American Irish. That we sacrificed and the loss is likely to color the politics and behavior Of the United States toward us until the end of the war. or until such time as a complete change can be brought about in our Irish policy
 We cannot ignore this fact, much as we may regret it for the active cooperation Of the United States, is an essential condition to any such league of the liberal pacific powers of the world as it alone can give us an assurance of stable peace"
