party or to find out how far he intends
to go.
The situation precipitated by the differ
ence of opinion between Mr.. Bryan and
the President was discussed at the Cabi-
net meeting this morning, and most of the
members were said to have taken rather
gloomy view Of the situation Franklin
K. Lane, Secretary of the Interior was
understood to have suggested that II was
better to have the storm early so as to
permit it TO clear before the convention.
The wish was said to have been ex-
pressed that some way existed for obtain
ing an immediate expression OF the posi-
ton OF the people on the League OF
Nations. It was said that this was all
that was responsible for published re-
port that the President would ask for an
immediate referendum on the question.
Great resentment against Mr.. Bryan was
expressed by many Democratic commit
teemen. AS they view IL, he has permitted
himself to be influenced by his individual
views on domestic problems and by his
antagonism toward capital to put the
issue he seems to raise against ''monopo-

lies ahead of the League OF Nations. Mr.
Bryan In his speeches took issue with
senator Atlec Pomerene, of Ohio, who
advocated the return OF the railroads tc
private control, and went so far as &c
suggest the naturalization of all indus
tries In which a monopoly might be OBJ
tained. This attitude it was said. might
bring him considerable support from or
ganized labor, particularly among railroad
employees. as he is understood to favor the
| Plumb plan
Many Democrats present al the two din
ners also resented Mr.. Bryan's references
TO prohibition and his suggestion of ar
appeal from Philip drunk to PhilI
sober" on this question. Many of the
diners considered this remark of Mr.
Bryan insulting and bearing upon wha'
he considered their condition. AS mat
ter of fact. no liquor was served at either
dinner.
One effect of Mr.. Bryan's advocacy OF
prohibition was to stifle in its infancy ar
attempt to write Tight wines and beer
plank in the Democratic national platform
Several members of the committee brought
such suggestion and urged the result il
the last New Jersey State election and
other local elections as evidence that there
was reaction against prohibition which
might make such plank advisable. After
such plank was possible
The selection of San Francisco as the
convention city revived some talk of Her
bert Hoover as possible nominee, as Mr.
Hoover is resident of California 1t was
reported that there was considerable senti-
ment, based upon belief that he would be
a winning candidate. on the Pacific coast
1t was learned, however that all sugges-
tion OF Mr. Hoover as possible candidate
had come from sources outside the Demo
cratic party. 1t was stated by those in a
position to know that neither Mr.. Hoover
nor any of his friends had approached
any one in authority In the national party
organization, or in the Democratic organi-
zation Of his own State, with a suggestion
that he might be a candidate.
Most Of the national committee, although
opposed to Mr.. Bryan, were reluctant to
comment upon his break with the Presi-
dent for fear of making the situation
worse from their viewpoint, A few pro-
fessed to feel that the party would benefit
by the stimulus injected by this difference
of opinion between two strong leaders.
Others said that the party would benefit
greatly by the publicity received by the
two dinners.
Colonel r. S. Amidon OF Kansas. vice
chairman of the Democratic National
Committee, stated that ninety-nine per
cent Of its members were with the Presi-
dent "It doesn't hurt the Democrats to
fight" he said. Bryan used to be strong
in the West, but he is not now. He is
about to start on lecture tour, and likes
publicity. Have you ever noticed that be-
fore the appearance Of a prima donna in a
new opera she is likely to have her dia-
monds stolen or start an action for di-
vorce?"

he did not care to discuss the matter until
he had returned to Nebraska.
Mr.. Bryan left here at noon for Chicago
with the knowledge that he had thrown a
bomb into the centre of the Democratic
national organization. Mr.. Bryan is on
his way to Lincoln, Neb, where he will
address the State Constitutional Con-
vention and will make speeches al poiti-
cal dinners at Chicago. Des Moines and
Omaha. Mr. Bryan will return to WASH
ington by January 15 to assist in celebrat-
ing the beginning of prohibition under the
federal constitutional amendment.
Bryan won't Say More.
Mr.. Bryan stated that he had nothing
to add to his utterances at the two din
ners, and declared he believed he had said
enough to make clear his position. He

in Florida with Mrs. Bryan, who is in III
