Convention at Lincoln, Neb. ex-
poets to Nominate Vice-presl-
dent and Adjourn by Night

Lincoln, Neb, July 21.-William
Jennings Bryan was nominated by
acclamation as the prohibition party S
presidential candidate at the national
convention here today. 1t came after
he telephoned friends he could not
accept.
The nomination came after a stam-
pede of delegates which was started
by a resolution of w. G. Calderwood
of Minnesota, rendering Bryan the
leadership and asking him to reply
promptly whether he would accept.
Debate on this brought out the fact
Bryan had replied to a telegram yes
terday refusing to accept.
Miss Marie Brehm of California,
who was elected permanent chairman
today, relinquished the chair, and
placed Bryan in nomination and
after a fifteen minute demonstration
the nomination was made by accla-
nation.
During the debate speakers charged
conferences between delegates and
Charles Bryan, brother of William j.
Bryan, was held in the last twenty
four hours with the apparent object
of preventing Bryan's nomination on
the ground he did not want to be
nominated. Bryan's telegram had
stated his brother would explain why
he could not accept.
Tonight delegates heard several
speakers assail republicans and dem
ocrats and tell of the wonderful sue
cess of the prohibition party"
Tomorrow delegates expect to elect
a new national committee. hear few
more speeches, and possibly nominate
vice presidential candidate, and ad
journ by night.
Meantime every effort is being made
to get in touch with Bryan to learn
his attitude toward the convention's S
action.
