The panic in the capital amonE
the ignorant classes WAS indescrib-

Although only one day, Thursday is
set aside for the formal business of the
week, leaders of various magnitudes
already were arriving tonight prepared
for a week of conferences and gossip
ing over the outlook for the presiden-
tial campaign.
Choice of the convention city and
time is to be the only business directly
taken up by the national committee at
its meeting Thursday, but an effort
probably will be made to have it recon-
mend that the convention nominate a
President and vice president by ma
jority vote in place Of the two thirds
required in past years.
At the banquet that night several
aspirants for the presidential nom
fnation are to outline their policies.
Two former nominees. William Jen-
nings Bryan and Alton b. Parker.

dent Wilson il expected to send
