tionaI Convention.

w. ]. Bryan issued a signed state
ment yesterday in which he arraigns
Senator Hitchcock in scathing
terms, asserting that the senator's
nomination for the presidency would
be equivalent to an announcement
that the democratic party has no de-
sire for success or hope of victory,
and that it intends to 60 into volun-
tary bankruptcy.
II he should be elected as delegate
at-large to the democratic conven-
ton and Nebraska should instruct
its delegation for Hitchcock, Mr..
Bryan announces that he will allow
an alternate to vote in his place, but
that he would represent the state on
other matters before the conven-
ton.
He insists that the democratic
party can not reconcile the presi-

widespread criticisms that he was
throwing mud at the navy, Ad-
miral Sims declared. He said h,
raised no question of the efficiency
OF the navy's participation in the
war, viewed in its entirety and with
out regard to the time element and
was unable TO adequately express
his admiration for the navys per-
feet performance in the war "inso-
far as the machinery that controlled
il permitted.
Declaring that he had raised ques-
tons about the efficiency of the navy
solely because he bad felt it his
duty to point out errors, the al
miral said he had been much en-
barrassed by implications of in
subordination and improperly" Z
He also vigorously attacked what
he characterized as efforts to con-
vict me of divided allegiance" and of
being "pro-British," saying that he
happened to be born in Canada be-
cause his mother went there on a

Is Not Questioned.
"Tf they didn't want man who
was pro-British and pro-French to
sit in the councils of the allies why
didn't they send pro-German with
trunk full of bombs" asked the
admiral.
Admiral Sims said he repeatedly
asked the department to relieve him
if he had lost its confidence.
When the admiral had concluded

questioning him. His state-
ment set forth in detail his criti-

this way | ean represent the de-
mocracy of the state on other ques-
tons without.haying any part in the
effort 10 put the party standard in
the hands OF Senator Hitchcock.
Some OF the points emphasized by
Mr.. Bryan in his public statement
follow:
Attacks Dry" Stand.
"Forty-hve states have ratified the
prohibition amendment to the con-
stitution; it would be an insult to
those states for the democrats to
put up a man who, like Senator
Hitchcock, voted against the sub
mission OF the national amend
ment after Nebraska had adopted
constitutional prohibition by $1,000
majority.
Senator Hitchcock voted against
the submission Of woman suffrage
after the state legislature had asked
him to vote for it, and his refusal
to follow the advice of the state
legislature on suffrage, came at a
time when his vote would have
passed the resolution for submission,
and given the democratic congress
the honor Of having opened the way
for that great reform. Senator
nomination would, there
fore, be an offense to all the women
voters.
1T will be remembered that Sem
ator Hitchcock was member OF
the senate committee which report
ed the currency bill. During the
fight on that bill he stood with the
Wall street fnanciers against the
enactment of what is now regarded
as the best currency law in the
world.
Would Mean Bankruptcy.
How could the party defend the
nomination of Senator Hitchcock,
who would be regarded as the one
democrat above all others, whose
nomination would be accepted as
evidence of determined purpose OH
the part of the party to nullify the
currency law by turning it over to
a president in sympathy with the
Wall street fnanciers.
1T will be remembered also that
Senator Hitchcock was one of the
small group of democrats who
joined the republicans in defeating
