it RtGE SIX MDFORT) MATL TTUmjNTC, MEDFORT), ORTCOOtf, FRIDAY. HrNK 28. 1912. I. BRYAN H WAIL STREET OUT OF MM llAlriMOItH, Mil., Juno 2S. WIN Ham Jennings Ilrynn led Inst night tlio democratic convention Into a declaration ot progresslveness un heard of In political history. A reso lution Introduced by hi in wits panned by u vote of S89 to 190 declaring the convention opposed to thu nomination of nny cnndldnto under obligation to J, 1. Morgan, T. I- Uynn nnd August Ilolniont or nny other member of tho "prlvllege-seeklng class." Not nlono this, but Urynn wanted tho conven tion to go further nnd forco from tho convention nny delegate who repre sented tho Interest of theso men. Tho convention was thrown Into n furor by tho proposition nnd part of tho resolutions calling for tho with drawal of tho Ilyan nnd Belmont dele gates from Virginia and Xcw York, respectively, was resented as Invading tho sovereign rights of states. When the full import became known boos nnd catcalls, jeers mid hisses were mingled with hand-clapping, cheers nnd stamping of feet In the galleries and on the floor. Representative Flood of Virginia dramatically characterized tho pro posal as insolent and said it came from the "only man who desired to destroy the democratic party." For mer Governor McCorkle of West Vir ginia called It foolish. 'Bryan made the situation even more dramatic by asking Virginia and New York to re quest modification ot the resolution, and when they scorned the suggestion he took that course himself. From that moment tho sentiment changed and the early voting Indicated that Bryan retained his hold upon dem ocracy. Bryan's resolution in substance was: "As proof of our fidelity to the people, we hereby declare ourselves opposed to the nomination ot any candidate for president who is repre sentative ot or under any obligations to J. Pierpont Morgan, Thomas F. Ityan, August 'Belmont or any other members ot the privilege-hunting and favor-seeking class. Be It further resolved, we demand the withdrawal from this convention of tiny delegate or delegates constituting or repre senting the above named interests." On his own motion the laat para graph was stricken from the resolu tion, after he had made a speech in which he declared that it the dele gates from Virginia would on the roll call protest against tho withdrawal ot Uyan and If those ot New York would ask for tho withdrawal of Belmont, Brynn would then withdraw tho last part or his resolution. . After several delegates had spoken in defense of Uyan and of the right of Virginia nnd New York to conduct their own affairs, Lewis Nixon nnd others expressed their objection to any chnngo in tho resolution. Chair man Jnmos, however, supported Brynn when Bryan declared ho halt tho right to have tho motion modified to stilt his wishes. On demnud for a vote on tho reso lution it was put on tho roll call, but with tho paragraph beginning, "Bo It 'further resolved," eliminated. The question was put in tho form ot a motion to suspend the rules and pass the resolution. There was much con fusion nnd It required a second rend ing to make It plain. The roll call was attended with tho greatest con fusion and required two starts. As It was, it was almost Impossible to fol low the roll call. Virginia was called out of her turn and she voted 23 a ayes to one-half no. Then New York was called and the disorder was hushed for a mo ment as Charles F. Murphy shouted, "New York votes 90 ayes." Missouri. Clark's homo state, voted 34 ayes, 2 noes. Regarding the half vole from Vir ginia, it was stated it was tho vote of Robert Tunstall. Tunstall an nounced this himself when there were shouts that it was the vote of Ryan himself. Before the roll call finished nnd the result was announced, the Indiana delegates, Florida, Connecti cut and half a dozen other states shitted their votes to the "aye" col umn. Tho offlclnl announcement was: Ayes SS9, noes 19C, not voting 2, absent 1. RAREST 1 AND ART IRK E !W ED LIEUTENANT OF BURNS TELLS OF $500 BRIBE LOS ANGEIiES, Cal., June 2S.

Mounhan Is certainly a husky, weighing 190 pounds In hla fighting attire, and hits tv height of six feet and otic-half Inch. From his appear ance one would Judge that not an Idle pound of weight was stretched over his massive frame and that his blows would be more In tho nature of n fall of a trip-hammer. Cleverness, too, must be numbered among his at tainments, for ho was for eight months training partner of Champion Jack Johnson. '" The Inst bout that Monahan fig ured In was with Win Kramer of San Francisco, when ho won a popular tie. clslon over that Individual In a four round go at tho Dreamland rink.
