Coming: from the tense and electric atmosphere of Chicago, Baltimore appears as calm and polite as a Summer day at Chautauqua. At Chicago were displayed every where the bitter word and the shaking fist. Here the old-fashioned art of buttonholing and wire-pulling is being carried on In regulation style. It is the National conventions our fathers Instituted, and their sons hoped to per petuate. Pictures of candidates, mot toes of delegates, streamers, flags, bunting. Good feeling is visible everywhere. At Chicago there was nothing of the kind, only the stir and movement of excited crowds, and the noisy conten tions of the warring factions. ' Lobbies Reflect Harmony. It is. good to taste the lobby's smoke and smell the lobby's breath without the feeling that whatever happens the country will be saved strictly accord ing to the rules. I came to Baltimore on the same train with Bryan, but not from design, so far as I am concerned. Nothing much happened on the trip, but at the station here a mighty throng had as sembled to greet Bryan. It was a re ception hardly lo be compared with the descent of Colonel Roosevelt on Chi cago, eight days ago. and the sequel may be different, quite different The incident was aignlflcsnt of the renewed interest In Bryan. None of the candi dates for President found at the rail road station here a waiting multitude, none other was hailed as the next President. The crowd believes that Bryan will be nominated and that this time he will win. That is .what the spontaneous out burst at the railroad depot meant. Bryaa Aarames Dictatorship. Bryan may not have come as a con queror, but he came as the only au thentic dictator of the Democracy. He coolly accepts his position as the great Democratic ' voice and acts upon it. This time he Issues his flat that Park er shall not be temporary chairman of the convention, and there is a hasty scurrying around among the delegates to assure Mr. Bryan that naming a chairman displeasing to him is far, far from anybody's mind. The Eastern Democratic papers re buke Bryan severely for precipitating a row at the beginning and say that harmony is above all thlngato be dft slred now. and the way to get it is for Bryan to accept Parker. But the only way they will get It is to -withdraw Parker, and that Is what they will probably do unless Bryan backs down over night. The common assumption is that Bryan Is making war on Parker merely because he does not like him. Probably he does not, but Bryan's dislikes are not his only reasons for his unex pected anti-Parker outbreak. Bryaa lltra-Radlml. ' He is a sound politician, and he looks upon Parker, and so does the great body of Democrats, aa a Demo cratic Root. He is a great co-operative lawyer and represents Wall street and all -the odious things Wall street stands for In Democratic prejudice. Bryan believes that the only course of Democracy, in the present crisis, is an extreme radicalism, and he is going to make that clear and emphatic from the outset. Bryan proposes to have a radical nominated as the antithesis of Taft on the one hand and an offset to Roosevelt on the other. He knows that Wilson Is a radical or progressive, with certain chronlo mental reserva tions, and Clark a progressive with his fingers crossed. But he is also both, or either, or perhaps none. As a dele gate from Nebraska, he is instructed for Clark, but as the apostle of De mocracy he Is giving aid and comfort to Wilson. Why? Because Wilson is the second, not the leading candidate, and is. face to face with the united forces of four or more candidates who . are operating under a gentleman's agreement to beat Wilson and ulti mately Bryan, too. Clark Hopes for Caaablaatloa. Clark hopes, and probably expects, to be, the residuary legatee of Gaynor, Harmon. Marshall and Underwood. If he does, he will be nominated. But the real conservative undercurrent here is for Underwood, not Clark. He is a stronger and abler man than Clark and he has the powerful and enthusiastic support or sympathy of Southern ststes that give Democratic majorities and no longer worship- the Bryan fetish.

Blythe.) : BALTIMORE. Md..- June 23. (Spec ial.) The only sure thing about this convention is that there is to be a fight. In Its broadest terms, that fight will be a fight of the same sort Chicago saw, a fight between radicalism or pro gressivlsm on - one hand and conser vatism on the other. The National committee end of it is likely to result, as the Chicago ma chine end resulted. In a victory for the organization, for It Is claimed there are from thirty-three to thirty-five members of the National committee who will uphold the choice of Judge Par ker for temporary chairman of the con vention. But, the problem that is wor rying the organization men is whether they can control the convention and have enough delegates to ratify the choice of Parker against the assault of Mr. Bryan and whatever allies he may find among the candidates. Parker Not Real Isaae. Judge Parker, as mild mannered a man as ever was defeated for President, is not the real issue. The judge occu pies the Interesting, but uncomforta ble position of being the pill the. oppos ing forces seek to take, not becanse they want the pill, but for the final effect pf the victory. 'Away down deep, Bryan probably has no serious objec tion to Judge Parker for temporary chairman of the. convention. Why should he have? Barring the fact that Parker has deprived Bryan since 1904 of his distinction , of being the only living defeated candidate for President on the Democratic ticket. Bryan can have no particular grudge against Par ker, for Parker always supported Bryan every time, he ran. and went out of his way to do it. when a good many Dem ocrats went out of their way to oppose Bryan.'

The little fellow repeated It but the Sheriff showed no sign of producing the price.

BOTH AT OUTS WITH REST Ex-Senator Declared Too Inexperi enced to Manage 'Colonel's Fight Issue - to Be Settled When They Come Back Home. BY HARRY J. BROWN. CHICAGO. June 23. (Special.) Colo nel Roosevelt will look to Dr. Henry W. Coe and Charles W. Ackerson to manage his campaign in Oregon, and they will take charge of arrangements for selection of delegates to attend the Roosevelt ratification convention in August. Just how and when this will be done has not yet been deter mined, but will be decided when Coe and Ackerson return to Oregon. It is the present plan of these two leaders to have Or. Coe selected as Roosevelt National committeeman, Coe setting up the claim that he Is an In timate friend . of Roosevelt and the logical man to manage the Colonel's campaign in Oregon. , Mmlkey'a Leadership Rejected. Ackerson will probably accede to this demand if he is made the chair man of the delegation. Just where ex-Senator Fred Mulkey will get in the game is not yet clear. Coe and Ackerson are Inclined to regard Mul key as too Inexperienced to take active part in the management of Roosevelt's fight, but they are entirely willing he shall be a delegate. They won't acknowledge his leadership, however.

Colorado Continues to Rise and Ef forts to Protect Railway Prop erty Are Made. NEEDLES, Cal., June 23. The Colo rado River continued to rise today, but no further reports of damage have been received. In Needles the Santa Fe Railroad, however, was taking no chances and work on the big retaining wall, which It was hoped would save the company's shops and depot, was being rushed by a large force of men. Reports from Topock, opposite Needles, on the Arizona side, tell of the recovery of several pieces of what appeared to be ancient pottery and works of art, at a spot where the cur rent had shifted and unearthed a sup posed ancient village, burled centuries ago. A more thorough search of the place is as yet impossible because of the high water. In the earlier stages of the flood re ports were brought here of the finding of what was believed to be the ruins of some buried city, but old river men uniformity denied these reports and said the flotsam found In the river was portions of buildings washed down stream from Needles.

Brides-to-be have all kinds of show ers these days, linen showers and cut glass showers; even silk stocking showers, but it remained for Miss Dor othy Everett to inaugurate the fashion of including a prospective bridegroom in a hosiery shower. She gave one at her home on West One Hundred and Third street a few days ago for Miss Li la Blandy and Warren Rishel, who are to be married in November. The invitations read "Silk stocking and silk hose shower." His friends were evidently In the ma jority, for he received 60 pairs, while hla fiancee had to be contented with 40 to add to her trousseau. Miss Blandy is a daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Charles Blandy, of 143 West One Hundred and Forty-first street, and Mr. Rishel Is a son of Mr. and Mrs. Alvln C. Rishel, of 7 West Ninetieth street.

THIRD BRANCH IS DEDICATED Colonel's Men Choose Bandana Handkerchiefs as Battleflag. - HADLEY LEAVES SILENTLY Roosevelt Appears With Bandana in Hand, Mrs. Long-worth. Wears One , in Hat Many Leaders Give ' No Hint Yet of Support. , f '. CHICAGO, June 23. The Progressive r party, born last night, was dedicated; today.' In the presence of perhaps 600, some of them recognised leaders of the movement, others merely onlookers, the first formal step was taken. Governor Johnson, of California, was empowered to appoint a committee of seven to con fer with Colonel Roosevelt and formu- late a plan of action. In the opinion of the leaders, the new party enters the field with a formidable equipment at the outset. These leaders, however, said that as to the men who took a conspicuous part In the cam paign for Colonel Roosevelt's nomina tion, each must speak for himself. The attitude of Governor Hadley, of Mis souri, was the chief point of discussion along this line. The Governor left town without waiting to declare him self, - Programme Not Decided. sr No definite- idea of the plan to be fol lowed could be obtained, and it was said several weeks might elapse before the programme is decided upon. Gov ernor Johnson in the meantime will act as field marshal and. In co-operation with Colonel Roosevelt, will decide upon the membership of the committee of seven to guide the work of organi zation. ' Colonel Roosevelt will return to Oy ster Bay tomorrow and Governor John son will return at once to California. ' Today's meeting was under the direc tion of the most prominent Roosevelt supporters who had not left town, Seated at a table with Governor John son were James R. Garfield, Gilford Plnchot, Governor Stubbs, of Kansas; Medlll McCormlck, of Chicago, and Sen ator Clapp, of Minnesota. "Steam-Rolled" Delegates Present. Scattered through the hall were large number of Roosevelt delegates to the Republican convention, as well as some of the "steam-rolled" dele gates to whom seats had been refused. It was impossible to ascertain how large a proportion of the full Roose velt strength at the convention was represented, although it was said that nearly every state which sent Roose velt delegates to Chicago had its share of men there. The bandana handkerchief was adopted as the "Roosevelt battle flag." Most of the delegates wore flaming bandanas wound around their arms. The bandana, it was explained, stands for the plain people who ordinarily use them. . -. . Colonel Wears Bandana. Colonel Roosevelt gave his sanction to the "battle flag" by appearing last night with one in his. hand, which ha waved to the crowd on the street. Bis daughter, Mrs. Nicholas Longworth, wore a bandana on her hat. "I am not acting as the leader of this new movement," said Governor Johnson, when the meeting had been called to order. "The active leader must be a man from 'a more accessible state than California. I am merely acting as chairman of this meeting, at which we are to begin on the road which leads to political freedom." ' Judge Lindsay, a Democrat of Den ver, said: - "Surely there can be no more solemn occasion than this. We are beginning on Sunday a great new movement I believe we should begin it by asking the guidance of him for whom vi in here." Meeting la Orderly. Dr. W. H. Dixon, of Selma, Ala, a negro clergyman and a Roosevelt dele gate who was excluded from the Re publican convention, began to recite the 23d Psalm, which begins: "The Lord is my shepherd." The delegates arose and repeated it with him. A prayer by Mr. MIxon followed. Someone began to sing "America" and In a moment the others were singing. There was no cheering nor handclap plng, no cry of "Eat 'em alive, Teddy." Governor Johnson In his opening ad dress appealed to the delegates to stay In the fight. "This is a solemn occasion," he told them, "as it was last night, when we met to tender the nomination for President to Roosevelt The time for action has come. Let us begin to act rather than to waste-our time in talk ing." Mr. Garfield said they realized ex treme care must be taken in the or ganization of the ' movement Each state, he said, must work out its own problem of organization and adapt itself to the laws which govern the se lection of Presidential electors.
