tlon Tliejr Feared Hryan's Speech
and Attempted to (ia/ Him Hut
Failed.
The Democratic State Convention
of 'Nebraska met at Grand Island on
Tuesday. Amid a tumult of cheers <
from the former followers of W. Jen- 1
twigs Dry a ii, permanent Chairman
Smyth of the Democratic platform 1
committer, read the result of a test
volO of the gathering, which practi- '
rally took from Mr. Kryan the Democratic
leadership of Nebraska,
which he has austuined for fourteen '
A ; . r
y .
The vote came on a motion made
by Congressman 0. M. Hitch cook, a
candidate for the Senatorial nouiinu- '
Hon, Whlcli in effect was to elinn?i?te
the introduction of platform
(danUs with a ceo in pa ni o? speeches^
unless submitted as a section ot
the majority or minority report of
the committee on resolutions. Mr.
tlryan, sealed as a member ot the
l.aur.H&ter County delegation. was ou
his feet immediately with a protest.,
and nffererl uh ameoUineut that e
would modify that intent of the or- s
igfnal motion The Bryan adherents
denounced the ffitchrook motion as
"Bag rule,' and their opponents lie- '
Clared that "individual rule" uiuhi
not prevail. Chairman Smyth ordered
a roll call on the amendment.
When two-thirds had been called
opponents of Mr. Bryan reali/.ed ;1
thai he was defeated and'a wave of
cheers that drowned the roll call
began.
As Chairman Smyth read (ho result,
4:! ti against Mr. Itryau's amendment
to :t04 in favor of it, the delegales
sounded a fresh volume o.'
cheers that seemed to indicate their
relief from the uncertainty tliat Jiad ''
eristed as to the strength which Mr. 1
Bryan might develop in the Convention.
;i
The original motion of Mr. Hitchcock
was then adopted. ^
The action of the Convention prac- ,v
tlcally prohibits any speech from Mr. 1
ltrynn unless, as a member of (he .
resolutions committee, he Hbouid !'
speak on one of Uu> planks offered "
4?y the commit ten- U? the Convention. l"
Tho plank in dispute was. 1
"Wa heartily approve of the dtty- '
light salons law and we commend
the cournKt'uui actio* of Governor *
(Hiancuber^cr iu approving it."
Vbe plank was adopted by a vote
of 710 to 1671.
It whs then announced that two ''
. (V
minority reports would In' submitted,
0110 Itv W.J. Itryuti and the other
h|r H. It. 1*1 eh arty. 1
That of Mr. 9tryan rend: ^
"We favor county option as tin'
best method of dealing wiUi the Jiquov
question."
That of Mr. ft eh arty was:
"We favor local option as now |*
provided for by taw, tint are opposed
to county option." *
The majority plank on the liquor
question, fnvored by five of the se\en
members then was read as lotloon:
*
"We are opposed to making county
option or any other plan for the
regulation of the liquor tmllir a
question of party creed. We stand
for ami insist upon strict endorse- j
menl of our present laws ami hebey
p that any further changes in
Our liquor legislation should he decided
by a direct ?ute of the people,
And that the cause- of good govern- cr
incut and public morals sill be l?et- ,n
ter Served in that way than by Ji- |*
viding the people into hostile fac- 111
ttous on purely moral Issues."
Speeches were made by the apoo?-?cs
of the planks, and the Coaveu- '?
tion then settled down to the linul :l
tattle. M
iMr. Itryan. spesking from the {'*
pialforio in ttehalf of the minority *'u
plank presented by him, was greeted
hy shoots of applause and was
listened to in silence, lie said hi

Clared that he had been fearless l?I
when his own future seemed at ?

About three months ago "Pio(Joodwin.

011 South Sumter street, and for
several weeks did a phenomenal and
rushing business. In the zenith of
his glory he suddenly disappeared.
rtno upon inquiry it whs learned taut
be had relieved Ralph Hill, a local
bicycle dealer, of $7 00 dollars by a
eunnigly-lald scheme. Young Hill
nlsims that he told him that he ;>osessed
a secret process by which ?ie
sd'uld make money multiply by nublectins
It to a certain electrical p,-~:ess.
In order to demonstrate that
wonderful power, it is said, he inluced
Hill to bring him one hunlred
dollars in currency, which voll
ie dipped into a bucket of water ami
;ave to 11111 to keep until the n?.a
uorning. Hill agreeing not to open
lie package until a specified hour.
A'hen the package was o|>eiied on
he follow ing morning, lo and be?old,
there was tho two liundred
lollars in currency of the real
uotiey. and Hill fell into the wliaid
trap.
Tlia same afternoon after consultiir
with the professor he sot togethr
seven liundred dollars, and off nr.
vent to have that amouut subjected
o the same treatment and douol^u
a the same mannci. The san.e .111nersioa

Kvorjr etfort was made to appreend
the professor bel'o?e he got beond

II to no avail. Then Hill had cirulsrs
printed giving the size ana

a reward of $100 for his apreheusion
and arrest. About a wwk
go word was n^crlved from Rellair,

Hill went and found tho suspect

Sruwntid and six others had narrow

and used by the soldiers at Fort
Screven, sank Id lazaretto creek,
near the fort, late Friday afterno<*u
A hlle the outgoing; tide was rusbiiin*
through the creek at race horse
horse speed.
The dei-d are: Sergeant Olivet,
one of the best known non-commissioned
officers In the coast artillery
corps; a ?> year old son ot Sergf.
Helke. It Is believed that Sergt.
Oliver, who Is an old man. lest his
life while trying to save that of
the child.
A wotrtan member of the pa?".y
was caught by the tide and carried
down the creek for several hundred
yards, set taming for help until she
lost consciousness. Fishermen further
down the stream heard iter and
put out In tKJUts. She was caught
as she was sweeping by them, hurried
to the bank and after a long
time was revived.
Other occupants of the launch. It
Is believed now, escaped after a bat
tie with the tide. The accident occurred
whent the Tybee rwlron 1 i
crosses the creek on a low bridge.
The top of the launch struck the
bridge, the craft careened and was
swept under water in a moment. A
passenger train crowded with pleasure
seekers ?u the way to Tybee
'reach reached the bridge soou ul' <
the accident. Passengers cared tor
the survivors. ,
t Reports of t.he accident at Fort
Screven sent a detail of soldiers to
the creek in an effort to recover he
bodies. Ii is feared the sea vv 'i j
be very difficult as it is profitable
the tide carried them out into the
month of the Savannah and possibly
to sea. The survivors, dripping
and suffering from fright, were taken
aboard the train and hurried to
the fort. The launch probably is
unhurt and can be raised.
