DEMOCRATS
Although Political Enemy of Bryan Sul-
livan Says Convention Will Endorse
Him Whether Hi Likes or Not
Teorla 111. Auar. 21. The Dem-
ocratic at a to convention met today
for the purpose of nominating can-
didates for stale treasurer state su-
perintendent of public instruction
and three trustees for thd University
of Illinois. In reality however the
convention was more of a fight for
the control of the state party machin-
ery between the faction headed by
National Committeeman Bulllvan of
Chicago and the immediate followers
of Bryan who In successive lettera
has asked the rexlgnatlon of Sullivan
from the national committee on the
grounds that his election was Im-
properly obtained two yeara ago.
Sijlllvan has not only refused to re-
sign but ho and his friends em-
phatically term it aa an interference
of Bryan In tlielr stale politics. Be-
fore the convention Sullivan claimed
that he controlled 1400 out of 1665
delegates. Tbe Ilryan people headed
by. Judge Thompson of Jacksonville
and Congressman Ralney declared
that unlets tho convention repudiat-
ed Sulflvan they would fight to
the Inst aguinat any endorsement of
Bryan by the convention. Sullivan
on the other hand declared that Bry-
an would be endorsed whether he
like It or not.
Teorla 111. Aug. 20. A determin-
ed light la being made by the Sulll-van-Hopkins
ring to prevent the en-
dorsement of Bryan by the Democrat-
ic atate convention which is In ees-
alon here today. Sullivan declares
that many delegates from the coun-
try districts are arrayed on theiralde
as well an the Cook county conting-
ent and that they can control the ac-
tion of the convention. Bryan Is
highly popular among the Democrat-
ic voters of the atate however and
it Is unlikely that the convention will
dare to refuse to favor his candidacy.
The fight being made on the Nebras-
kan la due to a letter written by
Bryan in which he dei.ianded that
Roger C Sullivan resign as national
committeeman alleging that he se-
cured the office through fraud.
OHIO DEMOCRATS
Nearly One Thousand Delegates In At-
tendance it (hi State Convention-
No Nominations Made Today.
Columbus O. Aug. 21. The Ohio
Democratlo convention opened hero
today with the full quota of 926 dele-
gates In attendance. B. Y. McCann
of Dayton was elected temporary
chairman. P. Rusaell of Wayne
temporary secretary and Albert Bar-
low of Butler Sergeant-at-arms. No
nominations will be made until to-
morrow when a full state ticket will
be decided upon. No slate has been
prepared and the result of the com-
ing fight on the floor of the conven-
tion la yet uncertain although it Is
believed that the so-called Tattlson
faction will control the nominations.
A strong fight is being made by many
of the delegates to secure the en-
dorsement of William J. Bryan for
the prealdency.' a'ri.d U will probably
be aucceasful.
; ALL EFFORTS FAIL
Mall Steamer Manchuria Strands on Rab-
bit) Island Rofusss to Come Off the
F.eef Beat Is Leaking.
Honolulu Aug. 21.- All efforts bo
far have failed to pull off the mall
steamer Manchuria which Is strand-
ed off Rabbltt Island on the north
short of Oahu and a cable may bo
nent asking for tuge from San Fran-
cisco. There will be a large high tld
tomorrow morning at five o'clock
and another' attempt will then be
made to haul .the liner oft the reef.
It Is probable that tbe steamer Ala-
meda may help In this effort to got
the stranded steamer Into deep wa-
ter but tor position la such aa to
give little hope of success The Inter
Island steamers which acted as tow
boats are now arriving here with
Asiatic passengers from the Man-
churia on board and other passengers
are coming In overland. It is report-
ed that the stranded steamer Is leak-
ing and that pumpa aro at work.
