on the appearance of unre lenting war and anything may now de 'velop in the final results of the coming 1 convention There are five members of the sub committee who tonight are practically on the firing line all disposed to fight any 'program Which Mr Bryan may dictate The five are: Thomas Taggart chairman of the na tional committee Roger Sullivan of Illinois John McGraw of West Virginia Clarke Howell of Georgia Col Johnson of Texas This makes five of nine and If a sixth were needed Urey Woodson of Kentucky secretary of the national committee fills the iuota The failure of James Dahlman mayor of Omaha and national commit teeman from Nebraska to arrive In Den ver tonight with the were the basis of the tentative agree ment between Bryan and element as Indicated by which Norman Mack made yesterday after he Lincoln lies at the bottom of the sudden and sensational shift In the current of affairs The real reason for the surprising stand which the leaders have taken since 9 o'clock tonight the sched hour for the arrival Dahlman rests as stated upon the insistence ofBryan that Theodore Bell of Calfornla shall be the temporary chairman and in deed it Is declared from authoritative sources that Bell has been Bryan that he Is the chosen prepared his speech as per from 'Lincoln Insist on Bell It is one of the assured facts that Bell 1 will not be the temporary chairman un less the convention follows the precedent set at Kansas City 1900 when David Hill was turned down and chooses Bell for the temporary chairmanship against the candidate Taggart will present to mlttee Who the temporary chosen by the subcommittee at 4 tomorrow afternoon will be is still an un certainty It is undoubtedly true that no agreement has been reached and It is equally true that no more advice will be taken from Lincoln The sensationalists here see prospect for a complete throw down of the Bryan program which may reach as far as failure of Bryan io be nominated Under any circumstances the harmony program went shooting skyward tonight and what Bryan now gets from the con ventlon will be his because he fought and won The Johnson men here have suddenly and excitedly taken fresh hope They now assert that Bryan can not win on the first ballot by a two thlrds vote and that Johnson's nomination is assured on the third ballot In this respect developments He along the line of the forecasts which went out from time to time from the Johnson headquarters in Chicago Neverthless the Johnson enthu siasts have changed their tune from a requiem and a story of what might have been to a budding and joyous pean of what may happen It may be thoroughgoing "bunk" so far as the infusion Of life into the John son boom Is concerned but as to the re lations now existing between the leaderswho will have complete control of the early convention details and who have large gobs of votes to deliver at the crit ical moment and Bryan the case Is clear and the odds are thoroughly against Bryan tonight Too Easy for Sullivan The Lincoln Denver wire went down When It was disclosed late this after noon that Bryan had allowed It to be come known at Lincoln that he would not attempt to name either the tempor ary chairman or the chairman of the na tional committee but that he reserved the right to object to the attachment of any man to his campaign either as a keynoter or as the actual head of the campaign who is not a Bryan out and outer This was top easy for Roger Sulli van who had been slated by the organi sation leaders for the chairmanship of the new national committee and forThomas Taggart and the rest of the half dozen 'who have suddenly and surely lost all their pro Bryan tendencies I Danger signals waved all day fromthe national committee headquarters
