The Dahlman faction will fight any resolution endorsing Bryan. . The Bry an faction will fight any resolution endorsing anyone else and the Shal leuberger faction will fight both Bryan and Dahlman if resolutions favoring either are Introduced. From indications the convention will simply ignore Mr. Bryan and it is believed his friends will not dare risk a vote of censure by introducing a res olution favoring Bryan. Neither the Shallenberger nor Dahl man factions, it is said, will attempt to introduce a resolution against Mr. Bryan unless Bryan's friends force their ban lis and the Bryan delegates are in the small minority.
