The Bryanlles Defeated In Committee
In Trying to secure Endorsement.
A GOLD BUG MARCHED OUT
The Proceedings it tho Democratic State
Convention, With Bryan's Name,
Were so Obnoxious That a
Philadelphia Oelegite Re
signed Bli Seat.
HnrrlBliurK, Juno 15. Kour hundred
ind thlrty-fivo representatives of the
Democracy of Pennsylvania met here
yesterday for tho purpose of nominat
ing rnnlldntna frit Dllhrattta nriitrt
judge, superior court Judge and state
1 itiarn. mi
treanuror. Shortly after midnight the
convention arljournod until today vWth-
out htlvlnB nccompllshod tho Ont and
most Important piece of work cut out
candidate for supremo Judge. .Nearly
six hours wore consumed Tn the pre
liminary work of tho convention, and
between 0 o'clock and midnight, with
an hour's intermission for supper, the
delegates cast eleven fruitless ballots
for n score or moro of candidates for
that high ofllco, tho deadlock at mid
night being apparently as Arm aa It
wns at 6 o'clock.
When adjournment was had thero
woro 11 candidates In the field, with
votes ranging from 13 to 72, the high
est bolng a long way off from tho 218
necessary to elect. Tho determined
battle arises from tho fact that the
nomlneo Is sure to bo elected to serve
20 years. At this writing the fight
appears to havo narrowed down to
Jutlgo Kennedy of Allegheny and Judge
Yorkes of Bucks.
With tho supremo court Judgeship
out of tho way tho remainder of tha
convention's work will probablo bo dis
posed of by acclamation.
Tho platform adopted reaffirms
briefly the Chicago platform and eulo
gizes Bryan's leadership, but contonds
that thn Cnmnnlm ahnll ha nnnflnnH
to a fight against alleged Republican
misrule nnd "Quaylsm." Natlonnl
Committeeman Guffoy dominated tho
platform councils, and its various
planks are said to ho satisfactory to
him.

P. Donnelly, of Philadelphia, was elected'
