A Bit of Vice-Presidential Gossip at Denver. Denver. July 4.— Herman Ridder. of New York, for Vice-President. was reported here to-day to be Bryan's pr^fr-renc-e. With the arrival In Denver to-Cay of several prominent Democrats who are in the confidence of Bryan came the rumor that he had decided that Mr. Bidder was available for the nomination. According to reports from Lincoln, the reasoning af the Bryan managers la suggesting Mr. Ridder is as follows: Mr. Bidder is one of the leading citizens of Ger man desc-ent in the United States. He was - "gold Democrat" and possesses the confidence of that wing of the party. He" has been affiliated with the conservative wing of th* democracy tor the last twelve years, and would' command the support of Ikes tit me nt Car the ticket. A large proportion of the population of the "United States Js German or of German descent, especially In New York State, the electoral votes of which Mr. Bryan is anxious to win. - It is said to be the idea of Mr. Bryan that he must have a man as his running mate who will represent 'the wing of the party which has an tagonized him in the past. He 1? said to prefer a man who, perhaps, Old not support him In either of the last two campaiens who can command the support of the German vote, who comes from New York and who favors tariff revision and other poli cies of Mr. Bryan's. Mr. Ridder possesses all these Qualifications, the Bryan people say. Mr. Riddei arrived in Denver this morning and announced his unchanged antagonism to Bryan's candidacy. He said he would at once begta a cam paign amonsr the delegates to defeat the Nebraskan. As soon as be had rested from his journey he would begin work among both instructed and unin- Etructed delegate? in an effort to convince them that Bryan cannot carry New York this year and that the electoral vote of New. York is necessary to the success of the national ticket. Mr. Bidder said he expected to visit all the state delegations, par ticularly those from the South, and address them on Mr. Bryan's political weakness in New York State. "GRAY AM) BRYAN."

DENVER'S FIERY 4TH ALL LURID BUT PARKER. He Sings a Harmony Song, Not Mentioning Cleveland Resolution. Denver. July The American eagle and the Democratic rooster have vied with each other to-day in giving Denver the most lurid Fourth of July In its existence. Throughout the day the streets have been ablaze with color, an in cessant din of cannon and crackers h«s mingled with the enthusiasm of arriving political delega tions, and long trains have crept over the prairie from every direction, adding their throngs to the multitude already here. To-night the State Capitol and other public buildings are illumi nated, the streets are filled with convention throngs and resound with the clatter of lire* works, and the hotel lobbies are crowded with political leaders, delegates and onlookers from every section of the country. Thus far, how ever, the crowds are somewhat below the av erage of national conventions, owing to the dis tance of Denver from the populous centres and because government and stete restrictions on railroad passes keep back hundreds who have heretofore made a national convention the occa sion for a free excursion. However, the conven tion is still three days off. and there Is ample time for an influx up to precedent in numbers and noise, ft is estimated that twenty thousand strangers are already here, and sixty thousand more are expected in the next two days. The arrivals to-day included the Missouri dele gation, headed by Senator Stone; part of the North Carolina delegation, headed by Governor Glenn, who promptly retired his candidacy for the Vice-Presidency, and straggling advance guards of many of the other delegations. These. with Alton B. Parker, the Democratic candidate of 1!MM; Colonel Clayton, of Alabama, who will be permanent chairman of the convention; Charles F. Murphy, of Tammany Hall, and Governor Haskell of Oklahoma, r favorite candi date for chair of the platform committee, are the chief figures of national interest no # w on the ground. But there is rather a noticeable absence of national leaders and the conspicuous figures of former conventions, such as Tillman, Bailey. Culberson, Champ Clark and John Sharp Williams. Most of the men of action in this fathering are from the ranks of local leaders. One of the arrivals to-day was Charles W. Bryan, brother of the candidate, who came from Lincoln with a number of the Nebraska leaders to dispense hospitality from the Nebraska and Bryan headquarters. This is the first appear ance of "Brother Charles" in national affairs, although he has been for eleven rears private secretary to his brother and the business head of "The Commoner," to which William J. con tributes the editorial inspiration. Ex-Judge Parker attracts much attention and Interest. When seen to-day he did not wish to give a formal interview, but in an informal way he chatted on the situation and the outlook. "Do you consider the Presidential nomination still an open question, or is Mr. Bryan's nom ination leasonably assured?" he was asked. PARKER STATES HIS VIEWS. "Of course, I have no more exact information than you have on that subject,"' he replied. "But the reports gathered by the press and by those who are keeping pretty close track of the standing of delegates appear to indicate that Mr. Bryan has a very strong lead, and one which may be sufficient to give him the nomination. At the same time, we are here in friendly rival ry, both as to men and measures. It may be that some of us would have preferred another candidate. But we are here for an exchange of views, and it is the very essence of Democratic faith to accept the will of the majority. Of course, there is only one. final way for that will to have official expression, and that is by a ballot in the convention. Meantime, there is not a man in the convention who will not say to-day that he is ready to accept the will of the convention and support the candidate when that will is definitely made known." "In the event of Mr. Bryan's nomination, I judge from the foregoing that you would wish your stanch friends of 1904 to give their loyal support to him?" was asked. •Most assuredly," he replied, "and why not? Mr. Bryan will then become the exponent of the Democratic party, with Its great principles and 1' . great mission still to perform. Mr. Bryan's ability is everywhere conceded, and by no one more than myself. He is a gentleman of splen did intellectual ability, of vast information on public affairs, an orator of magnetic qualities, with an engaging personality which wins him hosts of devoted adherents, and a natural leader of men. Make no mistake, therefore, as to the attitude and the personal feeling of my friends and of myself toward Mr. Bryan in the event of his nomination." "Is there any division of sentiment over the platform?" AS TO THE PLATFORM ••Don't tall it division of sentiment. It is the *>ame as to measures as It is to men — we are here for an exchange of views. We are all de voted to the great party with which we have long been identified. In a gathering of one thousand men from every section of this im mense country it is altogether natural that thero should be differing shades of view upon some of the great problems now confronting the country. This difference of view and this rec onciling of th<> varying shades of sentiment serve a most valuable end, for out of it all will come the solid Jugdment of Democrats representing the whole country, and such a judgment, it is to be hoped, will !>•• consistent with the great prin ciples ..f the Democratic party and will serve the country in a most vital manner at this mo meat by combating the Rooseveltian tendency to centralta* all power In the hands of tii<- fed eral government as against the states. I do not want to go into details as to these prln cip!'-p, as some gentlemen are a bit sensitive and ap prone to arraign us as radicals or con servatives. However, all this will, I trust. b- j reconciled; conservatism will. I hope and be lieve, have a moderating influence upon the more advanced ideas of some of our brothers, while the advanced views will keep us from lagging in the rear and will insure the party a steady infusion of the progressive spirit of the age Leave to the pessimists, therefore, the talk of troubles over candidates and platform We will consider, confer and then decide, and that decision will present to the country a ticket which will command enthusiastic ap proval and a declaration of principles, which I fervently trust will be satisfactory to the best thought of the country, and both ticket and dec laration taken together will.

Murphy and the other N. w Yorkers are pre serving a close reserv- on the Vice-Presidency, iiFi'l all inquiries are met with the assurance that New York's attitude will not be known until th- meeting of the delegation on Monday night.

XEW-YORK DAILY TRIBUNE, SUNDAY, JULY 5, 1908. GRAY TALK PERSISTS Murphy Doesn't Want Gaynor. But Would Take Him. [By TeleKrapn to The Tribune. 1 Denver, July 4.— "No man can well refuse a position on the Presidential ticket." This statement, made by Josiah Marvel, one of the managers for Judge Gray, and the in creasing evidence that Bryan is determined to obtain the Delaware Jurist for a running mate, if possible, gave renewed interest to the dlscus- Flon to-day of the likelihood of Judge Gray's being nominated for second place. R. J. Beamish, the other manager of the Gray Presi d.ntial boom. Insists that his principal will not accept the nomination for second place, an-1 the two managers to-day addressed a letter to the delegates, urging that the ticket should be Gray and Bryan. Privately, the authors of the letter acknowledge that they expect no results from it. Charles F. Murphy, the boss of Tammany Hal!, is ready to deliver the New York delegation to Bryan on the first ballot, but he wants his price for it. Murphy has been talking with the Bryan men, and while h" has not said a great deal, he has convinced them that he has nothing against Bryan provided the Bryan men will do the right thing by New York. The price demanded by Murphy is, in part, as follows: The Vice-Presidency for some one who will run well in New York City, and thus swell the Tammany pluralities as far as possible in a bad ye^r. Second, the shutting of the McCar ren contesting delegates cut of the convention. Third, a modification of some of the Bryan ideas in Che platform. With his 78 vutes tucked away in his inside pocket, Mr. Murphy went out to play golf this afternoon with Martin W. Littleton. Murphy ( wants to make the best of a bad situation by getting everything possible out of it with his block of votes Murphy does not take kindly to Bryan's sug gestioh that the New York delegates present the name of 'justice William J. Gaynor for sec ond place. Bryan wants Gaynor if he cannot get Judge Gray, because he thinks that Gaynor will cut into the Hearst vote and at the same time lend dignity to the ticket. But Murphy is hostile to Gaynor tor reasons that he does not talk about, but which are discussed in se- j cret by Tammany men. He wants Bryan to name some other New Yorker for his running mate. Mr. Bryan's managers have been in- j formed of Murphy's wishes and have commu- j nicated them to the Nebraskan. If Murphy has ] to take Gaynor he will, but he prefers some : one else. The only thing attractive about the Gaynor proposition is that McCarren. after ; being thrown out by the credentials committee of the convention, would have to fail into line and support the ticket. When Mr. Murphy was seen to-day by a Tribune correspondent, he said: "There is no change in the situation. We are all marking time and waiting for the delegates to get here. I have talked casually with some of the leaders here. I have no candidate for Vice-President. Even if I had, I would not say anything about him till I have had a chance to talk with the delegates, who will not be here till Monday." Mr. Murphy's suggestion that he is leaving things to the delegates will cause a wide smile on the Bowery, but it seems to go with the Western delegates. All AIT MURPHY'S WORD. Anti-Bryanites Undecided About Continuing Fight. Denver. July 4.— Whether to continue the fight against William J. Bryan or to abandon the field to those who insist that the Nebraskan will be nominated on the first ballot, has been the Bubject of many conferences here to-day, in which the leaders of the anti-Bryan forces have taken part. The decision hinges on the attitude of the New York delegation, which will follow tli«- judgment of Charles F. Murphy, leader of Tammany Hall. Mr. Murphy is not ready to an nounce his position, and said so to such men as Colonel J. M. Guffey, of Pennsylvania, and Will iam V. Sh'-'-'lian. Of New York City. These men gained the impression that Mr. Murphy is not disposed to Join in a movement to defeat Mr. Bryan if it is demonstrated within the next forty-eight hours beyond a shadow of doubt that the task Is hopeless. Mr. Murphy does not in tend to take up the cudgels in defence of a lo<;t cause. He is not ready at this time to commit New York's seventy-eight votes to any candi date, and is waiting for developments between now and the time of the New York State caucus on Monday, to determine his course. With New York's position undetermined the question of carrying on the fight against Mr. Bryan is still open. The conferences to-day were not directed by the representatives of Jud^e <;,.., rK M Gray and Governor Johnson, the only candidates against Mr. Bryan, who are now in the field, but were entirely apart from any plan to further the Interests of either of these men. The move was solely one to develop the extent of the opposition to Mr. Bryan and disclose whether a chance to prevent his nomination exists. The Bryan m-n are taking little notice of the work against their candidate, and continue to announce with the utmost confidence that the Nebraskan cannot bo beaten. Josiah Marvel, speaking for the Gray men. and Frederick B. Lynch, the manager for Governor Johnson, are advising everybody to wait until all the dele gates arrive before deciding that Mr. Bryan's nomination is settled. Mr. Murphy and Mr. Sheehan held a confer ence latf-r, at which the whole situation was gone over. The only result of the conference that could be ascertained was the statement that the position of New York will not be de termined until the caucus <>n Monday. At the end of the o delegates in caucus. Asked as to the reported favoring of Justice Gaynor for the VicevPre deafly, Mr. Murphy told Mr. Taggart that New York had a number ol men who would honor th?. place, but did not '.now whether they would accept or not, an.l above all. that the delegation had come to. no decision as to the advisability of offering a candidate to the party at this time.

Breaks Rule of Political Life— Guffey Criticised. Lincoln. Xeb., July 4.— The front porch feat ure of Presidential campaigns began at Fair view to-day. Mr. Bryan addressed delegations from six states to a dim refrain of bursting firecrackers? four miles away, and Mr?. Bryan saw the beginning of the end of her lawn. A caravan from Pennsylvania, with much enthu siasm but little brotherly love for National CommittfCTnan Guffey of that state, was the first to arrive at 10:30 o'clock in the morning, and from that time on, what with the contribu tions of the South in the way of visitors and an influx of holiday maker? from the adjacent country, who brought their lunches and ate them for th^ most part in th^ Bryan back yard, to the resplendent arrival of the Cook County Democracy, headed by a brass band and Robert E. Burko. the onslaught on the Bryan green sward continued with scarce an interruption. Train aft^r train emptied its load of human freight at Lincoln into the arms of a large and industrious reception committee. Delegations inarched through the streets past flags and bunting and pictures of Mr. Bryan bearing the Ifgond "Welcome to Bryan's Town," to take part in a none too sane Fourth of July celebrat4on, and took trolley cars for the Democratic Mecca. All told, the delegations received up to 5 o'clock numbered some eight hundred, to say nothing of other visitors. Mr Bryan beamed on them, he smiled at them. he welcomed th<>m with cheerful benediction and ho told them he hoped to see them pass in review before the White House on March 4, next. "I believe." said he. "that we have an excel lent prospect of winning this election," whereat there were cries of "You bet we will:" and a high pitched and solitary "Bully for you, Billie:" which was greeted with frowns by the almost worshipful crowds. The owner of the indiscreet enthusiasm readjusted his badge and subsided. Mr. Bryan also predicted that he would be nomina.ed at Denver. Mr. Bryan broke the rule of his political life in responding to the Pennsylvania delegation, the first to arrive. He commented on a factional fight in a state to the disparagement of one fac tion, and Tom L. Johnson, who stood near by, followed with a brief talk, in which he said that he was glad that Mr. Bryan had spoken as he had. GUFFEY ACCUSED OF CONSPIRACY. It was National Committeeman Guffey. of Pennsylvania, who came in for the criticism. James K«rr, of Clearfield, Fenn., charged Mr. Guffey with conspiring with the corporations to defeat the plain will of the people of that state as to thf j. -\v\ Tom linson. of Alabama (who will succeed Congress man Clayton a.« national committeeman) that W. R. Hearst "ill i ompelled to support Mr. Bryan with the Independence League. Mr. Hearst has demanded < ertain political reforms, and he cannot with political safety deny the one mnn, capable of bringing them about, is the argument given. It is not unlikely that then,- Is already some understanding between the Nebraskan ami the New fork publisher. Mr. Bryan's recent editorial in defense of pj r . Hearst is regarded as evidence of ut least i tentative -uep toward the restoration of harmony. Charles P. Williams and Manton M. Wyvell, delegate.-, from New York, wen also inclined to this view. It was f. O'clock before the lust delegation had departed from Fairview. The Jackson <'bir> ..f Omaha and a delegation of forty-five persona from Massachusetts followed the Cook County Democracy, but they stayed only a few minutes. Mr. Bis an shook hands with each une.

National Committeeman Daniel, of North Carolina, said to-day that his state would give Bryan its solid support until he was nominated. He believes the Denver convention should ad journ the first day out of respect for ex-Presi dent Cleveland. He will oppose any resolution calculated to stir up conflict, but thinks a suit able memorial should be adopted. Florida celebrated its arrival with the an nouncement that the delegation from that state has a Vire-Prosidentlal candidate in the person of Governor Broward. Former Governor Jen nings made the announcement, saying that Broward would receive the support of the Flor ida delegation, at least on the first ballot. Delegates from that state, however, do not take his candidacy seriously. The Alabama delegation was one of the most enthusiastic which have visited the city. Ex- Governor Cunningham and National Commit teeman Tomlinson were with the delegation and agreed that Alabama was willing to have Mr. Bryan picK the Vice-Presidential nominee and write the platform. "The delegation will be in fluenced by whatever Bryan wants." said Gov ernor Cunningham. "All of our people are for Bryan, and he will receive three-fourths of the vote of the state."

July 4. — The greatest ex citement prevailed at the Indian Harbor Yacht Club to-night, when $1,000 worth of fireworks exploded at one time, the rockets, candles and everything shooting in every direction into a crowd of a thousand yachtsmen, their guests and residents of Greenwich, who had gathered to witness the display. The fireworks wen out on the town pier, about a hundred feet from the front of the clubhouse, and three pieces had been fired off when the ex plosion occurred. The pier was packed; ac were the piazzas of the clubhouse, while close to shot*. were many private yachts filled wth visitors from New York City. Across the narrow harbor were E. C. Benedict and F. S. Hastings and their families seated on their verandas at Ind ian Harbor, and rockets even went there. Women and children wen trampled on, while the fireworks hit the crowd as they rushed away. One woman's hand was ripped open by a rocket stick. Another wo«hmi was picked up uncon scious, having been trampled on. Physicians wen quickly summoned, and automobiles, of which there were a hundred near by. began tak ing the injured away.
