Neb , Jul 20 Influential eastern democrats have told YV J Hryan that In their opinion the anti-injunction plank of the platform, adopted at Denver was hardly worth the paper It was writ ten on. the reason alleged by them being thai the David R. Hill bill, pass ed by the senate, which la specifically Indorsed by the democratic plank. simply carried out the common law provision, granting a Jury trial In con tempt cases" In the Jurisdiction of the presiding Judge." The plank was drafted on the as sumption that the Hill bill was pass ed only after It had been amended by Senator Allen, of Nebraska, to make trial by Jury mandatory at the re quest of the defendant. M,r. Bryan spent several anxious hours after he received this informa tion. While reasonably sure of his ground, the allegation that he and the majority of the committee on reso Lotions had been tricked caused him to worry and he admitted that he would have an Inquiry set on foot. The Assocluted Press corresMndent Oil evening relieved this suspense by suomuiing to Air- uryan auviccs irom Washington showing that the Hill bill us finally adopted by the senate In 1886 provided for summary punish ment by the court In direct contempt cases, but made it mandatory for the court to grant a trial by Jury In all coses where such contempt was com mitted outside of the Jurisdiction of the court and where such.
