Bill EXCELLENT BRASS BAND IN ATTENDANCE For Harmony In Illinois Springfield, 111., April 22. The ac vance guard of delegates has put in an appearance for the democratic state convention which assembles here tomorrow to select the Illinois dele- gates at large to the Denver con vention. The most of the delegates and visi tors, however, including several train loads from Chicago, are not expected to arrive until early tomorrow morn ing. The older party leaders believe -that a harmonious gathering is assured, though the conditions within the party are undeniably ripe for an interesting and lively convention. The ranks are divided between "Simon-pure," who are staunch support ers cf . Bryan, and the Sullivan fac tion, which is under the domination of Roger' Sullivan, the Illinois member of the national committee. The Sul livan crowd has no great love for the Nebraska leader, while on the other hand Mr. Bryan and his followers would not mourn if Mr. Sullivan were ousted from his pkice on the national committee. Former Mayor Carter H. Harrison has led the fight for Bryan in Chicago and he has openly intimated that if to morrow's convention does not go the way he and his followers desire it will mean rival delegations to the Denver convention. Among the rank and file, however, there is believed to be little chance for the convention to split. - The Sulli van element are expected to support the movement for Bryan instructions, provided no move is made to oust Sul livan from the national committee. As there is little to be gained by either faction through an open rupture, the chances seem to favor a compromise and a harmonious convention. Masonic Grand Lodge Rally. Trenton, N. J., April 22.
