THE DEMOCRATIC CANDIDATE

By CABLE—PRESS ASSOCIATION—Ct^PYKIGHT. (Received June 22, 12.30 p.m.) • NEW YORK, June 21. At Chicago Mr Roosevelt's supporters are working vigorously to prevent Mr Roosevelt from holding his own convention, lest the Republican party President Taft's chances are now of the rosiest. Every possible attention is being centred on the demands 'tred on the democrat's "dark horse, Mr W. J. Bryan, who is creating .trouble in the ranks. He objects to Jiidge Parker as Chairman of the Democratic Convention. The latter has a large following and is almost certain to win.
