INDORSEMENT OF SHIVELY

Contained in Statement for tbe Wil-son-Bryan League. Indianapolis, Ind., March 1 1. —In behalf of the Wilson-Bryan League of Indiana, a statement was issued today by Richard B. Kirby, of Indianapolis, declaring that the league favors the re nomination of Senator B. F. Shively, Q f South Bend. The statement was promoted by the rumor that the league is opposed to feenator Shively. The report gained circulation through gome prominent members of the league, it is said, who are not in harmony with Senator Shively. It ia said that letters have been written to Senator Shively oy members of the league stating their opposition to him.

It is regarded as probable that the league at its first state convention at Marion, Saturday, will endorse Senator Shively for renomina tion by the state convention. The senator, it was said today, probably will be unable to attend the convention -here next week because of his duties in Washington as acting chairman of the Foreign Relations Committee. . .

Some of -3 friends here seem determined to pmce ais name before the convention. but the strong Taggart leaders --ay that he has no desire to ’•eton: - a candidate and that if hi.- n une is presented be will ask that it be Withdrawn rrom consideration by the delegate- As far as Tag-art is’ concerned ;t was staled today that] r ne matter of becoming a senator-' Sal candidate was decided bv him a I month aeo, when he declared him-] eslt m favor of Senator Shively. j A meeting of the democratic state’ committee has been called for to-' morrow to consider ■ a situation in i Fl-o.vd county, where two local organizations have been formed and two sets of delegates elected to the stare convention.
