TIMES BIREAV, AT STATU CAPITA!,. Indianapolis, Ind., July 9. If Wtl

Great Commoner." the "Peerless Leader," comes to Indiana this year

The Indiana delegation broke away from Governor Marshall yesterday on the word from Judge Andrew A- Adams of the appellate court, who was the governor's spokesman on the delegation. Judge Adams told the Indiana delegates that it was apparent that the governor could not be nominated, and he released them from their Instructions. This action was taken. It is said, after the delegation had been bombarded with a rapid fire of telegrams from democrats all over Indiana urging the delegates to drop Marshall and go to Wilson. It is said that scores of such telegrams were received by the delegates, and that this was largely responsible for the break from h governor. It had been, expected all along that when the break came It would send practically all of the Indiana delegates to the New Jersey candidate, but there had been so much confusion and uncertainty in the deadlock that It was a bit uncertain Just what would happen. Tom Taggart had

They ay that If Bryan had not set himself up as the dictator of the convention Marshall might have made . better progress toward the goal of nomination. One man who has been a stalwart friends of the governor said last night that It was Bryan that put the Marshall boom out of business. "Governor Marshall has always been an admirer of Bryan." he said, "and has been one of his strong supporters. But Bryan did not return the god feeling in kind, when he sent that telegram to Governor Mar-

He wants to elect the democratic state ticket, wTiether the democrats elect a president or not. He wants to hold control of the state organisation. He learned that the democrats of Indiana favor Wilson and not Clark. There was but one thing for him to do to make good at home, and that was to go 40 Wilson. And now that he has done it it will be interesting to watch him and ee how he handles the party and its organisation when he gets back home. Undoubtedly he will have a firmer hold than ever if he continues to support Wilson. But if he wavers he will get what is coming to him on his re-
