DEWEYS NAME WAS KISSED
VIRGINIA DEMOCRATS DO NOT LIKE
HIS CANDIDACY.
State Convention at Norfolk Divided
on Question of a COnstitu-
tional Convention.

Special Dispatch to The Evening Star
NORFOLK, Va, May 2.-The democratic
state convention was called to order at
noon. During the two days of its contin
uance a battle royal will be fought for
constitutional convention. The latent op
position which is developing indicates that
the advocates of the new constitution will
have all they can do to win. In any event,
the fight will be over the form of the con-
vention's Endorsement Of the constitutional
Issue and the time for holding the conven-
ton. which, it is claimed by its best friends
should come after the presidential election.
AT ITO pm. the convention, after effec;ing
a temporary organization, adjourned until
3 o'clock
a eulogistic reference to Dewey was
hissed.
Very late last night sudden activity was
developed by opponents of the constitu-
tional convention.
1t has been stated all the time that the
democratic representatives from Virginia
opposed the convention, and it is to their
influence that the recent activity Is due
For some reason unknown to the iayman
they acted as If they believed they could
win. and all matters were made secondary
to this.
The friends of the constitutional conven-
tion were by no means taken unawares
however, and at once took steps to fore
stall any move which might prove hurtful
to them. They acted promptly and almost
as unit. the difference of opinion be-
tween their leaders being as to the method
OF procedure rather than what they wanted
to do. Therefore it was that about IL 80
o clock last night there was a representa-
tive gathering at a meeting held in the
main parlOr of the hotel, when Eugene
Withers of Danville was made chairman
and ]. H. Lindsay of Charlottesville was
made secretary.
The purpose being to formulate the best
plan to have their convictions carried out
in the convention today, the matter was
discussed at some length, when it was de-
cided TO appoint two representatives from
each district Of the state to act as q steer
ing committee today. Mr.. GLASS; who
spoke first, said that the people wanted a
constitutional convention, and their rep
resentatives should see that their wishes
were carried out as to it being made
party issue. He said that this had already
been done by the republican party at their
state convention recently held in this city
when they unanimously determined against
1t. When he had concluded Senator Daniel
was called on The senator said that the
previous speaker had uttered his sentiments
on the subject. and urged patience and for
bearance on the part of the friends of the
revision. He said that 1t was little diff
ference Of opinion among friends but that
a constitutional convention must declare in
favor OF 1t in unmistakable terms.

by the Htnda started down the canal for

went forward and showed keen interest in
the canal, commenting several times on its
immense possibilities. Shortly afer -
l.
an enthusiastic welcome was given the
admiral by large crowd gathered along
the banks of the canal and at the controli-
ing works, and the small police force had

appointment was tantamount to exile, and
who was reported April 30 to have mystic

sons, got safely out of Constantinople on
board the Egyptian steamer Rubattini, en-
route for Europe. 1t develops that when
lsmail kemal Bey disappeared he boarded
the British gunboat Salamander and claimed
an asylum, which was Immediately granted
to him. The British embassy then Informed
the palace authorities of this fact, adding
that lsmail desired 10 go abroad The sui

main IN Turkey, to go to Tripoli or abroad.

tions to the Publication.
