There was some gossip about the Hearst
headquarters that several OF the 6avorite
sons would withdraw during the day. but
this has not taken any definite shape at
this hour.
A SERIOUS BLOW.
The Parker managers said last night
that they hoped the instructed states
would hold on the first ballot for their
candidates, but the action OF Pennsyl-
vania is admitted serious blow to the
efforts OF the "favorite sons" and this
morning the air Is full Of suggestions that
Hearst and Olney and Wall should take
stepc 10 relieve the delegates instructed
for them. Whether anything OF this kind
will be done remains TO be seen.
The Parker managers are confident that
the New York man will show a clear
majority on the first ballot and that fol-
lowing the precedent OF all former Demo-
cratic national conventions this showing
would Immediately bring into line a
sufficient number OF states TO give him
the necessary two-thirds OF the total vote
OF the convention,
FOLLOWING THE RECORD.
Such a result, II is urged. would be
simply following the historic record OF
the party at their national conclaves
IL Is practically conceded that the Cor
man vote. as a result OF Pennsylvania s
action. will be cast on the initial ballot
for Parker. II this Is followed by like
action on the part OF an yother OF the

may prove. az some OF the leaders assert
in an assured nomination before the con-
vention assemblies tomorrow.
Senator German has never been for
mslly in It," was a reply Senator Henry
