Underwood's Chances Are As ( od Or Better Than They Have EOer n-Undercurrent Strong
 For Aldbdnlian
WILSON HAS GAINED ALL
 THE VOTES THAT HE CAN GET
New York Refuses To Be Party to Any of Byans Schemes Kern May Develop Some Strength-Wilson Probably Will Accept Vice Presidency With Underwood When He Abandons Hope of Getting
 Nomination Himself

Baltimore June 29-( Special )-The situation at adjourn tonight practically the outlined in the story signed Brace early this evening It is chaotic and predict with any degree of certainty the ultimate result
 Underwoods chances good better than they ever been.
 During the last ballots Clark lost strength Wilson gained opinion tonight that these ballots gave Will all the lie get the convention It is said that Bryan and his followers already tired of Wilson, propose put of Kern of Indiana before tie convention Monday The Indiana will change from Marshall to Kern
 Every effort made late tonight get New York agree Kern New York has positively refused will he party any of Bryans schemes Kern however, will develop some strength may both from Clark Wilson in tue west
 Bryans purpose s of course to mudde the convention until the front himself He either proposes have the nominaiion whom he control
 In both of these he will fail.
 The best opinion is that the balotng will continue through Monday probably Tuesday before nomination made.
 In the meantime Underwood has maintained his full strength and the growing stronger every for him. New York Massachusetts and Connecticut eager vote for him and when it finally developed that neither Wilson, Clark Kern get it. there will be nothing else the convention to do but to nominate Underwood
 Underwood has enemies. It is true the Clark people are bit ffed with him they claim Underwood vote thrown Clark last night would nominated the Mssonran But that Wilson has developed such strength the Clark people in better mor toward Underwood and will probably go to him.
 The Wilson people tonight have all manner of over lures to the Underwood delegates trying make trade to Underwood vice president for the ticket with Wilson
 The reply has been, sNominate Underwood for President and Wilson for vice president This may be the final result
 It is believed when Wilson finds he cannot get the presi dentia nomination he will be willing get that vice pres dent ticket with Underwood
 This is the situation it is tonight-the actual facts
 One who reads The Age Herald predict the final result as I can E. w. BARRETT

 Speaker Clark began at 554 and fas. to 4634, loss ol 901a votes. The anti-Clark leaders in the convention called attention to the fact that this almost exactly offset the 90 votes given to Clark by the New York delegation. Breaks to Governor Wilson were com ing from many delegations as the bal. loting closed His managers believed that once he had oyertaken Speaker Clark the switching of delegates would become general.
 The Clark forces plan to make a desperate effort tomorrow to win back some Of the delegates lost today and in this work they probably will have the persnal direction of the speaker himself. The Wilson forces in the meantime expect to fight not only to hold their gains Of today but to induce more to desert the other candidates.

TARIFF BOARD GOES
 OUT OF EXISTENCE

Washington, June 29.-The tariff board went out of existence today be- cause Congress has refused further money for it's work. The five mem bers. headed by Chairman Henry c Emery Informed the President of the boards most recent work. This con- sisted of a cursory examination of the leather industry, cost of sugar grow ing in Louisiana and glossaries of the leather and silk schedules. This in- completed data was turned over to the President for the use of any tariff re- vision agency.

nv HUCH w. RonERrs

Baltimore, June 29.--(special.)-o adjournment after the twenty sixth ball lot, to find the needle in the haystaek would be simple when compared to the task of predicting with accuracy the nominee of the democratic convention. Wilson looks best. but without com- promise he cannot reach 725 1-s. The day was a strenuous one of balloung in which Clarks star descended and Wilson's assumed a brighter and more hopeful hue
 On the twenty-second ballot Cover nor Harmon retired to return later, and Governor Foss entered. Underwood, with only one significant spurt, re- mained steady throughout the session,
 Marshall retained his 30 Indiana bal lots
The Birmingham age-herald., 1912-06-30

Bryan has been really the. only speaker of the convention. He has popped up whenever opportunity presented. He is the Roosevelt of the exhibition, each mo- ment and upon each occasion trying to bring about complication. When Clark developed extraordinary strength he bounded in to explain his vote and tossed the iron collar of Tanimany and preda tory wealth about his neck and charac- terized him as having gone over to the interests He st1mped him with the scar let letter aud asSce fine convention to pAuee itself of his sind and of any kind that Murphy and the New York delega- ton would accept
 Bryan was hissed and hooted, but never theless he stamped the death mark upon the aspirations of the Missourian.

Foss in the Ring

On the twenty-sixth ballot four of the eight underwood North Carolina votes returned. Thus encouraged the Alabamans gained for Underwood a share of the demonstration precipitated by the New Jersey delegates when Sem ator Rayner voted for Wilson The riot gave Massachusetts an opportunity to put Foss into the thick of the fight. There are many now who believe that the latter candidate has come to stay.
 The gradual gains of Wilson are probably attributable to the charge of MT Bryan that Clark Is acting in con junction with the reaetionaries, for the Nebrask has his hand on the throttle
The Birmingham age-herald., 1912-06-30

Bryan didn't urge Wilson. but an- nounced he would vote for him.
 Some two score more votes went with him to Wilson, but he was careful not to attempt to make 1t more. And so 1t goes onto deadlock.
 Bryan seems to have the very old devil in him. He is liable to knife Wilson at any minute. About Underwood he has said nothing. No one has asked him. They know how he has felt. He would knife the Alabamian at the first opportunity
 Assit is now, New York and Massachu- setts and Connecticut are ready to go to Underwood at any moment. They want new southern states to lead off. Texas and South Carolina want to vote for Un- desw wood, but they are bound by Wilson instructions Virginia wants to go solIdly for him, but the Wilson delegates fear to make a change while Wilson ia so strong. It is the same in Tennessee.
 So there you have it. Of the candidates being voted for Underwood seems the only possible one who can draw the necessary number to be nominated.
 Let us all keep pulling and we may pull 
 him through.

Bryan's Interruption

1ne lines are 0TdNI, the kaDTeS lldhlli the cannot boom and the spectacular bat tie of the political century is on, The dull monotony of desultory firing was in- terrupted only when Bryan made his spec tacular play toward creating stampede in the interest of Wilson. This play con sisted of an explanation of the reason why he disregarded his instructions to vote for the houn' dawg and obeyed his desire to bolt to the Jersey mosquito. The explanation was made in course of "a long speech in which the Nebraskan repeated his previous assaults against Tammany and predatory wealth, and very cleverly with the assistance Of Will son shouters avoided the necessity of committing himself to a promise to sup port the nominee of the convention.
 Detection of Kansas
 The effect of Bryan's efforts to line up Clark with the alleged tools of Wall street and the servants of predatory wealth and thereby deprive him of his progressive" delegates was to stampede Montana on the one hand, and solidIfy sClarks strength on the other. with the net result that Wilson gained one vote and Clark lost one. The trick apparent- ly failed, although in the twentieth ballot occurred the defection of Kansas
 In the eighteenth ballot there occurred
 
 when Tennessees four Underwood votes were swollen to 15h.
 In the belief that on subsequent ballots the tide would rush to the Aiabamian the delegates from Alabama. Georgia, Florida and Mississippi gave voice. They foresaw in the loss of Clark of l6 votes the pros pat of Underwood forging to the fofe as the choef competitor of Wilson. On the nineteenth ballot Connecticut in- creased It's Underwood vote 10 eight. North Carolina did likewise. Half a vote was gained in Virginia In the nineteenth Underwoods S total reached it's highest level to that period-l30. In the nineteenth the announcement of Brvans vote as the possible dark horse of the Wilsonites was applauded.
 The approach of Tnderwoods s psycllo- logical moment was made more ap- parent in the twentieth. When Kansas abandoned Clark and hastened to Wilson.
 However. Tennessee cut down it's 15 Un- derwood votes to 2iz Massachusetts one for Foss was significant. The break In some direction was approaching Just VI

ittHhHE tuC tdtuNutEH The manipulators are planning to turn monstrous tricks tomorrow in or- der that a nomination may be had early Monday.
 Overtures from both leading candi- dates carrying offers of the vice pres idential nomination have been rejected today by Mir. Underwood.
 The indications are that several days of next week will be required to name candidate. Followers of the leaders have their backs up. For that reason Underworld chance is as good as ever and as good as that of either of the leaders.
 The feature of the day was the SUI preme domination of Bryan.
 Today's session of the convention found the small but potent Underwood nucleui confident that the Alabamlan would bt given an opportunity to achieve the pres
 dency.
 It was figured that when the Clark cohorts encouraged, by the vote of Tam many and a sensational demonstration | failed to create n stampede and secure the nomination, and they proved unequal tc the emergency in the psychological mo- ment their failure 1t was believed. would bring into play the memorable law oi retribution.
 | Therefore, it was thought that Tam many would eventually throw it's strength | to Underwood. Then would have ar rived the opportunity of the Alabama 1 statesman.
 If Indiana drops Marshall, If Connect,- cut throws its entire vote with Tam nhny's If Maryland rushes to the stand ard, and if the solid south does it duty then Underwood will land. Otherwise he will have failed as did Clark lasi
