| egates crowding into the aisles. Order
was finally secured at lis, and for the
| thirteenth time the clerk began the
calling of the roll.
The roll call began with the same
monotonous repetition that marked
Friday nights voting.
There had been some question as
to whether New York would cast its
80 votes for Clark, but Charles F..
Murphy made his usual announce
ment of 80 for Clark again, and it
was apparent that there would be no
nomination.
The result of the thirteenth ballot
was Clark, 554; Wilson, 1851; I'm
derwood, 1851; Harmon, 90; Mar
shall, 80; Foss, 2; Bryan, /.
This showed a gain Of for Clark.
Wilson gained 21a and Underwood lost
ia Foss was put on the roll with
votes. Kern received no votes and
Bryan was given l.
At 40 the roll call was begun for
the fourteenth time.
During the fourteenth ballot Chair
man James surrendered the gavel to
William Sulzer, of New York and went
to the floor. He conferred with Sen
ator Stone, OF the Clark forces, and

which up to this ballot had been cast
10 for Clark and 3 for Wilson, divided,
Clark, 4; Wilson, IL.

was: Clark, $50; Wilson, 1862; Under

1921; Underwood, 1101a; Harmon,
20; Marshall, 3d. Bryan, 2; Kern, 2.
This gave Clark a loss of one, Will
