MANY CANDIDATES
FOR SECOND PLACE

BALTIMORE, June 2S.--Vice presiden-
tial candidates and their supporters are
here though thus far they have kept In
the background. There Is evidence that
at least half dozen booms are ready
for inspection soon as the delegates
nominate candidate for president.
The leaders heretofore have been too
much occupied with other matters for
serious discussion of National Commit
teeman Daniels's proposition that the
candidate receiving next 10 the highest
number of ballots for president, accent
the Vice presidential nomination
There was renewed talk today among
the Wilson men OF trying to persuade
Representative Underwood of Alabama a
presidential candidate. 10 take second
place on a ticket with the New Jersey
governor Such A combination, thew said
would be ideal from every standpoint
The friends OF Mayor Preston OF Balti-
more have spared no efforts to advance
his candidacy.
New York has three candidates for the
vice prcsidency-all representatives in
congress. William S. Redfield Francis
Burton Harrison and William Sulzer head
of the house foreign affairs committee
Governor Dix OF New York has been
looked upon a possible candidate for
the vice presidency. but his friends insist
lie was sincere in his recent statement
that he was a candidate for nothing ex-
ccpt re- election.

Vardaman of Mississippi. after confer,
ence with Clark Howell OF Georgia and
others, tonight unsucccssfuliy sought to
have William J. Bryan assent to the
naming OF Bryan as permanent chairman
Of the Democratic national convention.
Vardaman had authoritatively learned
from Leader Murphy and Chairman Mack
Of the national committee that Judge
Parkers friends would vote Tor Bryan
for permanent chairman.
The effort WAS made as an attempt AT
solution OF the temporary chairmanship
problem. Vardaman went TO Bryan and
tried 10 effect a compromise on the
temporary craftsmanship by informing the
Nebraska leader that all OF Judge Par
ker's friends had agreed TO name Bryan
as permanent chairman,
Mr.. Bryan and Vardaman have been
close friends for many years. Fardsman
later told his friends that when he made
the suggestion to Bryan the latter's man
ner became so friGid that Vardeman
picked up his hat and started to leave
the room. Then he turned to Mr.. Bryan.
~ thought" he said, Our personal and
political relations were intimate enough
to permit me to talk about the matter
to you"
Putting his hands on. Vardaman's
shoulders. Bryan told the former COVER
nor of Mississippi that he did not mean
to offend him, Then the two talked over
the matter. but without result.
Vardaman at first mentioned The sug-
eestion to Howell. Howell assented, add :
ing that Parker's friends would agree to
IT, and Vardamsn felt sure that he had
the situation well in hand.

The Parker forces charged TODAY that
reports that Senator Stone OF Missouri
had told his friends they must not antag-
onize Mr. Bryan while urging the candi-
dacy OF Speaker Clark were set afioat to
undermine the strength of Judge Parker.
Il have never talked with any one

Mr.. Clark.
II was authoritativey stated that while
the Clark leaders expected that al! dele

carry out their instructions on the presi-
Dental nomination they were not certain
how the convention would vote on col

cratic national committee will meet to-
morrow noon to pass upon the selection
OF Alton B. Parker for temporary chair
man OF the national convention. What
candidate for craftsmanship honors the
Bryan and Wilson forces will name 10
oppose Parker was in doubt tonight but
1t Is expected some choice will be made
by morning.
The names OF Senator Kern Of Indiana
and Representative Henry Of Texas were
most talked about tonight az The likely
opponents OF the New York iurist.
The friends OF Mr.. Bryan claimed that
the national committee would be about
evenly divided. while National Chairman
Mack again asserted that judge Parker
would have safe majority.
Suggestions We're made In authoritative
quarters tonight that a movement would
be started to name Mr.. Bryan as perma- :
nent chairman. but Mr.. Bryan's friends
said the Nebraskan was not looking for
the honor.
That Mr.. Bryan would be a member
or the committee on resolutions, and that
he Will play no small part in drafting the
platform, was conceded.
National committeeman favorins Par
ker for temporary chairman conferred
throughout the day, They said nothing
had developed to change their plan To
have Parkcr's name presented TO The con-
vention.
