different ballots.
The Beginning Of the End.
The withdrawal Of Oscar w. Under.
wood of Alabama from the presiden.
tial contest, after the forty-hsth
ballot, made Woodrow Wilson TIC
presidential nominee OF the Democratic.
party.
The forty-sixth ballot ended a strug.
gle unprecedented for bitterness in
Democratic annals. After the second
ballot of the day Woodrow Wilson was
within less .han 100 votes of the nomi.
nation. Either Charles F. Murphy o.
Oscar w. Underwood by saying the
word could nominate him. Why Muir.
ply held out remained a mystery. The
New York delegates in caucus just be-
fore the convention opened decided to
stick to Clark.
After two ballots Thomas F. Ryan,
as a member of the Virginia delega.
ton, was supporting Wilson. Thomas
Taggart of Indiana was already in the
Wilson column. Roger Sullivan went
over with his flfty-eight Illinois votes.
The only man left of the old combina.
ton was Murphy. The New York
delegation insisted, even after Wilson
had picked up 1875 votes on two roll
calls, that he was at his high water
mark and could not be showed any
farther.
cIark's Vote Decreasing.
New York's ninety votes. by going
to Wilson, would settle the thing be-
yond question. Underwood still had
more than twenty votes after the
second roll call. BY releasing them
he could name the candidate. After
the first roll call the Clark vote was
less than one-third of the convention
and therefore no longer in a position
to maintain the deadlock without as
sistance.
The forty-flfth ballot showed Wilson
still making gains and then Senator
Bankhead took the platform and for
mally withdrew Mr.. Underwood's
! name
MIR. Underwood directs me to with
draw his name from this convention"
said Bankhead, amid impressive ST.
lence, adding tribute of thanks from
Underwood for the sincere and loyal
support given him.. He added that all
his friends were now at liberty to
vote for whom they pleased.
| Senator Bankhead was followed by
Senator Stone. who formally released
all the Clark delegates, and then it
seemed inevitable that the nomination
of Wilson would come by reclamation.
Stone said delegations were per-
fectly free to vote for whom they
choose. But the Missouri delegation
would vote for Clark on all ballots re-
gardless of what others might do.
Mayor FITZGERALD then took the plat
form and withdrew the name OF, Gov
ernor Floss.
The total vote for Wilson was 900.
Clark received "a, and Harmon T..

Baltimore, July 3.-For president,
Governor Woodrow Wilson OF New
Jersey: for vice president, Governor
Thomas r Marshall of Indiana. This
was the ticket completed by the Demo
cratic national convention at 1856
q. m.
The nomination of Governor Mar
shall for vice president came as some
thing OF surprise, for when the
nights balloting for vice president be-
gan it seemed that the Bryan-Wilson
contingent in the convention had def
nitely settled upon Governor John E.
Burke of North Dakota.
There was not much of a fight how
ever, and when two ballots disclosed
Marshall easily in the lead Governor
Burke's name was withdrawn and
Marshall was proclaimed the nominee
by reclamation. A minute later the
convention had adjourned sine die.

Governor Wilson was nominated at
the afternoon session on the forty

tically everything else in Baltimore
were put through.
When the District of Columbia was
reached one of the delegates rose and
proposed William J. Bryan as vice
presidential candidate. A roar swept
the hall as the name was mentioned.
Bryan, sitting quiet in his seat in
the Nebraska section, was Immediate
ly surrounded by group of support
ers urging him to speak. For time
he refused, sitting unmoved in the
midst of the storm of disorder. But
the uproar increased and finally Bry.
an climbed upon his chair.
"Take the platform. Take the plat
form shouted the delegates"
Surrounded by small group Bryan
made his way to the stage to deliver
his valedictory.
AS Bryan concluded the roll call on
the vice presidential nomination was
ordered.
Vote Scattered on First Ballot.
The ballot showed widely scat
tered vote and it was apparent early
in the roll call that. there would be
no nomination on the first ballot. Cen
orally the anti-Bryan delegates were
inclined to support Marshall, but the
lines were not sharply drawn.
The Indianan took the lead, how
ever, from the start and many of the
Wilson Bryan states cast their votes
for him.
The straight Wilson vote generally
went to Burke or Chamberlain.
The first ballot on the vice presi-
Dental nomination gave Marshall 3S9,
Burke 305s5, Chamberlain 1877. Tho
remainder of the vote was scattered
among native sons.
The result of the second ballot was
announced: Marshall 645h. Burke

water gradually and stirring It until
is is smooth, thick creamy body.
Add a pint Of crude carbol;c acid for

on by hand, 1t needs only little more

applied by a spray pump, much more
water Is needed, and the wash must
be strained through a cloth. The
