BaIIotinq Almost Continuous.

Baltimore, June 20. - The balioting
had been a steady, somewhat monoto
nous performance all day long. Coca
sionally a few Of the uninstructed
states would shift their votes, but the
changes were not great, and IT was ap
parent from the start that the deadlock
was to be dra wn out for a considerable
number of ballots. Five ballots were
taken In the afternoon Of the conven-
ton. Champ Clark had led off with
44Oh votes on the first ballot, which
was taken about 7 O'Clock in the morn
ing after an all nights session. Wood
row Wilson had 324 votes on this first
ballot, and Harmon came next with
las. Underwood had 1171a, Marshall
81 and Governor Baldwin IA. William
j. Bryan started off with 1 vote, but
in the course of the day failed to swell
his total beyond 2.
Governor Baldwin was tho first of
the fayorite sons to be deserted by his
delegates. Connectlcut's IA divided on
the fifth ballot among several caudi-
dates and continued to shift about APP
parently without any set purpose.
The afternoon session of the con
yention began at 4 o'clock, a recess
having been taken after the first bal
lot had disclosed at 7 o'clock in the
morning that no one had the neces-
sary 1854 votes. Within two hours
after the reconvening Of the conven-
ton it was plain to everybody that
nothing definite could be accomplished
unless the leaders got together end
tried to compromise.
A. midnight thG convention was dead
locked after having taken eight bal
lots. The vote on the eighth, which
came shortly before IL o'clock was as
follows: CLARK, 44S1a; Wilson, 351h;
Underwood, 1870; Harmon, 1873; Mar
