The feature of last nights session
was a change on the tenth ballot of
New York's 90 votes from Harmon to
Clark. When Charles F. Murphy an
nounced the vote of the Empire state
there was a tremendous demonstra-
tion by the Clark forces, who grabbed
Missouri's standard, and, followed by
the Arkansas, Iowa, Kansas, Ken
lucky and many other state delega-
tions, swung into a wild scramble and
paraded the hall. Quiet was restored
after 21 minutes, and Murphy again
announced New York, "Eighty-one
for Clark, one for Underwood and
eight for Wilson"
Chairman James ruled, however
that New York was bound by the unit
rule and her 80 votes would all gt
for Clark.
The tenth ballot also precipitatec
a Wilson demonstration when Okla
homa's vote was announced, Bryan
entering the hall in the midst of tn,
uproar and being cheered wildly. On
this ballot Clark reached his higl
mark for the night, receiving 55o
votes, a majority of the convention
but 10 short of the necessary two
thirds. The vote for the other candi
dates on this ballot was as follows
Wilson, $50 1-2; Underwood, 1T 1-2
Harmon, 81; Marshall, 81; Bryan,
Kern, 1.
On the eleventh ballot, Clark los
two and Wilson gained four.
On the final ballot before adjourn
ment, Clark lost seven from his higl
mark and Wilson lost one-half from
the eleventh ballot.
At 3:05 adjournment was taker

On the fourteenth ballot, BRYAN
voted for Wilson and bitterly assailed
Clark.
Bryan said he would not vote for
Clark as long as New York, with Bel
mont and Ryan, support him.
On all previous ballots, Bryan had
been voting for Clark, who carried
the Nebraska primaries over Wilson
and Harmon.
There were no indications of a Sc
rious break in either Clark, Wilson or
Underwood forces.
Wilson'S vote alone of the four
teenth ballot is sufficient to prevent
the nomination going to Clark. unless
a portion of it leaves the New JERSEY

 Jump Ball Question Tabled.
 The question of the abolishment of the jump shot, which went over from Wednesday, was brought up and Prof. Jacobus again appeared as its cham pion. During the present tournament, he said, there had been the finest eX- hibitions of recovery by the use Of this shot and he called attention to the two especially remarkable in- stances when jump was made over a ball in the center cage and out the other side. He favored leaving the matter for each individual club to 6a- eide and did not believe that they should bind every club and player in the country by their decision. Moth ing appeals to the crowd like a good jump shot, added the professor. On motion of Dr. B. R. Veasey it was voted to lay the question on the table.
 J. c. Kirk moved that the meeting | be adjourned subject to the call of ! President Williamson, and this was done after a session of three-quarters | of an hour.
 Prof Jacobus then issued a call for voluntary offerings, even though he admitted that he had had to borrow money to come to the tournament His call met with a general and i'm | mediate response

The height of interest and enthusi- asm in the National Roque association tournament week was reached on Fri day evening. when the combined at traction of the Van Wickle medal play, a band concert and the programme of speeches by the mayor of the city and officers of the association, frightened by the festive observance of watermelon night, drew near five hundred to the courts on Rockwell street. Champion Eddie Clark of Springfield, challenger for the first Van Wickle medal, con tinued his winning form and after hard fought battle, in which for the greater part of the time the odds were against him, took the fourth and de- ciding game from Horace T.
