TALLY VOTED D TO
UNSEAT WILSON
DELEGATES

Baltimore, Jue 27-The credential
committee late yesterday afternoon
overturned the action of the National
Committee and gave the ten seats
from South Dakota to Clark delegates
in the first actual test of strength be-
tween the Wilson and anti-Wilson
forces. Tally, the Mississippi men,
Der voted for the Clark contestant.
By vote of 28 to 23 the committee
unseated the ten Wilson delegates
who had received the highest vote in
the State primaries June and gave
the seats to the Clark delegation head
ed by Andrew e. Lee. This was one
of two delegations that ran under the
Clark banner, their combined vote ex-
ceeding that of the Wilson ticket.
The overthrow of the Wilson dele
gates who had been seated by the Ma
tional Committee came as a surprise
to the Wilson forces. 1t was the first
case in which the National Committee
was reversed and the close vote of 28
to 23 gave the Clark forces but little
to spare in their fight to seat their
contesting delegations.

Fight is Between
Wilson and Clark
GREAT DEMONSTRATION FOR NEW JERSEY GOVERNOR DAzEp
"PREEDYToRY" GANG ENTHUSIASM RAMPANT
(By F. d. Lander.)

Convention Hall, Baltimore, June o..
Every little movement has a mean
ing all its own Wilson stock is
strong and rising. The great demon
stration given for him last night dazed
the NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. gang.
New York's vote was Kissed in the
convention in order to let the country
know where Ryan stands on every
proposition. Bryan grows stronger
every hour, not as a candidate but as
the controlling force of the convention.
The fight is clearly between Wilson
and Clark and Clark cannot win unless
Bryan forgives him for Tuesdays
throw down.
Harmon is out of it. Underwood is
a possibility, but no more so than
Kern or Gaynor or half a dozen others.
State delegations are hearing by wire
from their constituents at home and
the trend of it all is towards Wilson.
During the Wilson demonstration
last night John Sharp Williams stood
on the speakers stand and waved his
old white felt hat in answer to a CUES
tion from Gov. Brewer, put to Will
liams, while he was speaking.
Williams replied, "How childish,
pure and simple that question is" and
Mr.. Brewer sat down amid the shouts
and jeers of the galleries and the gal
leries by the way are overwhelmingly
for Wilson, largely so because they
have learned that Bryan is.
The weather is cool and delightful
in the hall and for the first time
crowded beyond capacity, thousands
holding general admission tickets be-
ing turned away. There is intense
excitement and Wilson enthusiasm
rampant.
The majority report of the commit
tee on Credentials favored Clark. The
day and night will be consumed by

ALLEGED TO-HAVE STOLEN
OWN HORSE, ANOTHER'S OK

Early Wednesday morning A. w. Ar
mold came into Hattiesburg driving
big fat OK, for which he found ready
sale at local butchers. When he
got his pay he stepped off at lively
pace. telling the butcher he had other
oxen to sell and was going down the
street to find another customer.
Shortly after reaching his office
Sheriff J. D. Bennett received.a phone
message from Carruth Bros, at Coral,
advising that someone had stolen a
horse belonging to A. w. Arnold and
had driven on an OK the property or
Henry Sumrall, The sheriff started
an investigation and soon learned that
Bryant Bros, had bought an OK an
swering the description given and that
Arnold went in direction indicated
by them. Officers thought they were on
his trail and they followed it to Ellis
vile. Later. they learned that Arnold

RRYANs DEFEAT Is ATTRIBUTED vARDA.
MAN THE GOVERNOR.

Baltimore, June 27-As a shield
against opportunities, the members of
the Mississippi delegation agreed fig
uratively to throw into outer darkness
that one among them who expressed
a second choice. Gov. Brewer said
it was not formal vote, but a tacit
understanding that the delegation
should stand pat for Underwood and
not even acknowledge the possibility
of there arising any necessity for
choosing between any of the other
candidates.
The Governor made no secret of his
belief that the chastisement of Bry-
an Tuesday in the fight for the tenn
porary Craftsmanship, was due to Mis-
sissippi's efforts in behalf of Parker.
He admitted that Mississippians, af-
ter agreeing to line up for Parker,
went out to get votes for the New
Workers, Notwithstanding the fact that
for sixteen years the two leaders of
the delegation have been devoted fol-

DEMOCRATS TO BALLOT FOR PRESIDENTIAL
NOMINEE TODAY WITH OUTCOME UNCERTAIN
URGE BOND ISSUE
FOR GOOD ROADS
~ 49,
Commercial Club Discusses Matter,
Which is Referred to
Committee

At the meeting of thte Commercial
Club Tuesday night, the question of
good roads was proposed and the ar
ticle recently published in the News,
signed Citizen" was discussed. The
argument however, was all directed
towards emphasing the necessity for
liberal bond issue, as the only cor
rect way to get results in any exten-
sive effort at road building.
The great value of good roads, to
the farmer was pointetd out, and in
view of the certainty that Forrest
county farmers, are we'll advised, and
generally thoroughly convinced that
good roads means the enhancement in
value of everything they own or pro-
duce, from a dozen eggs to the roof
that shelters his family, it was claim
ed that but little opposition would be
encountered in an effort to carry an
election in the county favoring large
bond issue with which to build the
roads needed to make this county one
the best in the state of Mississippi.
The matter after being discussed
was referred to the good roads COM
mittee with request for immediate ac-
tion.

lowers of the Nebraskan. They got
five votes in Tennessee, some in
Florida, some in Georgia, some in
North Carolina, and helped make the
Alabama delegation stand up for Park
er, except a small section of it.
While Senator Elect vardaman
would not admit that there had been
any thought of revenge when Missis-
sippi voted against Bryan, n,everybody
in Baltimore now believes the Nebras-
kan can charge his discontinue to the
Mississippians. They cast their own
votes solidly against him. Gov. Brew
er believes they got five votes for
Parker in Tennessee and some in
other States mentioned.
Inasmuch as thirty-five votes taken
from Parker and given to Bryan
would have made the latter the tenn
porary chairman, it is believable that
TIE irritation resulting from Bryan's
treatment of Messrs. Vardaman and
Brewer had a wider effect than any
body thought it possibly could

(By Associated PreSS.)

Baltimore, June 27.-Deelgates filed
into the Democratic convention this
morning prepared for a long, excited
session, which it was expected would
reach a climax this evening in the
naming the Democratic standard
bearer in the presidential fight.
1t is practically certain several bal
lots will be necessary and the session
may ertend far into the night It
appeared to be the concensus of opin-
ion that the nomination lay between
Wilson, Clark and Bryan. Dark
horse" talk died away little.
Friends of Woodrow Wilson ap-
preached the crucial test with greater
confidence than they have yet mani
tested. They regard the overthrow of
the unit rule by the convention last
night as significant of final outcome.
However the supporters of Clark are
claiming the nomination with as much
outward confidence as ever.

Baltimore. Jun 27-The progress
sives in the democratic national con-
vention claimed notable voctory last
night when they carried a motion alb
rogating the rule by which some
state delegations were bound to cast
their votes as unit. The conven-
tion, by vote of 565 IL to 491 IL
voted that no state delegation should
be bound by the unit rule control ex-
cept in such cases where the state Law
is mandatory on the subject.
The Wilson supporters in the con-
vention, who earlier in the evening
carried on a demonstration lasting
thirty-three minutes, regarder the
vote as distinctly favoring their can
didate and the Wilson boom has been
growing throughout the day.
Wilson gained and Harmon lost
eighteen votes from Ohio as a result
of the fight.
1t is said abrogation OF the ruId
might lead to break in other dcleea-
tions and this left the presidential
nomination race in greater doubt than
ever.
New York's solid block or ninety
votes was cast in favor Of continuing

split 20 to in favor of the unit rule
and this result was received with

When Nebraska voted solidly for

The fight on the unit rule carried
the evening session well along toward
midnight.
The report Of the committee on cre-1
dentials was then received. As there
was majority report requiring a dis
cussion adjournment was decided ND

Bryan said he was "much pleased.

South Dakota Delegates Cause Warm
Fiqht.


A lively fight was precipitated over
the report of the Credentials commit
tee. A majority of the report unseat-
ed ten Wilson delegates from South
Dakota, giving their places to Clark
men. The minority report was read
his morning putting the question up
the convention. The Credentials
d nmittee reports also dealt with fac
ti6nal troubles in several states, in
cluding the big row in Illinois between
the Hearst-Harrison and Sullivan fac
tions. Permanent organization and
nominating speeches are expected
about four o'clock.
Senator Luke Lea, Bryan leader,
took the Clark men to task for what
he termed "The South Dakota steal"
In the South Dakota primary the Will
son ticket won, but "a majority of the
Credentials committee based their ac-
ton in unseating Wilson's delegates
upon the claim that the two Clark
tickets had together polled more votes
than the Wilson ticket The Clark
delegation, seated by the Credentials
comlsittee, apeared on the South Da-
kota ballot under the head, Wilson
Clark Bryan-D Democracy" 1t secured
four hundred votes less than the Will
son ticket.
Crowds rushed the convention hall
and jammed the hall.
It is estimated that thousands of
nen-ticket holders gained admission.
Chairman Grain of the local commit
tee said the ushers and doorkeepers
were helpless on account of a lack
of organization and the situation was
dangerous.
A Missouri delegate began tacking
Clark Autographs to state standards.
He placarded California, Colorado,
Wyoming and Arkansas, when the
shout, "Tear 1t down" broke. In a
fash the Autographs were stripped
from the Wyoming and Arkansas
standards. Anti-Clark forces raised a
yell of triumph
