BALTIMORE, Nd, July 2.--Wood-
row Wilson, governor Of New Jersey,
received the democratic nomination for
president this afternoon. His final
triumph came as the climax Of cul-
rlnatlon Of days OF anxiety and wrang-
ling. The final vote which determined
the contest was taken amidst scenes,
that, for dramatic Intensity, have new
ier been exceeded in any convention
ever held In the United States In the
memory of any man here today.
Wilson, after having been weakened
slightly In last Nights figures became
a potent factor.
But II was not until Senator Bank
head Of Alabama withdrew Under
woods name that the storm broke.
Both the galleries and the floor were
nervous and excited when Bankhead
took the stage. The Clark men had
insisted that they would hold one-thIrd
OF the delegates and block the Wilson

Combine on Underwood.

Following a series OF conferences
that lasted nearly to noon. participat-
ed in by nearly all of the anti-Bryan
forces in the democratic national con-
vention, it was decided that a SUI
breme effort would be made to nomi-
rate today. The choice of the major
iiy of the anti-Bryan leaders is now
Oscar Underwood. He will, il 1t is
found possible to deliver it, get all OF
the Clark strength so soon as it is
shown that there Is absolutely no
hope of the speakers nomination.
With this end in view the Clark
men began a determined effort to re-
claim from the Wilson camp the del
egates who had gone over to the gov
ernor Where the unit rule has pre-
vailed pressure was being brought to
bear to have the majority of the dele

Baltimore Ballot Battle

less. His little band Of followers are
devoted to the Birmingham man and
the surest way to start fight is to
go into their delegation and assert
that the congressman cannot be NOM
mated. The result Is that they refuse
to be delivered to anyone else and
continue to hold the balance of power
in the convention.
The Wilson managers assert that II
the Underwood break comes 1t will be
they who will benefit. They point out
that most of the Underwood support
is from dyed-in-the-wool progressive
states of the south. Released from
their instructions, the Wilsonites say,
the Underwood delegates would come
over almost enmasse to the former col
lssze presid ant 4. a..
! There has been great disappoint-
ment in the Wilson camp because
Roger Sullivan has refused to come
over. All day yesterday the rumors
we're circulated prior to the calling of
1.-THE roll, that this was to be the ballot.
And each time the calling of the state
was followed by the declaration "Illi-
nois. 5s for Clark" Today the report
was renewed with all of the circum-
stantial detail but Roger said nothing.
The poll of the Clark leaders gave
Wilson as high as $50 votes. He re-
ceived Sol votes on the thirty-ninth
ballot.
Then his strength began to slip. On
the forty-second ballot, taken Just be-
fore the convention recessed early to-
day, his strength was 494 votes, and
| it was asserted by Wood Of Michigan,
that on the next ballot he would lose
twenty additional in the Michigan
delegation.
No Stampede.
| AS in the case of Clark all attempts
at a stampede failed. The Wilson
managers have done their best to
bring about a condition whereby they
could start the boom over the crest
of the hill, but to date this convention
has proven stampede-proof The man
who is nominated will be the deliber-
ate choice of the delegates, although
there may be evidence of "spontane.
GUS action" in the manner in which
he is showed over the goal line.
/ There is plenty of dark horse"
| talk among the delegates, but seem
lingly dearth of material to draw
from. John w. Kern of Indiana, poll
ing seldom to exceed two votes on any
single ts''ot-seems the choice of
the majority. His praises are sounded
everywhere, and the impression has
seemed general that an attempt is
sure to be made to put him over, but
so far no concerted effort has been
made to gather to his support any of
the big state delegations. Then the
Gaynor, Foss, O'Gorman and even
Marshall talk continues, but little of
it meets with welcome response from
the delegates.

Bryan, the Puncturer.

The Clark men were fighting des-
perate battle. They charged, and it
was generally conceded, that Bryan
had punctured their boom. SO far
they have found no way of counteract-
ing the Bryan influence. The votes of
New York drove pledged delegates in
to the Wilson camp and as Clark has
deemed it inadyisable to repudiate
the New York support the lost dele
gates seem lost for good. The speak
er's friends have appealed to the
friendship of Congressman Underwood
and the latter's manager on the
ground. They have pointed out that
III the Underwood votes were deliv-
cred in a body to Clark the impetus
would probably carry him over the
line. Underwood, it was understood
today, has been willing to release his
delegates, to go wherever they pleased,
If they believed his cause was hope

message from his place with the Cali

National Committeeman Wood that

ling to Bryan, the Michigan delegation
was going to shift on this final ballot
back to Clark. The news was passed
to Murphy and he dropped back into
his air Of boredom after directing Bell
to be sure that Michigan made no
mistake.
While the political dopesters assert
that both Wilson and Clark are now
out of it, each having demonstrated
his ability to muster the one-third
vote necessary to prevent a nomina-
ton of the other, and neither having
shown any prospects of being able to
muster the needed two-thirds to

Keep up; gave the children a weekly
bath; kept the table set between
meals: did not serve their meals in
courses. but put all the food on the
table at once: confined their social
affairs to evening calls and parties,
and church suppers. at which they
wore the same black silk dress for at
least two seasons: in short. every
woman did only what she could, and
her friends made it easier for her by
doing likewise" :
