Conservatives Winners
of Unknown Votes.

1t will be noted that this unknown
quantity vote gave to Wilson "a l-2
votes, to the combined Harmon and
Underwood. which may be taken col
lectively as the conservative element,
100 .. and to Clark, g. The conserva-
tive vote from the unknown list there
fore, becomes of the utmost Importance
in making subsequent calculations as
to what can take place in event of a
long drawn out combat.
AS strong factor in this calculation
it must be considered that large ele-
ment of the delegates desire victory and
harmony without so much regard to
personal issues Tennessee strikingly
illustrates this element on the first bal
lot when she cast six votes each for
Clark, Wilson Harmon and Under
wood dividing exactly between the
radical and the conservative wings Of
the party voice.
AS for the New York vote. it can be
taken as no criterion Of the future ac-
ton of the state. Undoubtedly it rep
resented the sentiment of the controu-
ing factors in the delegation. Possibly
It did not represent the political judg-
ment of the same leaders They are
free to throw the vote any way they
please, and ii is assured beyond the
question of any man that IL will be
thrown in subsequent ballots in that
direction which viii most surely tend to
defeat Mr. Bryan, Mr. Wilson and all
that is allied with that element.
An exact tWo-thirds Of the total vote
in the convention is 725 ID ON al

fractional votes have appeared in the

BRYAN S Attack
Changes Horizon.

prvan's attack on the three great
eranciers changed the entire horizon
nan has been called the principal Will
snn man behind the money. The New
Jersey governor was his first choice
and his views were shared by Morgan
and Belmont.
In case Wilson proved unsuccessful
e is generally admitted that Ryan
boped his delegates would hold toseth-
,lth the idea of blocking any other
gto.dine candidate When it should be-
tcorne necessary to look for dark horse
Pyan hoped to be able to throw the
wilson strength to Gaynor
The New York mayor has done in
,.,nable service to Ryan, Morgan and
belmont. Most of the delegates are
onversant with these facts and the
consensus of opinion is that Wilson's
cbances have faded away along with
those Of Gaynor.
d., The vote of the New York delegation
" Harmon caused considerable
omusement, the admission being made
that the willy boss, Charles NJ Muir
nh, had something UP his sleeve IN
the way of a dark horse.
