BALTIMORE, June 22.-The
committee.on arrangements of the
national Committee by a vote of
eight out of fifteen selected Alton
B. Parker. of New York, to present
TO the national committee for tenn
porary chairman of the national
convention if the full committee
should concur.
Ii the full committee concurs on
Monday Judge Parker will be the
temporary chairman Of the con-
vention unless the convention by
vote should reject the committees
recommendation and CHOOSE an
other temporary chairman, as the
Roosevelt people endeavored to do
at Chicago.
Whatever may be made of the
incident, l offer the assurance that
it has no special significance 1t
was largely done through the will7
ingness of this subcommittee to
oblige Chairman Mack, who
strongly urged the selection of the
New York man. Chairman Mack
insists that his wishes which have
prevailed in the matter up to TINS
point. were governed by only two
simple considerations. First, that
the temporary presiding officer of
this great and memorable Demo
cratic convention should be one
who had received the highest eX-
preston of the party's confidence
as a nominee for the presidency.
Since the suggestion Of Mr.. Bryan's
name had developed such wide
spread opposition Judge Parker
was naturally the next man TO be
considered.
Expects Progressive Nominee.
Chairman Mack also AYERS that
he had this other consideration in
mind in connection with Judge
Parker He believes that pro-
gressive Democrat is practically
certain to be the nominee of the
convention. Therefore, he felt that
il would be conciliatory and a step
toward harmony if mild conser-
vative. absolutely non-commlttai
between the various candidates for
