DEMOCRATS BEGIN GATHERING
FOR BALTIMORE CONVENTION

Baltimore, June 20-With the meet
ing here today of the committee in
arrangements of the Democratic ma
tional convention and the arrival of
the advance guard of delegates and
politicians, Baltimore is beginning to
take on the aspects of national con-
vention city. Flags and bunting are
blossoming out over the town and in
the windows pictures of Clark, VIII
son, Harmon. Bryan and other party
leaders are displayed.
Baltimore is today fully prepared
for the coming Of the 1000 delegates
who will make up the convention to
be opened next Tuesday, the same
number of alternates and the thous-
ands of other visitors. Reports that
the hotels of the city are preparing
to gouge the city's guests have been
Investigated and have not been found
to have basis Of fact, except in iso-
lated cases. 1t is certain, however,
that there will be a great deal of
crowding, and whenever possible a
number of men will be put in each
hotel rooms. Some of the delegat-
ions. including that from Tammany
Hall. have arranged to sleep in par
lor cars during their stay in the city.
The arrangements committee at it's
meeting today will complete all the
final details for the big convention
So far as the convention hall is con-
cerned nothing remains to be done.

Guards have been stationed about
the big army building to prevent
vandalism by souvenir hunters. Tests
of the acoustic properties made to-
day by prominent Democrats were en-
tirely to their satisfaction. By only
slighly raising his voice, a speaker
can be heard distinctly in the most
distant section of the big auditorium.
All of the presidential candidates
have headquarters open today and
their managers are busily completing
plans for the coming campaign. None
of the aspirants are so confident as

to leave any stone unturned or wire
unpulled that would be of assistance
in getting the nomination. The man
ayers of the candidates are very con-
fidence in talking with representatives
of the press, and each is certain that
his man will be chosen on the first
ballot With sublime trust in the con-
vention, they are also keeping their
powder dry"
1t is estimated that about a quarter
of million people have hankering
to see the workings of the Democratic
convention, as about that many appli-
cations for tickets have been received.
AS there are only about 10000 seats
available, there will be about 100000
disappointed people. As each and
every applicant for a ticket is a man
without whom the Democratic cadi-
date cannot possibly be elected, the
committee that had charge of the dis
tribution has troubles of its own.
Col. John L. Martin, of St. Louis,
sergeant at arms of the national COM
mittee, has been here for some time
and has his plans completed. Prac-
tically all of the assistant sergeants
at arms, doorkeepers, pages, messen-
gers and other functionaries have
been chosen and instructed in their
duties.
The Fifth Regiment Armory. where
the convention will be held, occpuies
nearly an entire city square in the
Mount Royal district, fronting on
Hoffman street, and with Preston
street in the rear At the two ends
of the block are Linden and Park
avenues, on which run trolley lines
connecting the hall with the business
center of the city The armory was
built at a cost of $45O,OOO, appropriat-
ed by the state of Maryland, as a drill
hall for Baltimore's famous regiment,
the Dandy Fifth" but in its construc-
ton its future uses as a convention
hall were kept in mind by the archi-
tect, with the result that the big edi-

WHAT SHERMAN SAID.

Those claims about the number OF
delegates that each Republican con-
testant asserts he has nailed down
provoke "reminiscences of Senator
Sherman's historic complaint that
Alger bought his Southern delegates
away from him.-Pittsburg Dispatch.
The esteemed Dispatch has the sub
stance of the matter but not the ex-
act semblance. 1t was not Senator
John Sherman but Gen. w. T. Sher-
man who made the assertion in ex-
planation of why Senator John Sher-
man was defeated, and he made it in
the following words to wit: "Alger
bought Johns niggers."- Nashville

HOBSON'S CHOICE.

Richmond Pearson Hobson thinks
Alabama's second choice at Baltimore
should be Woodrow Wilson. That is
entirely right. The New Jersey Gov
ernor should, in fact, have heen Ala
bamas first choice. Her favorite son,
Oscar Underwood, stands small
chance to win the nomination, and all
ne has so far done, or apparently tried
to do, was to take away from Wilson
four states in the southeast corner
OF the country, where all other candi-
dates held off and gave him a free
field
Mr.. Hobson's advice should be fol-
lowed, not only by Alabama but by
the contiguous Southern States that
have instructed for Underwood

been named, can and will lead the

The Democratic committee on Gre
dentials has little to do. The dis
pute between the Philippine delegates
and the Illinois quarrel are the only
contests that it will have to decide.
The choice of a temporary chair
man to sound the keynote is occupy
ing the most attention today, and it
is believed that New York man will
be given the honor. Senator O'Gor-
man seems most likely, and he is said
to be the choice of Leader Murphy of

New England farmer Suffers
Probably Fatal Injury in
Peculiar Manner.

New England. n. D., Nov. e6.-Matt
Theil. a New England farmer. Is in
the local hospital suffering with d
broken back. the result of a terrible
accident which occurred at his farm,
southeast of town when the unfor-
tunate man was caught in the fly
OF a threshing engine. Several
vertebrae of the spine r mashed to
a jelly and chances for recovery arc
almost impossible. Mr.. Theil is con-
scious. but the lower part Of his body
is paralyzed. He does not suffer as
much as would be expected and does
not fully realize the seriousness Of his
condition.
just how he got into the engine
is not known. He recently re.
covered from a siege of typhoid fever
and was not strong enough to do all
kinds + heavy work. On this day he
was hauling water for Floyd Ham,
mond's engine which was threshine
fax at his place. 1t is thought, that
Mr.. Thiel got tired and sat down to
rest near the engine wheel which,
caught his coat and pulled him in.
The engine was stopped almost i'm
mediatelv but no until Mr.. Theil had
been seriously injured. 1t was aeces-
sary to cut away part of his clothinG
before the victim could be pulled out
Of the wheel.
Mr.. Theil was rushed to the hospi-
tai where he is being made as COM
Portable as possible. However. his
injuries are SO serious that but little
hope for hi recovery is entertained.
