everything-and going about pro-
claiming her belief Of the time.
Just now she was ardent for suf-

finest thing In the world, flame OF
pure martyr enthusiasm which was
bound to tighten the world. Yet
that persistent Harleth had dared to
laugh of her eulogies Of window

must somehow punish him, even II
she had to go to the length Of cap

Then, too, might It not be possible
thus to win him over to the cause?
Mentally she took stock Of herself.
She was still very beautiful, II bit

WILSON GIVES REASON
For Not Appearing in Baltimore-Says
1t Would Be Impertinence.

Sea Girt, n. j., June Ex-Governor
Wilson issued a statement. tonight, de-
claring his reasons for remaining away
from Baltimore during the convention
He said.
1T would manifestly be very nearly
an act of impertinenee on my part to
appear before the convention as If to
seek their interest in me personally. i
am interested in arguing causes, but
not in such errands as | would seem to
have # l went TO Baltimore / never
entertained the thought for minute. =
This was to set at rest a movement
begun several days ago by the Cover
nor's friends to have him appear be-
fore the convention. AS to the general
situation GOV. Wilson said: =
Ny predominating feeling about the
whole situation Is one of pride that the
men, who are supporting me are do
ing SO because of an evident conviction
that they are standing for principle.
| should feel abashed il / thought it
was merely loyalty to me as an indi-
vidual deeply as that would crafty
any man. | feel it is privilege to be
supported as they are supporting me
and To see the support grow, as If in
response to conviction and public SEN
timent."
On being shown a statement in Sun
dav papers that the Wilson managers
had failed to arrange with leaders Of
tho New York delegation for the votes
of New York, Gov. Wilson dictated the
following statement:
'Of course I do not know in detail,
what my friends and supporters are
doing, but l am morally certain that
they are not making arrangements or
attempting to come to any agreement
with anybody. There cannot by any
possibility be any trading done in my
name; not a single vote can or will be
obtained by means of any promise"
Gov. Wilson spent the day quietly.
During the afternoon, he conferred
with friends in Baltimore, over the
long distance telephone. He said he
was making no attempt to direct the
details of his campaign.

SATURDAYS STORY.
CONTINUED from Page one.3

Saturday, able to recall another in
stance in recent years in which it had
required anything like the number of
ballots to nominate that so far have
been taken without result.
Having failed to nominate with the
week END il is not anticipated that the
delegates will hurry to a decision on
Monday and the fight may be prolong-
ed for several days. The Clark people
are still confident that enough of tl,eir
delegates viii remain steadfast to com
stitu the necessary one-third to pre-
vent nomination. Many of the dele
gates We're hopeful that an early de-
cision might be reached, but the two
leading candidates We're. Saturday
night, so far short of the 725 1-3 votes
necessary to nominate. that the prob
lem ahead seemed a most difficult one.
The afternoon session was market
by another dramatic outburst from
Mr.. Bryan. Claiming the privilege Of
explaining why he and more than n
dozen other delegates from Nebraska
were going to switch their votes from
Clark to Wilson, the former candi-
date held the floor for nearly an hour
anu was tiit tNHlti VI a SlDilu NiiAi
swept the hall He declared that so
long as Champ Clark continued to ac-
cept the support OF Charles r. Muir
ply and Tammany Hail." he would
not vote for him. In changing to Will
son, Mr.. Bryan said he reserved the
right to switch again if New York or
any other state delegation controlled
by the interests" should go to the
standard of the New Jersey governor.
Several delegates demanded to know
if Mr.. Bryan would support the ulti-
mate nominee of the convention, in the
event that his nominating vore includ
ed the 80 from the state of New York.
Mr.. Bryan said he was content to
make his protest in advarce of any
decision by the convention. He Eek
pected" to support the nominee.
Some of the delegates Relieved Mr..
Bryan was making final bid for the
nomination. IL it was Intended as
such, it appeared to fall.

down the Clark strength which was
said to be determined that Bryan
should not win through a combination
of any kind. Should Clark and Will
son fail on the next two or three ball
lots il was predicted that there would
be turn to Representative Under
wood. who had held his normal vote
from first to last. Underwood forces
We're watching for just such con-
tingeney and claimed to be prepared
TO take full advantage of it. Whether
the Alabama candidate could win or
not was the subject Of much specula-
ton, but outside of the delegates who
had voted for him on the 26th ballot
there did not appear to be much en-
thusiasm
II was not expected, tonight. that
any of the Ozark horse" candidatesl
will stand much show until the three
leaders in turn have tried and failed.
Many absurd rumors were current
in the hotel Hobbies One was that
the leadership agreed upon the alb
rogation of the two thirds rule after
80 ballots had been cast
Another report was that the Will
son men had made combination with
the Clark forces by which the New
Jersey candidate would disavow Rry-
an and in return receive the nominal
ZION.
Still another was that anti Bryan
forces in their Indignation against
Bryan had entered into solemn and
unbreakable compact not to permit
the nomination of Wilson under any
circumstances. No foundation could
be found for a single one of these
rumors. So far as could be learned
all of the conferences of the day had
proved fruitless. ON the face of the
last ballot cast, Gov Wilson seemed
to have a decided advantage over
other candidates, having mounted
steadily 10 4071& votes from 324 on the
first ballot. His campaign managers
appeared sincere in their predictions
that his vote would grow. Conse-
quentiy they We're doing their utmost
to steer clear of the controversy be-
tween Clark and Bryan Some Of
them felt they had made mistake,
last night. in conserving to an adj
1ournment before midnight. believing
that if Clark had gone before the con-
vention there would have been a
wordy duel between him and Bryan,
which might have further weakened
The Misaourian's chances.
The friction between the Clark
managers and the Missouri delegation
was said TO have been smotthed over.

Baltimore spurred his leaders to UNI
