ROBBED OF Sl4O
Valuable Papers Also Taken Early
This Morning from Res
taurant Safe

One hundred and forty dollars in
money and some jewelry was taken
from Ed J, Maley's safe at the X.
G. restaurant about S12:30 O'Clock
this morning. The money and valu-
ables were in cigar box In the
safe. There was also lot of yalu-
able papers in the box. The rob-
berry was done while the restaurant
attaches were waiting on customers.
The combination on the safe had
through oversight by Mr.. MaIey not
been set and the thief must have
known OF this fact and watched his
opportunity to get into the safe
without being seen. The safe is
located in the front of the dining
room of the restaurant and a cigar
case stands in front of it, obscur-
ing the view from those In the res
taurant at the time. When the rob-
Der left he left the safe door partly
open This attracted the attention
of one of the walters when he hap
pened to step to the front. Mr..

HAVE AN EASY
TINE AT WORK

Baltimore, Md, june &c. TAX
ing things easy was the order es-
tablished by the Democratic conyen-
ton platform makers, tonight, and
expected long night Of labor did not
eyentuate. The committee members,
soon after midnight, decided they
could be ready by the time eandi-
date Tor president and vice-president
had been nominated tomorrow.
Al interesting development of to-
nights session was that William
Jennings Bryan had no canned"
platform to present. He took off his
coat, rolled up his sleeves and tried
his hand in trying to shape the var
ious planks so that all could stand
upon them. The chief process was
the elimination of many small sub
jects or fads that various men had
presented for party consideration.
The real work will not be under
taken until the committee resumes
It's session at 10 o'clock tomorrow
Whatever the outcome OF the com
mittee's deliberation it seems GER
tain chat the committee will retain

the candidates have been named and

sible against gaining publicity.

TALK THAT WAVE
OF CHAMP CLARK
IS SUbS|DINC

Baltimore, Md, June 26.-With
nominations due to be made tomor-
row, the situation in the Demo-
cratic national convention, with re-
spect to presidential candidate was
as complex and uncertain tonight
as at any time since the delegates
began to pour into Baltimore.
There was much talk of subsi-
dence of the Champ Clark wave.
which reached its crest last night,
but the Speakers campaign man
ayers are not willing to admit that
there has been any wavering in
their forces.
The followers of Woodrow Wilson
Insist tonight that their candidate
has made distinct gains throughout
the day. They asserted without Civ
ing details, that some Of the Clark
sentiment was turning towards the
New Jersey executive, and were In
a more hopeful mood than at any
time during the convention period.
No Nomination on First.
The one outstanding fact in the
Situation seemed to be the absolute
iinposisbility of any candidate hav-
ing sufficient number of votes on
the first ballot to nominate. The
two-thirds rule, prevailing in Demo-
cratic conventions, always makes the
picking of a candidate in advance a
difficult problem.
After the first ballot is taken it
remains to be seen how far the
Clark managers can hold their votes
together.
Some of the delegates said that
the voting would run through a
large number of ballots, while 9TH
ers predicted with equal confidence

steadily. From the galleries the
bearers of the big Staunton banner
came down to the floor. they hurried
to the newsstand and endeavored to
scale the platform. one OF ghe bear

over telegraph keys and heads of

paper man and thrown back into
the crowd.
Struggle Followed.
A struggle followed and for a
time serious disturbance was
threatened. The delegates again at

repulsed.
The uproar on the floor and in
the galleries grew to pandemonium
A crowd jammed the space before

Fhe whole debate had turned up the
situation in Ohio, where nine con-
'ressional districts instructed their

where the Democratic state conven-

forces. adopted a resolution binding
