 Wilson Passes 400
 When Wilson passed the 400 mark for the first time Wilson enthusiasts cheered loudly. Senator Stone, of Missouri. took the stand, and asked unanimous consent to an agreement. p When Missouri was called on the Ewenty-sixth ballot, the entire dele gation arose and shouted, 'Thirty-six for Champ Clark.
 When Maryland. which had been passed. was reached at the end of the roll call. a poll of the delegation was demanded. The chairman of the delegation announced sixteen votes for Clark, but said two members of the delegation wished to state their preference for another candidate. When called, Delegate Joshua Mills. answering to his name shouted Woodrow Wilson. Immediately the convention was in an uproar. Mills reported that he had only half vote.
 Wcman Tries to Lead.
 ya.g eS fC ANfFGrra lI herents for a demonstration. IL was the first indication of the long ex. pected break of Maryland and Wilson forces made the most of it. When the demonstration had continued for i've minutes the We Want Wilson" banner was hoisted by several men. Soon the aisles were blocked In the galleries was heard the shout eve want Wilson" but it did not last long Cheering, whistling. hooting and other noises drowned it out. The roar increased as a Hugh Wilson banner was carried down a side aisle.
 While the demonstration continued Bryan sat unmoved with the Nebras- ka delegation. He famed himself with an air of satisfaction as the delegates passed him.
 While the excitement was at it's heigt the Clark forces joined in. Half a dozen Clark banners were carried into the hall They were greeted with cheers, jeers, hoots and misses. The uproar became pandemonium and the Foss crowd added it's quota to the din. New Jersey and Missouri delegates, seated directly across tha aisles from each other. just before the platform, began 8 wordy quarrel. ! One Missouri delegate, red of faca and dripping with precipitation climbed to a chair and with a wealth of ges- ture made an impassioned speech to the hooting crowd as it passed by.
 Police Take Banners.
 The picture of Wilson fifteen feet high and which played a part in the former Wilson demonstrations was again hoisted in the galleries. Cheers greeted it. Clark forces not to be outdone forced the big California ban ner up to the platform and fight was narrowly averted. As officers of the convention forced it back and down the steps, Miss Gladys Hogan of Baltimore seized the California banner and tried to lead demonstra- tion but without success
 After the demonstration had lasted twenty-five minutes the chair or dered the police to clear all banners from the hall and allow no woman in the section reserved for dele gates Some semblance of order was finally restored and the poll Of the Maryland delegates resumed A cheer greeted the vote of Senator Rainer, cast for Wilson.
