Those who are directing the hsht
for MoAdoo plan to have their man
receive not more, than $50 votes on
the first ballots. The Palmer men
ore driving for a maximum. They
probably will never get more than 4so
or 500 votes and then the numerical
building for Cox and AfoAdoo win
begin
There seems TO be some doubt as
to whether the McAdoo people viii
throw in their reserves and forge
ahead as soon as Palmer Is eliminate
ed or hold their strength intact while
the drive on Cox Is tested out But
while there Is significant talk every
where OF a MoAdoo triumph the votes
are not yet on the horizon. The man
ayers are counting on psychological
effect and breaks as the balloting
progresses.
MeADoo MAY GET 600 VOTES ON
EARLY BALLOTS.
It would not be at all surprising IL
McAdoo got up to 600 votes and failed
to get any more for several ballo.s.
Then the crucial moment win come.
The McAdoo strength is the kind that
sticks just as Wilson's following dld
at Baltimore in 1912, but there Is al
ways danger when a deadlock comes
that the delegates will begin turning
TO compromise candidates.
II that happens. the Indiana delesR-
ton will start a movement for Vice
President Marshall and may get some
support from New York and Ohio
and Illinois. as Marshall Is supposed
TO have wet leanlngs. on the other
hand, such a situation might be met
by the Wilson forces by a counter
drive, with Homer Cummings. Chair
man OF the Democratic National Com
mittee, who Is more or less friendly
to the vets. at least Bryan considers
him so. Just what effect this turn
from the big three would have Is
entirely conjectural.
Mr.. Cummings made n splendid im-
preston with his keynote speech and
of course ne is personally known TO
most OF the delegates and would bo
acceptable to President Wilson. But
It is true that at this writing few
people here expect any such develop
ments. All minds are fixed on the
big three-Palmer. Cox and McAdoo
with an almost universal feeling
throughout San Francisco that Nc
Adoo has the best chance.
Members Of the New York dele
cation who are bitterly opposed
to MeAdoo privately eoneeds he
has the best prospects and are
whispering TO their betting friends
to place their money on him.
MoAdoo's stock went up following
che victory of the Administration
forces in the choice Of Senator
Carter Glass to be Chairman Of
the Resolutions COMMITTEES. Al
though a Votetwas not taken Il
was apparent that tho Wilson
forosS controlled the situation BY
a majority-they claimed il by IS
