McAdo0 boomers. the Palmer people
and the Cox shouters one verse each
Of their favorite air.
Chairman Robinson called Senator
Phelan "a great California democrat
to the platform to announce the re-
suits of the 38th ballot.
Hopes Go GIimmerinu.
Hopes and prospects that the con.
vention might nominate today went
glimmering@s soon after It got down to
business today.
It was apparent that the lines were
going to hold The Cox lines did hold
stoutly in the face Of two breaks to
McAdoo, one from Indiana and an
other from Washington. They came
back in some other delegations soon
Palmer sentiment was rather lag
ging when the sudden rush of. the
votes to the attorney generals column
gave it a sudden rise late today and
his supporters were taking new heart
There was no evidence of any plans
which would assure that the conven
ton could finish it's work tonight.
The three candidates have run a
wide range in the balloting. Palmer
starting out at 256, fell as low as IA
In the second, and by the Goth had
gotten back to 241.
Cox was at his lowest with 134 in
the first ballot. His high water mark
was 468 in the 18th.

McAdoo, starting out with lead
was 266 in the first ballot. Cox soon
took the first place, however, by the
32nd ballot, McAdoo was not only back
in first place but had struck a high
water mark of 421 IL.
In the 36th he was at 399.
During the recess the Cox people
went into a conference There was q
proposal in the air to see if the New
York delegation could not be swung
to the Palmer column.
The report which went with the
stor yof the conference was that il

An attempt at a recess during the
earlier part of the session was drown
ed out in shouts of it's approval.
When Palmer on the thirty-hftn
ballot hit a higher mark than he had
at any time since the eleventh tne
Palmer people wanted one more bal
! lot. The Palmer people set UP an
other demonstration. There was
movement on foot for a recess until
8 o'clock after the. thirty-f1fth ballot
but the Palmer people wanted one
more ballot before that and the recess
idea was not pressed. While the
Pennsy1vanians were chanting Pal
| mer, Palmer, Pennsylvania to the
tune OF GLORY, Glory, haI1elu1ah, the
Cox people took a hand at making q
parody and when the McAdoo people
set UP a counter demonstration, the
Ohio and Pennsylvania crowd chanted
out verse which went:
seth Ballot.
Cali the boys are on the payroll. 7"
They directed their mega-phones to-
ward the McAdoo crowd.
When the convention got back to
order and Alabama was called on the
/ Seth ballot, Palmer made another
gain, taking seven from Alabama. He
! took them from McAdoo, Davis and
| Cox. It was the vote which the
Palmer people had been promised and
| was the reason they did not want to
recess
Then Palmer picked up four more

and Cox. Knetucky, having previous

the Cox manager, viewing the dem
onstration without evidence of alarm,
said:
"All right, we will still have 30
votes the best of McAdoo when this

A McAdoo man nearby remarked
that Moore had just lost $500 betting
on the early nomination of Cox.
The McAdoo crowd got a lot of
state standards in their procession
and left about half of them at heir
| places. The demonstration was
rather tired one. 1t seemed as
! if everybody had demonstrated HIM
self to exhaustion in the roaring
spectacles of last week and had lit

demonstration today and without its
blaring accompaniment the racket
failed to gather such momentum but

thrown to the Palmer column. This
of course, was dependent on convinc-
ing the Cox managers that they had
struck their limit in the bal1oting.
Predictions All Go Wrong.
The forces went in session this
morning with predictions on every
hand that a nominee would soon be
found. Large bets were laid that the
convention would nominate within an
hour and a half. But such poor prog
ress was made that vote was forced
on proposals to suspend the rules, and
drop the low man on each succeeding
ballot until a nomination was made.
me plan failed for lack Of the neces-
sary two-thirds vote, but it showed the
growing temper of the convention.
Even when the day session was
drawing toward a close and these
were prospects of another session to-
morrow, the desperate leaders were
still looking for some way to break
the deadlock.
The McAdoo forces reversed the
order of the progression in the bal
loting and took the lead today in the
thirtieth ballot. McAdoo had lost the
lead to Cox on the twelfth ballot last
week.
Cox Lines Hold Fast.
For a moment, when Indiana tum-
bled in 29 of her 80 and Tom Taggart
himself cast the ballot it looked as ii

votes, cast them all for McAdoo, the
! McAdoo people weHv sure the move
ment was on, but it was too late on
the ballot to do any good. The Cox
people probably a little nervous but
protesting the confidence which the
! outcome justified, sent word to their
war horses to stanr pat and refuse to
be stampeded. The word was effec-

James NJ. Cox, governor of Ohio was
nominated for President OF the United
States in the democratic national con-
vention at 1:40 o'clock this morning.
The nomination came at the concIu-
sion of a fOrtyfourth ballot struggle
In which he had steadily beaten down
the forces of William G. McAdoo, for
mer secretary of the treasury ana
President Wilson's son-in-laW.
When the balloting on the forty
fourth vote had. gotten to point
where Cox had 7O2 votes and was rap
idly approaching the necessary 49,
Sam B. Amidon, of Kansas, manager
of the McAdoo forces and vice chair
man of the democratic national COM
mittee, took the platform and moved
that the nomination of Governor COX
be made unanimous. Immediately
there was a roar from the tired and
worn delegates which lasted for full
four minutes before Chairman Robin
son could put the question on Ami
don's motion to suspend the rules and
nominate Cox by reclamation.
At 1:43 o'clock this morning the mo-
ton was formally voted over with
rolling chorus of ayes and craslng
Of the brass bands. State standards
which had surged back and forth in
the desperate battles of the deadlock
raced to the front OF the hall and to
place before the platform.
In the confusion and excitement OF
a nomination after the body forgot
about a nomination for vtce-presldent
but the leaders we're figuring on a list
which prominently included Franklin
ID. Roosevelt of New York, assistant
secretary of the navy. While the
crowd was demonstrating its release
from the deadlock the leaders arrang-
ed an adjournment until today noon
to canvass the question Of second
place in the meantime and meet again
prepared to complete the ticket.
The Cox band wagon movement
really started late yesterday afternoon
before the recess for dinner
During the recess between the 41st
and 42nd ballots Georgia caucused and
it was decided to stick with McAdoo
for another. Some change was limited
at but not defined.
A roll call was ordered on motion
to adjourn until 10 O'CLOCK tomorrow.
Former Governor Limbaugh of Ok
lahoma moved it and the Cox people
opposed it fearing the effects of an
overnight rest on their lead.
The Georgia delegation, 1t was re-
ported on caucus, went over to Cox
under the unit rule for the next bal
lot.
The motion to adjourn was defeat
ed The Cox people thus won their
determination to continue striking
while the iron was hot and press their
advantage. The McAdoo states for
most part voted for an adjournment,
although some of them did vote
against it.

Attorney General Palmer, at 9:45
o'clock tonight, at the close Of the
thirty-eighth ballot, released his dele
gates and left the democratic national
convention free to move out of its
deadlock and nominate a presidential
candidate.
At the end of the second ballit, after
the recess, when the Palmer vote had

1t could be driven no higher, former
Representative G.. c. Carlin, of Vir-

NEW YORK, January 12.-Slim

boxing commission of New Jersey to
referee the eight-round fight between
Fred Fulton and Frank Moran at the
Newark Sportsmen's Club in Newark.
n. j., tonight.
It will mark Fulton's first appear
ance in a ring in this country since
arriving from England. where he
knocked out several second raters in a
few punches and scared the better Eu-
ropean heavyweightS into hiding. Even
Beckett and Carpenter lodged the
plasterer, although he repeatedly chal-
lenged.
Moran has made good since he re-
turned to the ring recently after re-
tirement. Both Fulton and Moran fin
iShed their training Saturday.

both heavyweights in training.
Because of the Importance of the
match" said Chairman Smith, Il
wished to thoroughly satisfy myself
that the principals are in good condi-
ton. Moran has impressed me par
ticularly. The official physician of the
boxing commission examined him Sat

burgher could not be in better shape.
Moran has surprised me in his train
ing. l never saw a boxer work harder
than he has wroked for the match.
