Roger Sullivan extended this tenn

somewhat chagrined because as a
result. the nomination was effected.
The reading clerks droned along
and the next two ballots showed
steady increase for Coz; tho re-
ports ran through the hall that un-
less hs passed 500 within one or two
ballots the Palmer strength would
be thrown to McAdoo. not perma-
nentiy but for a few ballots. It was
apparent that with their present
vote for a be sis the two together
would have barely $50 votes and
that two-thirds vote loomed up in
accessible and Impossible.
While the tellers were footing up

seven hours.
All sorts OF Information was

in the swing to Cox reported
ruefully that they thought that 500

There was complaint that the
well-drilled army OF Federal Office
holders who were clinging logged
ly to their candidates were merely
obstructing business. 1t was all
very well for them, was the COM
ment, their salaries go on Just the
same, and about half of them are
here on an expense account any,
how. But 1t was rough on the
average delegate who must pay
his own bills.
The activity of the Federal office-
holders, while IL furnished the struc-
ture OF the McAdoo campaign. was
a cause for some criticism. In an
experience of a great many years
have never seen so many OF this
gentry so active in a convention.
Taken in association with the
crown prince cry IL was harmful to
McAdoo. Moreover. this prolonga-
ton Of the balloting was destruc-
tive of the sentimental basis of
the McAdoo candidacy. The theory
has been noisily urged that he was
himself opposed TO the use of his
! name. and that the nominate was
being forced upon him by the spon =
| taneous and well-nigh unanimous
demand of his party. The spectacle
of score or more OF eminent Off
cials laboring night and day to make

one third of the delegates on the
fourteenth ballot was fatal to this
theory.
The sixteenth ballot reported at

leaders. The one significant feature
OF the ballot was the jump Of Davis
to So votes asthe result OF the solid
vote of Tennessee. The District Of
Columbia vote on this ballot was
cast as a unit for Palmer, after a
ruling by the chair that the unit
rule would be enforced. lmmedi-
ately after the report of the tellers
on motion of Mr.. Spellacy. of Con-
necticut. a recess was taken until
o'clock. The vote was in a sense
test between the Cox forces. and
the ants. the latter desiring ad-

eight inches of shoe and hose. Pile

Novelty color favorites seem to be
the hectic tomato hues and tur-

A typical neXt-season street

low waistline into a tunic that falls
