one minute and which was confined 20

was no marching. II was the general
impression of the friends Of Nr. Davis
that the postponcmont of his nomlna

add some PSYCHOLOGICAL strength II his
candidacy. but the crowd seemed an
apath"tic one compared with the one
tho day before.

Finally Tired Of Waiting For
Report of Committee
on Platform
SAN FRANCISCO, July AFTER

SAN FRANCISCO, July AFTER
futile night session given over prtn-
cipauy to waiting for tho wet and dry
hght to come Off, tho Democratic ma
tional convention finally found the
platform committee unable to report.
and without prospects OF making
report before tomorrow morning, 1t
adjourned At lo:2S o'clock until 10
o'clock tomorrow morning.
While the convention marked ttme
down In the big hall, tucked away IN
one corner Of tho big building, the
platform committee continued Its ef-
fort to hArmonize Its report. A{ter
practically closing mp the question
once, the committee decided to g1vo
william J, Bryan another opportunity
to present prohibition plank.
Apparently, MI. Bryan made such
headway with his arguments that tho
committee, which It was once though
would soon make Its report with
majority determined to leave the pro-
hibttton Issue out OF the document,
found itself unable to make report
at all.
Permanent Chairman Robinson had
a conference with Senator GLASS, OF
tho resolutions committee, and 1t was
finally announced that there was little
prospects Of the committee being
re ady to make its report before to-
morrow morning.
Amid yeus OF disappointment from
a record breaking crowd which called
for Bryan, Bryan. Bryan" and I'VE
want to hear Bryan" the convention
adjourned until tomorrow morning.
The prospects were said TO be that the
resolutions committee would work all
night.
