CHICAGO, June 12-"Hiram Johnson

After many conferences. after tne
screws had been forced down upon
several representatives of state dele
cations and after complete poll of
the L S. by Senator Johnson. as to
whether the delegation the conven-
tion were carrying out the wishes Of
their constituents. John Francis Ney-
Ian. assistant floor manager for the
Californian. made this positive predic-
tion early today.
Il was also declared by Senator Bo-
ran that coup would be enacted to-
day which would spell victory for
Senator Johnson.
Senator Johnson shortly after mid
night called all of the newspaper men
together.
He announced that he might have
something to say later. But at l a.
m. he left the headquarters. apparently
thoroughly satisfied with the nights
work. without saying anything.
Asked if he would have anything co
say before his floor managers made
their last stand. he said that he did
not expect to. He was smiling and
jovial.
State Senator Frank E. Thompson.
of Burlington. Iowa. walked into the
johnson headquarters with a delega-
tion of several persons from his state.
He declared that he had come in to
protest the action of the delegations
who were "standpatting" for Lowden
when Johnson is the choice OF the
state. The story of their action is to
be carried back TO the people of Iowa
by these men.
Senator Kenyon. of Iowa. was most
active among those who werew orking
during the early hours of today. aiding
the Johnson camp.
