William J. Conners Of Buffalo said at
a State convention In Rochester, when
he was state Chairman and his can
didate was John A. Dix for Governor:
You can't beat somebody with no

Gibbs McAdoo is the somebody In
this assemblage OF Democrats. There
were a couple of somebodies opposed

mated. Cox ana Palmer. They have
passed out OF the somebody class.
The McAdoo opposition is made up
OF nobodies and the McAdoo forces
are on the offensive.

Growing accustomed to late starts,
the delegates and crowds were slower
than ever in arriving for the Afth .
days session, and whenNthe monater
pipe organ began its recital a half
hour before the hour set for con.
venlng. Its harmony surged out into
an almost empty auditorium.
For a while the organist confned
himself to opera, but as the crowd be-
gan to gather he switched to rve-
ller air and got some OF the early
arrivals singing and whlstling. There
seemed to be a holiday spirit In the
galleries as they looked forward to
a real show.
The hour OF ten came and went with
hardly handful OF delegates on tho
floor and with great empty patches
In the galleries. Only q few OF the
big leaders had come in.
BRYAN CARRIES FIVE AMEND
MENTs TO CONVENTION.
Mr.. Bryan came to the Convention
hall prepared to offer five planks AZ
minority reports. His dry plank was
the samesas the one no announced on
his arrival In San Francisco last
week. In another plank he renewed
his fight for a national bulletin to be
published by the Federal Government.
He had been defeated last night In
u fight before the Committee on
Platform to have a dry plank Inserted
on reported vote Of 80 to H.
Mr.. Bryan and Mr. NuEent dis
cussed the order OF their recognition
with Chairman Robinson and 1t was
arranged that after the platform has
been placed before the convention
Nugent would first offer his wet plank
as an amendment and that Mr.. Bryan
would offer his dry plank as a subs
stitute.
At 1923 Bryan appeared on the
platform. He was greeted with ap-
rather subdued, as It was apparent
most OF the crowd had not noticed
his presence. As the word spread
around the galleries that Byan was
on the platform. the handclaDping
was resumed and lasted about half q
minute.
Chairman Robinson came onto the
platform just after Bryan, together
with Chairman Glass Of the Resolu-
tions Committee.
Another minority report, dealing
with soldier relief. was ready TO be
presented by Tom ID. Lyons Of Okla
homa. II made no mention OF a bonus,
but declared for a system OF farm
and home loans. Just what form the
hght of the Irish sympathizers for
their recognition plank would take
had not been revealed.
Despite the trouble that was brew
ing behind the scenes the delegates
themselves seemed good nAtured az
they gathered on the convention floor.
They filed in joking and laughing
as they asked one another what the
fireworks were going TO be like.
