fight was easy. At the end of the day
of furious struggle the convention
stampeded to Cox, flung aside its
rules and made his nomination unan-
imous with a tremendous shout. A
terrific uproar followed.
The Final Session.
The convention went into it's 37th
ballot last night at session which
began at $3.50 o'clock and contained
good prospects for daylight.
With McAdoo, Cox and Palmer
running nearer even than they had
almost at any time before, and each
in practical possession of a veto
power, strong efforts were being
made to break the line at one of its
three corners.
"Tammany holds the key" was the
word passed after conferences in
which both Cox and McAdoo forces
had participated with Charles f
Murphy and other leaders of the
New York delegation. Each side was
pulling for Tammany support and so
many arguments entered into the
complex situation that it was prac-
tically impossible to assess them ac-
curately.
Attorney General Palmer, at GAS
o'clock, at the close of the 38th bal
lot released his delegates and left
the convention free to nominate.
At the end of the second ballot af-
ter the recess, when the Palmer vote
had touched 211 and it was appar-
ent that it could be driven no higher,
former Representative C. C. Carlin.
of Virginia, Mr.. Palmers' manager.
took the platform and announced the
withdrawal of the attorney general
from the race.
Chairman Robinson in presenting
him told the convention significantly
that he was presenting a man who
had announcement to make which
he was confident the convention
would want to hear
Expectation was in the air and the
convention, which only moment be-
fore had been in the height of dis
order and rackety demonstration
quieted like magic until a pin might
almost have been heard to drop in
the great auditorium and Carlin took
the speakers place and said in sub
stance:
Released Palmer Men.
Il am about to make an announce
ment of the greatest Importance to
this convention at the conclusion Of
which I shall move a recess of 20
minutes to give the convention ap-
portunity to decide what course it
shall take. A. Mitchell Palmer asks
me to express his sincere thanks and
appreciation to every delegate who
had voted for his nomination, but he
is unwilling to delay the proceedings
further and authorized me to finally
positively and absolutely release ey-
cry delegate pledged to him that the
| convention may proceed to nomS-
nate the next President of the Unit
ed States
There was a roar of "Hurrah for
Palmer" as the lines broke and the
convention went into a recess. The
denouement, coming at the end of
the 50 hard fought and fruitless bal
lots, gave the same effect as does an
over-infated automobile tire when it
bursts with a bang and then sizzles
down.
The entire Palmer vote, it was dis
covered, if added to McAdoo's total
on the 3Sth ballot, would give Nc
Adoo GIG IL. The Palmer votes
added to the Cox total on the same
ballot would give the Ohio governor
594 IL. Both leading candidates
would fall short of the two-thirds,
