ballot is tskec. i. was announced to-
day.
Murphy and the other Tammany
leaders are still hopeful Of getting the
New York delegation together. so that
1t can be q stronger factor in break
ing the deadlock, but no progress has
been made so far.
The seventeen delegates who have
Mayor Lunn and Roosevelt at their
head, declare they will continue to
vote for McAdoo as long as he is a
candidate before the convention.
Should McAdoo be dropped by the Ad-
mlnlstration leaders in the convention,
including Senator Glass, Secretary
and Cummings, the seventeen delegates
Will vote for whichever candidate the
Administration forces swing TO-
The only possibility Of uniting the
ninety New York votes, the independ-
ents declared to-day, is for Murphy
to make deal with the Admnstra-
tion leaders and swing his votes to the
candidate that may be selected in place
of McAdoo to break the deadlock.
Murphy can control most of the
seventythree or sevcnty-four votes
that have been cast for Governor Cox
by New York since the delegation
stopped voting for Governor Smith for
anybody but McAdoo, it was said to-
day.
Should dark horse be brought out
and sincere effort made by the lead
crs of most Of the factions in the con-
vcntion to break the deadlock, New
York's ninety votes would be cast for
the dark horse candidate, both the
Tammany men and the independents
said to- day.

Presented With Stogie
In several of the small towns and
villages the Senator was recognized
and returned shouted greetings with \
Sv3, wave of his hand. Just outside of
: W heeling. w. Va, an automobile drew
abreast of the Senator's car. The SEN
ator reached out an arm, man in the
other car reached out his and extended
the nominee a long Wheeling stogie
Stogles are Senator Harding's favorite
smokes.
The party stopped at Wheeling
hotel for half an hour, and after the
Senator had put on fresh collar he
came into the lobby whore Abraham
Lincoln once delivered d speech, and
greeted a number of friends
To one Of these. a member Of the
american Legion, Senator Harding said
that he was planning to go to st. Louis
July % to lay the cornerstone Of an
American Legion monument. The date
is three days after the date Of his
formal notification at Marion.
During the halls in the trip to day
Mrs. Harding talked about her fond
ness for motoring.
IL am good back-seat dryer" She
said, and Frank Blacksten, the chauf
feur, laughed. "I'vc always been able
to drive fast horses, but Pm awed by
machinery. Sometimes, when Mr.. Hard
ing wants to be facctious. he says that
car is about the only thing he owns
that don't want to run"
One of the men Senator Harding
chatted with at Wheeling was George
S. Houston, who directed his pre-con
vention campaign in that part Of West
Virginia.
1t was $40 o'clock before the party
resumed the run to GAINESVILLE, seventy
seven miles away on the national pike.
Arriving at GAINESVILLE, the Senator and
Mrs. Harding wasted little time in fix
ing up their appearance, but hurried
into the American plan dining room
and thence to their room for good
nights sleep in preparation for a
strenuous welcome home tomorrow.

Coolidge Arrives
At Old Homestead
And Creets Father
Vice Presidential Nominee
MOtOrsto Central Vermont
Farm. Where He Will Chop
Wood, Hike and Just Rest

PLYMOUTH, Vt, July 4-Governor
Calvin Coolidge of Massachusetts, Re
publican candidate for Vice-President
arrived late to-day in this settlement
in the backwoods hill section of CEN
tral Vermont for vacation with his
father at the old family homestead
and farm where he was born.
He came over the road from Boston
by automobile and was joined at Bel
lows Falls by Mrs Coolidge and their
elder son, John.
He plans to remain here at least two
weeks and probably until just before
the ceremonies at Northampton. Mass,
on July 27 when he will be notified
formally of his nomination. During
the vacation he will work on his speech
OF acceptance and "just rest" as he
expressed it to-day.
The Governor does not nunt or FISH.
but he enjoys getting out INTO the
country on long hikes, and working in
the fields and at the wood pile. There
is a large pile OF wood in the yard now,
part of it split by the Governor during
his last visit, and he intends TO attack
it again. He will also go into the fields
and follow plow.
The departure from Boston early to-
day was without incident and the trip
was uneventful. although. the official
Governors car with flags and state
seal was used. The latter part of the
journey was in a driving transform
which let up for few minutes Just as
the automobile drew up to the cid
home. The Governors father and the
younger son. Calvin jr.. who had come
here three days ago, hurried out to
meet them
The Governor was the first out OF
the car and greeted his father affec-
tionately, shaking hands and then kiss
ing him. 1t was the first time they had
met since the Governor was nominated
for Vice-Presdent. The father put
his arms around him and said Hello
Cal" and then led him by the hand
into the house. The arrival was un-
heralded and only few newspaper
men were present.
The Homecoming was all the moro
pleasant because to-day was the Gov
ernors birthday-his forty ghth. In
appreciation Massachusetts, friends had
presented him with huge birthday
cake which the father proudly dis
played On it were the dates 1872 1920

MARION. Ohio, July 4.-Homc is the
word of words in Marion day. The
home folks are preparing an old-fash-
ioned homecoming welcome for its
distinguished son, one who is above
everything else home town man. The
wide, elm shaded streets of Marion
show Old Glory through the leafy ar
bors and a picture Of the calm, kindly
face of Warren G. Harding is in every
window
In the lobby of the Commercial Club
Marlon's sole indulgence in the club
luxury, newspaper clipping is dis
played showing the pictures of Wash
ington and Harding side by side. The
resem mbance is indeed striking and
Marion prides itself thereon.
Across the sky line of Marion's busi-
est square you read the banner of the
Marion Civic Association and in the
building occupied by that newly born
organization you find Marion's best
workers planning and perfecting ar
rangements for to-morrow's welcome
! to the man who is Marions whole
hearted first choice for the Presidency
of the United States.
Democrats Head Committees
D. D. Crissinger, the most prominent
Democrat in Marion, heads the recep-
ton committee, which is in charge of
to-morrow's demonstration, and James

crat. heads the entertainment COM
