 newspaper reports that Johnson will bolt and head third party if he fails of nomination. He is standing, they say, on his earlier declarations that he is engaged only in family row which will be ended when the convention chooses a candidate and that he will stand by the conventions de- csion.
 Governor Allen of Kansas. who is to nominate General Wood. said today he did not expect the nominating speeches would be reached before Friday and that the balloting would not be started before Saturday. He looked for a protracted session of the resolutions committee.

Upon converting at II. Sen ator Watson said the convention probably would have to determine up on a recess until afternoon for other business.
