M'ADO0DEFEATPUT
ON PAT HARRISON
Swung Miss. Votes to Cox on
Strength of Withdrawal TeIe-
gram, Says Writer.

NEW YORK, July THE New
York Tribune's correspondent at San
Francisco In story printed this
morning blames the defeat of WILL
lam @. McAdoo on Senator Pat Har-
rison of Mississippi. who accepted
the McAdoo withdrawal telegram at
its full value and swung Mississippis
twenty votes TO Cox at the beginning
and held them in line all through the
balloting.
When he arrived at San Francisco
Senator Harrison was an avowed Nc
Adoo booster. Upon reading the now
famous telegram, the Senator went
into conference with Ed Moore, Cox's
manager. and when he emerged Mis-
sissippi's block OF votes was pledged
to the Ohio governor. the story adds.
Senator Harrison from then on be-
came n Cox floor leader and his popu-
larity with all factions aided Moore
in directing the shrewd moves which
kept tho Governor in a strategic DO
sItion all through the night.
The Tribune correspondent adds
that many observers are "now con-
vinced that had Harrison been fight
ing for McAdoo and had he been hold
ing the twenty votes OF his delega-
ton in line for the Presidents som
in-law as he did for Cox, McAdoo
would have gone over the necessary
two-thirds majority on Saturday
