San Francisco, July 3.-With Nc
AdoO leading his nearest competitor
by Is votes at the end OF the sec
ond ballot, the administration ma
chine sent the delegates to their ho-
tells at $40 Friday night with or
ders to come back at $50 Saturday
morning
Overwhelming "noes" greeted the
motion to adjourn made by Fitzgerald
of New York. The Bureson and Nc
Adoo Senator Robinson, cody banged
with his gavel and said "the ayes have
it, and the convention will adjourn
until $50 tomorrow
Obedient delegates laughed direct

ried away to their hotels, where the

TO be sincere about anything would
make a man or woman stand out in
this gathering, SO when Bryan with
distinguished skill and eloquence
urged bone-dry plank, damned prof
iteers and denounced compulsory
military training, he rose by sheer
comparison to the height of moral
Caesar, who bestrode the convention
like a Colossus. Because his audi
tors were voters before they were
democrats, they loosed the one spon-
taneous outburst Of the convention
and praised their moral Caesar and
then they buried him, for your dele
cation is an honorable man who will
not break his oath of allegiance to
the masters who have turned thumbs
down on the moral emotion, which is
Organism.
The platform prepared in commit
tee had been read and its ratifica-
tions ordered like that of the treaty
and league without the dotting of an

was approved by the convention. The
debate and vote forced by Bryan and

WiiSONITES CONTROL.
{ Special United Press Wire

San Francisco, July THE ad-
ministraticn remains in control of
the democratic convention Bryan,
who loomed as the biggest figure in
the situation as he conducted a
whirlwind fight to break Wilson IS
platform, has been beaten down by
the administration forces. He got
cheers but not votes, in his dra-
matte appearance before the conven-
ton, where he attempted to side
track the league of nations issue
and put the dry plank in the plat
form.
Early this morning Bryan, very
tired, scarcely able to keep his eyes
open, but still wearing the famous
smile, stood in his room in the ST.
Francis hotel, shaking hands with
scores of his admirers. He mur-
INJURED a few words to each, but
even the effort to talk was almost
too much. There were few crumbs
of comfort, In fact the convention
rejected Cochran's dry plank, and
Bryan's friends believe that his
oratory had something to do with

few others are of no consequence
except that they put the democratic
party on record respecting matters
which it wished to ignore as COM
pletely as the republicans did, In
districts where prohibition is strong,
republican spell-binders will profess
their own conversion to that faith
and taunt the democratic party with
having in convention spurned it.
The assembly specifically declined
to endorse the Volstead law. In dis
tricts opposed to military conscrip-
ton, democrats must defend them
selves for specifically refusing to
condemn it, and that situation ap-
plies further to the matter of con-
pensation for eX-soldiers, popular
election of representatives, the league
of nations and recognition of the
Irish republic. The democrats re-
jected all these things by record vote
and must defend themselves against
republicans whose convention merely
ignored them,
The platform defends Palmerism,
and boasts of their use against So
cial, political and economical pro-
tests. 1t ignores Russia and voices
its 'active sympathies with Poland
and Finland" 1t reports the 20
year old pledge of the democratic
party to free the Philippines with
out unnecessary delay" 1t splits
with the whole organized labor move
ment by demanding private owner
ship of the railroads. 1t asks the
workers to reduce the cost of living
by producing more. 1t opposes COM
