BILOXI BOAT RACES.

The Marine and Field Clubs fast
racing boat Miss Pascagoula left early
Monday morning in hands of Skipper
Dick Moody to sail down to the twenty.
first annual regatta of the Biloxi
Yacht Club. There was strong head
wind to run against but the sturdy
skipper managed the long trip in four
long tacks and no accidents, arriving
at noon.
| Great crowds were in attendance to
see the affair which turned out to be
very disappointing to the majority of
those present. Just before the start
the signal flags on the judges stand
were blown down and the person that
put them back reversed the flags which
meant to sail the course in different
manner, however the judges had ex-
planned to the various captains the way
they expected the course to be run
and some of them pursued that course
even though the flags said no. So
after the big schooners came home the
captains put in their various protests
and as result the judges called the
affair mo race and called it to be
run over on the following day.
A like decision, except that it was
not to be run over, settled the protests
in the case of the Marine & Field Clubs
entry, Miss Pascagoula," as none of
the boats in this class sailed the prop
er course, so the prize money was do
mated to the local hospital of Biloxi.
The whole trouble of the regatta
course was that two extra stake flags
had been placed in new positions that
some of the judges and captains knew
nothing about, and there were several I
different explanations of the course !,
before the race and hence the grand I
mixup.
Secretary Blair of the Marine &
Field Club is negotiating with the par
Elephants in the second-class cat boat
hace to see whether or not special
match race can be planned for the
near future to settle the affair.
Skipper Moody handled his craft in
a masterful manner rounding the Sec
ond stake full two minutes ahead of
the Willie Kisser which is larger
boat and which also got off to a twen-
ty-two seconds earlier start.
A mishap occurred to the Miss Pas
cagoula after rounding the third stake
which caused the Willie Kisser to make
up the distance between them. The
heavy steel center board dropped
through the casing and dragged the re-
of the course, which caused
the Willie Kisser to finish one second
ahead of her, but as the race was
thrown out the Pascagoula entry can
not be figured as having been defeated.
After few changes have been made
this boat will be ready for the match
race between the boat that is now be-
ing shaped on the beach for Wash Fred
eric Moody is more confident than
ever that he can defeat any boat in
her class along the coast.

MISSISSIPPIANS
NEVER WAVERED
Stood Solid for Cox Throughout and
Are Given Lions Share of Credit
for Nomination.

San Francisco, July 6.--The Missis-
sippi delegation which stood firmly for
Cox from start to finish, and which
was the only state except Ohio that
voted on all ballots for, Cox is being
given credit for his nomination above
all other delegations.
at times terrific pressure was
brought to bear upon the Mississippi
delegation to switch, but this delega-
ton was here to pici, a winner and it
did Amid the excitement yesterday,
when McAdoo was gaining because of
work of officeholders, the Mississippi
! delegation was importuned to break
for some other candidate for "just one
ballot" but it did not, having studied
the situation and realized that Cox
would win if it stood up to him to the
last. The Cox people realize this and
are free to say that Mississippians re-
serve the lions share of credit for
nomination of Cox
Senator Pat Harrison was an able
supporter of E. II. Moore, Cox's floor
manager, all during the great fight,
while Congressman Ben Humphreys
took prominent part in helping Cox
win. More than half of the Missis-
sippi delegation voted from first to last
at all the delegations caucuses to

retary of the navy, was nominated for
vice president today by the Democrat
ic national convention and became the
running mate of Goveror James M.
Cox, Democracys choice for the presi-
Dental nomination. The first cries Of
"Cox and Roosevelt" rang through the
convention hall and were mixed with
the shouts of the vote of acclamation
by whicn he was nominated without a
ballot.
Despite disinclination Of the Tam
many organization to accept him,
Roosevelt's name went over with
band wagon movement, during which
all other candidates were withdrawn.
James Hamilton Lewis Of Illinois
was withdrawn early by former Cover
nor Dunno; Governor Stewart of Mon
tana and former Governor Hawley Of
Idaho were withdrawn, and Brigadier
General l.. D. Tyson of Tennessee, in
person. announced he would not be
contender, as did David R. Francis Of
Missouri. Nomination of w. T. Vaughn
of Oregon, who had received state pri-
mary Endorsement was changed into a
second for the successful nominee.

who was offered as a candidate, and
refused to allow his name to be used.
Finally he was urged to consent If he
should be drafted" as it turned out
the Tammany crowd decided to accept
Roosevelt, who brought to the ticket
the participation of an administration
man, and Mr.. Colby's name was not
considered further.
Nominated BY Cox Man.
Mr.. Roosevelt was placed in nomina-
tion by Timothy L. Ansberry, former
representative from Ohio, who sat as
Cox delegate in the District of Co.
lumbia delegation. Seconds sprang
from all parts of the hall, and although
Roosevelt was not formally nominated
until well after the business of nomina-
tion was taken up, there was never
any doutt about it and never at any
time was there any opposition. The
seconding of his nomination by Cover
nor Smith of New York from the Tam
many delegation, clinched it.
Senator Robinson of Arkansas, per-
manent chairman of the convention,
was appointed chairman of the COM
mittee to notify Governor Cox of his
nomination, and Chairman Cummings
Of the Democratic national committee
to notify Mr.. Roosevelt.

COX NOMINATED
ON 44TH BALLOT
Long Deadlock Comes to Dramatic
cloce-Roosevelt Named for
vlce-President.

Auditorium, San Francisco, July g.
James M. Cox, governor of Ohio, was
nominated for President OF the United
States in the Democratic national con-
vention at 1:40 o'clock this morning.
The nomination came at the conclu-
sion of forty-four-ballo struggle in
which he has steadily beaten down the
forces of William G. McAdoo, former
secretary of the treasury, and Presi-
dent Wilson's son-in-law.
When the balloting on the forty
fourth vote had gotten to point where
Cox had 702 votes and was rapidly ap-'
preaching the necessary two-thirds, or
729, Sam B. Amidon, Of Kansas, man
ager of the McAdoo forces and vice
chairman of the Democratic national
committee, took the platform and
moved thet the nomination be made
unanimous. Immediately there was
roar from the tired and worn delegates
which lasted for full four minutes
before Chairman Robinson could put
the question on Amidon's motion to
suspend the rules and nominate Cox
by acclamation.
At 1:43 o'clock this morning the
motion was formally voted over with
a rolling chorus Of ayes and crashing
OF the brass bands. State standards
which had surged back and forth In
the desperate battles Of the deadlock
raced to the front of the hall and to
place before the platform.
The nomination of Governor Cox
came as the climax to one of the most
remarkable political battles in the his
tory of national conventions. It took
"A ballots to make choice and it was
not until the 38th, when Attorney Gen.
eral Palmer withdrew from the race,
that the long succession Of roll calls
showed any definite trend
In the turnover of the Palmer dele
gates Cox gained the advantage over
G. McAdoo, his rival for first
place since early In the ballotihg and
that advantage never was lost.
