SAN FRANCISCO. June 23.-The
Vice Presidential boom of Gov. Alfred
e. Smith, chaperoned to San Fran
cisco by the women delegates and al
ternates from New York. has grown
over night into something of impor-
tance. Gov. Smith is to be placed in
nomination for President.
He doesn't know IT yet. Somewhere
out n--the prairies the Governor OF
New York is speeding this way, en-
tirely unaware that some orator Of
the. standing of Bourke Cochran, for
instance, is to present his name to
the convention. Doubtless he will pro-
test when he arrives. but he Is to be
the candidate of the State of New
York, and inasmuch as he is slated to
proceedings prior to the time the
nominations are made, it is quite pos
slble some State up in the AS will
yield to New York, and lat Alfred f.
Smith will find himself named as New
York's favorite son early on the list.
Requests that Gov. Smith be nomi-
mated have come TO San Francisco
from all over the United States.
National Committeeman Norman
r. Mack has a basketfull of kilograms
and letters advising that New York
come out of obscurity and take the
lead in the Democratic Party. Mr..
Mack showed me a telegram to-day
frem a prominent Democrat in Mil
waukee calling attention to the fact
that Grover Cleveland was about the
same sort Of Governor of New York
that Gov. Smith is, az that Grover
Cleveland pulled the Democratic Par
ty out of a deep hole in 1884.
Unless the Tammany delegation
bound here lands with cold feet. Gov.
Smith of New York may bring the
Empire State into the position it de-
serves.

in their testimony against her.
Nine, Georgette alleges that she

Walters was positive in his identl-
which was shown to him, and his de-

said that EIwell paid him rs cents
for the ride.
