Men Go to Convention

DAYTON, Ohio, June 19-Dayton
citizens and Ohio Democrats joined to-
day in community demonstration for
Governor James NJ. Cox, Ohio's candi-
date for the Democratic nomination for
President. The demonstration was a
prelude to the departure of Ohio's del
egaton to the San Francisco conven-
ton, every one of whom is pledged to
vote for the Governor.
Several thousand admirers of Gov
error Cox made the pilgrimage to the
Suburban home of the Governor, fol-
lowing a parade of political organiza-
tions through the business section Of
the city this afternoon.
At the Governors home addresses
were made by United States Senator
James Z. Campbell, delegates atlarge
to the convention. Governor Cox re-
sponded by wishing the delegation a
happy journey.
Members of the Ohio delegation and
other Democratic leaders expressed
qualification over the announcement by
William G. McAdoo that he is not q
candidate and that his name must not
be presented to the convention. Gov
ernor Cox made no comment on Mr.
McAdoo's statement
Two special trains bearing the Ohio

declared that he was not even "a re
ceptive candidate" for permanent
chairman of the Democratic National
Convention.
Nr. Colby said:
"The report persists that 7 am to be
permanent chairman of the Demo
cratic convention. This report has no
foundation. The organization OF the
convention and the choice of its officers
are matters which the convention it
self will decide.
II am not even a receptive candi-
date for the position Of permanent
chairman. There are many members
of the party with much stronger claims
upon its recognition and who richly
deserve any honor in its gift. am
going 10 the convention with no other
thought than to cooperate heartily
with my fellow delegates from the
District Of Columbia and TO partici-
pate IN the deliberations of the CON
vention modestly and hope hclpfully.
II shall leave at the last possible
moment and return to my duties in
Washington the moment the conven-
ton ad journs"

Palmer Issues Warning
On Selling Agreements
Dealers Are Told Even Oral
Contracts to Maintain
Prices Are Illegal

WASHINGTON. June Warming
that agreements between manufacture
ers and dealers which prevent dealers
from reducing the selling priccs of
manufactured articles is unlawful was
sounded to-day by the Department of
Justice as part of its campaign to
lower the cost of living.
Indictments recently were obtained
against the Colgate Company, Attor-
ney General Palmer stated, charging
criminal violations of the Sherman act
TOY procuring agreements with dealers
to adhere to fixed resale prices. Alb
sence of formal contracts will not
avoid the provisions Of the law, &C
cordng to the Attorney General, as
in the Colgate case the agreements in
some instances consisted in the ex-
change Of letters or in purely oral
conversations.
General reduction in prices is cx-
pected by officials of the department
as a result of the clear definition of
the law. as it is said that many mer-
chants have been unable to cooperate
in the campaign to lower living costs
because of the fixed prices on certain
manufactured articles.

McAdoo Seen Available
Not Decided When New
York's 90 Votes Are To
Be Delivered to Cox
From a stor Correspondent


COLORADO SPRINGS, Col, Juno 10
con board the Tammany Hall special
train, en- route to San Francisco ).-Tam-
many leaders on their way to the Dem
ocratic National Convention, after
showing their pleasure over the fact
that William G. McAdoo has refused to
become a candidate for PRECEDENT, now
are beginning to show fear that with
McAdoo out of the race they may be
forced to prevent President Wilson
from obtaining the nomination for a
third term.
The Presidents statement of Friday,
IN which he said: II have not raised
my hand or voice to aid in the promo
Presidential nomination. and | shall not
DO so,' is regarded by Tammany lead
ers on the official train as an open bid
for a denomination. Tammany had be-
lieved that the President would support
the McAdoo candidacy until the Presi-
dents and McAdoo's statements were
published
The impression among the New York
delegates is that the Presidents name
will be placed before the convention. If
that is done, Tammany is prepared to
lead the fight against the President.
McAdoo Believed Available
Not all Of the Tammany delegates
regard McAdoo's statement as a with
drawal of his candidacy. They said
after reading the statement, that Nc
Adoo only announced that he was not
an active candidate, and that he was
placing himself in a position to be
forced to accept the nomination.
Representative Thomas F. Smith, who
is leading the Tanaq1any delegates who
are on this train, told the following
story in discussing the McAdoo state
ment:
There was a Kentucky Colonel who
signed the pledge but who stocked his
cellar with whisky just before the
country went dry. His wife asked
him what he wanted with all of that
liquor
This is for medicinal purposes,
the Colonel replied. "If | get sick, be
sure to get me some, and if won't
take it, make me-"
McAdoo's statement has helpec
Tammany in one way, however. Most
Of the New York delegates are strong
ly opposed to McAdoo, and they left
New York with the intention of pre-
venting his nomination if possible
! lNSi 1t was SOlIiS HllfhuOO SeilliIitiIb II
the delegation, though, but now the
Tammany leaders believe that New
York can give it's united support te
/ the candidacy Of Governor James G
Cox, of Ohio, who has been the choice
of most Of the delegates. It has not
been decided as yet just when the
ninety New York votes will be thrown
- Cox, but Governor Smith will ge,
them on the first ballot.
Representative Smith received
telegram from Assistant Secretary OF
| the Treasury Jouett Shouse, late to.
day, in which Mr.. Shouse said that, in
view of Mr.. Adoos withdrawal, he was
in favor of the nomination of Senator
! Glass, of Virginia. Shouse asked Mr.
/ Smith what he thought of Senate,
Glass's availability. Mr.. Smith sale
that evidently the McAdoo men believe
that McAdoo really is out of it.
