NEW YORK, Aug. 2s.--There were
two separate and distinct price move
nents in the stock market today, the
industrial stocks were sluggish and
under pressure but rather concrete
signs OF accumulation In the railroad
stocks were much in evidence. While
there has undoubtedly been a rather
sharp falling off in the trade at the
various industrial centers, stiil II is
believed that the abundant crops and
large amount of traffic yet to be
moved to loosen up congestion on the
railroads, coupled with the sharp
freight increases ordered by the in
terstate commerce commission a
while ago should permit the railroads
of the country to show large earnings
for some time to come. The resiliency
shown In the rail department. OF the
stock list today should have n slibstan-
tiai effect on the investment situation.
soHed railroad stocks and bonds may
be expected TO increase from now on
even though the demand for this type
of securities be at the expense of n
quidatjon in crtain Industrial groups.

(BY UNITED PRESS

San Francisco, July 6-At Ali this morn
ing, coast time, after having balloted through
long night, the weary delegates to the Demo-
cratic convention were swept to the ranks of
the Ohio governor and James NJ Cox was nom
mated as the Democratic candidate for presi-
dent of the United States on the 44th ballot.
Since the start of the balloting Friday
when two ballots were taken, the race was dis
tlnctly three-cornered affair with McAdoo
Cox and Palmer as the cOntenders At no time
IN the rnning was there dark horse" that
came forward to threaten the leaders, In the
ba!lotlng Saturday Cox forged ahead from
Chlfd to first position where he remained
when the convention adjourned at midnight
Saturday night
Palmer made a squirt late Monday after
noon when his supporters made a mighty eff
fort to cause stampede to the attorney gen
eral. AS Monday night wore away, the even
ness OF the race reached the proportions of an
uncompromlSlng deadlock and it appeared
many times that clark horse" would have to
come forward in order for the convention to
reach decision, and it was not until the 41st
ballot that there was anapparent stampede to
any one candidate This was when the Cox
lead began to reach proportions that would in
dicate the winner. His lead recahed command
ing proportions on the 43rd ballot and on the
final vote, the 44th all delegates except one
state gathered under the banner of the Ohio
man.
On of the features of the voting from start
to finish was the unwaverng support the
handful of Owen followers gave to the Okla /
homa senator On practically every ballot
Owen received from 80 to SO votes, his average
raining around 35.
