GOVERNOR COX OF OHIO
DEMOCRATIC NOMINEE PRES.

Auditorium, San Francisco, July G
(by United Press)-Governor James
NJ Cox of Ohio, was nominated for
president on the Democratic ticket
on the forty-fourth ballot The nom-
ination was by acclamation when the
rules were suspended on motion of
the McAdoo leaders, who saw that
Cox had won the two-thirds vote. I'M
mediately the convention was thrown
into bedlam Of noise, led by the
Ohioans. Cox won the nomination at
1:42 Tuesday morning.
Cox was nominated when the Nc
Adoo leaders, seeing the tide sweep
ing towards Cox, moved the suspen-
sion of the rules and the nomination
of Cox by acclamation. Amid scenes
of tumultuous joy the motion was car
ried thunderously.
The deadlock was broken after the
38th ballot when Palmer withdrew
and released his delegates. Cox got
most of them, and as the balloting
progressed, gained steadily. McAdoo's
support began crumbling on the 41st
ballot. Cox made one of the most
spectacular, dogged, uphill fights for
nomination ever seen in any conven-
tion. Even after Palmer withdrew, it
looked like a continued deadlock be-
tween McAdoo and Cox, but McAdoo
held on, his delegates were overesti-
mated, and they gradually went to
Cox.
The following table shows how the
vote stood on each ballot:

ident Wilson wired to James M. Cox
this morning. A torrent of congrat-
ulatory messages are arriving.
Nominee Cox was at his newspaper
office when he received word of his
! nomination. He had been close to
I the press wire from the convention
throughout its sessions. His employees
carried him on their shoulders to the
front office. where Mrs. Cox had been
waiting all night. Tears streamed
from the eyes of both when the copy
of the first extra edition of Cox's
paper was handed to him.
After he had rested for few hours
at his home, the Democratic nominee
went alone to the cemetery and
prayed at his mothers grave. The
governors mother was at New
Years reception given by President
Cleveland at the White House in 1895.
She said to President Cleveland then:

tions of the railroad board at the end of a four-hour executive session which, from all accounts, was about the storiniest session of its kind in history. With the doors locked and senators bound not to reveal what took place inside, the senators vied with each other in saying all the un- kind things they wanted to about the administration.
 The debate centered around the name of G. w. Hanger, who was ap- pointed as a member of the public group for the two-year term. His was the only name on which record was taken. On the others they were confirmed by viva voce vote, and on practically all of them there were votes in the opposition. The roll call on the appointment of Hanger was 31 to 24, the opposition consisting entire ly of Republican senators, with the exception of the votes of Senators Reed and Thomas.
 It is understood that several points raised in opposition to Hangers ap- pointment was that he was related by marriage to the presidents family, his wife being a cousin of Mrs. Wilson.

RAIL LABOR BOARD TO TAKE
 REINS IN CRISIS
Confirmed by Senate-Wilson Calls
 Meeting for Today

The railway labor board, confirmed late yesterday by the Senate, was called by President Wilson to meet and organize today. In numerous towns striking switchmen have al ready voted to place their grievances in the hands of the labor board, and with it's organization the government the railroads and an early end to the unauthorized walkout.
 John Grunau, leader of the strike was arrested in Chicago, with six of his associate leaders, by agents of the Department of Justice.
 Officials of the Brotherhood of Rail- way Trainmen in Kansas City issued an ultimatum that striking switch men must return to work by Saturday morning, April IT, or forfeit their membership in the union. This ulti- matum was delivered to switchmen on all roads affected in the Kansas City area.
 Conditions are steadily improving in New York and in the west. Colum- bus and Dayton, Ohio, are still badly affected.
 Washington, April, 15.-The rail- road labor board, in whose hands may lie the settlement of the present strike, will meet for organization to- morrow morning. Following confir- nation of their appointments by the Senate, the president tonight address ed letters to each member. requesting that they start upon their task tomor- row. =.
 The advance guard of the board-J. H. Elliott and Horace Baker of the railroad group-arrived here today. ready to take up the work of adjust ing the railway wage controversy.
 The two members who arrived here today went directly to the White House, where they conferred for a short while with Secretary to the President Humility. They said their call was purely formal one. It is understood, however. that MT. Tumul- ty gave them a brief outline of the presidents plans for the procedure of the board.
 Later in the day they held con- ference with Director General of Rail- road Hines at the railroad admins tration. They discussed with him the question of quarters for the board and took brief survey of what informa- tion the administration has that will be of use in studying the wage prob- lem. Mir. Hines will turn over to the board when it assemblies all data in his possession bearing on the subject
 Some doubt was expressed by White House officials as to President Wilson receiving the board personally at the executive mansion upon it's formation. It appears certain however, that he will address a communication to the hoard at it's opening session.
