CONN. DELEGATE HOME
Delegate Palmer Arrives Ahead of Other Members-Talks About Con- ycntiou and Homer Cummings

vention and Homer Cummings.
 New Haven. July 12.-U. s. Mar shall W. R. Palmer of the Connec- ticut delegation to the San Francis co convention came home ahead of the rest and was here last night. To- day the marshal said that the Con- necticut delegation had an honest conviction that Homer s. Cummings would be an acceptable compromise candidate for the presidency and so it kept his name in the list. It had been figured that if the deadlock continued considerable longer time than it did a break would favor MT. Cummings. When Palmer withdrew, however, Cox and McAdoo got the delegates and Cummings did not ben eft as expected.
 MT. Palmer said he was surprised that the convention gave so little at- tention to the Bourke Cochran reso- lution favoring light wines and beer. His opinion was that the delegates accepted prohibition as a fact and the Volstead law one to be enforced until congress changed it.
