Murphy Lieutenant Pre-
diets Ex-Secretary Will
Be Nominated on the
Fourth or Fifth Ballot
For Smith First
Then Band Wagon
Lunn Will Challenge Unit
Rule if Wet Plank Gets
to Convention Floor
By Charles T. White

SAN FRANCISCO, July 1.-Leaders
Of the New York delegation after ad-
journment of this mornings session
of the Democratic National Conven-
tion admitted that all the indications
pointed to the nomination of ex-Scc-
retary William G.. McAdoo on the
fourth or fifth ballot.
"McAdoo has within about 100 votes
of the necessary two-thirds to nomi-
nate him." said one of Charles F.
Murphy's lieutenants to The Tribune
correspondent.
There is still chance that a COM
bination can be effected that will bring
about the nomination of some one else.
but at this time it does not seem likely
that McAdoo can be beaten for the
nomination. The Federal officeholders
are in control of the. convention. At
every turn we feel the power of the
Wilson machine. We cannot kick. We
are used to that sort of thing whe
we have control. New York Will vote
for Governor Smith for several bal
lots, but probably we shall ultimately
join in the procession and make Nc
Adoo's nomination unanimous.
Won't Sponsor McAdoo Attack
Asked about a reported attack by
Tammany men on Mr. McAdoo for be-
ing attorney for Charles W. Morse, who
went to prison for violation of the
banking laws, this Tammany leader
said:
"Tammsny is not taking anv part in
antl-McAdoo propaganda further than
to try to get support for Smith. We
tackled from the convention floor for his
connection with Morse. Tammany
cannot sponsor any attack of that sort,
for the reason that Morse used to be
one of us"
Norman f. Mack, of Buffalo, natona!
committee from New York, after 6
conference last night of the New York
leader said
"No~ York is fo~ Smith We cannot
tell yet where 've shall go if it is found
that Smith cannot win Illinois is at
swing to Cox The McAdoo people as
vet do not command the situation. They
have about $50 or 3i5 sure votes. The
bandwagon jumpers will begin to jump
after the first ballot. New York will
be slow to leave Governor Smith"
Appeal for Unit Rule

with reference to the observance of

rule on the New York matter as soon

he wanted information in advance. Mr..

ALI Efforts of Ants to
Unite on Candidate to
Defeat SOn-in-Law of
President Prove Futile
Palmer's Votes
For Ex-Secretary
Burleson Says Cox Will
Be Selected as Vice.
Presidential Candidate
By Carter Field

SAN FRANCISCO, July 1.-The
nomination of William G.. McAdoc
seemed almost certain when the con.
vention met tonight An all-night
conference of anti ti-McAdoo leaders
last night, followed by many pow
vows to-day, made no progress what
ever. Even those attending the con-
ference admitted that no candidate
was mentioned who seemed even to
a majority of the antiMcAdoo lead
ers to measure up.
Postmaster General Burleson, one
of the leaders Of the McAdoo forces,
said late tonight that it looked as
though Governor Cox of Ohio would
be nominated for Vice President
with McAdoo. Told that the report
was that Cox would not accent Sec
ond place, Mr.. Burleson waved his
hands.
"There is no doubt about that"
he said. "Cox will accept the nomi-
nation and the ticket of McAdoo and
Cox will lie elected"
Heart has been put into the anti
McAdoo men by the terrific attack
being made in the local Hearst
papers on the Grown Prince" In
addition, "The San Francisco Chron.
icle" is banging away at the Presi-
dents son-in-law, so that all together
the delegates are being given q
pretty good sample of what the Re.
publican press may be expected tc
do during the campaign if McAdoc
is the nominee.
Steam Roller Unteterred
But nothing has delayed the Ad-
ministration steam roller for a mo.
ment so far, despite the desperate
efforts of those who believe that
nominations and platform planks die
tated from Washington, followed by
campaign made almost exclusively
on the record of Woodrow Wilson, is
little short of suicide.
A curious sidelight on the lengths
to which the nti-McAdoo leaders are
going cropped up in the Minnesota
delegation Jenny Lind, daughter OF
John Lind, the Presidents special mis-
sionary who tried to persuade Huerta
to relinquish the dictatorship in Mex
leo, is an alternate.
j. Mealey, one of the delegates, has
gone home. So it had been arranged
that Miss Lind should vote for Mea!ey
1t was learned, however, that Miss Lind
was for McAdoo, and the program was
promptly wrecked by friends of Fred
B. Lynch, the retiring national commit
teeman, who is for Palmer.
The utter lack of harmony in the
antiMcAdoo camp is demonstrated on
the question of Administration and
anti administration. Without the
Palmer vote the anti-McAdoo strength
become insignificant, and the truth is
that the Palmer strength cannot be de-
livered solidly to any other candidate
against McAdoo. In fact, probably
more than half of the Palmer votes
would swing in line behind McAdoc
just as cheerfully as they are sup
porting Palmer.
There are many exceptions. as fol

To Be Heard ON Japan
Colby Assures They Will Be
Consulted Before Treaty Terms
Are Definitely Fixed

PHOENIX, Ariz., Nov. 2S-Negota-
tion between Japan and the United
States will be discussed informally
with members of the Senate and House
committees before any action is taken,
according to a telegram to Governor
Thomas f. Campbell from Secretary of
State Colby. The telegram was in
reply to one from Governor Campbell
in protest against reported execution
of new treaty with Japan. Secretary
Colby's message follows:
Replying to your telegram based
upon press dispatches relative to nego-
tiations with Japan, it is, of course, ap-
parent to you that the subject is one
that does not admit Of free and oDen
discussion by telegram
"The views reflected in your tole-
gram are we'll understood and can as
sure you that they are receiving the
most studious and open minded consd-
Grafton. 1t is our intention to avail
ourselves of the aid of the informal
discussion with members of the Senate
and House committees who are charged
with responsibilities in this CON
nection.
"The negotiations, which are infor-
NAL and tentative, have not, however,
as yet reached the point of discussion
and of formal consideration"
Governor Campbel's protest had
cited what were said to be Japanese
efforts to control production of food

New Science Church
Begins Rule To-day
Proclaims Self Successor to
Mrs. Eddy; Arguments i'm

in Mass. Supreme Court
Special Dispatch to The Tribune

BOSTON, Nov 2S.--Carrie Barbour
Galyon, proclaiming herself the God
ordained successor of Mary Baker Eddy
as leader of the Christian Science
Church, to-day announced completion
of her plans for High Church Of
Christian Science, which, she says, is
the upgrowth of the church Mrs Eddy
founded, and the consequence of litiga-
ton which has disrupted the church
organization.
Mrs. Galyon, from her Beacon Street
home, made announcement that coin
cident with court decision in the
matters of the trustees, directors, first
members and publishers of Christian
Science tomorrow in the Supreme Court
the High Church will assume authority
and place throughout the world. Mrs.
Galyon said:
81 was revealed to the church and
its governors as Mrs. Eddy's successor,
but they refused to accept me. | am
the God-ordained leader called by God
through vision, and the governors
knew it, but denied me. Yet they pos
sess full proofs of my appointment.
"Christian Science has been betrayed
by the men in whom its founder placed
full confidence. For months it has been
posted and pilloried in tribunals where
the law and teachings of Mrs. Eddy
have not governed. Tomorrow the
judgment Of earthly courts will be
pronounced and Christian Science will
be rent asunder. A new church will
arise and follow me, and there will be
new writings and teachings to guide
u.s."
OF the new church movement, Mrs.
Galyon said:
There could be no church Of Chris
tian Science except Higher Church,
grown out of the seed sown by Mrs.
Eddy and fostered ard nurtured by
her true followers, up to the time
that her laws were disregarded and
men were called in to interpret her
teachings in other than a spiritual way.
1t is such a church which will lead.
While the matters of the church
powers have been in the state courts
the true followers of Christian Science
have rallied to the true cause of Chris
tian Science and are now following
the teachings Of the High Church,
which will flourish from this time on"
Mrs. Galyon declared that the Eng
lish pretender to the leadership of the
High Church had sworn allegiance to
the new leader and had been working
for several months in the formation of
the new church, which would be opened
Immediately to thousands of followers
of Mrs. Eddy's teachings who have ac-
cepJed the later writings of Mrs.
Calyon.
Arguments in the Christian Science
cases will begin tomorrow morning
before the full bench of the Massa-
chusettS Supreme Court

Council Meets To-day
Common Memorial Day Is
One of the Planks i'm the
Plan of Organization

PARIS, Nov. 2s (By The Associated
Press) An international council
binding together the war veterans as
sociations Of the Allied countries was
organized here to-day by delegations
representing the United States, France,
Great Britain, Italy, Belgium, Greece
Jugo-Slavia and Czecho- -Sovakia, and
was Joined later by Portugal, Poland
and Rumania.
The council will be composed OF one
member from each country and prob
ably will meet in Paris as often as nee
membership of all national veterans
associations.
To Preserve Unity
The underlying idea is to preserve,
particularly in time of stress, the
unity that existed among the Allies
during the war and carry on the COM
radeship in various ways, notably by
international membership cards, an in
tenational decoration day and the ex-
change Of information respecting dis
abled soldiers and the widows and
children Of soldiers. 1t is expected
that the American Decoration Day will
be adopted generally.
The plan of organization, which will
be submitted for approval at full
meeting Tomorrow, specifies that the
council will be directly represented in
each Allied country by two veterans Of
that country appointed by the council
and approved by the veteran organiza-
ton of that country, one Of these vet
Grams to be accredited to the govern
ment of that country and the other to
the press.
Americans Present
They wiz simply be channels for the
transmission of memorials formulated
by the council. Such memorials must
be approved by the veterans assoca-
tion of that particular country and
must be of friendly nature, never
threatening.
The veterans of the United States
were represented to-day by seven
members of the American Legion posts
IN Paris and London, chosen by the ma
tlonal commander. They included
Colonel o. N. solbert. Military At
tache at London.
The Greek delegation was unable to
take an active part in the proceedings,
two of its members being Venizclists
and the other two royalsts, and they
were unable to agree.
