There Is, too, mysterious some
thing which warns blind man Of his

really no knowing what 1t Is. but If,

Deadlock in Contest
In Georgia Delegation
Fight On Committee Nom
nations Issue Between
Whites and Negroes

CHICAGO, June 1.-THE Georgia con-
test between the faction led by Henry
Lincoln Johnson, an Atlanta negro, and
Roscoe Pickett, to-day developed fur
Their complications in an effort to agree
upon a slate of committee nominations.
A series Of conferences resulted in a
deadlock and another attempt to settle
dicerences will be made tomorrow,
but with prospects of the whole fight
being taken anew to the Credentials
Committee
The white delegates, led by Pickett,
we're reported to have refused to meet
with the negroes. The johnson faction
had a majority of the delegation placed
on the temporary roll by the national
committee. They were uninstructed, but
reported to favor Governor Lowden, the
Pickett group being pledged to General
Wood. Considerable feeling was said to
have resulted from numerous but inef-
fectual efforts to get vote on commit
tee assignments. johnson was chosen
national committeeman at the state COM
vention, but when pressing his case be-
fore the national committee he agreed
to leave the place to some one else.
Some of the Pickett faction. tonight
expressed fear that the deadlock might
result in the unseating Of all Georgia
delegates by the credentials committee,
