Rumors Interest Crowds.
! The rumors are interesting the
crowds tonight. One is that some
delegation is going to break the
deadlock by boldly throwing Its vote
! to Wilson. Between the Office hold
ers who would have to join in and
/ the large number OF delegates who
are saying cynically that the Pres
Iident should take the licking he has
prepared for his party, there Is a
possibility that this stroke might
win.
The other is that McAdoo will send
a telegram insisting on withdrawal
of his name and declaring that he
would not accept IL nominated. The
difficulty about this Is that there Is
hardly one of McAdoo's friends who
would make public such message,
and il announced by an enemy 1t
would not be believed.
Unable TO Put Over McAdoo.
| Mr.. McAdoo's managers have put
him in a ridiculous aud untenable
position. The whole theory of his
candidacy is that the nomination is
| being forced upon him against his
will by the spontaneous action Of
an overwhelming majority of the
convention. But the fact remains
that the herculean efforts of an
army of officeholders have failed to
get him a majority OF the votes in
twenty-five ballots. and that to
work up the spontanelty of his
boom his supporters have forced an
adjournment over Sunday on q dis

London, July 4.-Commenting edi-
tcrially on the Democratic national
convention at San Francisco the
Manchester Guardian says:
1T is never easy for the British
public to unravel the moaning of an
American party convention, and GER
tainly the present convention is no
exception to this rule. There are
two things to note, however: First.
the strength of the Wilson following
and the great skill II Is using; and
second, the continued power of
Bryan, despite his three disastrous
campaigns for the Presidency"

For the McAdoo fight has in it about

semblance, to the Bull Moosers.
Dry Leader Unpertsrbed.
Opposing the decent group amid
McAdoo forces one man sat unper-
turbed. He was Wayne Wheeler.
head of the Anti-Saloon League. He
grinned complacently as the Cox
vote rose. He knew that Cox might
have as his highest 900 votes. then
Cox was through. The Anti-Saloon
League had carefully polled the
convention before the delegates left
home and the Anti-Saloon League
had enough anti-Cox pledges to stop
Cox.
He was the man they feared most
as a candidate. Colby. of course, is
rather friendly against the principle
of prohibition, but being a lawyer
has his pride in law enforcement.
Palmer has squared himself with
the Anti-Saloon League in many
public utterances. and the league
will accept McAdoo or Davis or
Cummings. but IL is thumbs down
for Cox and Edwards, and the check
'ofNCox onsthe seventeenth and eigh-
teenth ballot Is due more to the
Anti-Saloon League than an any
other force. The big booze bosses
have laughed a good bit and hooted
at Wayne Wheeler. of the Anti-Sa-
loon League. but he was able to take
the cup gently but quite firmly from
their lips just as they were about
to drink hearty.
With the situation a. II Is, Cox
can hardly hope TO go over. With
Palmer struggling through twenty
