however, and William Randolph
Hearst's hackers claim that even if
the o96 votes are cast for Smith. he
Will never be able to make up the
difference.
Smith sentiment was stronger
about the city tonight. There was a
general belief that the former gov
ernor would win the nomination. al
though in some quarters the posi-
billty of a hitherto unmentioned
candidate was still considered strong
~.
Mayor John r. Hylan, of Aew

ton figure during the day. 1t was
rumored that he had been offered
the subernatorial nomination by
Charles +. Murphy, Tammany chief
tain. The rumor was denied but per-
sistently cropped up again until the
MAYOR announced that he would
stand on his previous statements s.
mot to be candidate for any state
office"
While the Hearst Smith fight was
at its peak. the women delegates
came forward with two new demands
for recognition which may put a new
complexion on the already bcfogged
convention. The first WAS that Smith
be nominated. because he was first.

candidate" The second was that
