STRATEG|STS PLAN
COALITION AGAINST
FORD AND NJ ADOO
Underwood, RaIston and Al
Smith Runored Combina-
ton Stirs Up Excitement
in Democratic Ranks

WASHINGTON, Sept. 15.-A Dem
ocratic coalition against Henry Ford
and William G.. McAdoo is being
formed by packers of other Demo
cratic aspirants.
The Underwood, Ralston and Al
Smith campaign strategists are talk
ing about such a coalition. Their
plan is to eliminate Ford and Nc
Adoo and then fight it out among
themselves for the nomination.
AS a result the air about Demo
cratic headquarters here is full OF
rumors and mystery. Tom Taggart,
Indiana Democratic chieftlan;
George Brennan. Illinois; Ed Moore,
Ohio: Robert Scott, of Pennsylvania;
all noted Democratic strategists,
have been fitting about Washing
ton mysteriously for the past few
days, keeping themselves and their
activities under cover.
AS a result of the visits here, nego-
tiations for coalition have progress
ed to g degree that has put new en-
ergy into McAdoo boosters, who Will
do their best to checkmate before
hand the effects such a powerful
joining of their opponents would pro-
duce.
The whole situation promises an
increase in Democratic activity with
in the next sixty days, which may be
far towards determining the line up
| in the 1924 convention. Some of the
| visiting Democratic chieftians
| brought confidential word here that
Il Ford McAdoo coalition was being
worked out in certain localities. This
appears to be in line with the plans
| of the McAdoo forces to use Ford s
| undoubted popular strength to put
! McAdoo over as the Democratic NOM
| inee McAdoo men have been spread
! ing the word among organizers of
| Ford sentiment that Ford will not
accept the nomination, even If 1t is
offered him; that he will certainly
make no fight to get it and that the
| hope of the progressive elements in
the Democratic party lies in combin-
ing behind McAdoo.
But they have also advised the
Ford workers to go on organizing for
Ford, with the idea of masking Nc
! AdOo's real strength until conVen-
ton time.
Then a lot of Ford delegates would
be disclosed as really McAdoo dele
gates in disguise.
1t is to prevent such a plan sue
ceeding that the proposed Under
wood Ralston-S Smith union is pro
posed.
SO far as surface indications &C
Underwood and RalstOn today are
the most active candidates. The
Underwood publicity is politically ex
tensive and the Alabama senator s
friends report a gratifying response
to his candidacy.

STATE CLAIMS NEW
EVIDENCE IS FOUND
IN ". s. WARD CASE

WHITE PLAINS, N. Y, Sept. 16.
New evidence is claimed to have
been discovered concerning the life
of Walter S. Ward, millionaire
bakers son and the blackmail plot
which is believed connected with
the Staying of former marine, Clar-

Attorneys conducting the special
prosecution against Ward in making
this announcement promised to lay
the new information before the
court when the formal trial for
murder is begun Monday.
To complete the new story the
state is pressing hard to serve

summons has been issued and in
structions given to deputies that If

Attorneys for the defense are
fighting hard to prevent Mrs. Ward
from going on the stand. While she
is legally guarded from testifying

to reveal some details Of Wards

The Mob Is Wild
Now back to the crowd as the fu-
sillade began. Rome must have
heard similar mob yells in the days
when gladiators fought for their
lives. in the coliseum, although there
was no radio brcadCasting from that
arena. From Winnipeg to Browns
vile, and possibly in Honolulu in
homes of culture there were repro
duced by modern electrical magic
a roar of profanity, a yell from
100000 threats, the kind of cry
that comes from the human pack
in the preseRce of bloodshed in a
fight that has their whole-souled at
tention.
There were more threats distended
in battle cries than were heard on
Little Round Top at Gettysburg. II
the liberty of the world had depend
ed on the blows being exchanged
in that 24-foot square, the excite
ment, the anguish, the anger could
not have been more intense.
Transcribed by some super-stenog-
raphe1s these cries might be indeXed
into the thickest dictionary of pro-
family yet conceived. Here was a
generous audience for fifty theaters
receiving a veterinarians dose of
drama IN a single gulp.
Roar of the Human Pack
Who yelled for Luis and who
yelled for Jack matters not. The
roar of the human pack affected the
result not one single particle, unless
it be that it served to remind the
conscious champion that there were
yet many dollars to be earned by
one who would stand up and take
it. But they yelled just the same,
as an overheated boiler gives off
steam.
None in the crowd sat down dur
ing this fight from the moment OF
that first rush of Dempsey's that
caused him to slip to his knees. A
champion was down. 1t was time
for ordinary mortals to stand. There
were moments when this swarm
that reckons millions as success,
thought they were seeing the Gre
alton of a new millionaire, a new
Argentine millionaire. If any. indi-
vidual among the crowd should rise
tomorrow in the presence of his
friends and kirfolks and yell as each
individual yelled tonight lunacy
commission would be assembled to
decide upon an asylum for him.
These yells We're the exclamation
of the crowd. They had come for
an emotional debauch, and they had
achieved it with four minutes of the
essence Of emotion.

labor and furnishings. Even the
Levites who served at the altar must
suspend their services until the holy
place was built and thoroughly fur
