gone to Crisfield for the boat races.
According to stories obtained from
survivors, all or nearly all or the peo-
nile aboard took to the water because
of the failure of attempts to launch
the lifeboats. They were picked up
by other craft which were attracted
to the scene of the blaze. Among
them were the Middlesex and the Al
iegheny. Of1cers of the Three Rivers
could not give the cause of the fire,
nor had they any theory to advance.

nation that they were SIS each Gov

"But perhaps the steering committee
can get those seats for me at the ad-
vertised price. which is $5.4o?"
The steering committee said. no, In
deed, 1t could do nothing OF the kind.
If it asked Flo Ziegfeld to cut rates
he would probably ask 1t $1s seat as
a rebuke.

to put a stop to unlawful conduct by
persons handling explosives. Ten ar

that the nomination of woman is
not beyond the disabilities.
The first business of the convention
today was the adoption of the per-
credentials committee. Then came
the committee on organization with
it's third party argument and this
was to be followed by report of
the resolutions committee, which
promised its platform early. The
Endorsement of La Toilette was ex-
pected to be the final action of the
convention before adjournment.
No Staged Demonstrations.
The credentials committee took no
action on. the case of William
Mahoney of St. Paul, who was re-
fused recognition. While he declined
to press for a decision, it was learned
that Mahoney had been critized for
calling the June IT convention at
st. Paul and had helped organize a
third party, without consulting with
the conference for progressive politi-
cal action.
Unlike the Republican and Demo-
cratic national conventions. there are
no staged demonstrations during the
convention.
Several times delegates have start
ed demonstrations, but they did so
spontaneously, and there was no ef-
fort on the part of the convention
leaders to prolong them.
The biggest demonstration came on
the definite announcement of Senator
La Follette's candidacy, but this last
ed less than two minutes.
Little effort was made to play to
the galleries. The huge spotlights
which lighted the stages at the Re-
publican and Democratic conventions
during every demonstration, to enable
news photographers to get photo
graphs and to lerd color to the set
ting, were conspicuous by their alb
Sence.
In fact. the convention in some re-
spects was more like church meet
ing than a national political conven-
tioi.: A mixed choir furnished the
music. with the delegates Joining in
congregational singing. while at the
morning session collection was
taken among the delegates and spec
tators to help defray the expenses of
the coming campaign. More than

GAS MASKS USELESS
 AGAINST NEW DEATH WEAPON IF GERMANS

PARIS, Mar. 2O-The new poison gas developed in Germany embodies carbon monoxide, in the opinion of the eminent French chemist, Dr. Pierre Louis Rehm, writing in the Matin. The German chemists, he says, probably have succeeded in getting solutions of metallic carbonyls, the microscopic particles of which are capable of pen etrating the filters of gas masks, and then giving off carbon monoxide. This gas is not only odorless and colorless, but is one of the deadliest known to science.
