during today's balloting, there lay
even back of that a chapter of con-
vention history that gave the dele
gates a welcome diversion from the
hum-drum of the balloting and con-
tributed much to the ultimate out
come of the days proceedings. 1t re-
Volved about the consolidation for
the first time of the anti-McAdoo
number of parliamentary proposals
that came formally before the con-
vention from the ranks of the Nc
Adoo followers.
Roosevelt Leads Revolt.
The alignment was perfected under
the generalship of Mr.. Roosevelt, who
brought together early in the session
several of those actively in charge of
favorite son booms and laid before
them a plan of cooperation which he
believed would hasten the end of the
deadlock. They agreed to it. and it
had it's fruition soon afterward on the
convention floor when the vote for
Smith was brought beyond the num-
Der necessary for veto, and a string
of resolutions brought forward by
McAdoo delegates, including pro-
posals to abolish the two-thirds and
unit rules and to adjourn the con-
vention to meet elsewhere, were
promptly voted down:
Smith was helped up the ladder MAIN
ly by the breaking up Of the solid bloc
of forty eight Ohio votes that had been
cast for Cox on the opening ballots
and later switched to Newton D.
Baker. Twenty of them went to
Smith and none to McAdoo. On the
seventy sixth ballot-the sixth of to-
days session-the New York COVER
nor had 1858, and he finished the day
with 367, the precise number neces-
sary to prevent any other candidate
from receiving the two-thirds neces-
sary to nominate. At adjournment
last night his total had been 334.
The total for McAdoo, which
touched it's high water mark of $50
yesterday and stood at last nights
adjournment at 528, f1uctuated within
narrow limits during today's voting,
and wound up on the seventy-seventh
ballot at 513. John w. Davis, in third
place, had seventy-six tonight, COM
pared with sixty-seven at the end of
last nj vht's session.

GEORGIA DELEGATES MAY
BE AIDED BY HOME FUND
Atlanta Paper Proposes Raising of
1000 Because Of Expense at
Prolonged Session.
By the Associated Press.

by tne Associated FretS.
ATLANTA, July 5. The Atlanta
Journal, in a front-page story to-
night, calls upon Georgia Democrats
to raise a fund of $4,000 for the
financial aid of those members of the
Georgia delegation "who have been
faced with unexpected financial bur-
dens in the matter of large hotel
bills and other expense through the
prolonged session of the Democratic
convention in New York City"
The story says that a majority of
the delegates from Georgia "are men
and women of limited means, salaried
men and women. farmers and farm
ers' wives. and men and women en-
gagged in small businesses. To these
the financial strain of the long stay
In New York Is more thar their re-
sources can stand"
The delegation is composed Of
fifty-six members with one-half vote
each. They are instructed as unit
for McAdoo.

COSTELLO STRIKES
FOE AT CONVENTION
Democratic National Committee
man Shoves James 0'Reilly

Special Dispatch to The Star.
NEW YORK, July 5.-John F. Co.'S
tello, Democratic national committee
man for the District of Columbia, and
James O'Reilly, a resident of the Ma
tional Capital, met in the entrance to
the convention hall, just beneath the
chairman's stand, this morning and
started to fight out an old difference.
Costello being a long man and
O'Reilly a short one, there was much
lodging and ducking among the pill
lars and rafters. Finally Costello
struck at OReilly and gave him a
shove that sent him down the stair
way to the basement.
Timothy T. Ansberry of the District
of Columbia, seeing the fist fight,
yelled for policeman and asked him
to arrest Costello.
Costello is voting for McAdoo and
Judge Ansberry has been opposing
him. O'Reilly would not discuss the
mixup. No one was hurt. but when
the row started dozens of delegates,
newspaper men and others, hearing
the outcry and seeing the commotion,
Jammed into the hallway.

are still receiving a few votes on
the ballots, but they are negligible.
1t may be also that any one OF these
will later come forward again in
bailoting. But the sum total to date
is that they are out
Those Left In Running.
The favorite sons and dark horses
who are still in the running are:
John w. Davis of West Virginia,
Senator Underwood Of Alabama, SEN
ator Glass of Virginia. Senator Rob-
inson of Arkansas, Gov. Richie of
Maryland and former Senator Sauls-
bury of Delaware.
One of the amazing features Of the
balloting has been the manner in
which for seventy-seven ballots the
Delaware delegation has cast its six
votes unvaryingly for salisbury.
There has been never a waver. Ex
cept on one ballot, the twenty-second.
there has been no other vote cast for
this candidate. On that ballot the
Salisbury total was twelve. The
delegation is here to stand by their
man until a nomination is made, or
until by throwing their six votes to
another, Delawareans can make the
necessary two-thirds to nominate.
This is an honor the delegation would
accept
The McAdoo forces have been able
very cunningly to lend strength to a
number of the dark horses so as to
give them a trial. but always with
the understanding that if the candi-
date to whom these delegates were
loaned did not go across. the dele
gates were to come back to the Nc
Adoo camp. OF course, the candidates
have not been able TO make the
grade, and the votes have eventu-
ally been snatched back to McAdoo.
Davis Boom Premature.
One of the dark horse candidates
who was touted as a probable winner
was John w. Davis. Mr.. Davis was
given his run too early, however,
largely through the Vaccinations of
the McAdoo management. Mr.. Davis
vote on the first ballot of the con-
the convention it was run up to
12Sh it's highest point He could
go no higher it appeared. and then
he began to go back, and on the
thirty-ninth ballot Mr.. Davis was
down to II again. On the final ballot
taken today he received 76k votes.
The McAdoo managers have de-
veloped their campaign in mastery
style Mr.. McAdoo's vote on the first
ballot cast was 43114. Gradually this
was increased until on the fifteenth
ballot, he had 479. Then began the
process of a few ballots later to try
out Mr.. Davis, and Mr.. McAdoo sank
to 412 on the twenty-eighth ballot
The word went round that McAdoo
was faltering. But what happened?
When it was seen that Mr.. Davis
could go no further, the votes began
coming back to McAdoo, and on the
fortieth ballot McAdoo had 5o51e
votes.
McAdOO Comes Back.
He was due to go backward, how
ever, until he reached the low mark
of 413k on the fifty-second ballot.
The word was passed that McAdoo
was to be showed below the 400 mark !;
that he would then be out of it, and
Gov. Smith would be given his try
out But it didn't work that way,
and on the fifty-eighth ballot Mr. Nc
Adoo again had 495 votes. On the
sixty-third he was again at the 446h

man. They are doomed to disap-
pointment The most the conference
can do and will do is to draw up a
plan whereby after a certain number
Of ballots all the low men in the
race will be temporarily eliminated
50 that the convention can express
itself on the two leaders. But the
committee may also place a limit on
the number of ballots that shall be
taken before both McAdoo and Smith
the convention revert to the favorite
sons who have been dropped, taking
them up in the reverse order in which
they were eliminated.
Change of Rules.
There is talk, of course, of abro-
eating the two-thirds rule, SO that a
majority can nominate, but with this
would have to come the lifting of
the unit rule from the state delega-
tions, so that individuals could vote
as they pleased.
Whatever the conference commit
tee decides must be ratified by the
convention, and it will take a two
thirds vote to suspend the rules and
adopt what the conference proposes.
Thus the McAdoo people can vote
what the conference suggests and
the deadlock will be unbroken. One
of the principal reasons for the
stubbornness of the McAdoo contin-
gent is their belief that the elimina-
ton of Smith and McAdoo will not
end the struggle for control of the
party, and that the withdrawal of
the New York governor will only
bring about a drive to name some
man like Senator Oscar Underwood,
held to be wet" and the man who
started the anti-Klan controversy in
the Democratic party by making 1t
an issue of his campaign. The Smith
forces then would accept Underwood,
but Bryan would not, and the leader
ship of the commoner in this conven-
tion is not insignificant The McAdoo
men talk little of compromise, but
when they speak do they speak of a dry
who is also a progressive they may
mean Home S. Cummings Of Connecti-
cut. or Cordell Hull Of Tennessee, or
Newton d. Baker of Ohio, or Sena-
tor Ralston of Indiana, or Senator
Glass or Senator Robinson. When
the, Smith men talk of a compromise
they mean Senator Underwood of
Alabama, or Gov. Ritehie of Mary
Land. or Gov. Silzer Of New Jersey, But
just now each side really means only
McAdoo and only Smith. The political
Moses who can lead his party out Of
the wilderness here has not yet become
visible to the naked eye.

dogged determination and resistance
dominate the factions.
Jealous for MeAdoo.
The McAdoo supporters seem to be
imbued with spirit of zealousness
in support of their chieftain which to
some degree approaches the Arma-

LOST MINES IN ARIZONA.
Legend Of Ancient Gold Diggings
in State Persists.
From the Popular Mechanics Magazine.

From the Popular MechanfcS magazine.
OF all the legends Of buried treas
ure the most persistent is the one
about the lost gold mines Of Arizona.
Only the Indians are supposed to pos
sess the secret Of this baff1ing mys-
terry, although the story has been
circulated for more than q century.
That there once were mines in the
region is indicated by references
found in early Spanish diaries and
by the tales passed down through
several generations Of natives who
were ecmpslled to dig the ore as
slaves OF their conQuerors. The chief
evidence In support of the tradition
Is the altar Of the San Xavier Mis-
sion. not far from Tucson. It IL de-
scribed as being ~inlaid with virgin
gold" Mission records show that the
precious metal was brought from
Canada del Orc. where II Was mined
by Indians under the direction Of
Spanish priests.
But no trace now exists Of the dig
Eings and the old trail over which
the gold is said to have been carried
by pack mules disappeara abruptly In
