principles which he advocated. How

SMITH AND M'ADOO HAVE
RELEASED ALL DELEGATES

NEW YORK, July with sup
porters of William G.. McAdoo re-
leased and Gov. Alfred E. Smiths
withdrawal. conditional upon similar
action by the Californian. before
them, the delegates to the Demo-
cratic national convention had until
noon today to survey the new situa-
tion in which they were left at A.
NJ, after passing the century mark
in the balloting for a presidential
nominee.
The Smith announcement. which
followed a futile conference arranged
between the two contenders in an
effort to get them together on a
compromise candidate, was made at
the beginning of the long night ses-
sion. The only answer was O Nc
Adoo drive that put him once more
in the lead. Meanwhile, however,
in his listening post nearby, he was
comforting with a steady stream of
advisers, and intimation of his i'm
pending action were passed around
during the 99th roll call. Then a
Walsh releasing his delegates was
read, and the Tooth ballot was taken.
The McAdoo leaders said the latter
was in no way connected with the
Smith announcement, and 1t was so
phrased as not to put him in the po-
sition of formally withdrawing from
the race. The Smith leaders held
their lines, waiting to determine its
effect, whether their condition for
withdrawal had been met in fact If
not in words. Pronounced drifts set
in toward e. r. Meredith, of Iowa,
secretary of agriculture in the VIII
son cabinet, and Chairman Walsh,
of Montana. John w. Davis. of West
Virginia, doomed in the night session
after the final withdrawal of Senator
Ralston, of Indiana, at the peak of
similar drive during the day, held
most of his gains.
On the ninety-ninth ballot, Nc
Adoo had 1886 votes and Smith had
$50. On the next roll call, after
his letter was read. McAdoo dropped
to 100, while Smith held 351.5.
Davis, whose total had been driven
up from 6S at the end of the day
session to 210 on the ninety-ninth
ballot, was in third place with 203.5.
Meredith. who had been receiving
a favorite son vote from Iowa, from
the seth ballot through the 95th
and had then lost 1t back to Nc
Adoo during the evening drive, re-
turned on the 99th, with 81 and ad-
vanced on the Tooth to 1856. Chair
man Walsh's total jumped from
four to 52.5. Senator Robinson OF
Arkansas, also gained, going from
rs to 46.
Senator Underwood of Alabama.
who started the day with S9 on the
SSth ballot, ended with 41.5. Sena-
tor Glass of Virginia, given a tryout

to 35. Senator owen of Oklahoma,

BULLETIN

MADISON SQUARE GARDEN,
July 9:-The possibility of the Smith
managers throwing their support to
George S. Silzer for second place on
the ticket doomed here this afternoon
according to talk which seeped out
of the conference of the New York
governors friends. 1t is understood
the Smith group of leaders had the
Silzer candidacy before them and 1t
was highly endorsed. Smith will not
accept second place.
]. H. McCooey. Tammany leader,
declared in conversation on the floor
this afternoon that nothing could
change AIS mind" This further inn
proved Jerseys chance to land Sill
zer.
BY LEO j. LANNING
Special Representative OF Evening
News at New York Convention
MADISON SQUARE GARDEN.
July 9.-Governor Silzer's support
ers today saw new possibility for
their candidate in the imminent
forces. Now is the time, they ar
gued, for New York to show her
gratitude for jerseys solid backing
of the 100 ballots which this conven-
ton has registered. OF course, most
of the governors supporters really
consider him for the vice presidential
nomination and upon the geogra-
ph:cal location of the man eventually
selected to head the ticket will de-
pend the Silzer chances for second
place.
Mayor Hague could not be located
at noon today to obtain his thoughts
upon the situation respecting New
Jersey and her candidate. He was
reported as being in the conference
of Smith generals, where, 1t was
said he would plead the cause of Mr..
Silzer. Wherever the Smith block
of votes goes, it is believed New
Jersey will follow as part of the COM
bination which has backed New
York's governor.
1t will be Hague's part to so shape
the course of this group of states SO
as to get something for New Jersey.
If Governor Smith should refuse to
submit his name for vice president
the SilZer chances would increase
materially for this honor.
New Jerseys executive Is very
good eastern offering to mate with
a western man for the head of the
ticket. The way the twenty-eight
votes of New Jersey have supported
Smith is the cause of great apprecia-
ton by all New Workers. Il am more
proud of New Jersey than of myself"
declared Augustus Thomas, the dra-
maitst speaking with Colonel Moses
Greenwood of Montclair, delegate
from New Jersey. Thomas Is In the
New York delegation.
Any one wearing a New Jersey
badge boosting the Silzer candidacy
has the right of way with New York
ers from doorkeepers and policemen
to big Empire State politicians. One
of these badges carries more weight
with Smith followers and New York
people than the official delegate
credentials. New Jerseys ninety bal
lots for Smith, of course, is the rea-
son for this affection.
On the first roll call this afternoon
New Jersey gave Underwood 16 and
Glass 10. This was a significant
move and was ordered by Hague
who came on the floor to speak with
the states delegates Immediately af-
ter conference of Smith field gener-
ais adjourned.
