By the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
BALTIMORE, June 3.-Mary-
lands 24-man delegation to the Ma
tional Democratic Convention will
leave for Chicago next month with
out single word of official advice
regarding possible fourth term for
President Roosevelt.
Delegates to the State convention
held yesterday heard no mention,
whatever, of a fourth term and they
took no action related to the Roose-
velt administration except to COM
mend the President-and Congress
for the prosecution of the war
Also approved was a resolution
praising our relations with the rest
of the world under the skillful guild
ance of President Roosevelt and
Secretary of State Hull"
Rayburn Lauds Party.
One of the few references to the
coming general election came in the
keynote address of Speaker Ray
burn, who asserted that the Demo-
cratic party is best equipped to lead
the Nation through the difficult days
that are ahead
Lacking a mandate from the elec-
torate because there was no prefer
entail primary among Democratic
voters on May !, the convention
decided that the delegation to the
national conclave in Chicago should
20 uninstructed.
The convention was empowered to
instruct the delegation for President
Roosevelt, for favorite son, or for
still another potential candidate, but
took none of these actions in follow
ing the line set up Thursday night
at a caucus of influential party fig
ures, headed by Gov. O'Conor.
State Sets 18 Votes.
The "a delegates named to repre-
sent the State in the national con-
vention will have three-fourths of
a vote each, giving Maryland 18
votes.
There had been some speculation
prior to the convention that the
gathering would see a floor fight
over instruction of the delegation,
but this was obviated by the action
of the caucus. The State has a
heavy Democratic registration ma
jority.
Perhaps the most fortnight in
dorsement of the present national
administration came at the close of
the resolution commencing the
prosecution of the war. The closing
paragraph said:
"It Is obvious that the continual
ton of a Democratic national ad-
ministration and Congress will pre-
vent any interruption of the war
effort and offers the best insurance
for the steady completion of the
war"
Praises Gov. O'Conor.
The convention adopted another
resolution, praising Gov. O'Conor's
State administration for being alert
to the protection of States rights,
and adding:
I'VE commend this attitude which
Is in keeping with the traditions of
our State, and upon the completion
of the war we call for the prompt
return of full State authority in all
normal fields of State activity"
Among the national convention
delegates are John S. White, speak
er of the House of Delegates, and T.
Howard Duckett, both Of Prince
Georges County, and Col. E. Brooke
Lee and Eugene E. Casey, Mont
gomery County.

Chicago Bids
for (oneIaves
Wants Both Porty
Conventions There

CHICAGO. Jan. g. tP' -
Chicago wants to play host 10
the Republican and Democratic
national conventions this year
and is ready to offer leaders OF
the parties $4,000 each as an
added inducement TO convene in
the midwest metropolis.
A decision to bid for the two
Presidential nominating con-
clapes- was reached yesterday al
conference of 26 members OF
citizens committee of business
and industrial leaders.
A formal bid of $4,000 will
be made TO the Republican
National committee at its meet
ing here next Tuesday by Silas
H. StraWn. the citizens commit
tee chairman. A similar bid will
be made in Washington Jan. %
to the Democratic national COM
mittee when it meets to set a
time and place for its conven-
ton. Mayor. Edward j. Kelly,
Illinois national committeeman
and honorary chairman of the
citizens group, probably will
submit the city's bid.
The committee said that in
addition to the financial offer
ing, there were other factors
favoring Chicago's selection by
the national committees. These
included travel facilities and
adequate hotel accommodation
The committee estimated that
approximately 10000 persons
would attend each convention
and said the best time for the
meetings would be in late June
or late July.
Republicans have held II con-
ventlons here, the Democrats
six, and tWice-l884. and 1882

We're very curious.
The card itself is buff-colored
from the passage of time
and the printed stamp on it
shows picture of President
Mckinley 1843-1901

Office for several years after
McKinley's death. The card
