the tenth ballot at- o'clock last night. A demonstration immediately was started by the Clar men. Up to the tenth there had been but little change in the vote of the Various states from the first ballot tiken, as daylight broke niter un all night session yesterday morning. It was. a monotonous succession of ioI I calls.

During the demonstration a Clark enthusiast grabbed tho standard of the Massachusetts delegation, that state not having votd. A scramble in which the Wilson and Clark men indulged resulted. The riot was short-lived and the balloting on the tenth resumed. There were several fisticuffs on the floor while the demonstration was on. Those who claimed to be In the confidence of tlie New York delegates predicted there would lie a switch away from Clark in subsequent ballots.

When Ninth Ballot Is Beared. The results of the roll calls up through the ninth were discouraging-ly similar. None of the leading candidates made any material gains or losses. There was no change of more than six votes In the totals up to that time. On tho seventh Wilson and Clark each lost one vote.

Bryan. Kern, Ollle James and Mayor Gaynor of New York each received one or two votes in the course of the balloting. Harmon lost slowly but steadily from his 14S of the first ballot. Underwood gained a trifle. The heat or tho hull was stifling and the proceedings dragged heavily.

The delegates gossiped among themselves or perused newspapers. The leaders of the various fait Ions hurried about the hall. The air was full of rumors of "deals" and "trades." A shift that would throw a deciding vote to one candidate or another was looked for on every ballot by some of the delegates, while others expected an all night session. The crowded galleries and floor suffered In the muggy heat that settled over the big room. Move to Break Two-Thirds Bule.

Baltimore, June 29. When the convention was called to or.ler at 1:06 this afternoon the hall was crowded and there was prevailing talk on the lloor that several breaks were imminent and that an early decisive ballot was likely. The 11th and 12th ballots, however, showed uo marked changes from the final ballot last night, when the sensation of the change from Harmon to Clark was made by the New York delegation. Neither did the 13th ballot show any indication of the predicted break.

Oklahoma ami Kansas stuck to Clark and the other states voted practically the same as they did on the 11th and 12th ballots. Tho following was the resmt of the 13th ballot: Clark, .13 Wilson, 33li 1-2; L'nilerwood, 11.1 1-2; Huinion, 129; Marshall, 3u; Foss, Bryan, 1. The Fourteenth Ballot. The 11th ballot resulted in very little change Irom the former ballot, resulting In no nomination. There was great change in the line-up, Kansas, Missouri, Oklahoma and New York voting lor Clark with no promise ot' an early break.

The result of the; 14th ballot was as follows: ('lark, Wilson, 362; Underwood, 113; Harmon, 30; Bryan, Kern, 2. The most marked change in this bullet was the casting of 12 votes by the Nebraska delegation lor Clark, vhile others cast their votes for candidates. Bryan Starts Something. It was at this time, when Nebraska was called on tho roll call, that Bryan, under the guise of explaining tht change of the vote in the Nebraska delegation, got another hearing in the convention. "As long as New York votes lor Champ 1 withdraw my vote irom him," he said.

This set the convention it: an uproar.

Ten ballots were taken last night, the New York delegation ROinf? from Harmon to Clark on the tenth ballot. Convention called to order at this afternoon, with an early break in the line-up predicted, but it failed to materialize up to the fifteenth ballot.

Predicted that the deadlock might continue for another week, ami it Is suggested that a reres of a week or more be taken and the convention reconvene in another city. Such a plan is not prolmblc. Sensation is sprung during; the taking of the fourteenth ballot when Bryan announce that so long as Clark receives the votes of the "Murphy-Kyan-Helmont-Morgan" crowd lie will not. vote fur Clark. Speech is wildly cheered, but.

results in little change, in the result of the ballot. Ilefore the convention meets, Chairman Mack calls the national committee together in un attempt to break the deadlock.

This would indicate that Mr. Maher had filed as a socialist, but he refuses to stand (or it and culled the attention of the Sua to the mistake today, and this paper hastens to correct tho mistake. Mr.

Maher says that he may change hia politics, but he prefers to do it himself, and for the present be sees no reason for inuking any change, and he will remain on the ticket as a republican candidate for constable. DR. ALBERT SMITH MAKES CHANGES IN PRACTICE After 17 Years in General Piuctiic, He Will Confine Himself to Stir-gcry and Diseases of Women, Dr. Albert Smith left about a week ago for Rochester, where he id attending tlie worldwide clinics. Dr.

Smith has been engaged In the active practice of medicine and surgery In Parsons during the past 17 years, and gradually his iiiirgiiul practice has so increased that be has at last been compelled 10 (he general practice and confine himself to surgery and the diseases of women. Dr. Smith abandons the general practice whn reluctance, but. be that meet the demands on bis lime, this Is necessary if he would give the attention to his surgical work that bis pa 1 lent demand. No surgeon in the state has more thoroughly equipped himself lor this practice than has Dr.

Smith, and dcrliig the past 17 years he has given 11 pa, of each year to work in the very Dent hospitals in (he country, v.hero associate. 1 with some 01 the most eminent surgeons ho has assisted lit some of tiie most delicate and dililcult operations known to surgery, and It Is through such practice, together whn coutlncul study, that a surgeon can hope to attain success in his profession. Smith has always been reticent regarding his success, and rarely talks of himself or his cases, but the writer knows that few surgeons Ui thi.i part of the state have a larger practice, or one that has been more universally successful, and his cii.K-H come not only from Kansas, but Oklahoma, Missouri, Illinois, ludii.na and other states. and yet few, people In Parsons realize either I Be extent of Dr. Smith's practice In surgery or the success that lias attenileil mm, us well us the many ei 1 flic-11 It cases which be has operated on successfully.

Ills operations have been performed tiulelly during these years, at his private hospital, In the Parsons hospital and Pi the homes of this city. The people of Parsons take pride in the suceeM that has attended Dr. Smith, for grew from boyhood to manhood In Parsons and he has given to his home town the best rtiat Is in him, going away each year as he has now, and returning with nddej skill, experience and study to st, II further equip himself for his prolesslon that of giving relief to the suffering and Injured. In devoting bis entire time to surgery, Dr. Smith will be better able to kIv- to his patients more Ot his time, as a el I as add lo his equipment lor tills special work.

It 1h the specialist today who attains the greatest success, and there Is certainly no i rolesslon that brings so much good lo the world as that of the physlcl.iu and surgeon. The Sim is glad that Dr. Smith has decided to do this, and hopes that he will return to Parsons after attending the Mayo surgical clinics, tlie greatest In the world, better equipped than ever for his life work, and It. Is certain that ho will. The Mayo clinics attract surgeons from all over the country, and there operations an; performed by these cel ebrated surgeons that are the wonder of the world.

It is to these that Dr. Sniii.li his gone, and has gone each year, for many years bringing bad, to Parsons the knowl edge and e'lll learned from these great surgeons. SHOOTS WOMAN AND IIIMsKLF. ICefusul to Weil Him Said lo Have Been the Cause. Brand It.

early break in the line-up of tlie delegates in order to permit the nomination oi a presidential candidate in time to finish the her business of the convention, including the nomination of a candidate lor the vice presidency and 'the adoption ot the platform, before midnight, was hoped for as the fifth day of the Democratic natioual convention opened. The delegates were worn out at 3 o'clock this morning when the adjournment was taken until 1 o'clock this afternoon. Following the all night session, of Thursday night the delegates have led a strenuous life did a crisis on the next two or three ballots was predicted by many, while others held that the deadlock which now seems to have the convention tied up, might hold the convention over another week. A suggestion was made alter the recess last night that the convention take a few more ballots, say hold until featurday night, and then a recess be taken lor two or three weeks, when the, delegates would either return here or go to some other city, pi rhaps Chicago, or Kansas City, where another attempt would be made to nominate a ticket. This plan, however, met with little favor and it was asserted that the convention would be held in continuous sestdon, with occasional recesses until the nominations were made, and It was confidently predicted a nomination would be made before Sunday morning.

Deadlocks of Other Years. Since 186S, when it required twenty-two ballots to select a democratic nominee for president, there has never been a deadlock to e-iual the situation at Baltimore. In 1S9. Bryan, who, previous to the convention, was not regarded as a candidate, received the nomination alter five ballots had been taken. Since then it has lequired only one ballot to name the democratic choice.

Prior to 1868 deadlocks were the rule rather than the exception. As early as 1844, the second democratic convention in history, the delegates failed to agree without a prolonged wrangle, finally naming James K. Polk of Tennessee on the ninth ballot. It required forty-nine ballot to I uing, Bryan said: "The vote ot the New York delegation represented the wishes of man 'hai le.5 F. Murphy.

I shall not be a party to the nomination of any man," declared BryMi, "who Is not free to carry out the anti-Morgan-Ryan- Bnlmont resolution adopted by this convention. declare that Nebrassa is unwilling to accept any man receiving tho support of tho Mur-phys, Morg.iiis and Hyans." Bryan closed his speech with the announcement that he would cast nin vote foi Wilson.

Xew York Goes to Clark.

Baltimore, June 22. Chairman Mack, of tho national committee, before the convention met this afternoon, called the national committee togeth to consult regarding an organized effort to break the deadlock. The leaders of all the presidential candidate camps conferred with the committee, earb hoping to gain an advantage for candidate. It was reported this morning that the New York delegation of 1)0 votes would support Champ Clark for a total of ten ballots. The leaders of the other camps remained firm, hoping that af ter the nineteenth ballot the New York delegates would desert Clark and they hoped to profit by tne break from the Clark camp.

The first break in the New York delegation came last night at 11:18, when on the tenth ballot, SI out of the 90 New York delegates cast their vote for Clark, giving him 33ti votes, the highest yet receive'd by any candidate, but still lacking 17o votes of the nomination, and the friends of Wilson declare that he can never get them. They point out that neliher the total vote of either the Underwood or Harmon forces would he enough to put him over the nomination line for a touchdown. The break of the New York delegation to Clark came after an appeal of liy to the delegation which was disregarded until last night, when it is understood that a concession was made, the delegation promising lj give the their votes for ten ballots. When it aa seen on the second ballot that there was likely to be little chant. in the result a number of Clark managers proceeded to Murphy's scat and begged him to swing the Empire state delegation into line for the speaker.

"If you do, you will blurt a stampede, it wlil be over in a few- hours, aud we can all start lor home," Senator Stone begged. Murphy listened, but made no reply.
