Sir Bryan's principal fight was to of naged for an affirmative dry which he already had i rafted bat declined to submit to the -nb-committee. A leasne plank omitting any pledge to ratify the reatv was to be the vehicle of senator Walsh's fight, and a recognition o' the Irish repnbllo was, to be asked itr li Mr Cockran. That the subcommittee would some sort of a positive declara- ion for the treaty's ratification was foregone conclusion. What might i'f done about Ireland was a more I'rfficult question to answer but one "jggfstlon was that a plank might recommended declaring that the ir i problem should be brought before the bar of the league of nations.

Secretary Colby, who is the administration floor leader In the convention and who, like senator Glass, nlked platform Issues with president ilson before leaving Washington, was said to have prepared the language of the plank originally put before the subcommittee as an adxnin-stration totseitton. the suggestion of former gov-crno MeCerklt. of West Virginia, members of the full committee were nvited to file platform suggestions with the subcommittee. There was e-ho in today's meeting, however, n' ine objections made by senator Walsh to the subcommittee's plan of eotng ahead without consulting at length with the other committee members.

It provided for ratification without Impairing reservations," but added thatdlffer-eaces of opinion on that subject should be "so promised that the treaty may be ratified without unnecessary delay." In handling the prohibition Question, administration leaders were reported to be maneuvering to brine before the convention a plan which could be championed as an "administration measure." To this end, it was planned to Include a clause endorsing president Wilson's veto of the Volstead act. If this could be accomplished.

It was believed the administration strength on the floor would be more than sufficient to poab it through. That a floor fight on prohibition could be avoided was believed by administration leaders, as well as predicted by the drys. to be impossible. On a straight wet or dry vote. It was generally conceded that the majority of the delegates would vote dry, but the tiroDosed "silently moist" Dlanlc backed with a declaration upholding president Wilson, is believed to have better than a gooa cnance.

He has appealed to other friends to intercede with ur. janKins and persuade him not to make any nominating speech, and the chances are that this second appeal will prevail and the name of Mr McAdoo will, after all, not be placed In nomination. Of course, anybody can be voted for whether or not his name Is formally presented.

May Re a Good Stroke. Consider the wisdom of the move to keep Dr. Jenkins from making the nominating speech. There are those who have insisted that it affords a special opportunity for oratorical salesmanship, that the points in Mc-Adoo's record ought to be recalled to the minds of the delegates, and that It was the splendid marshaling of facts and arguments by Gov. Willys in his nominating speech which had so much to do with the final selection of senator Harding at Chicago.

But. on the other hand. Mr. McAdoo Is in an entirely different position. He has Insisted that he Boesnt want the nomination and has telegraphed his friends here to desist tn their activity for him.

Some delegates have taken all this with a grain of salt, for they have noticed a persistence of campaigning for McAdoo. But, the only formal thing which is done for candidates in the convention itself Is the nominating and seconding speech. To nerratt the same to be done with out protest is to consent to being made a canaiaate. Mr. McAdoo made his Drotest to Dr.

Jenkins, but without changing the laters determination. Nevertheless, on account of the close friendship between the Kansas City editor and McAdoo, it has been asserted here that the former secretary of the treasury could nersnade Jenkins if he really tried. So, McAdoo is trying, and he has sent so many appeals to xnenas nera that unquestionably bis wish will be compiled with. Hoorer! Sad Experience. Another thing, suppose McAdoo doesn't win the nomination here.

Some of his friends believe that It his name is presented formally, along with other candidates, he will never be able to erase the Impression that he sought the nomination. Mr. Hoover's sad experience, after he had insisted that he was not a candidate. is being mentioned as a case In point. But back of it ail is tne xeeung tnat if this convention wants McAdoo, it knows where he stands, and it knows that he would accept If drafted.

He said in a telegram after the Georgia primaries that no true Democrat could refuse the presidential nomination If tendered to him. The sting of the sonlnlaw argument is still felt. One of the local newspapers greets the delegates daily with headlines about the rise and fall of the boom for the "crown prince." Some of the other newspapers Insist that the president is trying to get tne nomination tor mcaooo. xr. Wilton Is literally keeping his hands off.

but, as has been demonstrated i again and again in the sessions held I thus far, this is a Wilson convention tne delegates are or ana supporters of the Wilson policies. They are for Palmer and McAdoo because each is a Wilson man. If it were not for Palmer's rec- ord ajralnst labor, he would win the nomination. -Similarly, because Medoos record In faTor of labor, he holds a commanding position here. JUm Affirmative strength 1 not menaureable.

The else of the veto block of Totes, aid to be at least one-third. Is also matter of conjecture. But Ic4doo's chances had receded slightly when word came that he had again upset the plans of Ma friends and asked them net (o plaee his name. It Is this constant refusal to take the crown which seems to add fascination to the McAdoo movement. The ansear to derive stimu lus from the anwiHingness of McAdoo to lift a finger to advance Bis own political intent.

Urge Cummlngs's Nomination. When the convention adjourned Tuesday and the delegates got back to their hotels they found handbills reading as "How about Homer Cnmmlngs for president of the United States? "His keynote speech has already won for him the presidency throughout the land. Today he personifies Uie victory of Democracy at the polls give him the game as well as the name. Put aside petty prejudice and consider In terms of party success and yon will see that Homer Cummlngs's words will ring around the world, the truly great utterances of the truly great leader of the 13r Democracy. A great moment has produced a great man.

America needs Homer Cnmmlngs for president." The posters were signed by "San Francisco Civilian Democrats," but the Connecticut delegation, which has endorsed Cummlngs for president, probably had something to do with It. The delegates were talking more about Cummings than any other dark horse, though vice-president Marshall and Champ Clark are mentioned by the anti-administration forces and some of the conservative elements in tho party who are restive under Wilson leaaersnip. xnis situation may well arise when Talmer and McAdoo and Cox may be unable to get two-thirds. The consideration of dark horses would bring the Palmer and McAdoo men close together to nominate a Wilson man. That would make Cummlngs logical.

His chances are much better than those of Will Hays at Chicago when the dark horse talk began, but the prospects of nominating a dark horse are still nebu lous. Murphy's Power Lessened. The McAdoo supporters feel highly encouraged by the breaking of the unit rale In New Tork state. George Lunn and assistant secretary of the navy Franklin Roosevelt lougnt sneeessfal battle in the rules com mlttee and now it Is possible for New York's 0 votes to split. Charlie Murphy's power is diminished.

He will try to hold his delegation together for governor Al Smith on the theory that a deadlock may yield the nomination to the New Tork governor. He will hold that over the heads of recalcitrant delegates, but the number which probably will go to. McAdoo In that New Tork delegation Is about Jl. There are also Cox and Palmer votes In New York state. Murphy may be able to keep SS votes for Al Smith Indefinitely, but once released from that pledge there is no telling to which candidate New York will ultimately throw Its strength.
