CONVENTION National Committee Asks Re-nom- ination and Re-election of Wilson ‘Washington, Dec. 8.—The Demo- cratic national convention of 1916 will be held at St. Louis, beginning ‘Wednesday, June 14, at noon. The democratic national committee last night named the convention city and adopted resolutions calling for the re- nomination and re-election of Wood- row Wilson as ‘“‘the trusted leader of national democracy.’ Chicago and Dallas contested with St. Louis for the honor of the con- vention, but St. Louis easily lead from the start, and won on the second bal- lot. When the trend of the voting was seen, it was moved that the choice of St. Louis be made unani- mous. Dallas held second place on the first ballot but was displaced by Chicago on the second roll call. Choice Made Unanimous. The result of the first ballot was: St. Louis, '26; Dallas, 14; Chicago, 13. On the second ballot the vote was: St. Louis, 28; Chicago, 15; Dallas, 9. The majority for St. Louis was gained on this ballot, when John T. McGraw arose near the end of the call and changed West Virginia’s vote from Chicago to the Missouri city. Then the choice was made unanimous. It has been customary for national conventions to begin work on Tues- day. The fact that Tuesday fell on the 13th next year, may or may not have had something to do with the determination of the democratic com- mittee to begin the proceedings a day | later. The official explanations, how- ! ever, was to the effect that the con- vention would not require more than three or four days to complete its work, and it would not be too late in the week to start on Wednesday. G. O. P. In Charge. Political leaders in Washington last night regarded it as pracitcally cer- tain that Chicago will be selected for the republican convention, when the national committee of that party meets here next Tuesday. The date for this convention probably will be late in June. Each of the three cities contesting for the democratic convention put in | a bid of $100.000. St. Louis placed in the hands of the chairman New York drafts for that amount. Dallas of- fered a certified check. while Chicago presented a pledge from the associa- commerce to contribute $100,000 on call of the treasurer of the democratic committee. ‘Warn Committee. The advocates of St. Louis supple- mented their financial inducements by a warning to the committee that the convention was needed in Missouri to keep the eighteen electoral votes of the state in the democratic column. | The delegation from Dallas pleaded with the committee to reward the loyal democracy of the south by send- HOLY SEE HARD HIT BY EUROPEAN WAR Pope Deprived of Liberty Needed to Govern Church Rome, Dec. 8.—Pope Benedict in his allocution delivered on the misfortunes which the war has brought upon the Holy See and refer- ried to his previous complaint that the erty necessary for the government of the church. He said that some of the ambassadors and ministers by reason of such a state of events had left the Vatican “in order to protect their personal dignity and the pre- rogatives of their office.” “Certainly those who govern Italy eliminate tho inconveniences,” said the pontiff, “'but this of itself clearly demonstrates that the position of the pontiff is dependant upon the ecivil authoritices and that with a change of men and circumstances the position itself might change for the worse. “No reasonable man can that a position so assert others can be that which property be- comes the Apostolic See, Inherent Rights Curtailed, “Moreover, it was impossible to avoid on account of the force of cir- cumstances a number of inconven- iences of a serious nature not to speak of others we shall limit our- selves to observe that some of the ambassadors and ministers accredited to us by their sovereigns were con- strained to depart in order to protect their personal dignity and the pre- rogatives. of their office: This means the curtailing of the inherent rights of the Holy See and a weakening of the ne ary guarantees which she needs in her dealings with foreign governments.” The pope protested against what he termed the suspicion that had arisen, that by the very force of circum- stances the Holy See had been regu- lated and guided in its treatment of the affairs of the contending nations by suggestions of those who had ac- cess to the Vatican. Sorrow Increases. “The increased difficulty of commu- nication between ourselves and the Catholic world,” said the pontiff, “‘ren- dered it very difficult to form a com- plete and exact judgement of events. It seems to us that what we have thus far said is sufficient to show that our sorrow increases day by day, whether on account of the frightful increase of this slaughter, which is scarcely worthy of centuries of bap barism. or hecause the position of the Holy See becomes worse.” Pope Benedict concluded by saying that he knew that his sorrow was shared by his sacred college and the whole of the Christian pecople. He added that the people must not he dismayed, as Christ has promised that His assistance would never be lacking to the church. Fle urged the people (o pray with confidence and to accom- pany their prayers with deeds of charity and penance. ing the convention next year to a southern state. The Texas speakers were greeted with enthusiastic cheers by the members of their delegation, and the “rebel vell” several times in- terrupted the proceedings. Chicago based its appeal largely on its climate and known ability to take care of convention crowds. The national committee was in ses- sion almost continuously from 11: a. m. until late last night completing the details of convention arrange- ments, discussing financial ways and means for the coming campaign and debating various subjects of party in- terest. The opening of the session was given the atmosphere of a love feast, when Thomas J. Pence of North Carolina, a protege of Secre- tary of the Navy Daniels, was elected secretary, and in a speech of accept- ance declared reports of differences between himself and National Chair- man W. F. McCoombs were entirely without foundation. ! C. H. KING GIVEN SIX YEARS IN PRISON Fairfield Lawyer Pleads Guilty to Forgery in Superior Court and Is Sentenced by Judge Willlams, Bridgeport, Dec. 8.—Clitus H. | King of Fairfield, a prominent lawyer and former member of the General Assembly of Connecticut, pleaded | auilty to forgery in the superior court | vesterday and Judge W. H. Williams | sentenced him to six years in the | state prison. It was alleged that he 1ranipulated mortgages. King, who was a member of the | General Assembly of 1913 and again in the present year when he was a member of the judiciary committee, attended the legislative reunion held | at the Momouguin on September 1 of i this year and disappeared that night or the next morning when the fact of his crime became known. | 1t appeared, later, that he went | West and, although a warrant for his st was issued, and placards giv- | ng his picture were sent broadcast over the country he was not appre- hended until he came back to Bridge- port some six weeks later and gave himself up. He said at the time that he should plead guilty and was enxious to appear in court as soon as possible in order that he might serve his time. He said that, as soon as his sentence expired he hoped to begin iife anew and to make good any losses which he might have occasioned to ' those with whom he hag had dealings.
