| EFFORTS T0 END| DEADLOCK FAIL (Continued from First Page) The aix from Delaware said they realised they were free to ehoose hav. | ing been released, but that their in dividual preference was with Sauls. bury, Read MeAdoo's Proposals Then as part of the same report the | clerk read MeAdoo's letter and eouns | terproposal, which included the abh. ation of the two.thirds rule and the unit rule, progressive slimination of the lew candidate on succeeding pallots, and the right of delegates re- maining to cast the votes of those | whe have gone home, | MeAdoo's letter as read was the same previously published except | that it contained the phrase, “any plan for breaking this deadloek whieh does not accomplish the purpose will disappoeint the expectations of the convention,” The MeAdoo proposal was rejected the report said, although seme of the rep ntatives of the 15 expressed willingnees to assent to some features | of it, | At the conclusion of the reading, Gavin MeNab, of California, asked to know ahout previous rulings of the ehair regarding the unit rule, A dele. 1] from Texas wanted to knop 1f “it was true that Mr. Houston had released his delegates. Then Bruce XKremer of Montana, a McAdoo man, ‘moved the suspension of the rules so both sets of proposals could ha referred to the rules com- mittes for report, Newton D, Baker and William Jennings Bryan hoth claimed recognition of the chair, Eenator Walsh ordered Kremer's mo- | tion read again for the clear informa- tion of the delegates, Then the chair recognized Mr, Baker. Mr, Baker developed that a report of the Miles committee favoring a change in the rules could he adopted by a majority of the convention in- stead of a two-thirds majority, Chairman Walsh agreed that that | was correct, * On an aye and no vote, the Fotion to suspend the rules and refer the proposals to the rules committee, The nees had it without a roll call, With that the convention went hack to callln’ the roll of states for bal- loting. = | McAdoo Gains Here The breaks in the Virginia and | West Virginia delegations on the 7sth ballot whersa McAdoo got some votes for the first tima gave the McAdoo | péople on the floor a chance for some cheering. In North Carolina McAdoo lost a two and a half; Underwood gained it.| John W. Davis gained one also. A resolution was offered by former Governor Gllchrist of Florida. It pro- | posed that the rules ha suspended for the adoption of a resolution which in turn would adopt the proposals em- bodied in the report of the conferees | on the over Sunday negotiations, The procéedings were held up for a moment while: McAdoo leaders con- ferred on the platform. A dclegate wanted the resolution read again but it developed the official stenographer had disappeared with it. The read- ing was postponed until the end of the next ballot, The call of the roll then went on for the seventy-ninth time, The roll call developed little but a challénge of* thevote of tha Canal Zone which had been voting for Mc- Adoo under a unit rule, On the poll three of the Panama Canal delegates cast their- votes for McAdoo and three for Smith, The challenge contended that there was no unit rule imposed by the home con- vention and that the delegates should be permitted to vote their convictions. The chair had ruled that week that the delegation was voting as a unit. E. M. Robinson of Ancon was given pérmission to address the convention. Robinson argued that the delegates were bound to vote for McAdoo. Chairman Walsh reversed his previous ruling and ordered the Canal Zone vote record three for McAdoo and three for Smith. Leaders at 79th McAdoo 507.5; Smith 366.5; Davis 71 This was a loss of three and a half for McAdoo, a gain of three for Smith and a loss of two and a half for Pavis. Then between ballots the conven- tion heard an announcement that former Governor Campbell of Ohio, was celebrating his 81st birthday, To this place in the Ohio delegation the Texas standard was carried with a bouquet attached to it. Vote To Continue Struggle Ed. M. Seamens of Oklahoma, City, then offered a resolution proposing fhat it be expressed as the seénse of the convention that the delegates vote on the next ballot only for the two leading candidates. John J. Fitzger- ald of Brooklyn objected and on a viva voce vote the noes had it over- whelmingly. ' Once more the majority of the con- vention expressed itself in favor of a | prolonged fight, In the Massachusetts delegation on the 80th ballot the result was an- nounced by Gov. Smith's son, Alfred E. 8mith, Jr. He got a round of ap- plause. Glass Near Third Wyoming followed the lead of Mis- souri and Virginia and gave three of her votes to Glass. The ballot had reised Glass to where he was pressing for third place. The 80th ballot left the leaders in this ' position: McAdoo 4 , Smith 367.5, Glass €8, Davis 78.5. This ballot carried MeAdoo below thé five hundred mark again. This was a loss of 53 for McAdoo, A gain of one for Smith and it brought Glass close to Davis for third place. Franklin D. Roosevelt said today that after the New York delegation had been informed of the proceedings of thé conference héld hy representa- | tives of the many candidates, the con- census of opinion was that Governor Smith had attained the most formid- | able position of the many contenders. “The convention has reached a point where factional differences must be lald aside and all join forces for | the good of the party,” he said. “That can only be attained by nom- inating the man who can win. Many delegates voting for McAdoo realize his weakness. The best solution,is to months age. Between the 80th and 818t ballots o motion to adjourn uatili 7:30 p, m. was voled down and the clerk went on with the next call The state of mind and the state of near exhaustion which affects almost | everybody in the convention was il- lustrated during the S1st ballot when the announcei in the Michigan dele gation announced 32 voles—iwo more n the Ale has “You have past sald the clerk “Then take two away from Senator Fervis," replled the delegate, "I'm so groggy 1 ean't count ‘em." 1o many votes ACTRESS MURDERED, FRIEND 1§ ACCUSED Police Claim New Yorker I Badly Tnvolved New York, July T.==The mysterious death of Ruth Holllster, a young ac- tress who had appeared in a minor rols of “Kiki", and whose body was found on Raturday night in her apart. ment at & East Thirtieth street, was followed yesterday by the arrest of ene of her men friends who was charged with murder, The prisoner is Jacoh Peisner, 35 years old, of 154 West Seventy-seventh street. He was held without ball by Magistrate Thomas I, McAndrews in the Yorkville court for examination on Wednesduy in the homicide court, The polica sald that Peisner's alibl had been broken down. He said that he had been in Newark all week, but the police sald they had found that this was not so, Miss Holiiser's death was attribut- ed at first to alcoholism, but the po- lica said that they suspected poison. There were no marks on her hody, but her flesh was discolored from the shoulders up to the scalp, in a pecti- llar way that detectives said might have been caused by poison. An autopsy will he held today. Story Told by Peisner The body was discoverad by Peis- ner about 6 o'clock Saturday evening. This is the story ha told the police: ' “I have known Ruth for about two years, Her real name was FEstella Flynn and her mother lives in Green- land, Mass, 8he was 26 years old and had been in seve A‘Tahnws, 1 picked her up one day at a movie, We lived together for a time, but she had other friends, and lately we had been living apart. 1 always used to call her up before going to see her, to see if I could come up, “Until Saturday I had been living at 18 Linden street, Newark. I had not been in New York all week. RBut I moved over to Seventy-seventh street Saturday, and decided to BO down to see Ruth in the evening . I did not telephone, as I usually did. “I let myself in the door of her apartment with my key and called her name, She did not answer. Then T went in the bedroom, She was lying partly on the hed and part- Iy off,with her head resting on a pillow on the floor, I touched her and she did not move, but T did not know whether she was dead or not, “THen T went out to look for a doc- tor and found one over on Madison avenue. He came over and said she was dead and called the police, That's all I know.” Gave Her $1,300 in Gifts The police said, however, that Peis- ner before going for a doctor had packed a bag containing his personal belongings that were in the apart- ment and had taken it to the home of a Miss Clark, a friend of Miss Hol- Hister, at 456 Fourth avenue. Under questioning by the police, Pelsner sald that he was deeply in love with the girl and that he had given her $1,500 worth of presents in the last four months. He said that he was an upholsterer and that his brother was in business for himself. When Detectives S8heedy and Smith of the East Thirty-fifth Street sta- tion were called to the apartment Saturday night they feund it reek- ing with the evidences of a long drinking party. Strewn about hoth rooms of the two-room-and-bath apartment on the third floor, for which Miss Hollister paid $75 a month, were glasses containing the dregs of whisky and wine, A num- ber of empty bhottles and innumer- able cigarette stubs were on the floor, on the bed and all about the rooms. Mazie Mason, who oceupies the apartment below Miss Hollister's, told the police that Miss Hollister had staged a party, which began on Fry- day afternoon and lasted all night, Turing the afternooy and evening many strangers visited the Hollister apartment, according to Miss Mason. She and other tenants of the house Aaid that several men knocked on different. doors that night, asking for “Ruth.” irl's Body Unclaimed. Detactives could find no one in the house who could recall having seen Peisner there the night of the party. | Neither were they able to get any in-| formation about the time when thoee who attended Miss Hollister's party left the house, At first Miss Hilllster's death was believed 40 have heen caused by alco- holism, and Peisner was held at the Tiast Thirty-fifth strest station merely as a witness. He was questioned all | | saturday night, however, and, accord- | °Ur beloved hushand and f: ing to the police, discrepancies began to apepar in his story.
