Auditorium, San Franciseo, July 5.—An eleventh hour release of Attorney General Palmér's delegates left the democratic national convertion late tonight with a fight between McAdoo and Cox on its hands and both of them claiming the other could not possthly get enough out of the Palmer wreck to attain a nomina- tiom. Cex's vofe of 468 1-2 was exactly his| prewious high water mark as it appeared on/the fifteenth ballot. Attention of Sen- ater Harrison of the Cox forces was call 24 to that fact by National Committee- man Guffey of Pennsylvania, who asked what the Cox forces were going to do ebout it. Harrison said they were going out for more. The convention went into the fortieth ballot with Cox the leader over McAdoo once more and with big changes in sight for the cailing of the roil On the preceding ballot the Palmer votes from every state in the union ex- cept Pennsylvania and Louisiana had Jumped into the other camps. One lone vote in Louisiana was all that remained | outside of his home votes, which had stayed with him for one more ballot, then to_split up in various ways At the end of the second ballot after the recess when the Paimer vote had touched twe hundred and eleven and it wes apparent that it could be driven no nigher, Former Representative C. C. Car- jin of Virginia Mr. Palmer's manager, took the platform and announced the withdrawal of the attorney general from the race. Chairman Robinson, in presenting him, 10} the convention significantly that he was presenting a man who an an- nouncement 10 make which he was confi- dent the convention wouid want to hear Expectation was in the air and the eonveation, which ol a moment before BA@ been in the height of disorder in a Fackety demonsiration, quieted down like magic, until & pin might almost have béen heard to drop in the great anditor- jum as Carlin took the speaker's place and waid n substance L.“1 am about 10 make an announce- t of_greaiest importance to this con- Teation At the conciusion of which 1 shall move a recess for twenty minutes to Eive the comvention opportunity to decide what course it shall take. “A Mitchell Palmer asks me to ex- prees his sincare thanks and appreciation 1o every delegate who had voted for his Romination but he is unwilling to delay ihe proceedings further and authorized me to finally, positively, and absoluteiy. reiease every delegate pledged to him that the convention may proceed to nom- the next president of the United o There was a roar of “Hurrah for Pal- mer” as the lines broke and the conven- tion went into a recess. The denoue- ment, coming at the end of thirty-e hard-fought and fruitiess ballots, gave the mame effect as does an over-inflated automobie when it bursts with a mg and then sizzles down. The entire Palmer vote added to Mc- Adoo’s total on the thirty-eighth baliot would give him six hundred and sixieen and a half. The Paimer votes added to the Cox total on the same baliot would give the Ohio governor five hundred and ninety-four and a halt. Both leading candidates would fall short of the two thirds which is seven hundred and twen- ry-nine The be that concensus of opinion seemed to Cox wonid gain in Massachu- setts. Michigan and Maine, while McAdoo | i gain neavily in Georgia and that Teansyivania would splt between Davi McAdoo and Cox. There was tion as to how long Davis votes wou hoid. Delegations voting soli under t rule but at beart divided between McAdoo and other candidates: have de- veloped ill feeling. of which the caucuses which took place on the fioor during the recess gave evidences. There was shout- img. waving of arms and some shaking { sevrrying of fims and a grea: deal about. Piatform and convention hal fiocor were jammed with an arguing, gesticulating mass { men and Women— mostly men—but the argument was not Zreater in volume with them despite theiF Ppreponderance jn_number. During the recess thers was circulat- ed_about the floor copies of a telegram trom Judge Moore. Cox's manager, to Daniel, C. Roper, of New York, accredit- ~d wih being ome of the McAdoo man- agers, charging that “a crowd of gov- erpment empioves and treasury officials are for their own personal ends and in McAdoo's expressed using his name to Charging that several delegations were packed with government employes, hold- ing out for the nomination of Mr. Me- Adoco, More's telegram charged that “the action of the payroll brigade is cre- ating a national scandal to the ruin of the democratic party.” “They know there is no chance fo nominate him,” the telegram continued “but hove to bring about a_situatel where they can deal off the delegates to | some candidate Where their jobs will be protected.” Judge Mooore expressed the opinion that Mr. McAdoo would not be a party to such a deal and urged that in his own |and his party's interest he wire to the {conventin forbidding the use of his name. On the thirty-seventh ballot, the first of the night session, Arizona nominaied a full ticket. The stat chairman, an- nouncing that “Arizona Delieves the ticket should be McAdoo and Cox.” cast four for McAdoo and two for the Ohio governor. Annette Adams. of California, recently appointed an' assistant attorney | general of the United States, got one vote from California. On the first seven states called McAdoo gained one for each in Alabama and Arizona and had lost one each of California and Delaware. Cox lost one from Arkansas and gained one from California. while Palmer gained threa from Alabama and one from Ar- | kansas. losing ome in Californ | Cox gained two in Massachuscits, with- out disturbing McAdoo or Palmer. |*"in" Montana and New Hampshire MeAdoo took one each from Palmer. New York Sticks Wity Cox. New York stuck with Cox as Indi- ana had stuck with McAdoo. The re- | port that Indiana proposed fo switch hack o Cox if MeAdoo failed to show a start persisted. Palmer took one from McAdoo n North Dakota and then the familiar 'Cox, forty-eight” which had burst out from the Ohio space 3 timées befors {roared for the 37tH time while the con- vention let out a storm of applause. In Pennsylvania Palmer took one of | McAdoo’s only two and made his string seventy-four in his native atate. Tennessee's 24 jumped out of the Pal- mer column and hack to John W. Da- Ivis of Weat Virginia. It wgs a jar to | raising Paimer 'vote. in Cox and two lo McAdoo. Alaska's six were cast for James Hamilton Lewis of illinois, after heing divided for many bal- Iots between McAdoo and Palmer, and Cox. €. C. Carlin of Virginia, one of the Palmer managers, took the platform and announced that Attormey General Palmer had authorized him to release his dele. #Zates. Carlin moved a recess of twenty minutes 8o the convention could decide what course to take. Carlin told the convention the attorney general was disinclined to delay the pro- jceedings of the convention longer and was authorized by him “to uncondition- {ally and finally release his delegates _Shouts of “Hurrah for Palmer” rent the hall. At the close of the thirty-eighth Chair- man Robinson seemed to have hit on an impartial manner of parcelling out the music. He allowed the McAdoo boom- ers Palmer people and the Cox shouters one yerse each of their favorite air. Chairman Robinson called ~ Senator Phelan, "a great California democrat,” to the platform to announce the results of the thirty-eighth ballot. The Ballots. .

The Aftermoon Session. ‘When the afternoon balloting was m the closing stage the Palmer boom was taking an upward excursion—in fact, the first it has enjoyed since it took the slip in the twelfth ballot last week. The Mec- Adoo votes had taken the leading place from the Cox votes and the Cox column had finally regained some of its strength. When the session ended three principal contenders were probably closer together than they had been for a long time and if it meant anything it meant that the deadlock was a little tighter. The McAdoo people tried to explain the Palmer rise by saying it was really an excursion to carry the attorney general as far as he could go. They declared the Cox people had done the same thing and | failed to put their man over. When the Palmer and Cox booms had both been given a “jov ride” to use the language of the McAdoo managers. it was the plan of the McAdoo peopie to begin a new drive for the president’s son-in-law. Cox was at_his lowest with 134 in the first ballot. His high water mark was 468 in the nineteenth. By the thirty- sixth he had sagged down to 377. McAdoo, starting out with a lead. was 266 in the first ballot. Cox moon took the first place, however, but by the thirty- second ballot McAdoo was not only back in first place buf had struck a high water mark for him at 421 1-2. In the thirty- sixth he was at 398, During the recess the Cox people wert into a conference. There was a proposal in the air to see’if the New York dele-. gation could not be swung to the Paimer column. The forces went ints session this morn- ing with predictions on every hand that nominee would soon’ be found. ' Large bets were laid that the convention would nominate Within an hour and a half. But such poor progress was made that a vote was forced om.proposals to suspénd the rules and drop oft the low. man-on each succeeding baliot until a nomination was ‘made.
