DARING BURGLARS Robbers Loot Dalmon -Hostelry in Daylight and Escape With Guests’ Clothes In a daring daylight hotel burglary yesterday afternoon Henry Dalimon, pro- prietor of the Dalmon hotel, at Fourth and Brannan streets, was shot and bad- Iy wounded by one of two burglars, both of whom escaped. The burglars secured several suits of clothes, the loot of two rooms. Dalmon, while in Lis room on the sec- the top of the main en- trance stairway, heard a man at the let- ter rack near 4:30 o'clock, and believing him.to be a guest went out to meet him. While talking to him Dalmon saw another strange man the office about running down the rear stairway. The hotel man rushed to the window on the Brannan street end of the cor- ridor just in time to see-a-burglar rush- ing out with a bundle of clothes under his arm. He cried “Stop, thief!” The second bharglar gained the en- trance first, and turning fired a shot at the hotel man. The bullet penetrated the left cheek, inflicting a serious flesh wound. The cries af Dalmon attracted several patrolmen after the robbers. .escaped. and the wounded hotel ‘man was re- moved to the cemtral emergency hos- pital. £ The burglar had ransacked two rooms on the third floor of the hotel, while his companion had stood watch. Dalmen describes both men as about 20 years of age, smooth:.shaven apd poorly dressed. Owing to the fact that no other witnesses could be found: the police were unable to secure descrip- tions of any value, and there is little hope of catching the men.

By GEORGE GRISWOLD HILL [Special Dispatch to The Call] ALTIMORE, June 25.—Wiiliam Jennings Bryan will not be the presidential candidate of the democratic party this year. Charles Murphy controls a. ma in the convention. although it is ot of sufficient magnitude to make hi independent of the radical the party. The struggle of the.Champ Clark delegates, who, presumably, acting under orders from the “howa’ dawg hero” divided their votes between Murphy's candidate. Judge Parker, and Colonel Bryan, it is-believed will result in Bryan's throwing lis fluence to Governor Woodrow Wilson. The fight on the temporary cha manghip stood 579, for Parker to 506 for Bryan, 3 for O'Gorman and 17 for'Kern. These seem to be the salient results of today’s session of the democrat qationa] convention Crowd Ignores Parker The convention; which was charac- terized by much disorder, refused to listen to Judge Parker's formal speech chairman, and after the New Yorker had made a wholly inef- fectual attempt to make himself heard, as delegates and visitors moved toward the exits, it was decided to adjourn the conventlon until & p. m., to give the New Yorker another chance. For .a considerable time Bryan has suspected that Champ Clark s not “a genuine progressive, as he expresses 1t, and today's vote convinced himythat the Pancake county statesman is “progressive for revenue only”; that is, revenue in the form of progressive sup- port, There is a genuine impression here tonight that Oscar Underwood is as much out & the running as are Gov- ernor Harmeon, Goyernor Tom Marshall and the vatfious other little ;‘f!vnrlte and that the contest has nar- wing of in- s 4 W E w ILL BUY 1000 Cult Airty Bosten Pacific (00 Westorn m s Life Tnsurance. ~“ gl.fillmil'?lllh ufl Insurance, sen ‘Gorpors i ;"“"m'?(n m‘ tional 118 Wosters Metrogoils National Beak. 20 United Property Debenture Boods. | Advise us of numper of shares and lowest .G Price WE WILL SFELL
