The condition In the New York de'egatlon is still chaotic, but there is, ' a strong indication thnt Governor Sproul ' will come In for n good share of the I vote on Its first breakaway from Nich olas Mdrrny Butler. 1 The cold fact in. that the chances for tlie nomination of tlovevnor Sproul grow increasingly rosy ns the hours go by. It is too early to do any predicting. " Conditions nre in such a state of flux t lint no man in his senses would en deavor to interpret the signs of the moment. Another thing is that the crooked places are being straightened out. AV.

It develops new idio syncrasies every hnlf hour. Mr. Vauclaln. with his retinue of camp followers, is holding forth nt a remote hotel. He Is waiting for the political world to come to him, but the nforesnid world demonstrates a desire to give him the G. B.. which may be In terpreted either ns the "go-by" or ths "grand bounce." The general impression among the Pennsylvaninns is thnt Mr. Vauclaln and 'Jlmni" Dougherty, the ex-prlze-light manager and political mentor of the distinguished Delaware county gen tlciiiun. are uniting to perfect a deal with Governor Sproul's friends. Tte impression is thnt Mr. Vuucluln wishru to trade hi- candidncy for Senator Knox s place two years hence for thi Governor's present chances for the prcs- i ..i.,,,,..

Just before the vote ' hidorsing Sproul at the slat" committee , meeting iu Philadelphia, got up and left the room. He hns declared his Inten tion of absenting himself from the daily meetings of the delegation beginning this morning. This, of course, serves notice that he is going to vote for himself in the convention. Tho whole thing- is assuming a grotesque and bizarre olr ! thut Is almost pathetic.
