VV ruNfo Ltdacr Co. Chicago. June 11. This is the fate ful dv in the Republican National Con -TtntnSn of 1020. and Pennsylvania holds the center of the stngo right down in front of the footlights. Thrrc Pennsylvania names were on tho lips of every delegate and party man lier as the delegates swarmed into tho hall. They were William C. Sproul, Philander C. Knox, and Boles Penrose. Sproul represents tho here nnd now; the visible nnd militant. Knox is the tmbodlment of the possible nnd the In definite, Penrose the nbent but potent ooft tlint from a convalescent's chnlr is reaching across 800 miles of intervening space to control forces nnd direct men. This much I know, that orders have been given to eliminate General Wofl in favor of a Pcnnsylvnnian. Can tho orders be executed? For the first time the Pennsylvania delegation gnthered in their places to dav without Governor Sproul In his feat. He will not uppenr with the dele nation today. His proxy is held by William T.

There was a remarkable demonstration on the convention floor lato -yesterday after noon. The Governor was its center and object. During tho weary wait for tho committee on resolutions he held n reg ular levee in his plnce nt the head of his delegation. At least 200 dclfl gates from other stntcs gathered around to meet him nnd tnkc note of the man ner of man that he is. It was not nnlr unusual, it was uninue. And he made a fine impression. His affability and bis democratic manner left its im press upon those who met him. Later in the afternoon another trib k ute was paid to nnother Pcnnsylvn nian. Thus far this has been an un demonstrative convention. Even the etrahjs of "Dixie," which usunlly raise a stries of cheers and yells, have re ceived but n fragment of npplnusc.

DELEGATION LFIGHTWOO TO BITTER Vote May Go to Lowden if Gen eral Looks Liko Winner HARDING'S CHANCES APPEAR BRIGHTER Ohio Senator Called Good Or ganization Man of McKin ley Type By CLINTON W. GILBERT Copyright, lOtfl. bv Publio Lcdaer Co. Coliseum, Chicago, Juno .11. The New York state leaders, at a conference. this morning, decided to throw the influ cure of the delegation against the com hinntion of Wood If nt nny timo he comes within whnt seems like striking distance of nomination. Both Senators Wndsworth and Colder participated in tho conference and agreed to the plan. They agreed to stop Wood by throwing New York's strength to Lowden, even If thntMictlon leads to the nomination of tho Illinois governor, which they do not want, but' which they regard as tho lesbcr of two evils. They believe they can deliver fifty votes to Lowden in such n movement. They hopo to avoid the nomination of Lowden. They want a dark horse, and f"r this reason they will not act in Lowden s behnlf unless n movement which promises tho success of Wood gets started. Such nu nction by New York is likely to be decisive ns against Wood Governor Allen's nomination speech for Wood fell rather flat. It will not mnke Allen the Garfield of this conven tlou. Harding's Chances Brighter When the convention assembled this morning to listen to the nominating speeches it seemed fo be tho consensus of opinion nmong the delegates that Sonator Harding's chances wero much brighter. "Senator Poindextcr, for whom tho WnfJilngton delegation Is instructed, went to his delegation yesterday nnd asked them on nn early ballot to sup port a Harding-Johnson ticket. It Is not known whether this program has Senator Johnson's approval or not. hut Johnson and Poindextcr nre close friends. The Wood movement of the last few days has apparently failed as the Lowden movement of a few days be fore also failed to draw sufficient sup port. There is still n chance in the accidents nnd sudden emotions of bal loting that Wood will bo nomiuntcd, but tho chance seems slight. The turn to Harding which became perceptible yesterday is n natural de elopment. Tho convention wants some other candidate than the three lenders. And the delegates arc eagerly desirous of naming nn organization man nnd having nn organization President. The organization hero is sick. It wants to get well. Above all things tho dele gates wish to get back to party govern ment. They nro afraid for the party in the present state of disunion and lack of leadership. This was apparent in the convention whenever n refer ence to party government wns eagerly npplauded. Mr. Harding stands, In the minds of the delegates, nioro than any other candidate for party government. Acceptable to Johnson He l. moreover, personally popular. He was tho first choice of such leaders as the organization head. And now thnt all the work of the primaries and all the pre-conventiou discussion hns failed to evolve a candidate of a special strength with the people, the delegates appear to he turning to Harding as perhaps not the ideal candidate, but as good n candi date as is likely to be found. Harding is supposed to bo ncceptnblo to Johnson. In the primaries they worked together in considerable harmony. The organi zation group which has gathered about Lowden regards Hurtling with n good deal of favor. He is their kind of man. If the first break comes from Lowden it is more likely to go to Harding than to any other possibility. If Wood's forces should go to pieces first the issue is not so clear. The relations between the Wood campaign and the Harding campaign hne been for from friendly. But the Wood delegates, like all tho other delegates, are first of all organini tion men desirous to get hack totho old style organization typo of President. The original Idea cxnrcssed months ago in Urn cry "Let ns hava uMcICinley tjpe of President" btlll dominates the consciousness of the party. Tho party is wcury to death from running nfter the strange gods of tho big men sought. It wants tho rest, repose, hrcurity thut Contlnurd on 1'ub t'uurlrrn.
