GILBERT Corvrtoht, 1010, lv PutiUo Ledacr Co, San Francisco, Juno 30. An early ballot will probably tell whether Mr. McAdoo can bo nomlnnted or not. Mr. McAdoo's supporters claim a majorjty of tho convention for their candidate on tho third ballot nnd the two-thirds majority ncccsary to rlomlnnto soon nftcr that. If they don't get tho ma jority on nn early bnllot tho conven tion will probably bo deadlocked. Today appears to bo the critical day with tho McAdoo candidacy. Either tho delegations will make up their minds to ignore the crown prince Issue today or they will begin to consider it so seriously that McAdoo's prospects will wane. Various forces of tho convention want n deadlock. Tho Palmer men want n deadlock and count upon Bryan to help them. Bryan wants a deadlock, though It is not clear that he has nny can didate in the event of one. Tho stnto bosses seek a deadlock, though they are watching each other for fear some of them will gain the advantage over the other by being tho first to go over to McAdoo. '' atch MurphyLlke Hawk ' For the purpose of keeping Boss Taggart, of Indiana, and the Illinois group of leaders anxious the McAdoo people keep putting out the suggestion that Boss Murphy, of New York, is flirting with McAdoo. All his fellow bosses watch Murphy like a hawk. They want to beat him to it if there is to be any drift to McAdoo. If McAdoo is not nominated it will be because ho beat himself by his own hesitation nnd by tho attention he has called to the crown prince issue through his own shilly-6hallying, Neither the state bosses nor Mr. Bryan lmo any one to beat him with. They show no capacity to get together. Tbey have no real program except to seek n dead lock and leave what happens nftcr that on the knees of the gods. Meanwhile they watch each other keenly for fear of a rush to the bandwagon in' which they may bo left behind. Burleson's Position It is a queer bandwagon, the Mc Adoo bandwagon. Postmaster General Burleson 13 on the front seal of it and everybody clso would like to throw him out of it. Tho bad taste of a Wilson cabinet member in sitting conspicu ously in a bandwagon in which rides tho "disinherited son-in-law" ! Burle son is crabbing the game, everybody complains, while- Burleson's friends say: "Burleson is in an awkward po sition. Ho was the original McAdoo man. Yet Wilson has made it almost Impossible to norainato McAdoo." Mr. Burleson is very damaging to tho McAdoo propaganda, which is that the Whlto Houso family Is an estranged famiiy, Mr. Burleson, of AVilsou's of- ..... ,(, In.lcfa tlciai family, insists on being openly for the son-in-law for whom tho latch -string docs not hnng out. It la all -very "' .,, ....... disconcerting. Mr. Burleson is tho I most unwelcome man in San Francisco, lie is as popular with Jouctt Shouse j and Arthur Mullen as is a nullifying reservation nt the White House. Mr. McAdoo may wiu lu spite of Mr. Burleson's bad judgment in crossing from one side to tho other of tho es tranged home. Ho may win by de fault. He is in tho leud iu spite of the reaction which has set In against his candidacy, for tho reaction ogaiust tho McAdoo candidacy did set in today. To mtet it tho McAdoo promoters are making their greatest efforts. A big dmc has been begun. Organizers nre circulating, especially women organizers who participated in tho Liberty Loan campaigns. The McAdoo movement hero Is remarkablo for tho activity of tho women iu it, led by Mrs. Funk. Two-thirds Not in Sight The McAdoo leaders woke up yes tcrdny to tho realization that tho two thirds vote necessary to nominate their candidate wna not in sight. Moreover, ou the front page of ono of tho San Francisco newspapers was displayed a gicat hcare headline ubout the crown prince. The prcconvention stampedo had stopped. 1 ho utterly spontaneous movement to McAdoo was not going to be enough to nominate him. Tho forces of tho opposition were consolidating their lines, and, moreover, tho ono great weakness of Mr. 'McAdoo, his relationship to the President, was be. Continued on Tar ventcen.

Cummings were placed In nomination for the presidency during the first hour of the Democratic Na tional Convention's session today. Cheers greeted the mention of their names. There was another last-mlnutc change in the plans of the McAdoo forces which finally precluded the presentation of his name. There were no changes respecting tho placing of other candidates in nomi nation, and tne prospects wcro tho con vention woulfl go through in a continu ous session today and get all the nomi nating speeches out of the wny, leaving tomorrow free for the balloting. No Speech for McAdoo Definite nnd final instructions came from the Enst that McAdoo's name was not formally to bo placed before the convention. Burris Jenkins, of Kansas City, who was prepared to make a- nominating speech for McAdoo, revised..' his plans again and decided to acctda to the wishes of the McAdoo manasers.

Although it was said by administra tion -chiefs that the subcommittees of nine drafting the platform had virtually agreed in nil important particulars, the subcommittee after a brief conference with the entire membersnip of tho resolutions committee made a public announcement that it was not ready to report and would work in, secret until 7:30 tonight, when another report would be made to the full committee. Slightly "Moist" Plank Meanwhile administration chiefs de clared that n prohibition plank, "slightly moist," had been agreed upon which would preclude the adoption of William Jennings Bryan's bone-dry plank. They further predicted with finality that the League of Nations plnnk would be adopted "just ns Woodrow Wilson wants it, without the dotting of an 'l' or the crossing of a V." Although the hour of meeting had been advanced today to 11 o'clock (2 p. m.
