Mr. Bryan was flattened out every time
he raised his head in protest ngalnst the

been waiting from .lanuarv 8. when
Bryan had his inning at the Jackson
'Day dinner. The President's friends
made a good Job of rebuking the

In the battle for the platform, ns

"The validity of the riehtnenth

any laws enacted under its authority

Service Men Win Point
Chairman Olas.s won his fight to

had been adopted b the nnieutlon

This was inserted by a vote of 32 to
IS in the committee. It had the effect
of satisfying all the potent factors of
the party counsels, eveu though the ad
ministration would rather have left it
out since it did not originate in the
White House, and ideas not emanating
from that source have been like home
less orphans out here. As a way of
letting down easily the twenty -one
Democrats who finally voted for rati
fication of the treaty with the Lodge
reservations rather than ve it com
pletely defeated as Mr. AVilson'a
stubbornness compelled. It was a far
cleverer stratagem than the inane
phrase of tbe Chicago plank praising
the action of the Republican senators
indiscriminately, though they were dia
metrically apart in their attitudes.
Incidentally the clause opens the way
for graceful acceptance by the party
and Mr. Wilson of ratification with
compromise reservations.
The effect of this pronouncement
ought to be to call forth a fearless
and ringing announcement from Sena
tor Harding in accordance with the
position be personally assumed as a re
visionist in favor of ratifying the treaty.
Whatever harm the treaty question has
done to the Republican party has al

strength to 'McAdoo were heard early
today. Leaders in the Empire state
delegation, however, would not discuss
this except to say they would stick
to their governor until further notice.
Big Crowd on Hand
Another big crowd was on hand to
watch the delegates pick the party's
nominees, the final act of the convention
which has been in session six tinys.
While predictions of n McAdoo vie
tory on an early ballot fill the nir they
are accompanied by a desperate stiffen
ing of resistance against his nomina
tion. McAdoo or Cox and McAdoo and
Cox were the leading predictions,
coupled with talk of McAdoo and Merc
tilth. On the other hand the forces pitted
against McAdoo pointed out in answer
to the claims of a "glacier movement"
toward President Wilson's son-in-law
that be had failed in the three ballots
already taken to make the gains that
were claimed for him.
The night was given over to confer
ences and planning among the field
marshals of the opposing forces. Efforts:
to find u Harding for the San Fran
cisco convention had been unavailing,
but despite the fact that the movement
in opposition to McAdoo bad failed to
produce a rallying point, or to "coal
esce." ns Its enemies declared, tho op
position was still there, seemingly of
formidable proportions.
While it did seem to offer no slate
for beating McAdoo, still it continued
to occupy a position where tbe McAdoo
forces had produced no tangible plan for
beating it.
McAdoo Leaders I.arh Authority
One consideration which seemed to
make it difficult for the anti-McAdoo
forces to make progress was that there
was no wav to trade McAdoo out of
his position bv direct methods, ns none
of the men in charge of his campaign
here had nn.v authority nnd there was
nothing to be offered him in way of a
place thnt would interest him.
The McAdoo -ippeol was today being
directed to larger states, such as New
York. Pennsylvania and Illinois, nnd
much missionarj work was being done.
.New loi-K was the greatest stum
bling block.
McAdoo supporters in the Xew York
delegation faid to number anywhere
from fifteen to thirty, did nothing in
the opening ballots to antagonize the
Tamman.v leaders.
'lhey voted solidlv for Governor
Smith This situation, it was pointed
out. gave all outside appearunce of
Murphy being in control.
Another consideration being capital
ized by the McAdoo supporters was that
Sunday and Monday are holidays and
the tired delegates want to start home.
A group of McAdoo delegates, de
clared by McAdoo supporters to rep
resent more than fnough votes to block
the convention, at a meeting last night
pledged themselves to vote indefinitely
for their candidate regardless of any
turn the convention might take.
EDWARDS STANDS PAT
Believes Convention Will Act on His
"Personal Liberty" Stand
Sea Girt. X. J., July 3. With news
of the result of the first ballot at the
Democratic Xational Convention in
hand. Governor Edwards this morning
decided to stand pat for the present.
Xo word has been received from his
supporters m the far West, and no
mes-age has been sent to them.
The gov n nor said he was surprised
that he stood fifth on the first ballot,
in view of the failure of the convention
to put a wet plank in the platform. He
still believes the convention will nomi
nate a candidate who will take a firm
stand one wav or another on bis per
sonal libortv .stund and it was evident
from this conversation this morning that
he doubts whether ony of the three
leading figures in the convention. Mc
doo Co and Palmer, will be named
He apparently thinks a dark horse se
lection Is jot tn be made, but would
not discuss bis personal chances
With James R Xugent, of Essex
countv. leaving San Francisco after his
failure to force a wet plank into the
platform, the Xew Jersey delegation
will keep in close touch "with Governor
Edwards here, It is understood. It is
known that before they swerve to the
support of any other candidate they

Other Side Scared
(Ily CLINTON V. (UMir.HT)
Continued fr0m Taut One
on the camp of the opposition. Mc
Adoo has become definitely the admin
istration candidate. Mitchell Palmer
is forced into the opposition.
Palmer's weakness as a candidate
was demonstrated on the early ballots.
He fell fnr short of the vote he had
been expected to obtnin And ns n
member of the President's cabiuet lie
ennnot long occupy the position of co
operating with the opposition to the
administration. Moreover, his own
Pennsylvania delegation is aninus to
go over to the suppoit of the adminis
trntion candidate, Mr McAdoo.
A fire has been built under Mr.
Mitchell Palmer.
Take Mr. McAdno's other chief rival.
Governor Cox. His weakness with only
134 votes on the first ballot and l.'ft on
the second has been plainly shown. It
Is believed that McAdoo malingers will
offer Governor Cox second place on the
ticket with Mr. McAdoo. and that
Governor Cox will accept it.
Boss Taggart Mnrklng Time
Furthermore. Mr McAdoo may make
Inroads into the forces of the opposi
tion nt other points. Bo's Taggnrt. of
Indiana. . doet not think well of his
prospects of election as senator, if by
his nctions here, and in Chicago, he gets
the anti-administration stamp upon
himself..
At present he Is doing the perfectly
innocent thing of supporting his state's
favorite son. Vice- President Marshall.
So long as he Is supporting a favorite
son, his conduct is politically exemplary
nnd nbove reproach.
But when it becomes necessary to
make n choice of supporting Mr, Mc
Adoo or the opposition. Mr. Taggart
will have to be shown that Mr, Mc
Adoo is stopped or lie will be the best
little administration man of them all
and throw Indiana's vote to McAdoo.
Indiana's going to McAdoo, or Penn
sylvania's going to McAdoo, or Ohio's
going to McAdoo is likely to start the
rush that will lead to his nomination.
Administration Convention
It is an administration convention. It
may pay splendid personal tributes to
Mr. Bryan, but it votes overwhelmlnglv
for the administration against him. It
cast only oue vote for Mr. Bryan's queer
plank favoring a government publica
tion in which political candidates should
air their views. And it onl.v cast a few
more than that for Mr. Bryan's prompt
ratification of the league covenant with
reservations plunk.
It gave him a tiemendous and spon
taneous ovation when he finished his
eloquent speech in behalf of his dry
plank, one of the most eloquent speeches
of his career, nn ovation in which the
standards of all the states except a few'
very wet ones like Xew York and Xew
Jersey were carried in front of tho
platform in Brjnn's honor.
But a few moments later it gave him
onl.v a few votes, IB." in fact, for his
dry plank, although a majority of the
convention is dry.
Bread-and-Butter Votes Cast
The convention is not bossed, nt least
there is no perceptible bossing. It
votes with the administration for
brend-and-butter reasons. It contains
ofilccholdeis.
It counts its chance of success rs
dependent upon supporting the ad
ministration. The fact that Mr.
McAdoo. without any sign from the
White House, figures in every one's
mind as the administration, is the
strongest reason for his nomination.
The Democratic convention is the
greatest show on earth. Xothing like
the debate on the platform yesterday
afternoon has been staged by either
party in u long time.
Fight Made in Open
The divisions in the Democracy on
booze, the League of Nations, on
Ireland antl on every pet idea of Mr.
Bryan's were brought out in the open
antl discussed before the free Demo
crats in the auditorium assembled, the
free Democrats being left to make their
choice for themselves between Mr.
Bryan's leadership and Mr. Wilson's.
The occasion was brilliant. If Mr.
Bryan had a powerful nnd sane intel
lect along with his marvelous voice,
his tremendous personality, his deep and
abiding perception of the moral veri
ties, he would be a very great man. But
he hasn't and he is only a great moral
showman, a political P. T. Barnum,
differing from the circus producer only
in rejecting the cvnlcal dictum that the
people like to be fooled,
Bryan gave a great show yesterday.
It was a tremendous movie of virtue
defying the powers of evil. The rich
and powerful voice, undermined by
the passing of twenty -four years since
first it rang out against the cross of
gold and crown of thorns, unrestricted
by the fat which is being deposited
about the chamber from which it comes,
required no mechanical aid to fill the
immense hall
Mr. Bryan broke free from the great
starfish of tin horns over the rostrum
which carries the speaker's voice to the
remote galleries lie did not have to
stand in one spot for fear of getting out
of favor with the great starfish and
causing strange bellowings to echo
through the tin monster.
Was Able to Bait Tammany
He could go to the front of the plat
form and bait evil lu thu person of the
Tammany delegation, defying it to show
that It bad ever opposed the saloon
until after prohibition hud been estab
lished by constitutional amendment. The
whole Tammany delegation rote and in
sisted that it had been the only and
original opponent of the saloou, Miss
Elizabeth Morbuiy seizing some Tam
many delegate's straw hot and waving
it defiantly at virtue upon the plat
form. Mr. Bryan passed lightly from the
sauclnesa of Miss Marbury to a compari
son of himself, to Hhf Bjophat Elijah and
XI how MlkLAaKb1" tho veil
' r itmmif-'- . t
and showed tho higher powers fighting
upon the sltlo of Israeli Then Mr,
Bryan drew back the veil, revealing the
women and children fighting on bis side ,
and that of prohibition.
He sat down after ono of his most
striking perorations nnd one of his most
dramatic speeches. And he was erected
hv the most spontaneous and the great
est demonstration ot the convention.
one not aided by music or cucerlcad
ing. There was a let of Armageddon spirit
of the progressive convention of 1U12.
These Democrats are likely to stnrt out,
and sing "Onward. Christian Soldiers,"
at any minute. They hnvc followed so
long the Old Testament leadership of
Mr. Brvan, they have been so Impressed
with the mornl earnestness of Presi
dent Wilson, thev have fallen under the
influence of women to uu extent that
Republicans have not. Their emotional
reactions are much quicker, keener than
those of their rivals. They still have
in them the crushing spirit which Presi

bv his advocacy of the League of Xa

n vital nope, net ODScurea oy tne cynic
ism which has chnnged the heart of so
much of the world. The League of
Xations Is to them n real issue on

to hit the cinder trail', but they stick
to the true faith "the political evangel

Mayor Reviews
6 M.onths Progress
Continued from t'nee On
tions work had commenced when the
era of vastly inflated prices for labor
nnd material set In. It was decided
to complete this portion of the work
and then wait the inevitable reduction
thnt must come In cost of material be
fore proceeding further with the ac
cepted plan.
Civil Service Classified
"Classification of the civil service
which we hnve established Is n great
nnd needed reform." the Mayor further "" cuy. ivvery cmin urougnr against
explained. "When It Is completed It the municipality for damages is Inves-vv-lll

of citv emploves nnd equalize wages. , . It is no longer possible to put
We shall 'classify all departmis and over J shady or fraudulent olnir .and
all of the county offices tiiat win suu
mlt tn classification."
To understand just what this means
it should be known that wages for the
same class of city employes varied In
different departments. It wns n regu
lar plgs-in-clover puzzle. Tho new
charter provided for reclassification
and the work was undertaken by Grif
fenhngen & Associates ond is still in
progress.
ruder the new sjstem the wages
of carpenters, watchmen, stenographers.
etc.. will be unirorm mrougnout mo
departments.
' "We nrc, going ahead with our plans
and estimates, looking to the work of
the city taking over the ash and rubbish
collection nnd the cleaning of the
streets." the Mayor went on. taking a
new tacit in the interview. "I shall
have a report on the subject of how
this is done In other American munici
palities lu n short time. I hove had
investigntors gathering nil available
data. Later on I may have something
very definite to say on this matter."
What the Mayor referred to was
the tour of Chief Morden. of the
bureau of street cleaning, undertaken
recently. He wns accompanied by one
of the engineers of the Department of
Public Works nnd on expert furnished
by the bureau of municipal research.
One of the keynote declarations of
Mayor Moore during his primary cam
paign was his determination ' to break
the strangle bold of the contractor com
bine in street clenuing. His statement
was gratifying evidence that the matter
Is still uppermost in his mind : evidence
thnt he proposes to carry tho charter
provision and his promises to comple
tion. Work on Frankford "L"
"I desire to direct attention to tho
work of the administration in the mat
ter of the Frankford 'L'," snid Mr.
Moore. "Through great discourage
ment and repented disappointments I
have kept eonstuntlv before me the ono
idea that the road must be put into
operation in the shortest possible time.
"In our attempts to make contracts
for rails we sufferer interference from
the railroad administration. I finallv
overcame this. We have let contract's
for the stations, and shall soon open
bids for u $4.0n0,n00 loan to complete
the work.
"Xegotiatlons. ns evervbodv knows,
are in progress with the Rapid Transit
Co. for the operation of the road. All
in nil, I think the verv best has been
done thnt could be done, considering nil
the circumstances. The administration
has fought to secure everv ndvantago
for the cit.v, ond particularly for the
northeastern section, and shall continue
to do so.
"In this some connection are the
projected lines nlong Roosevelt boule
vard and other thoroughfares, which
will be feeders frr some of the greatest
industrial enterprises in Philadelphia;
the Sears, Roebuck & Co.'s plant ond
the Klectrlc Storage Battery are con
tiguous to these extensions. '
"Two million dollars' worth of con
tracts have been let for the improvement
and extension of our water svstexn,"
continued the Mavnr. "It is in line
with mv desire to ctve thn cltv ni nrlo.
quote and pure-vvater stipplv. Much
of this money has been spent for im
provements ana replacements in ma
chinery. "There is under advisement at this
moment the question of a commission of
experts to undertake a complete survey
of our water supply and to examine and
report upon an expansion of the pres
ent system, with a new and greater field
w,i,nbl' " h'.Pw,,s f th0 cl in th0
years to come.
There is one episode in connection
with the Water Bureau that concerns
the Mayor poi6onnlv, as well as offl
clolly. Governor Coolldge, of Massachusetts,
was mado the vice presidential nomi
nee largely on the basis of the fight he
made and the defiance lu launched
against the police strikers of Boston.
And yet Major Moore went tho gov
ernor one better and there were merely
a few brief newspaper lines to give the
bare farts.
A few months ago a delegation of
water bureau employes, members of the
union, called on the Mayor aud de
manded an increase of wages. The
Mayor tolked to the men and explained
the impossibility of granting the re
quest at that time.
Ho expressed himself in favor of a
rise nil around, but told how the city
was handicapped by lack of funds.
There were statements then mado
by some of the men that unless a rise
was given the employes would striko
and thus cut off the city's water.
Instantly tho Mn.vor replied, firmly
and brleilv, after pointing out the dan
ger and disaster that would follow the
shutdown of the water system w Ith the
announcement thnt no matter what tho
men did the .water pumping stntions
would be kept running and that no man
who struck would ever get back in the
city's service as long as he was Mayor.
No Genera! Striko
Although a few men walked out there
was no general strike, and the number
of employes involved was three or four
times as many as the policemen who
truck jn Postoi,, Tho courageous ae-

tion of the Mayor ended what' might
have turned out to be a crisis in the
city's affairs.
, "Kvery possible means has been de
vised to prevent waste of the taxpayers'
money," the Mayor said further. "By
improving the Chestnut street pier so
that it can be utilized, in part, as of
fices for the Department of Wharves,
Dorks and Kerrles. we will "nvp an an
nual rental of $10,000 now paid for
quarters elsewhere.
"We are advertising the city's advan
tages as the finest port In the United
States. Wo are negotiating for more
piers nnd pier spoce. Tho commerce of
the port Is greater now than ever in Its
history.
"These are some of the major thirgs
we havo undertaken. Of the in(nor
matters thnt attract little attention,
but which are big in their way. is the
conversion of Brown's Farm into n
homo for indigent children. It is n
great step forward in the care of these
helpless little wards of the city,.
"The ofgnnlzation of a bureau of
claims- in the city .solicitor's office has
already saved thousands of dollars to
collect on It. There was never such nn
official scrutiny.
. Conducted Like a Big Corporation
"Still further along that Hue." con
tinued the Mayor, "is the new rule that
every attorney handling damage and
claim cases must mnke n report on it to
the city solicitor himself. The city so
licitor's office Is run on the principle of
a big corporation and with the snme at
tention to detail in the city's interest."
While the Mayor did not refer to the
snbjert directly it is asserted with the
utmost positlveness that there is less
gambling in Philadelphia nt present
than nt any other period In the last
ten years.
"Within the Inst few days 1 have
signed contracts for tho repaving of
Ridge avenue, from Lament street to
tho Montgomery county line. We nro
preparing plans for the extension of
the city's sewerage system, and hnve
opened streets in various sections of the
city to permit of greater building nnd
housing facilities ; nil of which follows
upon my expressed purpose to do all
po'ssible in that direction."
There will be n new loan asked for
this fall of $0,000,000, for the pressing
necessities of the city nnd a share of
this will go to still greater extension
of the sewerage and water systems.
Xew parks and breathing snots for the
people will also come in fdr a shore
of it.
In past years it was difficult to se
cure more than two or three bids for
supplies for the cit.v. It was the result
of an established belief among business
firms thnt favoritism was practiced to
an extent thnt barred all but the few.
Today, with an expert in charge of
the department, and on the basis of the
square deal, scores of bids are sub
mitted,, where the few was tbe rule in
tbo past.
Wasto of Money to Rush Now
Throughout the interview the Mayor
emphasized, in matters demanding the
expcndituio of the city's money for new
contracts for building and other city
improvements, the necessity for going
slowly. His idea Is that it is n waste
of public money to rush ahend and pay
exorbitant prices, in contracts, when a
little later the same results will bo at
tained at far less cost.
Where, however, the need is immedi
ate and imperative, as in the matter of
new fire npparatus, for which $300,000
has been appropriated for motor-driven
vehicles to replace the antiquated horse
drawn apparatus, delay, despite the in
creased cost, would be disastrous.
"Ono other innovation." snid the
Mayor in concluding his talk, "which
will bo of pronounced valuo to many
of our people is the establishment of a
bureau of legal aid. Attorneys nnd in
vestigators will be nt the serviro of our
people who cannot afford to employ
lawyers, and who aro too often the
victims of sharpers, to assist them in
their troubles. It is one of the legiti
mate functions of a municipality to help
those who cannot help themselves.
"This administration." said the
Major, "was put in power to benefit the
wholo peoplo, and that shall be its solo
aim until Its close."

ANOTHER BIG SEIZURE
OF BOOZE AT SHORE
Forty Cases Brought From
Pennsylvania Confiscated by
Atlantic City Police
Atlantic City. July .1. Suspicions of
government "dry" agents that syndi
cates are making Atlantic City the ob
jective of large shipments of "wet
goods" were practically confirmed early
today with the seizure of another truck
load of liquors, the second within a
week, counting the capture of $17,000
worth of whisky nt English Creek on
Sunday,
Today's seizure was eff6eted by the
Atlantic City police, and marks their
first active participation in the enforce
ment of the Volstead act. Four men
were arrested, one of whom surrendered
under fire nfter he had hurled a bottle
rf bourbon at a policeman.
The prisoners are Otto Kirkman nnd
Charles Theiss, both of Xew York, who
are alleged to have been in charge of
the truck, and Samuel Grots and B. V.
Green, both of this city. '
The whisky, now stored in city joil
cells, comprises forty -four cases brought
from Pennsylvania. It is said the Xew
Yorkers had established headquarters lit
a garage after running a government
gauntlet in bringing the truck into tho
resort. The charge is made that they
were "peddling" the liquor by tele
phone. When one of the prisoners threw a
bottle It struck Policeman King in the
hand. The latter drew a revolver and
fired when he thought the four meant
to mnke a brenk for liberty. Tho bullet
struck lvdvvurd Moy. chauffeur for a
Xew York visitor, in the foot. His in
jury is not serious. May also is being
held to determine whether he had any
part in tho whisky plot.
