The second part is a " Ladies Minstrel." the ladies will appear in black face and a very amusing and clever minstrel show has been planned. The entertainment is progressing in fine shape with the discovery of a number of local people, who are showing remarkable ability, it bids fair to be one of the best affairs of its kind yet se-n in Hammond.

backwardness is fully appreciated here. 3 James M. Cox governor of Ohio, is the closest actual rival of McAdoo. His boosters are not giving out figures. He may show equally with McAdoo on the first ballot and the tendency will be to grow, but whether he can leap the 728 gap is a question. MARSHALL IS STVMVKn 4 Thomas Riley Marshall is somewhat stunned today by the rising tide of popular talk about his presidential can didscy. but it is not likely that he wrr! have much more than a native son vote on the first ballot. Maybe it will grow to sizeable proportions. Then will come the long list of favorite sons, with an aggregate of some 30ft pledged votes among them. Gov. Edward I. Edwards of New Jersey, the wet advocate, appears not to have gone beyond New Jersey's twenty-eight votes in strength. There is a question whether Gov. Smith, of Xew Tork, can lay claim to Xew York's ninety votes as the unit rule may be broken even on the first ballot. John W. Davis of West Virginia, may have a few more than the sixteen votes of his state delegation. Homer S. Pummings will get Connecticut's fourteen votes and may show more strength. Carter Glass gets twenty-four Virginia votes and is in the running a trifle. Senator Robert L. Owen of Oklahoma has his stated twenty . votes as a nest egg. Others with pledged home state delegations are Senator Hitchcock of Xebraska. sixteen votes, former Ambassador to German Gerard, with South Dakota's ten votes and Senator Simmons of South Carolina, with eighteen votes. In today's session former Ambassador Gerard will probably he honored by the first nominating speech, as Arkansas will yield to South Dakota when the roll of states is called. It is possible that Alabama may yield to some other state and thus precipitate a surprise. But these candidate racers come up to the wire with the nervousness of thoroughbreds and no one cares to "beat the barrier" lest the finish be bad. I. G. Cherry, of

Sioux Falls. S.' D., is named to nominate Gerard. Homer S. Cummings is next scheduled for the tapis John Crosby being prepared to voice his need of praise. Florida is scheduled to yield to W. Virginia and the name of John W. Davis will be snt up on a narrow shot by Stfphen G. Jackson.

Georgia will yield to Pennsylvania and A. Mitchell Palmer lot will be cast by John H. Bigelow. of the anthracite town of Hazelton, Pa. Secretary of Agriculture Meredith's name will be put into the big: hopper by Claude R. Porter .of Iowa. When Kansas is called W. W. Rose, of Kansas City will, independently of his delegation, present the name of Ambassador Brand Whitlock. according: to his own statement. The Kansas delegation is uninstructed. but are counted upon as McAdoo adherents. Burris Jenkins, the minister-editor of Kansas City. Mo., at this point, is prepared to and says he will propose the name of Wm. Glbbs McAdoo. Following the naming: of Senator Hitchcock by former Gov. Shallenberger of Xebraska and Gov. Edwards by Chaslea F. X. O'Brien of Jersey City and the presentation of G-ov. Al Smith, by some unknown. James M. Cox's big balloon will be sent into the air by Judge James G. Johnson, of Columbus, O. Robert L. Owen will be named by D. Haden Linebaugh. of Muskogee. Senator Simmons, of South Carolina. Secretary of the Navy Daniels of Xorth Carolina, and Senator Walsh, of Mass.. may be the subject of speeches when their states are reached. Vice-President Marshall's name will not formally be placed in nomination by the Indiana delegation, if his request is respected, but he will get the votes. It is not definitely arranged to have anything more than a few kind word. for Senator Glass by some member of the Virginia delegation. Glass being the local head and front of the McAdoo movement. The eighteenth man, if any. is the dark horse.

Atty. Gen. A. Mitchell Palmer and Gov. James M. Cox, of Ohio, continue to be the Wood and Lnwden of the democratic convention. Their strength

so far as can be observed, has not '

increased noticeably during the week. The general opinion in San Francisco is that they will make their respective races in the first few ballots and then quietly fade. BALLOTING PROBABLY FRIDAY It is likely that the balloting stage can not be reached before late tomorrow or Friday, if then. The platform committee is not expected to bring in a report until late today. If William Jennings Bryan and some of the other White House foes can be muzired to prevent a floor fight against its adoption, it will be speedily ratified a nominee developed and everybody can go homo. If the platform, however, is brought in in such shape that Bryan and others cannot swallow it whole, than a floor fight undoubtedly will develop, delaying the whole program and put off the picking of a candidate until Saturday. It waa the concensus of opinion of party leaders and visitors here that come what may, the convention can be ended by Saturday night. The president ha-s enough supporters In this convention to put over almost anything the White House desires. This haa been shown by every vote on the floor and off it. to date.
