NO AGREEMENT YET REACHED
Oeadlock the All-Absorbing Subject,
But Leaders Cling to Their
Favorite Candidates In
Hope of Split.
Baltimore. Monday found the con

ouo week ago.
When adjournment waB taken for
Sunday it was with the belief that
some solution of the deadlock would
be found, but tho conferences between

uf Speaker Clark, Governor Wilson or
Representative Underwood.
Campaign leaders possibly might
have reached soino agreement if Inter
est la tho deadlock had not been
dwarfed by tho personal controversy
developed between W. J. Bryan and
Speaker Clark. Tho visit of JJr. Clark
to Baltimore and his arrival too lato
to attempt vindication of himself to
the convention, overshadowed every
thing else as a topic for gossip.
Party leaders generally took the po
sition notwithstanding the Missouri

Imputation that ho was bound to
Morgan, Belmont and Ryan, that be
would be unablo to gain tho votes ho
had lost. At tho same time, many of

On Ticket to Stay.
Washington. Representative Under
wood put a damper on tho efforts to
boom him for the vice presidential
nomination by declaring ho was in tho
fight for first place on the democratic
ticket to stay.
Many Wild Rumors.
Baltimoro. Many absurd rumors
were current in tho hotel lobbies. Ono
was that the leadors had agreed upon
the abrogation of tho two-thirds rule
after thirty ballots had been cast,
while there was nnothor report that
an adjournment would be taken after
ten additional ballots and now dele
gates selected for another convention
In August. None of tho rumors wero

Bojh Issue Statements.
Baltimore. Mr. Brjnn sought In a
statement to justify his position In on
posing tho speaker for the presidency
because of tho support given him by
Charles F. Murphy and tho other mem
bers of tho New York delegation de
nominated by tho Nobraskau as "wax
figures."
M,r. Clark declared "falso and in
famous" Mr. Bryan's implied accusa
tions that tho vote of tho Now York
delegation placed him under obliga
tions to J. 1 Morgan. August Bel
mont and Thomas Ryan.
Tho Clark stuteinent was in tlio
form of a letter to Senator William J.
Stono of Missouri, replying to ono
pledging him continued support nnd
urging him to remain a candidate bo
foro tho convention until a nomina
tion was made. Mr. Clark pledged
himself to do so, buf said had It ot
been for tho fact that a majority votu
had been cast for him on ten succes
sive ballots he would not oncourngo
any movement that might tend to cre
ate a deadlock.
"I see no reason why wo should not
conclude the convention with the nom
ination of both a president nnd n vice
president," snld William J. Bryan lato
Sunday night. "The friends or tho
various candidates hne fought out
their differences and their loyalty to
tho men of their choice have con
sumed more time than Is usually de
oted to balloting. There Is eveiy rea
son why the progressives should get
together and select a ticket.

nomination of Judge Parker for tem
porary chairman Is absolutely untrue.
They said that Clark support was di
vided between Parker and Bryan.
Wilson Men Confident.
Baltimore. Tho followers of Wood
row Wilson were In a confident mood
Sunday and several of- the leaders
who wero In communication with Gov
ernor Wilson advised him that his
chances were hourly improving. They
were eager for information from tho,
Clark conferences and to find out If
tho speaker contemplated addressing
the convention. Even should he do
so, however, tho Wilson advisers
wero determined that their candidate
should not come to Baltimoro under
any circumstances.
"We believe that the big break in
tho Clark ranks will come beforo many
more ballots." Bald Representative

Mack Calls Meeting.
Baltimore. National Chairman
Mack called tho representatives of the
parlous candidates together soon after
tho Saturday night session closed with
tho purpose of ascertaining what can
didates, If any, would withdraw and
what dark horse possibly can bo united
on. It was understood that no ropro
sontatlvo of Governor Wilson's can
didacy was presont at this conference.
Underwood Satisfied,
Baltimore. Tho Underwood manag
ers oxprossed themselves as entlroly
satisfied with events up to tho present
time. They bellovo their day is com
ing nnd that their plan of campaign,
which Is a waiting one, has been jus
tified. After tho other leading candi
dates havo demonstrated their Inabil

MALIGNANT UNBELIEF,

John 3.19.
There are two kinds of unbelief de
pleted In this lesson, the mnllgnnnt,
cruel, vindictive unbelief of tho Phari
sees; and the Incredulity, the amaze
ment, the unbeller of tho family nnd
friends of Jesus There aio threo nut
(iral divisions ot this lesson; first
v. 20, 21) tho unbelief of his friends
who, beholding his marvelotisly busy
life, so busy as not to take time to
eat, concluded ho must of necessity
bo insane on the subject or religion,
ns no other explanation would sulllco.
Secondly (v. 22-:!0) tho malignant,
mnllclotis, blind unbelief or the rep
resentatives of tho rulers In .leiusa
lem who had come down to "Investi
gate" the popular Galileo prophet,
that they might find wherewith to "nc
cuso him." Third (v. 31-35) the unbe
lief of those hla nearest of kin who
also sought to testralu nnd to turn
him aside if possible from his ardu
ous labors. Wo hao In this flist
section another of those wonderful gos
pel pictures, just a touch, but so graph
ic, of the eagerness or the multitudes
to see and hear Jesus. Simply to
hoar him wns enough to draw togcthot
a crowd. Yet notice his response, he
would not even iiuso to refresh him
self but the compnsslou of a great
mission compelled him to minister
unto them. What enred ho for rest
or refreshment?
Miracles Explained.
Tho multitude had studied Jcbub an
ho performed his miracles and ac
counted him to bo tho Messiah (Matt
12-23), but tho Pharisees were not
then willing to acknowledge him, for
that would bo to condemn themselves.
However, here aro theso miracles that
demand an explanation, and wo must
remember that these men como with
a predetermined motive, viz., that
they might find whorowlth to accuso
him (seo v. 2 nnd G.) Not accepting
the plain common sense explanation
and his avowed purposo in performing
miracles (Mk. 2-10) they gave out that
It wns by tho power of the Prince of
Devils, Beelzebub, that Jesus perform
ed his mighty deeds. Tho utter fal
lacy of such nn accusation Is shown
by Jesus' reply. Ho did not upbraid
them with auger though their accusa
tion was tho utmost limit of malig
nity. Jesus knew that ho must needs
enduro just such contradictions of
sinners (Isa. 03:3, 4), nevertheless be
exposed their folly (v. 23-27). Jesui
hero gives us a lino example of logic,
which Is simply unanswerable. No
moro can a divided kingdom stand, or
a divided houso stand than for Satai
to fight against himself. No moro car,
tho thief capturo his booty unless he
first finds or deceives the guard, than
for Jesus to fight Satan nnd at the
same time be his vassal. Satan is a
"strong" man (v. 22) and he, Jesus,
came to break, to overcome, thnt pow
er, for he la Inded the stronger one
The subjects of Satan are his slaves.
In the revised version we find
tho correct translation for verso 29.
"Whosoever shall blaspheme against
the Holy Spirit bath novcr forgiveness,
but Is guilty of an eternal eln," thus
effectually setting at rest any thought
of a future probation after our lift
here upon this earth. If when met
love their evil deeds to such an ex
tent that they refuse to walk in the
light and resolutely set their facet
against the true Light, they commit
the last and Irremediable sin.

Bested, If they wero among the friends
mentioned at the outsot seoking to
