ence and, according to their admis
sion, decided to "stand pat" and at
tempt to hold all the votes they
could. They said no attempt would
be made to coalesce with the Palmer
people tonight, because they felt a
breaking of the Palmer block would
turn votes to Cox. The Cox people
at the same time had a conference
and announced they also would
stand pat. ;
As a matter of fact, it appeared
that either the Cox or Palmer forces
would be willing to go to somebody
else if the transition resulted in
losses to each other.
. In short, the Cox people were de
termined to beat McAdoo and the
McAdoo people were no less de
termined to beat Cox. Talk of the
convention going over to next week,
but many of the leaders planning
to ltoldvthc convention 'in session
through the night if necessary, 'said
rticy were sure there would be a
nominee before daylight
At 8j'clock, the hour for reas
sembling, the leaders and delegates
as usual, were late in arriving.
At 8:17 Chairman Robinson began
calling for order. Vance McCor
mick, former chairman of the demo
cratic national committee, recalling
that a democratic convention never
sits on sunaay and predicted no
nomination before midnight, said he
thought the convention would go
over to Monday. The Palmer forces
were making a drive to get back
some of their lost strength as the
convention was coming to order.
Count on Louisiana.'
It was reported that Kansas had
decided to stick with McAdoo for
one more ballot and then caucus to
determine its course. Thre were
reports that delegates would be re
leased from the unit rule in that
delegation. Louisiana, the Crtx peo
ple said, would come to them in a
block, they also expected a return
to their column of the 12 Tennessee
vctcs they had before the whole
delegation went to Davis. The Cox
people were counting on a larger
proportion of the Wisconsin vote
and also accessions from the state
of Washington.

The 18th ballCK was see-saw

change. The Ganges were:
Cox gained 16, McAdoo lost
Palmer lost 1,-Davis lost )S.
Colorado threw one to Cummings
and two to Glass, bringing them back
into the balloting. Talmer and Mc
Adoo stood the losses. It looked as
if the Palmer people' were calling
back "borrowed delegates.
Cox lost on Illinois, Palmer also
lost one there which went to Davis.
McAdoo strength there stood. In
diana stayed with Cox. So did Iowa.
Kansas stuck with McAdoo and
Kentucky remained unchanged with
23 to Cox and three to McAdoo.
Louisiana flopped to Cox with its
whole 20 votes, giving him a gain
of five.s The Cox people set up a new
uproar. '
Cox lost one to Palmer in Massa
chusetts and Owen got one which
had been scattered.
Cox took one from Palmer in
Michigan."
Minnesota stood unchanged.
Start Eighteenth Ballot.
The convention went to the bal
lot for the 18th time.
As it did so the word spread about
that administration men t the con
vention had vetoed Davis and that
the McAdoo and Palmer people were
continuing their efforts to find some
candidate on whom they might agree
to beat Cox. The 18th ballot turned
out to be a see-saw contest without
big changes.

Iowa stood solid for Cox. Kan-

was a fair example of the way things
were going.
Louisiana which had iumoed into
the Cox column on the 17th ballot
called for a pass, evidently talking
it over,

The pipe organ, the convention
band and the' Cox band were in an
ear-splitting contest most of the
time. . Chairman Robinson and
other convention officials, realizing
the futility of attempting to check
what amounted ' to eyerybodies's
demonstration, sat -placidly.. .hoping
the racket and the. exhibition of en
ergy, nervous and otherwise" would
wear itself out. j.
If the tradition that" a democratic
convention never worked on .Sun
day was good, the demonstration
signalized the postponement of the
nomination until Monday, because

convention looked for all the world
as ifit had gone mad.
Demonstration Dies Down.
Then as suddenly as it began, the
demonstration began to die away and
the convention went back to ex
amine itself and see whether it had
shouted and wiggled itself out of a
deadlock. It apparently had not and
proceeded to the 19th ballot.

McAdoo had been going down
since the loth ballot and his recov

neither delegates nor alternates to

pated in by a large proportion of
delegates, it made up in volume
for what it lacked in numbers and
whenever the racket on the floor
gave evidence ot a slump tne gal
leries .bolstered it up with new en
thusiasm. Meanwhile Chairman Rod
inson sat patiently twirling his gavel
n hand, almost, tondling it as a
hunter fondles a gunHvith which he
has brought dawn .much game. He
didn't seem to be much disturbed at
the way the noise makers were using
up time and there was a suggestion
that the convention officials were
perfectly agreeable to let the
convention wear itself down to the
point of exhaustion, where it would
not resist an adjournment.
At the conclusion of the announce
ment of the 20th .ballot Thomas- J.
Spellacy of Connecticut moved I an
adjournment .until Monday morning
and Senator Pat Harrison of the
Mississippi delegation, a Cox man
ager, demanded a roll call vote on
the adjournment proposition. The
motion was lost by 638 noes to 477
ayes.
At the opening of the 21st ballot
all eyes were turned toward Penii
svlvania. The Cox people claimed
that when the break came they
would have (the best of it in both
states.
Cox lost two to McAdoo in Louisi
ana. In Massachusetts, McAdoo
gained four, taking two from Cox.
McAdoo and Cox each gained
two in Missouri. '
Montana's eight went to McAdoo,
taking four from Cox.
Nebraska gave seven to McAdoo,
taking five from Cox,

one in New York, making it 17,
but without loss to Cox.
North Dakota went wholly into
the McAdoo column.
Tennessee jumped back to Davis
with 24, taking votes from McAdoo,
Cox and Palmer.
McAdoo in Wisconsin, gained
five from Cox. '

."0; Palmer lo,st 34 and Davis gained
18. Owen lost five.
A recess to Monday morning at

Motion' to Adjourn.
The changes w ere that McAdoo
lost 23, Palmer gained 22 H, Cox
gained four, Davis lost two. Then
there was another motion to adjourn
until 10 o'clock Monday morning,
and it xyent through without opposi
tion. The first votes to be cast for
Woodrow Wilson in the convention
came tonight from Missouri, two
of them. Contrary to expectation,
they did not cause any particular
demonstration in the convention.
The twenty-second ballot was as
much out of luck as its predecessors.
It produced no nominee and came
nowhere near making any change
worth while.
No dark horse appeared during the
night's balloting to carry off the hon
ors and the convention adjourned
just as much in need of somebody
to rally about as it was when it
began the balloting. It was in a
deadlock with nobody in sight to
break it. Sunday will be devoted to
efforts to finding schnebody the con
vention can swing to.

Mad Rush of NonMoslems for
European Headgear, Follow

' Allies.
By PAUL WILLIAMS.
thlmifo Trlhunn Foreign Newa SrrTirrt
Constantinople," July 4. Fezzes
are fewer in Constantinople than for
perhaps 50 years, and rne number of
them seen on the streets is decreas
ing every day.
This is quite a difference from
wartime, when every man, by de
cree of the sultan, wore no other
headgear in public. If he did some
Turk knocked off the offending lid,
probably poked the Offender in the
eye, and saw that he was placed id
prison. ' The armistice forecast more
freedom in men's wear. When al
lied troops came to the city thou
sands of - non-Moslems took off
their fezzes and used them for foot
balls. Then thiy went down to the
store "to 'buy a hat. The demand
for more modern coverings for the
sconce exhausted the supply, and
some of the styles latecomers had to
satisfy themselves with caused their
wives to forsgo the usual family
promenade on Sunday afternoon.
But, time and imports corrected the
evil, so that every man could put on
his hat and regard himself in a mir
ror without shame.
But not all non-Moslems dis
carded the fez. Thousands continued
to wear them because they thought
it good policy; some hoped thereby
to conceal from the genwal pub
lic their true nationality, ami many
had other private and particular rea
sons. But these began taking to
new top pieces about three months
ago, when the attitude of aHied per
sonnel here experienced a marked
change. It cooled materially and in
a considerable number of instances
personal friendship between the al
lied personnel and Turks altered to
a mere nod or that "1 never saw
you before look. The city s hat
ters smiled smugly as their daily
balances grew.
The allies officially occupied Con
stantinople March 16. That week
residences of the European auarter
shed fezzes like they were an afflic
tion. Another effect of the occupa
tion upon the non-Moslems was to
embolden them toward the Turks.
