Bromo Seltzer Sluggish and In Poor Demand at Frisco Delegates Rise on Sunday Clothed in Right Minds After Week of Gruelling Work Democratic Convention Sets New Mark in History of Like Session Resembles Huge Session of Horse Play. By EYE WITNESS. ' fhleago Tribune-Omaha Be Leased Wire. San Francisco,' July 5. The Sun day morning calm after a hard week and everybody almost everybody clothed and in his right mind, and as sober as Mr. Bryan. Scores of the lads went to mass this morning. The bromo seltzer market is slug gish. The hot towel is not in demand. The hangover is sporadic, not ep idemic. , ' There never was a democratic convention interlude like it before. , Emphatically this is not because there was not strain and uncertainty enough . in last night's exercises to send statesmen flying to the bottle. There was. All agree that not in years of convention war tug and war crying has there been anything to surpass it. Who shall adequately picture the big noise? Who shall visualize the vigor of the game in its tensest mo ment? ' - The words for it all are used up and worn ot4t and yet the spectacle, familiar as it is and enulessly writ ten about as it has been, remains one that is worth putir.g on pa per. It is the spectacle of a thou sand accredited representatives en gaged in a homeric kind of horse play while fhey, rough out the fu ture for millions of their party fol lowers. . Thrills Galore. It is the spaciousness of this spec tacle that saves it from contempt. Horseplay by a couple. of thousand delegates and alternates and with nearly 10,000 looking on, and, in so far as they dare, joining in, will pro vide a sumptuous thriM ;,nc create in the most detached witness an ir resistible, if somewhat shamefaced, joy. It may not be the best way to choose your potential king-man but it is our way and, despite Thomas Carlyle, the republic sur vives it. What saves the system from utter grotesqueness and the state from shipwreck is the astounding capacity for instant readjustment by the men who make the system function. Votes mount, veer, sink, are feverishly traded, and compromises are frantically broached and re jected amid surges of tumft non sense that would make bedlam so licitous for the sanity of the world outside its. walls. You see the stand ard of Hawaii lurching toward the ;platform in the hands of an islander with a festal pink wreath around his black fedora. He is the sworn ally for the moment of a yowling Coxite from Ohio with green feath ers in his 'derby and the tossing Ohio standard in his hands. Both men make sufficiently ridiculous fig ures in their present mood of yeowl to warrant their detention in a, psychopathic ward were they out side of a national convention hall, Carry Majestic Message. Yet there is a majestic message even in them. The mere fact of their propinquity in this crazy house is eloquent. For there they are the man of the Buckeyes and the man with the festival wreath of a remote and vanishing race around his black fedora. It visualizes itself thus this vivid and far flung geography, I mean time and again. The Canal Zone so distributes its two votes that on the 16th ballot the 18 Massachusetts men who are' for McAdoo give it greeting and the 73 Pennsylvanians who are sticking to Palmer hobnob with it.

Members of the Iowa-Nebraska-Minnesota Wholesale Grocers' asso ciation, which has its headquarters in Council Bluffs, have been cited by the federal trade commission in a formal complaint which charges, un fair competition. John Mehlhop of Council Bluffs is secretary-lreasurer of the association and one of the officers named in the citation. Others are John Blaul of Burlington, la., president; O. J. Moore of Sioux City, la., vice presi dent; John D. Fuller of Hastings, Neb., vice president. The commission is given a 40-day period to file an . answer to the charge, following which the case comes up before the commission for hearing. The above-namedmen will be required to appear before the board as representatives of the asso ciation. The citation alleges that it is the association's policy and plan to pre vent non-member grocery concerns trom competing by shutting ott their supply of foods and products from the manufacturers. It states that this has been accomplished by means of boycotts and withdrawal of patronage. ' Market Hot Towels ly drink tea with them in Downing street. Here we bring them from the isthmus of our hemisphere and from the islands of the Caribbean and the Pacific and play horse with them and they like it and say', "We, too, are" children of the republic." Ten thousand look on at this frolic of commonwealths and de pendencies in wide-eyed expectancy of the king-man's name coming out of it all. ( It does not. At the droning cry, "the ayes seem to have it,' the ayes have it and the convention stands adojurned," and at the decisive smack of the gavel which puts a period to the drone, all these maniacs, recruited from Cancer to Capricorn gather up their rattles and toy balloons, wave good-night to the b.ind and go yuietly home to bed. In a trice they have reacted from the common place and the common sensible. They have become as tractable as children. The ayes did not seem to have it and did not have it, and the grinning chairman knew they did not when he said it. But it was time to go to bed, and to bed he sent them. ' They went without a murmur. Clothed in Right Minds. Now let me give you a hint of the. contrast which Jhe Sabbath quierf and sobriety have created. Like the lunatic in the Bible. I re peat these lunatics of 'ast night are clofned in their right minds now. The most methodical and matter of fact way they are going about looking for a potential king-man without any divorces in his family and their political state of mind is compounded of just three very ob vious and .wholly understandable impulses and reactions of the ordi nary human mind. It is not diffi cule to individualize these impulses a.id reactions which govern thisj Lord's day groping for the potential king-man and this mental state of the delegates as a party is a reflec tion of the mental, state of three men There is not a veteran politician in either party that does not retain a lively remembrance of the lesson which the -foul campaign of 1884 taught party men in the bitterest way. They know that a story of broken or of irregular domestic re lations, though it would not, if all the story were told, disgrace the candidate, can in the welter of a campaign be so twisted and turned and distorted that it can ruin that candidate and pillory him as a no torious libertine and profligate be fore hundreds of thousands of per sons. The democratic politicians seeking their king-man here have no stom ach for a repetition of what Andrew D. White called "The vilest political campaign ever wag?d." Remember George Curtis. They have not forgotten the story of George William Curtis' ashen face of woe when he came into the Lotus club and said, "Have you seen the Buffalo paper?" The slanders about their king man then nearly cost them victory and would have cost them victory of, as Blaine said, the Lord had not sent an ass in the guise of a preacher to undo the republicans. An electorate singularly sensitive to a candidate's relations with his women folk, and singularly censor ious about any trouble he may have had in that quarter, must be con sidered. And that goes double now that the electorate comprises wom en. They were an influence in this direction bciore they had a vote. Now that thfy have it they are a direct factor. 1 And for that reason, if for no other, the Coxites and their Piqua silver cornet band did not stampede the requisite 260 delegates to their banners during the hurly burly of the most spectacular of last evening's walk arouuds, CANDIDATES FOR SECOND PLACE HAVE HARD TIME Delegates Refuse to Take Aspirants for Second Place On Ticket Seriously Be fore Nomination. By GRAFTON S. WILCOX, Chicago Tribune-Omaha Bee Leased Wire. San Francisco, July '5. Favor ite son candidates Tor the demo cratic vice presidential nomination here continue to have a hard time getting delegates to give them a hearing. Whenever a candidate for second place sends his emissaries to a neighboring delegation with an ap peal for support, he usually 'gets this message back: "How do yo get that way? Wait till we get a nominee for president before you worry us with second place talk." , , California democrats want repre sentation on the ticket. They say that the democrats will have a good chance to carry California with a native son on the ticket and Raker is being groomed for the race. If the presidential nominee conies from the middle west California insists that her claims be recognized for the vice presidential place. Kakcr, of course, is a dry. He is good strong administration" man, right on suffrage, strong in his war record, popular among the people and pretty well known in the east itecause of his long service in con Jfgress, where he'hs taken prominent pan in icgisiduve unaiis. Of all the candidates mentioned for the vice presidency, the man talked about most in convention hall lobbies is Secretary of Agriculture Meredith of Iowa. His friends say he might consider second place if he is not nominated lor president, and they insist he still is a sizeable dark horse for first honors, not withstanding the secretary's declar ation that he is not a candidate for president. The big leaders of the party like the way Meredith would size up for vice president. "Keep your eye on Carter H. Har rison of Chicago for second place" is frequently heard when available vice'presidential timber is casually discussed. Notwithstanding that the Illinois delegation is instructed for. James Hamilton Lewis, there is nothing to lceep Illinois from having another candidate if Lewis cannot be put over. And if Illinois does have a second candidate, Carter Harrison will be the man. ' Harrison would not be at all hard for the unterrified democrats to take, his friends insist. All the favorite sons from east and west have their second place boost ers buy. Another boom heard of tonight was for Homer S. Cum mings of Connecticut, chairman of the national committee, whose key note speech still rings in the ears of the delegates. Baby Nearly Wrecked Home; Girl Mother Is Forced to Give It Up Sacramento, Cal., July 5. Three-months-old Baby Floris, whose mother is Mrs. George Floris, and who has been "foot balled" around for some weeks, finally has found a home. The mother of the little tot deeded the little girl to Mrs. T. Hildebrand, but later recovered it, because she feared the foster-mother was not giv ing the infant the proper care. A new mother has been found for Floris. Now it is Mrs. Cecil Clyds Erp of this city. The girl-mother has defended her act in offering the baby for adoption by declaring her mother had threat ened to expel her from the house if she insisted upon keeping the child which was born out of wedlockThe grandmother of Floris complained that it cried at night and kept her awake. The little mother said the last but not the least straw was when her husband threatened to leave her if the child was not given away. The adoption proceedings were conducted in the superior court here. Goldfish and Crabs, But Not Children Washington, July 5.

Cleveland re gained the American league leader ship from New York S-'iiday by ad ministering Detroit's seventh straight defeat, while the Yankees dropped their first game in 10 to W ashington. Ihc heavy slugging of the two leaders is carrying them along at a fast pace, but the Indian club lacks the smooth pitching that the Yankees possess. Either Cove leskie or Bagby, the Cleveland star twirlers, have been called upon in every contest for a week. The Cincinnati world's champions made a slight gain over Brooklyn for the National League leadership. Although the Reds are batting light ly, their pitchers held their oppon ents to an average of about two and a half runs again last week. Brook lyn and Chicago are both enjoying good pitchihg again. The Superb nave oeen patting ugntiy, Dut toaay pounded out 31 hits for 18 runs in a double-header with Philadelphia. The 'Cubs, however, lost a battle for third place today at St. Louis, when four pitchers were unable to check the Cardinals. The Boston. Nationals continued their winning play of the previous week by timely batting. Philadel phia lacks scoring power. The Pitts burgh twirlers are handicapped by light hitting.

Close scores marked the Boston and Washington contests. Johnson of the Senators is in especially good form and pitched a three-hit and a no-hit, no run game last week. St. Louis is displaying see-saw form. Detroit and Philadelphia are fallinir in the ruck. Oil-Burning Still Is Latest Moonshiner ' Concealment Dodge Gadsden, Ala., July S.

They produce no smoke or odors by which revenue agents can detect them. These stills can also be con cealed in tunnels without smoking out the "shiners."
