Felder, according to all indica tions today, will enter the race for the governorship, as the Hoke Smith candidate against John M. Slaton. Once more the state will see the Smith and Brown factions arrayed in battle. The question of financial support alone, it is understood,, keeps the attorney general from making a definite ’announce ment. He was to a: live from .Macon today and to announce at once —if lie has the looked-f<>r promises of financial lj;< < kina. He is said to have received definite assurances that Senator Smith will contribute substantially to the campaign fund, but will take no ac tive part in the campaign. .Mr. Heid es will hold a conference with certain political friends and then make a for mal announcement. Has Been Eager To Got in Fight. The attorney general has been eager fc, some time to lead the Hoke Smith forces as a gubernatorial candidate. Tin annouma me in from Baltimore in Tim Georgian this week that Congress man Hardwick had some aspirations in that line and probably would declare himself in the tight as soon as he re turned home quickened the attorney general's ardor. A number of confabs wc re held, and today it was generally believed that Eelder, and not Hard wick, would lead the anti-Brown hosts against Slaton. Erlends of the attorney general will hold .a meeting in Macon this afternoon to rieim mine if a sufficient campaign fund can be raised for him to enter tin gubernatorial sweepstakes. .Mr. E‘.|e|. r was in Macon for several days consulting with leading supporters. .Just where Joe* Hill Hull, of Bibb, will come in as a result, of these new de ca lopnients is a problem. It 1, is been persistently rumored for some time th il Hall 'c ould not remain in the race. 1 ’ - KTT¥ 3,1 I ISIII slx 1I a I!? l >B l H l IB i po P t T r Atlanta — < ~Y > "*V :> "v* - ~'y > Bailey, rf...A A k Hemphill, cf.. >¥ j¥ ~y> “<¥ ~¥~ Y ¥ Callahan, If. . ¥*>“ \Y~ yX - ~ < y> -<j> -yX~ y~' YY" Alperman, 2b y> -< C>--<fX~-<C>~ "y-^~<S>-yz^-O'"~Yy yX~ McElveen, 3b. ¥y yX~~y^"y^ - ~yX~ ~yX~ ~yX~ Yy- yz* ~yX" Agler, lb -<>--<> —<_>-XZ>-¥>-<S--<S--<X>--<S--<S--<_> —<S- —I —¥ —¥-■ -¥— -¥- -¥ —¥ —¥- -¥ —¥ —¥ —¥ —¥ — Harbison, ss. . <y>- -<y>- y> xX* “yX" ¥¥ "Y" xX~ “CX" -< CX —<¥ -<X' Graham, c.... ¥X“ ¥X" -<Y“ "¥X" "\/ >i yX“ "yX" v" -yX" >¥ "yX" *yX“ Dessau, p. ... f -yX“ “yX- y> “yX - “yX" -yX" “CX" ~yX" “yX - "“y~ “yX >X“ Entered according Vo Act of Congreet, in the year WT7, Vy A- Q.

Chair- - man James added to this prediction his conclusion that conven tion would complete its labors hv 9 o’clock tonight. Abrogation of the two-thirds rule was suggested by Mr. James as the probable means of over coming the deadlock. He said he felt he had the power, and that this power might he exercised in order to bring about the nomina tion of the candidate having a majority of the votes. ('hairman Jones did not say he would abrogate the rule, but that he had the power to do so at any time that a ma jority is prejared to sustain him. He asserts that If he wanted to "ride ropgh shod,” he could at any time entertain a motion to abrogate the two-thirds rul£ and insist that it is proper to se lect the nominee by a bare majority. Champ Clark had such a majority on the last ballot cast early today. He predicted tha.t the vice presidential nominee would be selected in thirty minutes and that the platform would be adopted without contest after the president ial nomination.

Leaders Active; “Something Doing.” The dawn, dull and gray, was flirting with a new day of action at 3:05 o’clock this morning when the Demo cratic national convention dropped th# curtain of the most sensational ses sion ever seen In a great national gath ering, with no one of the candidates be fore the convention w’lthin sight of the presidential nomination. It was agreed that the combat should be resumed at 1 o’clock this afternoon, and after a brief period of sleep the leaders on all sides were again at the hand-to-hand struggle, preparatory to the renewal of hostilities when the gavel dropped In the afternoon. The early morning encounter was the story of a stampede that failed the nar rative of a running, beautifully man aged attack and defense. It brought Champ Clark to the possession on one ballot of a majority of the convention, but It failed of its purpose—the shak ing loose of the bulldog hold that th« Wilson men had on their nest egg strength. To keep the record straight and hav« a homing point for mental calculation one must hark back a couple of hourt to pick up the essential fact that when the sixth ballot was taken at 9:4M o’clock last night the first of the nighl
