MONDAT, .ILLY 1.19 u. ‘REJECTING CLARK DENIES RULE OF PEOPLE’-HEARST BALTIMORE, July 1. The Clark position was today slated with di rectness and with much of expres sion that shows the real sentiment of lhe Clark leaders by William Randolph Hearst, who has been a prominent figure in the Clark cam paign. After reviewing lhe cam paigns of the past in which Mr. Bryan figured, Mr. Hearst said In a formal statement: ”1 came tn this convent lon rM support progressive principles and a progressive candidate, and to oppose the political bosses and the privileged Interests as I have al ways done and always will do I came here to support the Demo cratic candidate, even though It was William J. Bryan, although I and every other friend of Mr. Bry an have come to know that he is never grateful for a service nor loyal to a friend "The spirit which I felt seemed Io me to be shared by nearly every other Democrat that I met at this other man here an opportunity to be heard," said Belt. The confusion was so groat that he could hardly make himself heard Delegates Threatened By Sergeant-at Arms "The state of K tnsas has ordered the following resolution." "We have heard it." yelled the dele gates. He read it again," said the speaker, and he did. leaving out a portion. Read the rest of it," roared the Wil son side of the convention. ■I will," said Mr. Bell. "They instructed the delegates that they must vote for Clark until four teen delegates agreed that he had no chance." "No, no.” came a chorus led by K. J. Justice, of North Carolina The chair has ruled you out of or der. "I'll put you out of the convention if you don't get In order," cried the sergeant-at -arms. "The resolution." repeated Mr Bell, "provides that fourteen men must vote for Wilson." "(live Wilson the vote." .ailed a delegate. Don't take any more from him." Mr Justice, of North Carolina, was again out of his chair The sergeant ■ at-arms got a glimpse of his form and shouted: "The chair directs you bo put i>tt' unless you t ike your seat." "What's that'"' asked the delegate The delegates laughed. Mr. Justice held his hand to his ear and stood in the most bland and child like fashion watting to hear what was said, A policeman went over and had him sit down Mi BeP -<;il<l thirteen was not two-thirds of twenty. A Mitchell Palmer, of Pennsylvania, followed 8011. He said that ho desired to say upon a point of order that when the delegates were called 19 only were present, and while the state had 20 votes as a whole, with one absent, the IP. made two-thirds of the delegation then on the floor Two-thirds of 'he members were Dysentery is always serious and oft en a dangerous disease, but it can be cured. chamberlain's Colic, Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy has cured it even when malignant and cpivlomi.

He referred to the antagonisms aroused at the Chicago convention and charged that the Democratic convention had aroused even more .bitterness and added: "But into this convention has come a candidate with the greatest number of delegates elected by the direct primaries, which expressed the people's will. If this convention is a progressive convention and if the watchword of the progressives is let the people rule.’ how can this convention afford to reject this candidate and deny the right of the people to rule?" Mr. Hearst then asks how the convention can reject a candidate who for eight consecutive ballots polled the majority vote of the body. ;If the Democrats," he continued, fail to nominate Champ Clark they present, he added, and could pass any resolution requiring two-thirds vote. Hence, he argued, that 13 was two thirds of the present delegation and that the delegation had a right to change Its vote. J. W. Orr, of Atchison. Kans., said that a meeting of the Kansas delega tion was held yesterday and that they had decided by twd-thlrds vote to change from Clark to Wilson, and that they had agreed on subsequent matters to lot a majority rule. He contended that after a delegation had gone Wil son by two thirds vote yesterday there was no power that could make It go back to i 'lark. Chair Upholds Kansas for Wilson. "The chair is ready to rule." said < 'hairmatt James He reviewed the question under de bate and ruled that Kansas' delegation could change ils vote by two-thirds of the delegates voting, and was not re quired to have two-thirds of the state's total allowed vote "The point of order Is overruled and the 20 votes of Kansas are directed to he cast for Wilson." added. There was a cheer and it was repeat ed when the clerk called, "The state of Kansas Wilson 20." The white dove of peace that came opt earljT in the session made a flying • xi'erilttßn about the bill. It alighted neat' the band stand wherefrom the music tied. J R. Riggs, a delegate from Sulli van. Ind., said today during lhe prog ress of the vote: “Senator Kern is not yet ready to have the delegation vote for him." The emphasis on the "yet" attracted much attention. 7 ICI 0 M A P The Greatest Motion Picture Ever Produced 1 T l_f> l\ COST ... $25,000.00 -- - COST Tin most stupendous and magnitieent motion picture ever mad' 1 absolutely staggering the imagination in its scope and orig inalit.v The wonder of the twentieth century in picture production.

It would seem as if it had been Mr. Bryan's deliberate intention to destroy fa vorable prospects of the Demo cratic party and to prevent the victory for progressive principles w hich seemed certain. "To accomplish this. Mr. Bryan has stopped at nothing. He has not hesitated even to make unwarrant ed attacks upon the integrity of t'harnp Clark, a man who has been his devoted friend for eighteen years.” Mr. Hearst then said that Mr. Bryan himself accepted boss sup port in his campaigns, charged him with being "an insolent boss" and a man who fails to respect presi dential primaries. "If he is to be the leader of the Democratic party." he added, "there soon will be no Democratic party to follow." Governor Foss Confers With Bryan BALTIMORE, July 1. William .1 Bry an and Governor Foss, of Massachusetts, held a conference in the Bryan quarters at the Belvedere hotel this morning. Delegates afterwards declared that Bryan's intention was to switch to Foss forth? nomination if upon the first bal lot today it was obvious that Wilsofi could not he nominated. A report gained general circulation about the convention hall and the s hotels that the Massachu setts executive had offered himself as a compromise candidate. Governor Foss explained later that he had called to pay his respects tn Mrs. Bryan and the nature of his conference with Mr. Bryan had become a subject of interest. Howell Attack,s Peerless One dark Howell, national committee man from Georgia and editor of The Constitution, is back in Atlanta from tlte Baltimore convention for a day, with the prediction that Champ ('lark. I'nderwood or a dark horse will win the Democratic presidential nomination. "The chances are in the order named." said Mr. Howell. "I believe that Wilson and Bryan are eliminated: that the fight Bryan has been probably making foe his own nomination has signally failed. Wilson will go down with him. "After Clark, comes I’mlerwood as the big probability.

Denounces Bryan, "in it the effort of Bryan to dictate his opinions to the Democracy of the country again and bring about his own nomination stands out as predominant. Bryan has posed for years as the coun try's foremost exponent of primaries. Now, instructed by the very primary he himself pretended to espouse, he has aeen the. first man to desert his instruc tions. His attack upon Champ Clark was one of the most vicious, unjustified and unwarranted in the history of the party. His elimination is the most sig nificant feature of the Baltimore con vention thus far. and I believe that it means also the elimination of presiden tial primaries In the party hereafter, unless those primaries are made bind ing." Mr. Howell is back from Baltimore because of a pressing business engage ment in Atlanta and because the na tional committee, of which he Is a member, has finished its work and has adjourned. But he is returning today and he will be present at the finish. “Bryan has charged that Clark is In connivance with the Ryan-Belmont crowd, and is not a progressive. To my mind. Clark is one of the best pro gressives in this country today. If Clark is not a progressive, there is no progressive, and he isn't in any deal with anybody. “Everybody who has read a single paper knows what Bryan is trying to do—that he is interested in the welfare of Democracy no' half so much as he is interested In his new attempt to bring about a stampede again that will nomi nate Bryan. He has been the trouble maker of the whole convention. When ever there has come a semblance of peace it has been Bryan who jumped into the ring and started a fight again. He has been beaten, and I think he has been decisively beaten. I look for a nomination within 48 hours, and I look t 0 see Clark, Underwood or a dark horst win the convention’s vote."

Immorality Stories All Lies, He Cries. if there were ever the traces of a hard life and dissipation in the face of Grace, they have completely disap peared. "Those stories of immorality .that they have told about me are all lies." he said, vehemently. "They are more of the lies that the woman has .-fabri cated to win sympathy for herself. I did not drink to excess. 1 did -smoke cigarettes, but I was not a fiend. It's another lie that I was shot at .the end of a carousal.
