5DHE MOUSING 0KEGO3RAjfcJK TqjBnffESDAT, JtJKE 1,"" 190. VOTE 115 BEFORE IHinoisans Still Unable, to Name Governor, LOWDEH'S HOPES RUN HIGH He Expects Good Support From Yates' Hen Today. ANY .CHOICE IS IMPROBABLE Speaker Cannon Creates Great Laugh ter In Asking the Convention Again to Prohibit Smoking Enthusiasm Is Manifest. v SPRINGFIELD, IiL, May 3L At a late .4ujur tonight, there 5b no substantial proa; pect that the Gubernatorial deadlock "will end tomorrow. It Is reported that Lowden "will make another attempt tomorrow to break Into tho Yates forces. It Is. said that ho expects to get 100 Yates votes, 30 from Hamlin, CO Xrom Sherman, and enough scattering votes to swell his total to COO, hoping that this tvIU he sufficient to loosen up tho Deneen delegates in Cook County to nominate IiOwden. The Yates manager admits that at some stage of the ballot ing Kane, "Will and Dekalb Counties may so to Xowden, as they did when a stam pede was attempted two weeks ago, but this would mean only 62 votes, and that Is nearly the limit of the number the Yates people will concede as likely to go to iowden from their camp. There seems small probability that either Hamlin or 6herman will now shift thelr'votes until Jt appears reasonahly cer tain that y so doing they xvUl be able to break the deadlock. All of the candi dates held their forces together today, and It appears tonight that tomorrow's bal lots will show no material change. So far as known, there are no conferences In progress tonight of an Important, nature, Tho convention took three "ballots today, then adjourned until 10 o'clock" tomorrow. Tho first hallot, the S9tb, resulted as follows: Yates 4 4S7 Warner Xowden .356 Sherman Deneen 3S3 Pierce Hamlin- .11$ The sixty-first ballot was as follows: Warner Sherman Pierce .... ..40 ..51 ..23 Yates 484 Xowden 39Stf! Deneen 3S1& Hamlin .116 I There was a manifest feeling of enthu siasm. Governor Yates was cheered as he entered a few minutes before the conven tion was called to ordor, but the entry of the other candidates "was unobserved. Chairman Cannon opened the-'proceedings by having read the rule of tho House of. Representatives, which, among x other things, prohibits smoking "upon tho floor of tho House.1' "Gentlemen," said Mr. Cannon, "you nave adopted that, among other rules. The chair cannot enfar.ee that rule without the co-operation of the delegates, and the chair desires to know what the will of the convention is." Then he put to a vote the Question of enforcing the "No smoking 'rule, "liter ally everywhere in the halh" The affirmative vote was practically unanimous, and the chairman then gave peremptory instructions to the assistant Sergeants-at-Arms and tho police to see that all smoking in the hall was prevented. Delegates who do not cease when request ed to do 60 will be reported to the chair for tho action of tho convention, and por Boas not delegates who persistently vio late the rulo arc to ho ejected from the ball. "How about tho chewing?" inquired a delegate, amid laughter. Chairman Can non, who, while refraining from smoking, has been chewing tobacco pretty freely during the monotonous deadlock, an swered gravely: "Tho resolution Is silent on chewing." (Laughter.) PICK FAIRBANKS TO WIN. Leading Republicans Deem the HItt Vice-Presidential Boom Dead. CHICAGO, May 3L (Special.) Senator Charles W. Fairbanks, of Indiana, is slated for President Roosevelt's running mate, despite the Hitt boom, which seemed to take so well a week or two ago. according to Republican leaders who were in Chicago today. Among them were Senator Spooner and Representative J. W. fBabcock, of Wisconsin; Representative Jesse Overs treet, of Indiana; Colonel Henry Cass on, Sergeant-at-Arms of the House of Representatives, and National Commlteeman R. B. Schneider, of Ne braska. Mr. Overs treet said he was practically certain of Senator Fairbanks' nomination for Vice-President, and declared he would accept it as a party duty. Other visiting politicians expressed the same opinion -with so much force as to indicate that the matter has teen settled by those who will be influential in shaping tho conven tion programme. The declaration of Mr. Overs treet, living as he does in tho same state, and being a close political friend of the Indiana Senator, is especially convincing as to the latter'a attitude. The Hitt boom, ac cording to Washington leaders, has served Its purpose, which was to sidetrack the Cannon Vice-Presidential boom, although Mr. Hitt appears to have acted in good faith, with the idea that he would stand a fine chanco for the. nomination with the Illinois indorsement. Tho full National Committee will meet hero Juno 15, to take up the contests for seats in the convention. There are 15 or 16 contests to be decided, only two of which involve the state delegations. The two state contests come from Wisconsin and Delaware. comprise -the conservative elcasent, fire e tnardins.an anlnsnicted delegation. 5he State Committee today deel&el to combine the nominating and tue jmftaai conventions and .somloate & state UcKet and three Justices of tie Supreme Court at Graad RaOs, Aagast ?. f District caucuses will be field -fepmocrew morning, at which district delegates to the National Convention will ba chosen, subject to the ratification of the State Convention The Campau loilcwhig Is cou- cecmg two tnstners to xne nearsi faction.

May L The Democratic State Convention to elect delegates to the National Convention at St. Louis will con vene here at noon tomorrow. It is cx pected that there will bo a fight to the finish between the so-called conservative and radical wings of the party. While National Committeeman D. J. Campau Is avowedly in favor of Judge Parker, of Xew York, for the Presidential nomina tion, Mr. Campau and his supporters, who FOLK DECLINE THE HONOR. Will Not Serve e Temporary Chair man ef NatUnal Convention. ST. LOUIS, May 2L At a conference to night between Norman E. Mack, of New York, Democratic National committeeman, and ogeph Fpjk, relative to the tet ter's name being considered Jn connection with tho temporary chairmanship of tho National Democratic Committee. Mr. Folk declined to sanction the use of his name. Mr. Mack said that ho had long been an admirer of Mr. Folk. "His sincerity. Ls demonstrated by the position which ho has taken In regard to the (temporary chairmanship of the Democratic National committee," continued Mr. Mack. Xne subcommittee of the National Committee, which met here a few days ago,, consid ered three names for this honor Mr. Folk, John Sharp Williams, of Mississippi, and Mayor David A. Roso, of Milwaukee. 'In our conversation today the matter was mentioned, and Mr. Folk said, he did not wish to be considered In connection with the temporary chairmanship, because his first obligation was to the people of Missouri, and he felt acceptance of the chairmanship might be misinterpreted un der the circumstances. He deprecated all the talk connecting his name with the Presidential nomination." PARKER CAUCUS A STORMY ONE Georgia Democrats Are Unable to Agree on a Programme ATLANTA, Ga., May 2L The Demo cratic State Convention will meet hero to morrow to select two delegates to the National Convention from each of the 11 Congressional districts, four delegates-at-large and to confirm the nominations for state public officers, selected at the Demo cratic primary, April 20. The result of the convention ls much in doubt. Al though no bitterness has developed, there promises to bo a warm contest over tha matter of selecting the delegates-at-largc, and the question of instructions and tha adoption of the unit rule. After continuous wild and stormy scenes of nnabatable disorder, lasting for almost an hour, tho Parker caucus, which met tonight, adjourned without having taken any action. The object of the caucus was to reach an agreement on tho matter of definite instructions for Judge Parker or preferential resolutions favoring his nomi nation.

He ls determined to avoid the friction his predecessors had to con tend with, by reason of misunderstand ings over appointments of employes. Ho also has announced that a limited num ber of assistant doorkeepers are the only attaches who will recelvo pay for their services. Only such persons as are recommended by members of tho Na tional Committee will bo appointed to any position in connection with the con vention. Mr. Stone has mailed a letter to the committeemen, fully explaining his plans and stating specifically that the assist ant sergcants-at-arms and attendants of every rank must accept vlth tha un derstanding that they are not to receive compensation, traveling: expenses, or ho tel bills. The long-used standards will bo done away with. Placards carrying the name of. each stato will be tacked to the back of the seats. Hard Fight on Hearst Resolutions.
