LOWDEN SECOND CHOICE 3tfost of Return Received From Precincts in State and Miss ing HaTe Few Votes. (Continued From Fint Page.) paign committee, telegraphed from Chicago today that Wood would have at least eisht of the 10 delegates from that state. It was quite generally De lieved that Senator Johnson won on March 16, because of his having been supported by the Townley organiza tion. The final result from lorin Dakota was delayed because of the blizzard which made it impossible to Set the returns from the various sec tions of'the state. The telegram from the Chicago headquarters follows: "Colonel Proctor today lays claim to the tea delegates from North Da kota. Not only does he claim them for Wood, but he produces figures show ing that the regular republican dele gation of the state defeated the John eon slate by a majority of 8112 votes, with five districts missing. Eight of the ten members of the reg ular republican delegation are sup porting Wood." It seems that the two factions of the regular republican party in North Dakota had conventions, one on Feb ruary 17 and the other on February 27. Both factions selected ten dele gates. Later the conventions united and agreed to put only one ticket in the field. Ten delegates, eight of whom are Wood men and the other two non-committal, were selected to oppose the Johnson slate and the Wood ticket won in the primary. The victory in North Dakota gives the Wood men at least 68 instructed or pledged delegates, this total in cludes ten from Minnesota, positively instructed for Wood, but does not in clude 14 more from that f-tate un ir.structed, but practically certain to he for Wood, because of his winning in every county of the state. The list is as follows: Arizona, 6: Minne sota, 10; New Hampshire, 8; North Dakota. 10; Oklahoma. 2; South Da kota, 10; Tennessee, 20; Philippines, 2. Total, 68. Commenting on the progress, of the Wood campaign. Colonel Proctor, in Chicago said today: "ay the end oi the present week. General Wood will enow well over 100 delegates elected for him either under instructions or by affirmative declaration of the dele gates themselves. Despite the com bination of all the other candidates against him. General Wood has been aided in the past few days by assaults of Democratic newspapers, which speak for the administration and General Wood continues to gain sup porters and makes steady progress to ward the nomination. New England, the Northwest and South have thus far contributed almost equally to his string of delegates, and with ap proaching primaries in the middle west the genuine national character of his candidacy will be manifest. The old and familiar box of tricks has been opened by General Wood's opponents and the old familiar shrieks of agony which the defeated always uses are filling the air. It is a little early for some of these devices to be used, but they show conclusively that General Wood's opponents realize that the Jig is up." Reports from Maine today indicated that the state convention at Bangor today will name 12 uninstructed dele gates, following which a resolution indorsing General Wood would be of fered and probably adopted unanim ously according to the Wood man agers tonight. K. C. Dohcny. head of the Mexican Petroleum company, whoe name was listed by the leading Hoover organ as a contributor to the Wood campaign fund, issued a statement in Los An geles today denying that he had ever contributed one cent for the promo tion of General Wood's political in terests. General Wood is scheduled to speak tomorrow noon at Flint. Mich., and tomorrow night in Saginaw. Friday noon he speaks at Pontiac and Friday evening in Bay City. Saturday noon he speaks at Alma and at night at Muskegon. He will return to Chicago Sunday and resume campaigning in Michigan on Monday-. The Michigan primaries will take place April 5. Captain John F. Lucey, temporary chairman of the Hoover National Republican club, today announced that a national conference of Hoover supporters from all over the country will take place in Chicago within the next ten days. The conference, called at the instance of loeal Hoover clubs wishing to co-ordinate their active ties for Herbert Hoover as the re publican presidential nominee, would be asked to name a permanent na tional committee, a permanent na tional chairman and to outline poll cies and future work for a republican Hoover campaign if the conference decides such action is desirable. grand series of tone pictures por traying Jife and death.
