FAVORITE AND FIELD -McADOO AND TWELVE OTHER ASPIRANTS FOR PRESIDENT IN NOMINATION AT DEMOCRATIC CONVENTION,
a conference with Senator Glass of the
resolutions committee and It was fi
nally announced that there was little
prospect of the committee being ready
to make Its report befori morning'.
Amid "yells of disappointment from
a record-breaking crowd which called
for "Bryan, Bryan. Bryan," and "we
want to hear Bryan," the convention
adjourned until this morning.
Prospects of a convention floor fight
on, the league of nations diminished
when it became known that Some
of the administration supporters were
willing to accept without further op
position the reservations proviso
written into the league plank by the
resolutions committee. r
This proviso proposed by Senator
Walsh of Massachusetts and Indorsed
by the committee, declares the party
doco not oppose any reservations
which may be deemed necessary
to clarify the nation's obliga
tions to its associates In the
league. It follows in the plank,
as now framed, a declaration that
ratification Is favored without reser.
vatlons Impairing the essental Integ
rity of the covenant.
Bryan Attitude Not Known.
None of the administration spokes
men on the ground would make a
public statement of their views, but
It was learned they were inclined to
regard the modified language of the
plank as acceptable. Chairman Cum
niings of the national committee, said
that so far as he knew no word had
been received on the subject from
President Wilson and that he be
lieved the president was willing to
leave It in the hands of his friends
here.
Whether W. J. Bryan would be sat
isfied to let the committee's declsjn
stand without a floor fight was net
revealed. He has advocated a declara
tion for immediate ratification with
compromise reservatons, but In the
committee last night he voted for the
Walsh amendment, with the explana
tion that while it did not entirely
cover his views. It would be an im
provement on the sub-committee
draft.
A league of nations plank was
adopted by the democratic platform
committee early yesterday. A long,
bitter fight so delayed the platform
workers that the committee recessed
Until 10 o'clock.
The suffrage plank, as approved by
the platform committee, Is understood
to fellow the lines of that tramed in
the sub-committee, calling on the
democratic governors and legislatures
tf Tennessee, North Carolina and
Florida to complete ratification of the
suffrage amendment in time to permit
the women to vote next November.
The committee adopted the labor
and several other minor planks.
As submitted to the committee, the
administration treaty plank, accord
ing to authoritative statements, pro
vided: "We recommend ratification of the
treaty of Versailles and the league
of nations covenant without reserva
tions which would impair its essen
tial integrity."
The words added by Senator
Walsh's amendment were:
"But we do not oppose reservations
which make more clear or specific
our obligations to the associated na
tions." The substitute planks ef Mr. Bryan
and Senators Walsh of Montana and
Pomerene of Ohio, went down to de
feat, it was said, with but from 12
to 13 votes each.
Minority Iteport Likely.
Chairman Carter Glass and other
members refused to give out any in
formation concerning any action by
the committee, but It was indicated
that, dissatisfied With the treaty
plank approved, a minority report
lor appeal to the convention was
under consideration.
The labor plank adopted declared
against compulsory arb'tration, but
deplored strikes and lockouts and
advocated that some peaceable way
be found to settle industrial disputes.
The committee also put Its approval
on a declaration for legislation which
would permit collective bargaining
by farmers.
As reported by the subcommittee,
the league of nations plank followed
closely that adopted by the Virginia
democrats. Senator Walsh of Mon
tana, submitted a minority report and
led the fight against the Virginia
proposal, which had the backing of
President Wilson.
Compromise Held Xeceaanry.
In the debate, which loqsed a flood
of bitter feeling:. Senator Walsh was
fceconded by Mr. Bryan, Senator Walsh
of Mussachusetts and Senator Pomer
ene of Ohio, while the battle for the
administration waa led by Senator
Ulass of Virginia, the committee
chairman. Senator Walsh's minority
report provided for a plank pledging
the nominee of the convention and
democratic senators to make such
concessions as might be necessary to
obtain ratification of the treaty. All
of those who supported it told the
committee bluntly that hope of ratifi
cation without modification might as
well be,abandoned and that the wise
course was t'.iat of a compromise.
Air. Bryan and several others
wanted modifications of th wnrrtinc-
f the Walsh plank and as the dis
cussion raged throughftut the night
" nopes or members that the ques
tion could be kept off the convention
Hoot diminshed.
Irish Principle. Reiterated.
On the prohibition Issue the sub
committee made no recommendation
mid a big grist of proposed wet and
dry proposals were offered, with Mr.
Uryan leading the drya in a deter
mined crusade o keep the party from
making a wet declaration or remain
ing silent on the prohibition issue.
The Irish plank submitted by the
Bub-commtttee reiterated ln general
terms President Wilson s principle of
self-determination. expressed sym
pathy for the aspirations of the Irish
people and suggested that the Irish
problem could legitimately be brought
later before the league of nations.
That Is unsatisfactory to some of the
committee members who are making
a fight for a plank pledging the party
to recognise the Irish republic.
In his fight against the adminis
tration's league of nations plank, Sen
Rtor Walsh declared that although
he had been for the treaty without
reservations, a year ot effort had
demonstrated that auch a ratifica
tion was Impossible. In the coming
campaign, he asserted, the democrats
could not hope to gain enough sen
ators to make up the necessary two
thirds and If the administration dec

possibly could hope to do to carry
it out.
Bryan Vrgea Compromise.
Mr. Bryan argued that the party
should not go on record opposing
reservations to which a majority of
the senators had agreed but should
take the issue out of politics by de
claring for an immediate Ratification
compromise.
Marshall Is Critic.
In the treaty debate, Vice-President
Marshall was reported to have crit
icized the administration plank be
cause it gave no information to the
public regarding what reservations
would fall within the class described
as not impairing the covenant's "es
sential integrity." Chairman Glass,
Senator McKellar of Tennessee, and
other administration chieftains stren
uously opposed the Walsh amendment.
The adminstration. side charged it
would play into'the hands of the re
publicans, be regarded- as a weaken
ing of the democratic position, and be
support for the position of republican
senators led by Senator Lodge.
Senator McKellar was declared to
have denounced the W-alsh amend
ment as "the doctrine of hell." An
other administration member said it
would appear as if the democrats
were "coming to terms" with the re
publicans. Still another opponent of
Senator Walsh's amendment said that
Its defeat was tantamount to de
feating the Lodge reservations and
that if the committee adopted the
WalBh addition it "ought to put Sen
ator Lodge in nomination" here.
'Article Ten's Death Seen.
Senator Pomerene supported the
Walsh amendment.
Although Senator Walsh is said to
have conceded that artiole 10 of the
league covenant would be destroyed
by the Lodge reservations, he and
Senator Pomerene toid the committee
that most, if not allt other Important
features of the league plan still
Would remain.
An assertion by Senator Walt:h that
without his amendment the treaty
would be lost, and that with it the
treaty's ratification would be assured
was met by a statement by former
Governor McComle of West Virginia
that he was opposed to action for
mere expediency.
'.'God help the demooratlo party,"
Governor McCorkle exclaimed. "TTou
Will lose the respect of the American
people."
During the debate Senator Glass
and Mr. Bryan clashed over M-. Bry
an's published criticism of the sub
committee as a "secret body. When
Senator Gliss cbjected to !t Mr. Bryan
replied that he would usj it again or
UJ- other word he should choose.
Armenian Plank Rejected.
The sub-committee's plank on Ar
menia also was rejected by the full
committee. The plank is understood
to have declared that the United States
should consider it a duty to see that
complete independence and order was
guaranteed to the new Armenian re
public.
The committee adopted, however, by
an overwhelming vote, a substitute
plank offered by Senator Beckham of
Kentucky, expressing sympathy for
the Armenian people and promising
assistance Inmfar as it shall be con
sidered possible and proper. The
Beckham substitute received 40 votes
with about a dozen reported in the
negative.
Ijanghome Shifts Vote.
SAN FRANCISCO. Cal., July 1.
(Special.) Maurice A. Langhome,
Washington's member of the com
mittee on resolutions, voted against
the administration today on the league
of nations platform plank. On the
plank relating to the self-determination
of Ireland he voted with the administration.

NEW BILLS AT THE THEATERS
Heilig.
BT LEONE CASS BAER.
M13" NELLT OP NORLEANS
brings Mrs. Fiske back to the
stage in the first good play she
has brought us since "Mrs. Bump-Btead-Leigh"
of some ten seasons ago.
The skill with which she ' pictures
Mis' Nelly and the charming picture
she made In the dress ot her 1866
romance helped her to a Very real
triumph last night. A loyal and
numerous following Is Mrs. Fiske's,
and it bade her welcome and gave her
an ovation last night.
The play she brings is from the
play shop of Laurence Eyre, who has
an understanding of the values of
sentiment In comedy-dramas. One
might even eay he has an apprecia
tion of the values of sentimental
episodes. It is the delightful aecount-
ng of a southern belle of other days.
who has lived for 20 years In Paris
to heal a heartache caused by a shat
tered romance begun and ended in
the garden of her N'Orleans home.
She returns to" Ker old home to un
tangle the love affairs of her youth
ful niece who haa become affianced
to the youthful eon of a proud and
distinguished Creole who had jilted
Mis' Nelly 20 summers ago. He had
suspected her of a serious flirtation
and the headstrong Mis' Nelly had re
fused to explain and so had been
jilted almost at the altar. When
the father refuses to allow hie son
to wed Mis' "Nelly's niece. Mis' Nelly
resolves to make her ex-sultor hum
ble himself at her feet, and so con
cocts a fine conspiracy which Is es
sentially the plot of the play: To
unfold it in this accounting would
epoil it for others yet to see how the
clever and resourceful Mis', Nelly of
N'Orleans achieves the happiness of
the two young folk and her own
subtle revenge as well. The appeal
of the play is not made solely in the
fine acting of the star, as Is so often
the case, but the excellent support
given Mrs. Flske'-and the wealth of
scenic beauty give added force and
beauty.
A comedy of moonshine and mad
ness and make-believe, enacted In
a lovely old garden, where roses and
honeysuckle away In the soft winds
and a high stone wall shuts In its
beauty from the narrow St. Charles
street it faces. Mardi Gras festival
spirit is abroad and fantastically
garbed merry makers . dance la
through the old gate and occasional
melodies, hauntingly sweet, steal into
the romantic spot.
The role Mrs. Fiske plays Is one
splendidly, attuned to her especial
gift for comedy- Seemingly she de
lights and revels In playing the part.
She is an adept at bantering comedy
and in abrupt little flashes of satire.
As Mis" Nelly she brings into play
a charmingly feminine and wholly
refreshing irresponsibility that is
thoroughly delightful.
Her supporting cast is splendid.
Hamilton Revelle is the dashing and
impetuous creole whose lack of faith
in Mis' Nelly had put them asunder
20 years before the story opens. He
invests the character with charm and
dignity through which gleams an
ardor and boyishness not lessened
by years. His broken English and
occasional French add to his perfect
characterization. Victor Benoit is the
younger lover, youthfully impulsive
and unreasoning, and Mr. Benoit
plays him in that manner. Dorothy
Day is prettily impulsive as the niece
and impulsively pretty. Joseph Greene
gives a forceful and dominant study
as a priest, and Gertrude Chase -a
colorful and vivid picture of a young
quadroon drawn into Mis' Nelly's con
spiracy. Flavia Olmstead, Eva Ben
ton and Ezra Walck as southern
darkles ran true to form as charac
terizations. Mrs. Fiske's engagement ends
Saturday night. There will be a
Saturday matinee.

inga make up the plot of the act, but
It la Frank's assumption of nervous
ness and his cavortings and carrying
on that keeps everyone laughing. As
a climax he sings in a rich baritone
voice.
Bot Schafer Is a clever comedian.
He is the central figure around which
a sextette of youthful maids and one
pretty maid, Frances Morton, revolve
in dance and song. This act would
have made a big hit during Shrine
week because its scenic equipment is
an American desert cafe, with orl
ental trappings and two staid camels
on the panels. The girls foilow the
oriental idea in costumes and one of
the songs is a gay melody eet to
clever words. Schafer does an imita
tion of Bert Williams in "You can
not make your shimmy shake on tea'
and has a lot of clever persiflage fall
to his conversational lot. Miss Mor
ton wears smart frocks.
A diminutive comedian Is Jimmy
Rosen, who sponsors a keen little
dramatic episode called "Call Me
Papa." He is the active participant
In the fun. A large, picturesque girl
plays, opposite him as a discontented
wife. The lines are humorous, but it
is -the diminutive Jimmy's line of
chatter and pantomime that con
vulses the audience.
Henry J. Kelly sings in a pleasing
high tenor and tells clever stories
A story of a letter from Callahan to
the mother of a dead soldier pal is a
gem.
