Baltimore. Md. June 29. Notwith
standing that the climax of the big
Democrats drama being staged here
was due for presentation this after
noon, sizzling heat, with humidity that,
would have done credit to a tropic
limgle, proved too much for the spec
tators, and when Chairman James'
ftavel fell at. 1:00 pm the galleries
ere scarcely one-third full. Not a
breath of air was stirring In the mam

flown on the steel roof.

themselves Inside, and It was not un

a mixup In the ticket arrangements,
due to the convention running over
into night sessions, there was no con
fusion, and the doors were practically
thrown opon to the relatively small
number who cared to trust themselves
Inside. Double forces of doctors and
nurses were on hand armed to handle
the crowds and bent pros) rations
which seemed inevitable.
A Rent Hot Time.
It was decidedly a negligee crowd,
coats and vesU were as scarce as at a
Hottentot dfnner party. Collars and
ties began to go early, even the offi
cials on the speaker's stand stripping
for action during the early Btages ol
the proceedings. Thousands of fans
were pressed Into service. As soon as
the convention was called to order the
roll call on the 1.1th ballot was started
No choice was expected, however, as
the '13th hodoo" loomed too large for
the superstition of the delegates.
Prior to the vote the rumor crop
thrived as at no previous time dining
the convention. Kern, Bryan, Gaynor
and all the other dark horses were
represented by prophets who were cer
tain each was to be taken from his
stall during the afternoon. Clark sup
porters professed entire confidence in
the ability of tholr fnvorlte to win ul
timately, no matter how grilling the
contest. Their obvious nervousness,
however, belled their expressions f
confidence. In a similar fashion the
Wilson followers shouted noisily with
Just a suggestion that they were en
deavoring to keep up courage.
Clark Huh Majority.
There was no question but the ma
jority posSesed by Clnrk was a serious
stumbling block, the magic of which
thev fiillv appreciated. They Insisted,
however, that Clark had shown no ad
ditional strength of consequence since
the New York delegation slid In his di
rection, and they Insisted that the ef
fect of aTmmany attempting to turn
the tide In favor of the Mlsourlan
would, in the long run, prove an ex
pensive benefit.

At the meeting of the city council
Friday night the resolution intro
duced by Alderman Rlgdon, chairman
of the special water committee of the
city council, was adopted by a vote of
6 to 6. Considerable discussion was
bad over the proposition, being even
ly divided between Its supporters and
those opposing It. After the resolu
tion had been read by the recorder
and a motion made and seconded for
Its adoption, Alderman Jones Intro
duced a substitute resolution, which.
In substance, repudiated the work of
the committee, and, If adopted, would
have stopped all proceedings In the
direction of a purchase of the water
plant. The substitute resolution failed
to pass by a vote of 6 to S. The reso
lution which was passed, provides for
immediate action looking to the pur
chase of the plant and authorizes the
special water committee to enter into a
contract with Engineer Thompson, or
some of his duly qualified assltants,
for an examination of the plant ln
connection with that of a representa
tive selected by the water company.
and a third member selected by the

Negotiations will now be begun to

TIIE PACIFIC
VEIITIUITOO
AND HEATER BUILT BY THE AN
DERSON STEEL FURNACE AND
BOILER COMPANY A PRACTICAL
INVENTION THAT PROMISES TO
DISPLACE EASTERN HEATERS.
There is a demand for hundreds of
practical school room heaters In Ore
gon, and this has been met by the
Anderson Steel Furnace & Roller
Works, of this city, who are turning
out a heater especially constructed to
heat and ventilate school rooms. The
strong points In favor of this heater
are simplicity of construction, the
foul air being taken off the floors and
expelled directly frm the building.
The ventlatlng feature of this heater
Is the strong point In favor of Its
adoption, as It actually ventilates the
room, The concern putting out this
heater Is one of the strongest manu
facturing firms of the state, locatf.d
at Salem. The Pacific heater and ven
tilator will be on exhibition as part if
the Marlon County Manufacturers' Ex
position at tho Armory during the
Cherry Fair at Salem, July 11, 12, 13.

Baltimore, Juno 29. When Nebras
ka was reached Bryan climbed upou
his chair and addressing Congress
nun Sulzer, who had been substitut
ed in the chair for James, demanded
the right to explain bis vole.
The uproar was terrltlc The
Clark men were trying to Bhout Bry
r.n down while the galleries started
a whooping Bryan demonstration.
The Nebraskan held his position, and
managed In the uproar to say that:
"As long as New York was for Clark
bis vote would have to lie withheld
from him." , w'
Above the din of the clamor Sena
tor tllone, Clark's chief manager, fin
ally managed to make himself heard
and gained recognition from Sulzer.
"1 bis convention should listen to
what the distinguished gentleman
from Nebraska baa to say," be shout
ed. "I want to ask unanimous con
sent that the distinguished delegate
from Nebraska be heard."
Congressman Fitzgerald, of Brook
lyn, Murphy's right hand parliamen
tarian, rushed hurriedly to the aid of
Sulzer.
Htone finally got his request before
tho convention nnd Sulzer declared
that the unanimous consent was
granted despite the wild uproar of
noes. Bryan took the platform
amidst a wild cheering and jeering
demonstration.
" Bryan's flreal Speech.
"Mr. Chairman," he began. "I am
explaining my vote only because my
advice was not followed In my dele
gation. I advised that those of us
who are Instructed for Mr. Clnrk
should continue to vote for him until
justified In- doing otherwise. I did
not t:!!:ve that that, condition had
yet arisen but not all the delegates
agreed with me, I was desirous that
a poll be not required but If a poll
Is demanded, and each man gives s
reason, I am ready to do so, and to
cast my vote and give my reasons.
"I am not alone here. I do not
represent a one-man opinion. Many
delegates look at this question as 1
do and am speaking both for these
and a large number outside of this
hall. I recognize my responsibility.

would arise some time during the
