BALLOTS WITHOUT RESULT (Continued from page 1.) seem to jmsk to Other hands and will it please Thee that they may complete their responsibilities that shall be given unto their hands with sincerity and with conscientious performance if duty. We pray Thee that Thou wilt guide the council of this hour in the selection of a candidate for the prcsi dene of our great country and Thou will give us a mm who fears Coil, who is guided by Hi word and whose heart turns In ,ympathv to the great multitudes who daily toil for their liv ing and for those ;ar to their hearts. "Wll, Thou give use a man who v.'ll guide oor ship of state nut from the icebergs of greed and selfishness Into the high seas of prosperity. May the clouds which have darkened our skies pass away and the muttering thunder of discontent be heard no more forever." I'lie i i diction of democratic suc cess met with approval expressed In an outburst of apvtaute after conclusion of tile prayer. Chairman J.imes at 4: IS announced that the roll call for the presidential nomination would be resumed at once. Several minutes were required to clear the floor and restore order, Alabama was the lirst state called and applause greeted the announce ment from liovernor O'Neal that Alabama easts -I votes for Oscar W. Underwood." No changes from the first ballot marked the call at the outset. Ari zona. Arkansas. California and Color ado cast their solid votes for Speaker Clark, as they had on the lirst ballot. Connecticut again cast its H votes for Oovernor Baldwin, its "favorite on," Wilson enthusiasts in the galleries applauded the lirst vote cast for their candidate, that of Delaware. The banners dropped from the ha' cony during the Wilson demonstration eari) yesterday morning still blazoned forth their tnottos: "We want Wil son." and "Wilston .ill the time, no compromise." Slates continued to follow the first ballot. No changes occurred in the poll as the vote proceeded through the list of states until Massachusetts waB reached. Michigan, whose vote had been dis tributed among four candidates on the Aral ballot isked to be passed when Its name was called.

Another break of one vote from the Clark to the Wilson standard came In the New Hampshire delegation. The speaker received 7 and Wilson 1 on the second ballot, where he hid re ceived 8 on the lirst. The accession to the Wilson strength, while small, was greeted, with a storm of applause from Wilson sympathizers. A break of two delegates from Un derwood came in the New Jersey dele gation. Two given Cndergood on the first ballot went to William Sulzer of New York on the second. In North Carolina Governor Wilson lost i of a vote. The first ballot gave him 16 U- Clark and Wilson gained a vote each in Ohio, while Governor Harmon lost one. The chance of a nomination on the second ballot vanished when the Ohio vote was cast. This brought up the total opposition to Clark above the one-third mirk, making It impossible for ( lark to secure the necessary' two thirds of the convention. Pennsylvania threw one more vote to Governor Wilson and gave one to Bryan, reducing by two the vote given Governor Harmon. The Pennsylvania figures on (he second ballot was: Wilson 72; Bryan 1; Harmon :!. Eight votes were the total Wilson standard amid wild cheers when Ver mont was called. The vote had gone to Governor Baldwin of Connecticut on the lirst ballot. A hall vote was gained by Wilson in Utah; and a half vote by Clark In Virginia, the latter breaking away from the Underwood vote of 14 Vs on the first ballot. Clark gained one more in W'iseln sin. One man who had been absent when the lirst ballot was taken cast his vote with Clark. Two Alaska votes cast for Sulzer on the lirst billot, joined the Wilson strength on trie second call. The Michigan delegation gave two new voles lo t'lark and one to Wil son, taking them from the total given Harmon on the first ballot. Clark gained 214 more in Tennessee: while Harmon lost a half vote and rmierwood lost three. In the Porto Rico delegation Clark gained one that had been cast for I'n dcrwood, thus dividing the delegation with Governor Wilson. A further revision of the Tennessei Vote was made before the final vote was was made before the final vote was counted. Governor Wilson gaining an additional h alf vote by it. A half vote was recorded as "not voting." The result of the second ballot was Clark 44ii'-..; Wilson :S394; Under wood 1111.; Harmon 141; Marshall 31; Baldwin 14; Sulzer 2; Bryan, not voting Compared with the results of th lirst ballot this was a min of t la for Clark: a gain of 1 f :V for Wilson loss of 6', for Underwood; a loss of i for Harmon; a gain of 1 for Bryan: a loss of N for Baldwin. Former Governor Francl?, of Mis souri, had taken the place of Chair man llie James before the second ballot results were announced. "There being no candidate who re ceived two-thirds of the votes," he announced, "the clerk will again call the roll." Second Roll Call. .1. Warren Davis, of New Jersey, iook the place of Secretary Brltton as 'the megaphone man" on tho third roll call. State after state was called without a change from the second ballot, until Maine was reached. Here the two votes that had gone to Under wood on the lirst two ballote went to Wilson dividing the state delegation, Wilson 11 1 Clark I, New Jersey's two "floating votes w hich had been given to Willi mi .Sulzer on the second ballot went back to Underwood on the third roll call.

When Kansas was reached, when t'lark hail received the solid delega tion of "(I In the preceding roll calls the vote was challenged by J. W. Orr i Wilson candidate. B. J. Sheridan, a delegate-at-large read the resolution of the Kansas slate convention under which the del egates were bound to vote for Clark until two-thirds believe he cannot be nominated." "The delegation stands ll for Wil son, nine for Clark, said Mr. Sherl dan, "and under our Instructions I am bound to caBt the 20 votes for t hani Clark." Chairman ollle James ruled that long as two-thirds of the dclegat from Kansas have not decided that Clark has no chance for the nomina lion, "the Kansas vote must be cast for Clark" in its entirely. "Hon you want a poll of your dele gallon .'" he aksed of the Kansas del egates. , "Yes," shouted Iielegate Orr. "The Kansas instruction authorized me oeiegates lo vole lor Wilson as Reconc choice when it became the be lit' two-thirds that Clark could not i. e, HH ,;, ,. The poll sustained Mr. Sheridan that the Kansas deb gales stood: Wil son 11, (lark 9. Chairman James held that the entire vote must go to Clark under the unit rule. "With Clark leading the ballot," he said, "two-thirds don't say that In cannot win. The vote stands 11 for Wilson ..nd 9 for Clark. The chair directs that the Instructions of the .:, mocraey in that state be carried out and the 20 votes of Kansas cast for Clark." The ruling met with opposition from the Wilson forces on the floor and was vigorously approved by the adherents of Speaker Clark. w hen Maryland was called then- Was no response. The state was passed temporarily while the delegation con ferred over Its vote. W llson and Kern each won a vote In Michigan, Underwood and Harmon each losing one. Clark lost one vote to Wilson In New Hampshire on the fifth ballot but gained in New Jersey the two floating votes that had been cast for several different candidates. This gave Clark four votes In New Jersey. In North Carolina Wilson gained half vote from Clark and Underwood two from Harmon. Harmon gained one in Ohio and Clark also gained one. Wilson and Kern each lost vote In Ohio. The Tennessee vote, which had flue tuated widely on preceding roll calls, gave Harmon an Increase of ( votes on the fifth ballot. Clark lost 61, Wll son ii.4 Underwood 1 vote, Harmon getting all of them. Clark gained one vote from Harmon in Porto Rico. The fifth ballot resulted as follows: Clark 44S; Wilson S51; Underwood 1191; Harmon 14U; Marshall 31; Kern 2. The change' from the previous ballot were: Wilson gained 1J; Un derwood gained TJ: Harmon gained 5. The vote of Clark, Marshall and Kern was unchanged. After the announcement of the re sult of the fifth ballot Chairman James recognized a motion to recess until 9:30 o'clock. There was a chorus of disapproval when the motion to adjourn was put ut James declared it carried. A general understanding that a nomination would be made before the adjournment of the session of the democratic national convention filled the galleries long before the hour for the calling of the session. The heat was terrific, and the delegates discarded their coats and wilted collars. The aisles were in great confusion and the police and the sergeants-at- arms tried in vain to clear them. Chairman James called the conven tion to order nt 9:42. Gradually the disorder .subsided and the Itov. leorge Dudley of Washington offered irayer. Chairman James at 9:4S directed the calling of the Toll for the sixth ballot. 'he call proceeded without change or incident t:ntll Kansas was reached. The delegates' and spectators half ex pected s break in Wilson's favor, fol- U wing the roll call today which show d the Kansans 11 for Wilson and 9 for Clark.

Carolina Wilson lost on to IT i cYrwond. Harmon lost one in onio. it went to Bryan, who was thus restored to the roll. It became apparent then that there would be no nomination on the sixth ballot. This was assured when New York did not shift to either of the leading candi dates. Tool essec Vote Shifts. In Tennessee which casts its vote diflerently on each ballot, Wilson gained 4 and Clark 2. All of the six came from the Harmon column .Nebraska corrected her vote, giving Wilson 4, Clark 1. a gain of one for Wilson.

On account of the late spring and the unusual cool weather, which op to tlip present time has prevailed all over the country, the manufacturers are desperate to sell off their surplus stocks.
