There were all night conferences
among the leaders at which Senator
Harding, of Ohio, was nt Hie head of
:he dark horse group.
All ii it'"! long and earlv this morn
ing heads of the various groups were
conferring ami the trend of most of
the conferences seemed to be to liml
ome way to turn the Wood ami Low-
len strength to Harding.
The leaders, worn and sleepless, were
'ate In reaching the convention hull.
but the delegates with interest at fev
er heat, came early, hoping to sec the
tight finished, and to get away for
home today.
The lenders remained downtown till
the last minute, many of them snatch
ing a few minutes rest. .Meanwhile
the Wood, Johnson and Lowdcn forc
es were attempting to tighten their
lues, anil both the Wood and lwden
aroups predicted they would show
greater slreiigth at the opening today
t lut ii they jilid yesterday when the
convention ailjourneit nftej n hot ten-
hour session.
Just hefore the convention assera-
iled the New York delegation caucus
ed to decide where to put its strength.
Roth Lowden and Wood are claiming
aeresswms fmm rht quarter.-. "
Ten o clock passed by and the lead
ers were slow in arriving. The visit
ors in the galleries also were rather
thin in spots.
W hen the convent inn wns called to
order the New York delegates were
still out, trying to determine how to
vote. . Indiana caucused on the floor.
As the men who conducted the dark
horse conferences arrived they said
the situation was unchanged and that
the attempt to nominate Senator aHrd.
lug would be continued. Some of the
men running the Lowden campaign on
the floor predicted that the convention
would keep right on voting till Low
den ballots passed Wood.
Harding got a gain from Missouri,
bringing his gain on the Oth ballot to
nine.
Wood had gained 12 1-2 by the
time Nebraska wns reached on the
