Falvey, city electrician, were received and accepted. The application of Falvey for building and plumbing inspector was referred to the city engineer.

Bryan took the floor at the convention to appeal for the nomination of William G. McAdoo. Bryan cited a long list of Democrats whom he said would meet every requirement of the presidency, but he climaxed his speech with a direct appeal for McAdoo's nomination. Bryan was alternately cheered and hissed by the galleries, but with a majestic dignity he sounded a battle cry to the progressives of the party to unite behind the Californiaian. The Democratic party, he said, had built a progressive platform, it had organized a progressive convention—now all it needed was a progressive candidate. "And that man is William Gibbs McAdoo," he shouted as a storm of cheers and hisses swept the ball. Bryan did not stop with McAdoo. He furnished a whole list of "eligibles" as he called them, for the convention to choose from. In the list he named A. A. Murphree, Florida university president, Bryan's choice in the early primary days; Joseph Daniels, former secretary of the navy; Senator J. T. Robinson of Arkansas; Senator Samuel M. Ralston of Indiana; E. T. Merdith, former secretary of agriculture; his own brother, Gov. Chas Bryan of Nebraska and Senator Thos. J. Walsh of Mont. In his speech for party harmony, Bryan virtually told the convention that he was making his farewell address. "This is probably the last convention in which I shall be a delegate," he said. The galleries broke into applause, so he waved his hand for silence and added, "Don't applaud, I may change my mind." Throatful his long address there was sounded a note of sadness, as the great "commoner" were making his last stand for progressive control of the Democratic party. He bitterly flayed reactionaries and boldly told the convention that it faced defeat in the coming election if it dared to name a reactionary as its candidate. His championing of McAdoo drew a wild demonstration against him from the followers of Governor Al Smith. Time and again, as he tried to continue, his voice was drowned out by hisses.

Time and again, as he tried to continue, his voice was drowned out by hisses and boos that rolled over the convention like a mighty wave.

In the end the storm of opposition subsided and he proceeded quickly to the finish of his remarkable address.

"The two bullets which killed Henry D. Meyer were not fired at close range and the shot that killed Mrs. Doris was." This coldly scientific statement made by Dr. Frank Webb, county antipy surgeon, today faced Charles William Doris, wealthy Long Beach realtor and stepfather of Charles and Wesley Ruggles, stage and screen stars, who is charged with the murder of his wife and Meyer, his friend and millionaire business associate. Webb's connection contradicts the version of the killings as made by Doris, who claims Meyer shot Mrs. Doris and then was killed in a struggle with him for possession of two guns he asserts the millionaire held in his hands. Doris, freed on $50,000 bail, will have his preliminary hearing July 10. The coroner's inquest over the two bodies, found in Doris' luxurious apartment, where the realtor was pacing the floor mumbling disconnected phrases, will be held late today.

Staff Correspondent) MADISON SQUARE GARDEN, NEW YORK, July 2.—Within an hour after William J. Bryan gained the platform and made a dramatic attempt to turn the presidential nomination to William G. McAdoo and away from John W. Davis, Governor Al Smith, Senator Oscar Underwood and others of whom the commoner does not approve—the Democratic national convention adjourned this afternoon at 4 o'clock with a deadlock still in existence at the close of the 38th ballot. The convention will meet again at 8 o'clock tonight and resume balloting in an effort to break the deadlock. The 38th ballot found McAdoo with 444, leading the field, Smith trailing with 321, and John W. Davis in third place with 104. Bryan's attempt to "tell the convention" who it should nominate was resented by not only all the New Yorkers and Smith people present, but by the managers of every candidate not specifically endorsed by the commoner from the platform this afternoon. MADISON SQUARE GARDEN, NEW YORK, July 2.—William G. McAdoo checked his decline today in the race for the democratic presidential nomination and began to recover some of the ground lost in the previous assaults on his delegations. After sinking to a new low figure of 404.5 on the thirty-third ballot, the McAdoo managers successfully staged a "break" on the 34th and took Mississippi's 20 votes away from John W. Davis. The McAdoo states seized upon this new hope with fervor and immediately launched a demonstration that ended in the inevitable parade thru the alley. William Jennings Bryan got credit for the Mississippi switch. He has labored consistently within the delegation ever since they first started voting for John W. Davis, and the success that has NOT SURPRISED AT U. S. FLAG INSULT VICTORIA, B.
