On the eve of the assembling of the Democratic national convention next Monday there Are three major factions, each maneuvering to make its leader the nominee for the presidency. The leaders of thesefactions, named In the order of apparent strength. In the convention, are: James M. Cox. governor of Ohio, backn of whom are massed the antladmlnistra-tioforces and the "wets.' of William Gibbs McAdoo, the president and former secretary of the treasury, whom, despite his definite with-of drawal of his name, the aggregation federal office holders, the International bankers working for the league of nations and railroad and other labor elements are bent upon nominating. A. Mitchell Palmer, attorney general ot the United States, supported by some of the organisation Democrats and patronage of the department of justice and alien son-in-la- w property custodians office. Possibilities in Background. In the background of possibilities ready for consideration in the event of a deadlock are Vice President Marshall, John W. Davis, American ambassador to Great Britain; former Speaker Champ Clark, and, lastly. President Wilson himself. While the friends of Governor Cox were concentrating on plans to keep him In the ruse until a majority can be rounded up. the McAdoo managers were proceeding upon the assumption that both Cox and Palmer would be eliminated by a deadlock and the opportunity offered to stampede the convention to the president's At tL conference of the McAdoo leaders, National Committeeman Amidon of Kansas was appointed their floor leader, and Victor Murdock of Kansas, the former Republican Bull Mooser, was agreedfor upon vice as a candidate for the nomination Wilson In president. Murdock supported 1916 and was rewarded with appointment to the trade commission.

In addition, there is a widespread reeling among the delegates that Palmer Is distinctly unavailable because of the enmity of labor aroused by the coal strike Injunction and because of the revelations that his campaign managers are counsel for Pennsylvania steel Interests which have escaped prosecution for alleged defrauding of the government of Income taxes.
