He also described the Chicago police department as "one of the great police departments in the United States" and its chief, Supt. James B. Conlisk, as "one of the great chiefs of police of the United States." It is expected the FBI probe will be all -encompassing - extended to state police, members of the Secret Service, FBI men them- selves and other security forces inside and outside convention hall. The Secret Service, responsible for the safety of the candidates and described by Clark as the "lead agency" for over-all se- curity at the convention, was known to be conferring with Chi- cago police officials. A Secret Service official point- ed out yesterday, however, that crowd handlers-sergeant-at-arms and the like-in convention hall, were not under. the federal agency's direct supervision. Indi- vidual activities by local police also are taken independent of the Secret Service. Rout protesters In Mexico City MEXICO CITY (A') - Shooting broke out in the heart of Mexico City yesterday after police and federal troops chased student dis- sidents from the square in front of the presidential palace. There were unconfirmed reports of injuries.. Ambulances wailed through the city. Teargas gren- ades exploded near the square. Just before the shooting, an es- timated 50,0p0 persons gathered to watch the removal of a flag rais- ed byademonstrators in front of the palace. About 1,500 students had been sitting in front of the main door of the palace, where President Gustavo Diaz Ordaz has his office, demanding removal of three police officials and re-establishment of university autonomy, among other things. Broadcasting Co. shouted: "Look at those cops; look at those god-, damn bastard cops." One policemen was overheard telling another that all the police had to do, to the demonstrators was "delouse them, give them a bath and beat the shit out of all off them." National Guardsmen in great number arrived to assist the po- lice. Some of the guard jeeps were draped with barbed wire, appar- ently designed to push crowds back forcefully. They were not used. reporters on the scene were herd- ed into the Hilton where they could not see what was going on in the street. Unidentified secur- ity guards inside the hotel kept reporters, guests and hangers-on away from the windows! and pre- vented them from opening cur- tains. One of the guards said police had told him that if people began congregating at the win- dows, they would be shot. After about a half-hour in front of the Hilton, the demonstrators began to disperse. Although harassment of news- men by police seemed lessened yesterday, sev men apparently were the Hilton. Tom Thom bureau chief for Time "I was standing in with about 10 newsm down some notes.

The delegates' verdict, greeted with a roar of applause and howls of disapproval, was a significant victory for Vice President Hubert H. Humphrey. He had asked that his negotiating options be left open in event he is elected Presi- dent. But it was a crushing defeat for his challengers for the Democratic presidential . nomination, Sens. Eugene J. McCarthy and George S. McGovern. Both had endorsed the minority de-escalation plank.
