to maintain order.
\o Inlrrruplion.
The attention and silence thai ^greet?
ed the address by Colonel IfSOsSSsU
was as mark, d as the demonstration
that preceded it. At the first attempts
to interrupt with applause, the Presi?
dential candidate motion, d imperative?
ly with his le:t hand siknee. and he
accompanied ttiis gesture witti a shake
of the head, which made the crowd
realize his desire to be allowed tu
speak without interruption. The im?
mense garden was '.rowdd to its
doors, and tlasusands of persons were
turned away. Governor Hiram Joim
son. Progressive candidate for Vice
i'lesiueiit. and Oscar S. Straus, candi?
date tor Governor ol New York, pre?
ceded Colonel kooseveit.
Colonel Kooseveit adhered to the
text of his prepared speech, without
cnanglng scarcely a word throughout. ]
His voice was full and strong, pene- ,
trating to the extreme corner* of the |
tsaplillhialls His i:-rht hund, because
of the wound in his right aide, was
scarcely moved in gestures, aitbougii
he tapped with it emphatically several
times upon the railing. He gestured
vigorously with his left arm through-:
out bis speech.
The cruwds about Madison Square '
Garden were orderly, but the police
exercised extreme care to prevent any
confusion .Six men were arrested dur
sag the evening within and without i
the hau for refusing to obey the strict
orders aa to open aisles and against
overcrowding. The scenes in the
neighboring streets and squares were
such aa only big political demonstra- '
tioas call forth.
Streagly Cuarae*.
Colonel Kooseveit. when he arrived,
was strongly guarded: and although
flashlight artists got a picture or two.
it was from a distance, for no one
was allowed to spproach when the
Colonel left hi* automobile. He was
escorted into the building by way of
a fire escape and left the building by
the same route
A sea of waving bandanas snd a
great chorus of yells greeted the can?
didates as they appeared upon the
platform, and It was Ml l>efOTe Sen

rational committee, could gain order
and present Mr. Straus sa the first
speaker.
Mr. Straus spoke but a few min?
