The American Federation of Labor

warned lto affiliated international un

Senator Lodge Gets New
Board Upon Which to
Whack Gavel
I CHICAGO, June 11. In spite oi
,thc sweltering temperature inside the
.convention hall, tho delegates began
! to pile into their places a full half
(hour before today's session was to be
igln. j They were rearing to have it over
I with and" the possibility that the nom
inations might bo made today and the
I convention ended seemed to take some
of the edge over their distress from
the heat.
It gave promise of being the hot
test ilny of the convention In all re
Ispects. The sun got to work with a
I vigor exceeding even the feverish ef
forts of candidates' managers in their
! eleventh hour efforts to line up a
winning combination.
Ileal Rig Feature.
Most of those on the convention
floor and in the galleries came with
fans and many of the delegates strip
ped off their coats before they took
their seats. For tho time being, at
least, the hot weather was the big
feature In the convention picture.
At-9:30 however, whon the conven
tion should have been callod to order,
there still were grcnt empty, patches
of seals in the delegates' section -and
tho platform was almost empty. The
: crowd set lip an ever-growing rum
1 bit of conversation while It waited for
the parly lenders to get through with
their conferences in their hotels a mile
.away.
During the wait the delegates still
I were asking one another who was to
'be nominated and the usual repiy was
j distinctly of the "damn if I know"
character. Tho managers for all the
j candidates tried to outdo one another
in confidence over the result. The
(Wood people were claiming a victory
j by the third or fourth ballot. The
ipicdicllous of the others were less
definite.
AVooil Program Revised.
' The Wood managers, who had plan
ned to have a string of second j
.speeches for their candidate, revised
their program at the last minute so:
that only Frank Knox of Now Hamp
shire and Mrs. Douglas Robinson, ofi
; Now York, would' second General
Wood's nomination.
1 When nine forty-five passed the del- j
egates' space was pretty well filled but
not a single one of the first line lead
ers had 'put in his appearance The
band filled Jn with something that
sounded like a lullaby.
For the first time since tho con
vention began, candidates for the
presidency were missing from tho
lloor. Dr. Butler, of New York, gave
his proxy to a woman who sat in a
box.
Sproul Present.
Governor Sproul dropped in for a
fow minutes, but announced. he would
return- to his. hotel when balloting
started. The friends of Senator John
son said they did not expect their can
didate to show himself in the coll
beum. Delaware delegates said the
plan to nominate T. Coleman Dupont
had been abandoned, but the dele
gates would vote for him on the first
ballot.
A robust delegate from West Vir
ginia, manifestly preparing for a tem
pestuous ilme. .look off his galluses
and put them in hi pocket. Just
about that time tho baud played "Reu
ben, Reuben, I've Beon Thinkin',"
At a few minutes to ten, heat, niu-!
sic and conversation still constituted
the sum total of the convention's busi
ness. The lateness of the leaders
caused much speculation among the
rank and file who wondered what
deals to break tho nomination, dead
lock might be under way.
Two minutes before ten, Senator
Lodge, the chairman, and Will Hays,
appeared on the platform but tho mill
ing delegatos hardly noticed. Tho
band was choked off and a minute
ljiter the convention was called to or
ocr. Senator Lodge rapping for order
on a newly-made gavfil plank.
Yesterday he had nearly smashed
the thin table lop. Rev. John Meyer,
of Chicago, offered prayer.
A new uoundlncr board for Snnnf nr
Lodge's gavel was an innovation. It
was composed of several planks as a
shock absorber for a table but It lack
ed the table s punch.
The delegates kept impatiently
swinging their fans and shuffling their
feet during tho prayer and after Sen
ator Lodge rapi cd hard many times
before he got the convention quieted
down.
By a rising voto and in a rour of
applause tho convention then adopted
a resolution offerod by Alexander J
Moore, of Pittsburg, expressing "in
expressible loss" over tho death of
Theodore Roosevelt, "loved unuttera
bly now and to bo loved as long as
our nation cherishes ItH noble pa
triots." Senator Lodge amid choers said tho
lime had come for the convention to
hear nominations for the presidency,

Piaced in Nomination in Rapid Succession; Wheeler '

CQUESEUM, Chicago, June IL During the fim six hours or a swelt- i fH
lering session today the Republican national convention got i lie big three ' H
Johnson, Lowden and Wood in nomination before II and then passed on H
to the string of candidates who may figure as the dark horses. H
As (he convention forged ahead without a break for rest or refreshment H
m the hottest day of the year, the tired and exhausted delegates began ask H
I lug their leaders to arrange a recess or adjournment. H
J - Some of the western contingent wanted to adjourn without taking a
ballot after the nomination speeches had been concluded and some of the
others including the Illinois delegation which is for Lowden wanted to ar
range for an adjournment after Hie second ballot. I
The Wood people stood on their refusal to have an adjournment after 1
the first ballot on which they expected their candidate to show his mini:
mum of strength. H
Announcement was made that General T. Coleman du Pont had with- jf
j drawn from the Republican presidential nomination. How the Delaware
(vote will be cast since General du Pont has withdrawn his name has not (
been made known, .lf
Just before 3 o'clock, Chicago time, five1 candidates had been placed in ,H
nomination and Ogden Mills of New York, took the platform to nominate jH
Dr. Nicholas Murray Butler. jH
! Herbert Hoover will be placed in nomination for the presidency this, jH
'afternoon before the Republican national convention. It was decided to place; jH
him in nomination with a speech by Nathan L. Miller of Syracuse. jM
COLISEUM, Chicago, June 11, Late again in getting under way. the jH
Republican national convention met under an agreement to stay In session jH
until a presidential candidate has been nominated. The prospects were for H
an all day and possibly a night session. ' H
j At 10:06 o'clock the secretary began calling the roll or states for nomi- 'll
nations. Alabama passed and Arizona yielded to Kansas for the nomination 'H
of General Wood by Governor Henry Allen. ;H
Senator Lodge shook hands with Governor Allen and the crowd cheered, 1
waving Wood pennants, hats and handkerchiefs. Yl
I During Governor Allen's recital of General Wood's record of public H
I service, the Wood supporters interjected frequent cheers. If
CRACK TAKEN AT MR. B, RYAN.
When the governor made a crack at William J. Bryan's celebrated die-
turn about a million men' springing lo arms overnight, he looked dorh al 'H
(where Mr, Bryan vas sitting in the press box. l3ut the Nebraskan "had hig H
nose to his manuscript trying to write, on. industriously while a plump( Aroniajj, Jjl
writer was shewing'' through the" Harrow afsle'h'ehind "his chair. If" hheafftF "H
' the reference he did not let on. 1
, . There was much moving around by the delegates, however, and a mild
rumble of conversation kept up. There were many Wood boosters in the
i galleries and (hey kept breaking in with applause, as Governor Allen re
, counted the achievements of his candidate.
' Governor Allen worked hard at his speech and the perspiration rolled i
down in cataracts over his quickly wilted laundry. While the speech waa I
going on arrangements were made for Governor Lowden's nominating speech
Jto follow General Wood's. Arkansas delegates, next on the roll, said the state t IJ
would yield to Illinois. . '
I California, next'in line, was to (name Senator Johnson, disposing of the '
'big three." ; IH
! LODGE AND SMOOT ON STAND. - (
As the unbossed convention rolled in everything according to schedule,
Senators Lodge and Smoot, of the old Republican school, sat side by-, sido
behind the chairman's table.
'. At the concluding word of the nominating speech, thousands of raan; j
j colored turkey feathers which havo been the convention badge of the Wood ;
I people were loosed from the celling of tho coliseum and floated down over . tM
the cheering delegates. I vM
The lights were turned on to give the photographers a chance while '1
many of those on the floor mounted chairs and waved Wood banners. jH
Approximately 200 delegates, perhaps more or less, were taking part in jf
the cheering and flag, waving. Many of those on tho floor yelled like real 1
Indians and they looked like Indians, with the hair of the women and the I IH
collars of the men decorated by the falling feathers. j
"It's Wood, let's go," seemed to be the motif running through the con- '
j fusion of shouting. In one corner a bunch of roolers kept up a continual '
torn torn of Igorrote Philippine music. ' IH
PROCESSION IS STARTED.
"It's Wood, let's go" also was printed on many of the blue and white 'M
; banners waving over the Wood groups When the demonstration had boen I
on about ton minutes the inevitable procession started. It was led by dele- I fA
gates from Minnesota and it started snaking its way about the convention
j hall just as Senator Lodge had come to the front of the platform and rapped ;
for order. He wont back again and sat down as the parade gathered mo- JH
mentum. 1 IH
It looked strange to many of the old timers to see women for the first
time among the marchers. Changing their slogan, the circulating Wood .
people took up "We want Wood" as their marching cry.
California supplied flags to various friendly delegations to be waved in IH
the interest of Johnson. The sevoral delegates from Nebraska favorable to , IH
Wood immediately commandeered them when the procession started.
The convention managers saw prospects of a very long session when '
the demonstration' went on and on. They guessed the supporters of tha ' IH
othor candidates would try to outdo the Wood people with the result lha;
balloting might be long delayed.
STRANGE NOISE MAKER. jH
In the gallery behLnd the platform a big group of men and women started 1 IH
i yelling "Wood, Wood, Wood" in an endless rhythm while some enthusiast j
unmasked a noise maker that kept time to the yells and sounded like a big f
buck saw. I IH
When the noise had lasted for fifteen minutes Senator Lodge tried agaji'i , IH
to get order but the demonstrators only replied with a renewed outburst IH
of noise. At (hat time the parading had about died down but the general'd
faithful wero not willing to keep quiet or sit down.
At the twenty minute mile post the delegates showed signs of quitting IH
but the galleries kept up the din, cheer leaders standing in many of thes I jH
sections and whooping it up every tune there seemed any possibility tho
demonstration would end.
LIKE SOLDIERS MARCHING. IH
The "Wood.Wood.Wood," repetition made an easily recognized imita,tio3 IH
of soldiers marching, it broke out intermittently ,and combined with the
torn torn and the buck saw contraption almost drowned the blaring of tin
horns and the cheering in the other parts of the hall.
During the demonstration Frank Hitchcock, supreme chief of the Wood
forces," was on the platform conferring with Frank Knox, his floor leader. '
When tho noise makers had been at it for halt an hour, they still wer j IH
golug strong, and the chairman was making no further attempt to put oa J ' IH
the lid.
A few minutes later, however, Lodge renewed his pounding with the. u JH
gavel, but all tho good it did him was the gymnastjc benefit of the exercise, i
Most of the delegatos -seemed to, bo willing to agree with Senator Lodge .
that the convention ought to go on with its work. For the most part' they
sat glum and emitted never a peep but the galleries replied to the chair- j IH
man'B ratatat with a renewed burst of noise. jJ
FIRST HUSHING ATTEMPTED.
At thirty-five minutes the first hushing was attempted by the delegate IH
and galleries themselves. Tho demonstration quieted- down somewhat ad IH
the noise liko escaping steam pervaded tho hall, but there were also many
renewed cheers. jJ
The delegates cheered when Senator Lodge at the end of forty minutes . ( IH
said tho delegates all were in their seals and that the galleries would bn . 1 IH
cleared unless they quieted down.
The announcement got the desirod result and at once Senator Lodge I lll
presented Frank Knox of New Hampshire to second General Wood's nonij- J IH
