Mr.. Croker and the rest of the delega-

the galleries could plainly see them,
lied back to their seats on the left Of
the main aisle, accompanied by cheers.
Cleveland Manager Whitney came in
soon afterwards and joined the anti

In the long wait the band was the
only source of relief for the impatient
galleries.
Precisely at 11:3O Temporary Chair
