When the vote was announced Senator
Lodge mounted a chair and moved that the
nomination be made unanimous in grace
full speech. in which he pledged the support
of the followers Of Reed to the nominee.
Gen. Hastings of Pennsylvania followed on

ment that the republicans of Pennsylvania
welcomed the issue of protection set the

rare good humSr. and afterward they
would not be coRtent until the new gen

had responded. II;
The Ohio manager at last mounted a
chair and motioned FOR silence In the
galleries especially there was much curios-

potent and prominent in the campaign for
the nomination. hHe modestly assumed no

When the motion to make the nomination
unanimous was put. the delegates rose en-
masse. The general expression was that
the convention would take a recess at this
point, and thousands of people left the hall,

the work of the convention before adjourn
ing.
They supported Mr.. Lodges motion to
proceed with the nomination of the vice
presidency with great unanimity. 1t was

in session eight hours 1t was a quarter
after when Senator Lodge made the mo-

Samuel Fessenden of Connecticut was
recognized to nominate Governor Buckley,

thusiasm, so that the mention of the name
of Mckinley failed to draw handicap.

HENLEY, England. June 19.-The Yale
crew were out at IL o'clock this morning,
end the Trinity Hall men took the water a
little later. Both pulled a twentyfour-to to-
the-minute stroke. Yale rowed short
stretches to Temple Island and back and
then went above the bridge. The work
done by the Americans was not equal to
that of yesterday. The catch and finish
were poor. They were coached on the
catch by Bob Cook. who. today tried
an electric launch. but soon decided that
she was too slow for the work required of
her.
The Trinity Hall crew are steadying down
and rowed three stretches. They were at
their boat house by o'clock. 8

GOOD AMATEUR PLAYING.

Engrnvers and Printers Defeat the
Treasury Nine.
The Bureau of Engraving and Printing
and the Treasury Department teams met
at National Park yesterday in the Depart
mental League schedule, the former win
ming by the score of 3 to 1.
The game was a splendid exhibition of
amateur ball playing. and the Bureau team
won by clean fielding and the punching of
two or three hits. Both teams made seven
hits. but the Bureaus put up an errorless
game in the field. while the Treasury team
is charged with three misplays. The Blu
reau team was not able to do very much
with Nichols speedy delivery, and Nc
Cauley is credited with three Of the seven
hits made by the money makers
For the Bureaus Winkleman struck out
nine men to Nichols six, and kept the hits
of the cashiers well scattered throughout
the nine innings For the Treasury Stock
slayer made three of the seven hits, and
Buchanan made TWO.
The Treasury team was strengthened by
the addition of Beall at short and Wright
in left and this seemed to give the team
confidence. Bureaus put their regular team
in the field. and the game which they put
up on the bases and in the outfield was a
refreshing exhibition. The score:
