seating of an equal number of men from
the two delegations to make full repre-
sentation from the state. Obstacles were.
however, found in the way of this proceed
ing in a large part of the state, and when
the matter was taken up in the committee
today that body decided to put none of the
delegates from the state at large or from
the third and fifth districts on the tempo
rary roll.

After an hours sitting. the committee
concluded its ante-convention labors and
adjourned sine die. Aside from the action
taken upon the Alabama contest, the most
important matter which came before the
committee at today's meeting was the res
ignation of Colonel Swords as sergeant-at
arms of the committee. The colonel has
held this position for twelve years, and
there were general expressions of regret as
well as of surprise over his determination
to resign. The following resolution. intro
adopted after eulogistic remarks by Messrs.
Payne, Clayton, Manley. Thurston and
Gibbs:
Resolved, That approaching the long and
faithful services of Col. Henry L. Swords
as sergeant-a farms of the committee. the
committee extends TO him its acknowledge
ment of his successful administration of the
office and the courteous manner in which
he has discharged his duties: be it further
resolved that in retiring from the service
OF the committee he carries with him the
good will of all the members, and that this
resolution be placed upon the records and
copy presented to him a testimonial Of
our esteem.
Committeeman Tiepkc of Rhode Island Sc
cured permission to withdraw his resolu
ton concerning the representation of nom
republican states in Congress from the table
for the purpose of presenting ii to the COM
mittee on resolutions unprcjudiced by COM
mittee action.
Delegates From Alaska.
The delegates from Alaska, John f. Held
and w. d. Grant, were admitted to seats
as Were those from Hawaii, Col. Samuel
Parker and A. n. Kepoikoi. In the latter
case there were some pleasant speeches.
Col Parker said that his grandfather
an American and that he felt proud to be an
American citizen, and was glad to be al
lowed to sit in national convention.
After resolutions of thanks to Chairman
Hanna and Secretary Dick. and also to the
press of the country and the people of
