that he had been nominated unani-
mously by the Republicans at Chicago.

the White House by a press repre-
sentative in advance of its receipt over
the special telegraph wire running from
Chicago to the executive Offices.
At 2:I3 p. m. the bulletin was given
to Secretary Loeb. Some time previ-
ously the President had left his offices
in the executive building and had gone
to the White House for luncheon. Sec

veranda Of the White House, chatting
with Mrs. Roosevelt, his sister-in-law.

minutes with Mrs. Roosevelt, Miss
Carew and Loeb, and then accom-

at his desk the President chatted freely
