 During the morning session of the first day was the address by Can't R. P. Hobson, sent as representative i from the Peace Congress, then assem- bled In New York City. Introducing him to the Congress, the President General said: Tt Is now my proud privilege to introduce 8 hero, whom everyone of you knows, admires and loves I bring before you a man who, ] like Washington. has proven himself first In war and who Is now proving | himself first in peace; and with the most respectful admiration for him, 1 would say that he is first in the hearts of his countrymen and women. (Ap- plause).
 Extracts from this address have been published in this column.-Ed.) The dent-General-The chair would suggest rising vote of thanks 1 for this marvellous speech to which we have listened. (The Congress rose). l Accept it (the rising resolution) at our hands, Captain Hobson, and now 1 the chair asks the house to give him the assurance that immediately upon | our full organization. for business we will pass a resolution tending toward peace. which resolution we will trans init by his hands. if he will be good enough to be our messenger, to the | great Peace Congress in New York. l (Applause). Have 1 that assurance? | (Cries of ''yes.) I will ask Captain Hobson if he will be a messenger of a gentler sort2 The only thing to mar the happiness of his presence here to- | day is the absence of his wife, who is not well enough to be with us. It Is a great deprivation to her, I know. for
 how proud she would have been of him if she could have heard his every word. I am going to ask him if he | will permit me to consider him the
 poetic messenger (while we will pro- vide an actual one) to carry these
 flowers to Mrs. Hobson? (Applause).
 Captain Hobson--I thank you in her
 behalf.
