mer's important visit to the home OF
the Cables. Eddie Deever lounged into
Rigby's presence. He seemed relieved
to find that the stenographer was Ill
and would not be down that day. The
lanky youngster studiously inspected
the array Of law books in the cases for
some time, occasionally casting sly
glance at Bobby. At last he ventured
a remark somewhat out of the ordi-
nary-for him:
"That old man up in Bansemers Of
fee gets on my nerves." said he, set
ting his long frame in chair and
breaking in upon Rigby's attention so
suddenly that the lawyer was startled
into a quick look of interest

Nothing in particular, of course.

decidedly the feature Of a day other
wise notable for a stirring speech
from the permanent chairman of the
convention, Senator Henry Cabot
Lodge of Massachusetts, for much
practical procedure in placing the con-
vention on a smooth running basis and
for the final defeat OF the plan to re
duce the representation of Southern
states at future national conventions
Probably the most important act of
the day, and the one having greatest
significance, was the adoption of the
report Of the committee on credentials,
seating the Taft delegations practical
ly in toto. If there had been any
lingering doubt of the Taft strength il
disappeared before this decisive &C
lion. which in effect placed upward OF
700 delegates in the Taft column
Equally important, and even more re-
markable, was the final acceptance OF
this result by the "allies' without the
formality of a dissenting minority re-
port and without carrying the ques-
ton to the floor of the convention for
the open fight, which had been long
threatened.
The resolution offered by James
Francis Burke of Pennsylvania reduc-
ing the representation of states to
those states was defeated by a vote
of SOC to All after a bitter fight on
the floor of the convention.

A large number of states had endorsed
his candidacy in caucus and it spread
like wildfire The New York delega-

and when the voting began there was
a rush Of delegates to fall into line,

Mr. Cannon was uproariously greet
