the first ballot in the Republican con-
vention at Chicago, receiving 7Oz
votes Then, amid scenes of wild en-
thusiasm, he was made the unanimous
choice of the convention. The major
ity report of the platform committee
was adopted after a debate. For Sec

fore.

of the national committee went to Gin
cinnati to consult Mr. Taft as TO his
choice for national chairman.
For As minutes the delegates and
spectators in the Republican national
convention wildly cheered for Presi-
dent Roosevelt. The vast throng In
the Coliseum was crazy with enthusi-
asm and some people feared that the
threatened Roosevelt stampede was
about to take place. The demonstra-
ton was started by Senator Lodges
speech as permanent chairman. The
credentials committee reported, seat
ing all the Taft delegates. and the con-
vention voted down the proposition to-
reduce the representation of southern
states in future conventions.
At an all night session Of the Gre
dentials committee of the Republican
national convention ITO contests
brought by the "allies" were consid-
cred, the decisions being in favor OF
the Taft adherents. A sub committee
of the resolutions committee labored
over the platform, modifying many OF
the planks. Gov. Cummins of Iowa
became the leading candidate for the
vice-presidential nomination, With
Fairbanks a close second.

Roosevelt Demonstration.
The second day of the Republican

expected Roosevelt yell, whirlwind OF
enthusiasm which ragged within the
vast amphitheater of the Coliseum for
full As minutes Wednesday, and for a
time presented to the timid the spec.
ter of a Roosevelt stampede.

for stirring speech from the perma-

in placing the convention on a smooth
running basis, and for the final defeat
Of the plan to reduce the representa-
ton of southern states at future ma

Mr. Lodge early in his address
launched his sentence which electri-
fed the assemblage into its first real
demonstration of wild enthusiasm.
The president" exclaimed Mr..
Lodge, "is the best abused and most
popular man in the United States to-
day"
This was the long awaited signal.
Instantly a shout broke from the gal
leries and was echoed back from the
floor, at first only a tempest Of de-
tached yells, and cat-calls, and shouts

force and volume until 1t swelled to a

TAFT AS PRESIDENT;
SHERMAN FOR MATE,
IS REPUBLICAN SLATE
Convention at Chicago Selects Ma
tional Ticket and Adjourns--Wild
Enthusiasm on Nomination of
OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES for
: Theodore Roosevelt

Amid this pandemonium, and with
the galleries in full control. Chairman
Lodge decided upon heroic action in
order again to make the convention
master of its affairs. He ordered the
roll call OF states to begin for the
vote on president. Such a call, under
such circumstances of intense con-
fusion, has probably never before oc-
Cured in the history of national con
ventions. The secretary was power
less to make his call of the states
heard above the deafening clamor
Seizing a megaphone he shouted the
roll of states-Alabama, Arkansas
but his voice was swallowed up in the
mad uproar Gradually, however, the
curiosity of the multitude conquered
their enthusiasm, and they lapsed into
silence to hear the result Of the roll
call.
A hush of expectancy hung over
the assembly as the call proceeded.
Hasty summaries showed that Taft
was far in advance. When New York
was reached the Taft column totaled
427. Ohio carried the Taft total to
511, or 20 more than enough to NOM
final result was announced by Chair
man Lodge:
For Theodore Roosevelt, 8 votes;
for Joseph B. Foraker OF Ohio 16
votes; for Charles w. Fairbanks OF
Indiana, 40 votes; for Joseph Cannon
- I11inDte Dol 4 ri
lette of Wisconsin, rs votes; for
Charles z. Hughes of New York, 60
votes; for Philander c. Knox of Penn
sylvania, 68 votes, and William H. Taft
of Ohio, 702 votes.
A great shout went up as Lodge
concluded his announcement, and with
one accord the cohorts of Cannon and
Knox and Hughes and the other
heroes, Joined in a common tribute for
the candidate of the party.
Sherman for Second Place.
The nomination for the vice-presi
dency was not made until Friday
When the convention adjourned for
garding second place on the ticket was
decidedly unsettled, but before the del
egates met Friday an arrangement had
been perfected for the Taft delegates
to support Representative James s
Sherman of New York as the running
mate Of the secretary of war.
Three names were placed in nomi
nation when the chairman announced
that nominations were in order. Sher
man was named as New York's choice
by Tim Woodruff, former LIEUTENANT
governor of the state; Gov Curtis
| Guild OF Massachusetts was placed II
nomination by Senator Lodge, and lex
Gov. Franklin Murphy of New Jerse,
was named by Thomas N. McCarter
Several brief seconding speeches were
made for each candidate.
When the roll call was begun II wa
soon seen that Sherman was the popu
lar choice OF the delegates. Whel
enough votes had been cast to insur,
his nomination Senator Crane o
Massachusetts moved that IL be mad
unanimous and IL was carried with
shout of approval.
The usual motions OF acknowiede
ment to the officers OF the convehtioi
and to the city in which Il was hel,
were then passed.

Chicago. Taft and Sherman.
This is the ticket of the Repub-
lican party flung to the breeze Fri
day as the Republican national con-
vention concluded with the nomination
of James S. Sherman OF New York
for vice-president amid final roar Of
tumultuous demonstration.
Scene of Wild Enthusiasm.
The picture within the walls of the
vast amphitheater as the presidential
candidate was named Thursday was
one truly gradiose in its magnitude.
In front, to the right and left, below
and above, the billowing sea OF hui
mainly, restless after hours of walt
ing and stirred from one emotiCA to
another, was in fever of expectancy
for the eliminating vote. The favorite
sons of other states had been named,
save Knox and La Toilette, and now
on the roll call came Ohio.
AS the Buckeye state was reached,
the tall, gaunt form OF Theodore K.
Burton, with student-like face and
severe black clerical garb, advanced to
the platform to nominate Ohio's can
didate. He spoke fervently, with the
singing voice Of an evangelist, which
went ringing through the great build
ing. The close of his speech of
nomination was the signal for loosing
the long pent-up feeling Of the Taft
legions. Instantly the Ohio delegates
were on their feet, other Taft states
following, while the convention hosts,
in gallery and on floor, broke into mad
demonstration. For 10, Is, 20 minutes,
this uproar continued. At last the
tired voices died down to a hoarse
shout, and subsidized.
Seconded by knight.
This lull now gave the opportunity
for the speech seconding Taft's nom.
ination, by George II. knight of Cali.
fornia, his big, round face beaming
forth on the sympathetic multitude
and his splendid baritone voice we'll
ing forth like the tones of a great
church organ. CALIFORNIA; tribute tc
Taft was brief and fervid. Now there
was another lull in the Taft movement
while the remaining candidates were
placed in nomination.
II was late in the afternoon before
the convention, now literally swelter
ing with the intense heat and weary
after nearly seven hours of continuous
session, reached the end of the fiooC
of eloquence and the decks were al
last cleared for the eliminating act.
Demonstration for La Toilette.
But, no; just as the last swell o
oratory, the seconding speech for Ii
Toilette, had died away. like a cyclon,
from a clear sky burst a La Toilette
demonstration which swept the con
vention from its very bearings. ]
was the same deafening wave OF sount
that had greeted Roosevelt Wednesda!
and Taft little while before, intens'
and maddening and with the vital rinl
of genuine enthusiasm. II seemed a.
though Wisconsin had suddenly pee
pied every foot Of the galleries. Tn
delegates sat calm and waiting, ex
cept the frantic Wisconsins, but tn
convention for the time being was II
the possession of the galleries.
Now a singular transformation oc
CURED - gradually the whirlwin'
yeered from la Toilette to Roosevelt
