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,
Selling 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 car Il the Taft total to
81, or 20 more than enough to NOM
mate. Still the call went on until the
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
of Illinois, 81 votes; for Robert La Fol
lettC of Wisconsin, % votes; for
| Charles E. Hughes Of New York, GO
votes; for Phlander c. Knox of Penn.
| sylvania, GS votes, and William II. Taft
Of Ohio. 702 votes.
A great shout went up as Lodge
concluded his announcement, and with
| one accord the cohorts Of Cannon anG
Knox and Hughes and the other
| heroes, Joined in common tribute fol
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 fO
! the day Thursday the situation re
gaTding second place on the ticket va
decidedly unsettled, but before the del
egates met Friday an arrangement ha'
been perfected for the Taft delegate
to support Representative James S
Sherman of New York as the RUNNING
mate of the secretary of war
Three names were placed in nom
nation when the chairman announce
that nominations were in order. Shel
man was named as New YOrk's chOic
by Tim Woodruff, former lieutenan
governor of the state; Gov Curt
Guild of Massachusetts was placed i
nomination by Senator Lodge, and r.
Gov. Franklin Murphy of New Jerse
was named by Thomas n. McCarte
Several brief seconding speeches wer
made for each candidate.
When the roll call was begun it wa
soon seen that Sherman was the pop,
; lar choice of the delegates. Whe
enough votes had been cast to insul
, his nomination Senator Crane
Massachusetts moved that it be mao
unanimous and it was ~Nrried with
! shout of approval.
The usual motions of aCknowled
ment to the officers Of the conventic
] and to the city in which 1t was he
were then passed.

Roosevelt Demonstration.


The second day Of the Republican
national convention brought the long,
expected Roosevelt yell, a whir}Wlnd or
enthusiasm which ragged within the
vast amphitheater of the Coliseum for
fun 45 minutes Wednesday, and for
time presented to the timid the spec
ter of a Roosevelt stampede.
This demonstration was decidedly
the feature Of a day otherwise notable
for a stirring speech from the perma.
ncnt chairman of the convention, Sen
ator Henry Cabot Lodge of Massachu-
sets. for much practical procedure
in placing the convention on smooth
running basis, and for the final defeat
of the plan to reduce the representa-
ton of southern states at future ma
tional conventions.
Mr.. Lodge early in his address
launched his sentence which electri-
fed the assembIage into its first real
demonstration of wild enthusiasm
THE president, exclaimed MI
Lodge, els 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 tempest of de-
tached yells, and catcalls and shouts
of "Teddy," but gradually gathering
force and volume until it swelled to a
whirlwnd of sound and motion. as
delegates and spectators rose er
masse, mounting chairs, waving ban
ners. hats. handkerchiefs: flags, news
papers, anything which could be seized
upon to add turbulence to the scene
