Orderly But Interested
Crowd Fills Galleries

Seldom has such an orderly crowd in
vested the galleries of the House on an
important occasion as was present this
morning.
This is explained by the fact that no.
body not employed there was allowed in
the House wing of the Capitol EXCEPT
upon displaying a special ticket of adj
mission or credentials as member of
the press gallery. Only representatives
and senators could come and 20 abso-
Iutely as they pleased.
In consequence the doorkcepers at the
various galleries had a mighty easy time
Practically every Bit OF available space
in the galleries was occupied by II 80
o'clock
1t is true that 1.0oo tickets were issued
and that there are only SGo seats in the
galleries: but most of the extra 200 were
stored away in inches and on stairways
SO that they could see what went on.
Presidents Daughters Present.
The executive gallery was unusually
well filled. In the front row WAS Miss
Ethel Roosevelt daughter of the Presi-
dent. with party of young lady friends
Directly behind was Mrs Nicholas Long
worth. In her party was Miss Ethel
Barrymore. the actress who is PLAYING
in this city this week. The only member
of the cabinet present was Secretary of
the Navy Newberry. who had with him
his wife and friend.
Everybody in the executive gallery man
ifested the liVeliest sort of interest in
everything that went on, even during the
hour between noon and ! o'clock when
a lot of routine matters We're being dis
posed of prior to the coming of the SEN
ators to help count the electoral votes
The diplomatic gallery was nearly filled
also. mostly by ladies from the various
legations in elaborate toilets.
The public galleries land those usually
reserved for members and their families
and friends were all OCCUPIED by those
who produced cards furnished them by "a
senator or member of the House.
