known early in the evening of Nov. 3,

that William H. Taft and James $.
Sherman were officially declared to be
elected president and vice president,
respectively, for four years, beginning
March 4, 1909.
This quadrennial function of con-
gress attracted to the house chamber
an immense gathering this afternoon.
The demand for tickets was so large
among officials and tf-ir frier DIS that
there was little room for the general
public Practically the entire gallery,
except those sections reserved for the
press, the executive and the diplomatic
corps, was reserved for the wives and
daughters of members of congress
Previous to the opening of the joint
session the returns from all the states
were taken from the safe in the vice
presidents room in the rear OF the SEN

box kept for such purposes. George
b. Lockwood, secretary to the vice
president, was delegated to carry the
box to the house chamber In early
