credentials committee dealt with the
Mississippi delegation at large. and
recommended the seating of the Taft
delegation. When the reading was
concluded the gallery crowd shouted:
The "ayes have it."
The good nature which prevailed all
yesterday was again evident. The
Tat delegates were seated viva-voce
as they also were in tie second, fifth,
sixth and seventh districts OF Missis-
sippi.
The fourth North Carolina, third
Oklahoma and second Tennessee dist

COMMITTEE CAUSES DELAY.
CHICAGO, June 22.-After getting
under way In an effort to close up
the business today the Republican
National Convention was forced to
halt and mark time by delay In the
credentiaIs Committee report.

while the material was furnished by

Qavel. In each case the Taft dele.

CHICAGO, June 22.-The band
played 1.-THE Last Rose Of Summer"
as the delegates began to arrive about
10 o'clock. Il was evident the con-
vention would be late In converting.
CHICAGO, June 22.-It vas the
hope of party leaders, when the fifth
day Of the Republican National Con-
vention opened this morning, that
the work would be concluded late to-
night. The leaders, it is said, agreed
upon tentative plan, of morning, az
ternoon and night sessions. with the
nomination Of presidential and vice
presidential candidates as the climax
of the final session.
May Have Two Days. Debate.
If, however, events force the con-
vention over till Monday it will re.
quire at least two days debate next
week, it is estimated, before the con-
clusion is reached. The officers of
the convention are influenced in their
plans, on one hand by the anxiety of
the delegates to get home, and the
other by desire to allow ample time
for the discussion of all issues before
the final adjournment.
Vice Presidents Proposed.
1t is strongly indicated that Roose-
velt's name will not be presented to
the convention at all, except without
his consent. With Roosevelt appar-
emily out of the fight in this conven-
ton and Taft's nomination seeming
ly a foregone conclusion, the chief
interest centers on the oominee of
vice president. The names Of Sher-
man, Hadley Of Missouri, Kenyon, of
Iowa, Borah OF Idaho, Nicholas Muir
ray Butler Of New York, and John
Wanamaker Of Philadelphia, are most
frequently named in this connection.
Leaders may choose to not discuss
this question until they have COM
pleted the nomination of the presi-
Dental candidate.

of just what Roosevelt would do az
ter the final adjournment Of the con-
vention in case he Is not nominated.

new party are commented upon but

ton is called it will probably be IN
August, and that the progressive
members OF both the Democratic and
Republican parties will be asked to
