Chairman Root. when some semblance
Of quiet had been secured, introduced the
Rev. John Wesley Hill of New York,
who opened the proceedings with prayer.
AS he concluded some one in the gallery
yelled "Toot, toot" and there was much
laughter.
The first report presented from the
committee on credentials recommended
the seating Of the Mississippi Taft dele
gates-at-large.
When the reading was concluded the
gallery crowd shouted. THE ayes

The good nature which prevailed all of
yesterday afternoon was again evident
The Roosevelt people presented mi

Taft delegates were seated viva voce.
Amid chorus ''toot. toots'' and "choo

the contest in the Second district of
Mississippi was read. The report char

There was no minority report and the
vote was taken without delay, Chairman
Root announcing the seating of the Taft
delegates. The same procedure seated two
Taft delegates in the Fifth, Sixth and
Seventh Mississippi districts.
As the result of each vote was an
