report of the credentials committee
would be taken up late today prior
to the establishment Of permanent or
ganization, and after Colonel Roose-
welt delivered his address.
Then, according to plans OF leaders,
former United States Senator Albert
J. Beveridge Of Indiana would be Sc
Tlected permanent chairman as was
done in the case OF Elihu Root In the
republican national convention. Judge
Ben B. Lindsey OF Denver was chosen
for permanent chairman, but Is said
to have asked to be relieved because
of Ill health.
The rules committee Of the conven-
ton adopted the suggestion Of Colonel
Roosevelt that the basis Of represen-
tation in future progressive conven-
tions be changed. The new rules pro-
vide that one delegate be named Tor
each congressman and senator ana
one additional delegate to be chosen
for each 10000 votes cast for the pro-
gressive party in the last previous
election.
The resolutions committee worked
on the platform until a late hour last

ties Of planks and discussing the plat
form in an executive session. Today
it was expected that subcommittee
Of seven members would be appoint

as follows:

a narrow escape we had in the June

Wild applause followed the read

been read the entire audience rose
and sang America" under the lead
ership of a musical director, James

most earnest in the cheers.

getting the band and the singers to-

a success. It was 12:47 when Chair

and the hall was fined to capacity In
The midst OF the deafening din the
