YER AFTER CONVENTION.

Chicago.-Former President Theo-
lore Roosevelt was nominated for
President on an independent ticket
Saturday night, in the dying hours OF
the Republican National convention
in which he had met defeat.
The followers of Col. Roosevelt gath
cred in Orchestra hall, less than a
mile from the Coliseum, and pledged
their support to the former President.
In accepting the nomination Col.
Roosevelt appealed to the people of all
sections, regardless of party affilia-
tons, to stand with the founders of the
new party. one of whose cardinal prin-
ciples, he said, was to be, Thou shalt
not steal
"Thou Shalt Not Steal" to Be Slogan.
The informal nomination of Col.
Roosevelt was said to be chiefly for
the purpose of effecting a temporary
organization. Beginning Immediately
the work OF organization will be
pushed forward rapidly, state by state.
Col. Roosevelt in accepting the NOM
nation told the delegates that he did
so on condition that they would return
to their homes. find out fully the senu-
ment and wishes of the people they
represented, and that they would
again assemble, at some other city.
and hold a national convention. when,
he said, he would step aside did tho
new party decide to declare for an
other standard bearer.
1t was said that in all probability
the convention of the new party would
| be held In Denver. Scores OF tele-
grams poured in on the Roosevelt lead
ers urging Denver for the meeting
place, and it was the universal senti-
| ment among the delegates that that
city would get the first convention OF
the new party.
A speech nominating Col. Roosevelt
was made by Comptroller w. A. Prem
dergast of New York. who was to have
pressed the coloners name to the bolt
ed convention.
