Chicago, Aug. 6.--Songsi and party
yelIs whiled away the time at the ma
tional Progressive convention today
after the delegates had assembled and
while they were waiting to be called
TO order. Occasionally there came the
long, low "moo" OF the bull moose.
The women delegates in various state
organizations stood up on chairs with
the men and joined in the cheers and
songs that kept things in an uproar
until the gaveI fell. Suddenly the
Colorado folk spraDg big sign and
carried it about the hall. 1t read
"No more Guggenheim; no more
| Devine; no more Angel Archie for
US. Down with the bosses. :"
The Coloradoans explained that by
l"AngeI Archie" was meant A. M.
Stevenson Of that state sometimes
known as "Big Steve"
Michigan delegates started new
song, which soon was caught up by
the other delegations until practically
the entire floor was singing. This is
the way it went:
Follow, follow,
We will follow Roosevelt,
Anywhere, everywhere,
We will follow on
At 1895 Senator Dixon interrupted
the singing by rapping for order
Chairman Beverage caused to be
read telegram from Colonel William
r. Nelson, Of the Kansas City Star.
1t was dated Magnolia, Miss, and
was as follows:

cannot help but feel what a narrow
escape we had in the June convention.
Roosevelt might have been nominated
there. My congratulations to every
body and regret that cannot be with
you"
Wild applause followed the reading.
1t was IL al when Chairman Bever-
idge announced the arrival of Colonel
Roosevelt at the Coliseum. Delegates
and the gsileAes jumped to their feet
and cheered. A minute later the
Colonel appeared on the stage, almos
