 CONVENTION SUMMARY

CHICAGO, June 9.-Keeping faith with the promise implied, in the agreement reached by the Republican and Progress i've harmony conference, both conventions today did just what they were expected to do. Notwithstanding predictions and prophecies that one of the other would get out of hand or do something surprising. noth- ing unexpected happened. The Republicans met. listened to nominating speeches, took the two promised ballots without a nomination and adjourned until II o'clock tomorrow morning.
 The Progressives met an hour before and, well in hand, followed the program laid down by the managers. They debated the platform, kept tab on the Coliseum, listened to the efforts of their best orators and when word came that the Republicans had adjourned without making a nomination they adjourned until 10:30 to- morrow morning.
