They met. and sang and cheered for a

show of spirit into 1t which has made
the progressive convention a genuine
outburst for Theodore Roosevelt. And
while they were singing and mingling
hymns with 1ingling campaign songs.

idolize as the leader was about to
crush their political lives forever. or
raise them to the highest heaven of
delight by accepting their demands for
leadership.

Waiting for Third Ballot.
The colonel indicated that he might
have a statement to make after the
third ballot is taken by the republicans.
Meanwhile the impression appeared to
be growing hourly here that he will be-
come the candidate Of the progressives
IL the republicans do not decide upon
him. While he has issued no written
or spoken word to indicate what he
will do, those in his confidence assert
that he feels keenly what he character
ICES as a failure by the republicans to
come out strongly against the. pro Ger
man element.
Another problem which the colonel
was wrestling with early today was the
possibility that he would be unable to
from nominating him before the re-
publicans resumed balloting.
He exacted a pledge from the pro-
gressives last night not to nominate
this forenoon that they would hold of
until the republican situation shaped
up today.
Col Roosevelt said that at about 5
o'clock this morning he was notified
by the progressive conferees that they
had come to no conclusion with the
republican conferees and that the re-
publican conferees had again asked
IOT any suggestion OF name
candidate from the progressive con-
ferees.
Duty to Present Alternative.
He then wrote the progressive con-
ferees stating that he deeply approved
their loyalty to him. and their efforts
to get him nominated. but that he
thought the time had come when, car
rying out the spirit of the statement
of the progressive national committee
in January and the statement made
by him in Trinidad in February. 1t was
their duty to present an alternative
name on which he hoped the republi-
cans and progressives could unite.
Continuing, Col.i Roosevelt said he
presented the name of Henry Cabot
Lodge. He quoted the three para
graphs of his telegram to former Sena-
tor w. B. Jackson of Maryland of day
before yesterday.
In his letter he stated that Mr.. Lodge
had been member of the lower house
of Congress and of the Senate of the
United States for thirty years: that he
was a man of the highest integrity,
great r-sightedness and of wide
vision as to national needs; that he
had been twenty years on the foreign
affairs committee of the Senate and
had taken part in the most important
negotiations. being. for example, a

Shouting in the Galleries.
The galleries shouted till the shout
ers were hoarse; a few scattered dele
gates stood in their chairs and en-
couraged the uproar. The great body
of delegates and alternates sat in their
chairs and waited for order. Some Of
them chewed gum. others chewed to-
bacco. Most of them looked as il their
minds were mainly centered upon a
chance to give two bits for a sandwich.
Immediately after adjournment the
allies rushed forth in glee to hold a
conference to the end of framing up a
combination to stave OFF the nomina-
ton of Mr.. Hughes on the first bal
lot today They had previously claimed
that II they could hold him through
the second ballot he was a goner. The
second ballot passed. but his prospects
did not go. The Hughes men were con-
ndent of today. We will give you
two try-outs Saturday. II you want
them" they said to the allies. feeling
secure that each succeeding ballot
would swell the anthem of glorifca-
tion TO Hughes
Night Hours Dramatic.
The next few hours were dramatic.

the restaurants and snatched such food

Tho leaders OF the allies went into

Shortly before o'clock this morn
