At bismarck today Mr.. Wilson spoke
in the city auditorium. the smallest
hall in which he has appeared during
his trip 1t holds about 1890 and
was filled SO solicitous were the local
officials TO guard against overcrowdng
and confusion that once the President
was inside they locked the doors and
refused to open them for any purpose
whatever. until the address was over.
AS a result the chief Of police Of Bis
marck. Edmund w. Startling, the as
sistant chief of the secret service with
the Presidents party. and the chair
man OF the local committee on arrange
ments were among those absent from
the meeting.
The committee secretary taking sta
ton at the stage door, treated i'm
partially all requests that the door he
opened. but finally the police chief and
Mr.. Startling broke into the hall
through cellar window. Another
result was that no newspaper dis
patches were released from the build
ing until MIR. Wilson had completed his
address.
