RESUME OF
NOMINATIONS
AT CHICAGO
Especial by Unit,.d Press)

spial by
Coliseum, Chicago, June l1-After adopting
resolutions expressing great loss in the death of
Theodore Roosevelt, nominations opened.
In the roll call Of states Alabama passed and
Arizona yielded to Kansas.
Governor Allen of Kansas nominated Wood.
Allen quoted from Roosevelt, Elihu Root and
others, 70 prove how highly Woods admins
tration.as governor of Cuba was regarded. He
also referred to Woods foresight and initiative
in warning America to prepare during the world
war. He also touched upon Woods prompt as
sumption of control in strike and race disorders
"Wood won't create for himself neutral
back ground of mediocre mem if elected" Allen
promised. He presented Wood "as the man who
fits the hour"
As Allen concluded mighty yell went up
and baskets of Woods feathers which were con-
cealed in the girders were emptied over the
heads of the delegates in a storm. The movies
went into action under the glare of their arc
lights and Woods boosters kept an ovation go
ing and chanting, 'Wood, Wood, Wood" The
band could hardly be heard for the violence of
cheering clattering of pans, footing of horns and
other noises.
A Wood procession started around the hall.
Chairman Lodge was unable to restore order.
South Dakota and Kansas delegates led the pro-

creased. At ten forty-seven the demonstration
had continued fifteen minutes and was still go
ing strong, and at the half hour mark, at two
minutes past eleven most of the enthusiasm had
waned and the galleries were furnishing most
of the noise.
The Oklahoma delegation staged Lowden
demonstration as the Wood cheering subsided.
A pretty girl in a pink dress appeared among
the Oklahoma delegates, mounted chair,
waved Lowden lithograph and shouted. The
Illinois and Iowa delegates applauded SC as to
almost drown the dwindling Wood cheers.
New York. Pennsylvania, Ohio and many
other delegations remained stolidily seated, and
Lodge waited patiently for the noise to cease.
Delegate Knox of New Hampshire in a Sec
oncing speech said that Wood was the greatest
living son Of New Hampshire and that he had
the courage and the vision to meet the present
critical situation.
Mrs. Carinne Roosevelt Robinson of New
York, sister of Theodore Roosevelt, also Sec
onded Woods nomination. This is the first time
that woman has made a nominating speech

GOMPERs CONDEMNS
G. o. P. LABOR PLANK
Especial by United Press)


Montreal, June 11-President
Gompers of the American Fedora
tion of Labor condemned the repab-
lican labor plank "as directly con-
trary to what labor asked" and re-
ferred particularly to the portion
endorsing the settlement Of strikes
in public utilities by boards similar
to the board created under the Esch-
Cummins railroad bill.
Montreal, June 12-Gompers vir-
tually black listed the republican
party in his special report to the
American Federation of Labor con-
vention. "The republican conven-
ton turned its back upon labor"
charged Gompers, "And the repub-
lican party is defiant in defense of
labor's enemies. The platform is
silent on many of labor's demands
that were put before the resolutions
committee. The planks on strikes
are n denial of freedom and sub
versive of the republics best inter
ests." Gompers said the federation
will direct its political strength
against the republican candidate for

the Mexican plank as clearly intend

at republican national convention. She said
that Thousands of American mothers felt that
Woods foresight sent their sons over seas as
fit fighting machines instead of common cannon
fodder.
Hugh life size photographs of Wood standing
with Roosevelt were lowered from the galleries
as she ended her speech.
When the roll call of states was resumed Ar
kansas gave way to Illinois, and Congressman
Rodenberg nominated Governor Lowden. Rod
enberg voiced praise of Lowden, praying "God
speed the day when better pilot will be placed
at the nations helm." Upon the conclusion of
his speech the delegates section was filled with
large posters bearing Lowden's picture. Low
den adherents crowed into the aisles at eleven
forty-one for their demonstration. In one part
Of the procession girl waving Lowden's picture
was carried on the shoulders of two men, and
along the aisles stood cheer leaders encouraging
demonstrations. State sign posts from Iowa,
Connecticut and Oklahoma delegates appeared
in the procession and Virginia and Arkansas
standards followed. "First ballot, first ballot"
shouted the Lowden men.
The Lowden demonstration lasted forty-two
minutes. Congressman Bascom c. Slemp of
Virginia and National Committeeman Warren
of Michigan, at the height of the Lowden demon
mated before the day was over. Henry Crane
predicted that there would be few ballots taken.
Convention officials plan to keep the conven-
ticn in session continuously until the nominee is
chosen. Former Senator Beverage took the
gavel while Lodge was at lunch.
From Poindexter's headquarters comes the in
formation that Poindexter plans to swing his
support to Wood first, and if Wood fails to get
the necessary votes to land the nomination, he
will then support Harding.
Charles E. Pickett of Iowa seconded Low
den's nomination and was followed by Mrs. Flet-
cher Dobyns of Illinois, and then an additional
seconding speech for Lowden by Governor Nor
row of Kentucky.
1t is reported that Senator johnson left his
headquarters for the coliseum but doesn't intend
appearing in the delegate section on the floor.
Charles S. Wheeler # California nominated
Johnson. When Wheeler predicted that the
nomination Of johnson would assure victory
there was only scattering applause, and when he
said that johnson. had won great victories with
cut big financial backing there was a chorus of
laughs, boos, Kisses and repeated interruptions.
During Wheelers speech was the first indication
of animosity toward any candidates name.
When Wheeler, ruffled by interruptions, devi-
ated from his set speech and shouted, "The time
has come to drive the bosses from this temple
of republicanism," hoots and jeers from the DEL
egates swept the hall. Wheeler concluded at
one sixteen. The California delegation began

What He Has Got-Bout to Be
Staged at Jersey City.

Jersey City, n. j., Oct. l2.-Georges
Carpenter, French war hero and Eu
ropean heavyweight boxing tonight
will engage in l2.round bout with
Battling Levinsky, American light,
heavyweight title holder Under New
Jersey law no decision can be per
mitted.
The contest, regarded as tryout for
the French boxer to determine whether
he would make q suitable opponent
for Jack Dempsey, worlds champion,
will be held in the open air in the
Jersey City baseball park. Fair, mild
weather is forecast.
Both men are clever boxers but the
Frenchman is credited with possessing
the stronger punch, having scored spec
tacnlar one-round knockouts over two
English champions, Bombardier Wells
and Joe Beckett. Equal in height, the
two boxers are also expected to weigh
about the same probably slightly un-
der IT'S pounds The American has a
slight advantage in reach.
Ted Kid Lewis, European welter-
weight champion, and Marcel Thomas,
holder of the French welterweight
title, will meet in a ix.round prelimi-
nary bout.
