FBig Demonstration After Presentation
 of Woods Name

(Continued From Page One.) <Ator Lodge rapped hard many times ebefore he got the convention quieted down.
 By rising vote and in a roar of applause the convention then adopted q resolution offered by Alexander P. FMoore of Pittsburgh expressing "inex- presstble loss'' over the death of The Eodore Roosevelt, loved unutterably now and to be loved as long as our ! nation cherishes it's noble patriots" Senator Lodge announced amid more fcheers tha tthe time had come for the sconvention to hear nominations for the presidency. Alabama passed when the roll call of states began. Arizona yielded to Kansas.
 In a noisy demonstration Governor | Allen was escorted to the platform and began his speech nominating ! General Wood.
 [ Senator Lodge shook hands with 1 Governor Allen and the crowd cheer ed, waving Wood pennants. hats and ! handke CT chiefs.
 During Governor Aliens recital of General Woods record of public ser vice the Wood supporters interjected frequent cheers.
 When the governor made a thrust at William J. Bryan's celebrated dic- tum about million men springing to arms over night, he looked down at where MT. Bryan was sitting in the press box. But the Nebraskan had his nose to his manuscript, trying to write on industriously while plump woman writer was showing through the narrow aisle behind his chair. If he heard the reference be gave no indication of it.
 Governor Allen worked hard at his speech and his collar quickly wilted. While the speech was going on ar arrangements were made for Governor General Woods. Arkansas delegates next on the roll said the state would yield to Illinois.
 California, next in line. was to name Senator Johnson, disposing of the ''big three" ~
 At the concluding word of the nominating speech thousands of many -colored turkey feathers, which have been the convention badge of the ceiling of the Coliseum and foa.ted down over the cheering dele gates. The lights were turned on to give the photographers chance while many of those on the floor mounted chairs and waved Wood banners.
 Approximately 200 delegates, per- haps, were taking part in the cheering and flag waving. Many of those on the floor yelled like real Indians and they looked Indians with the hair of the women and the collars of the men decorated by the falling feathers.
 Its Wood, let's go," seemed to be the motif running through the confu- sion of. shouting. In one cornor a bunch of rooters kept up a continual tom-tom of igorrote Philippine music.
 1ofS ,Ic int ed on many of the blue and white banners waving over the Wood groups. When the demonstration had been on about 10 minutes the inevita- ble procession started. It was led by delegates from Minnesota and it start ed shaking it's ay~about the conven- tion hall just as Senator Lodge had come to the front of the platform and rapped for order. He went back again and sat down as the parade gathered momentum.
 It looked strange to many of the old timers to see women for the first time among the marchers. Changing their slogan, the circulating Wood people took up 'rWe want Wood" as their marching cry.
 California supplied flags to vari- ous friendly delegations to be waved in the interest of Johnson. The several delegates from Nebraska ia voraNle to Wood immediately com manGeered them when the procession started.
 The convention managers saw pros poets of a very long session when the demonstration went on and on. They guessed the supporters of the othe: candidates would try to outdo the Wood people with the result tha, ,balloting might be long delayed.
 When the noise makers had been at it for half an hour they were still going strong and the chairman was making no further attempt to pu on the lid.
