 There was a roar of approval from the delegates when Chairman Hays declared that the Republican party had met in free and open convention ito accept from the people a mandate for the government of the United States A second outburst came a moment later when he shouted there will be no bolt in this convention.'
 The appearance of Senator Lodge, who had been escorted to the stage from his place no the floor with the Massachusetts delegates, was the sig nal for the first real demonstration of the day. Crowds in the galleries stood as did the delegates, cheering and waving flags.

 Hays Given Ovation
 But as conventions go, it was tame, it seemed as if some of the factions felt that the ice was thin.
 Half an hour late in starting, the convention jumped quickly to its work. First came the national chairman, who received a roar of cheers from the Charles E. Woodcock of Louisville, Ky. whose opening prayer waited through sound amDlifiers, reached every part oi the hall.
 The crowd that had been reverently silent during the prayer, shuffled its feet and kept up a continuous rattle of talk while the secretary, in a droning tone, read the formal call for the meet ing. A little earlier it had roared with
