the chairman directed toward the dele-
gates in the center aisle brought the
convention to order.
Chairman Root then introduced Rev
Thomas E. Cox, of the Holy Name
Cathedral. of Chicago, who delivered
the invocation.
“Is the committee on credentials
ready to report?" asked the chairman.
Senator McCon‘Ins, chairman of the
committee on credentials, rose from his
seat in the Maryland delegation attd
said:
“Mr, Chairman: The committee on
credentials has instructed me to read
the report which is now ready."
“The gentleman will please take the
platform," said the chairman, and Sen-
ator McComas, mounting the rostrum.
proceeded to read the report.
The ilrs. part of the document relat-
ed to those contests in which the ac-
tion of the National commitee was up-
held, The report III this connection
was received with a ripple of applause,
which was slightly accentuated when
the decision placing both the “Lily
Whites" and “Black and Tons" of
Louisiana was read.
An outburst of cheers greeted the un-
nouncement that the credentials com-
mittee had decided In favor of the
"Stalwart" faction in Wisconsin. The
name of each delegate at large was
greeted with cordial applause when it
was pronounced by Senator McComas.
The statement of the committee giv-
ing Its reasons for Its decision on the
Wisconsin case was heard In complete
silence, the convention showing in-
tense Inilsrcst in the report In this par-
ticulnr.
Although the doors of the hall were
opened a half hour later than yester~
day for the first twenty—five minutes
after: 11 o‘clock, the band played to a
sprinkling of gallery spectators only.
Yesterday a huge bunch of pink peo-
niea greeted the chairman's table, but
today a superb cluster of American
Beauty roses stood ready to greet Mr.
Cannon when he assumed the chair.
The huge portrait of President
Roosevelt that had served to present a
tableau by its dramatic unveiling dur-
ing Mr. Root's speech yesterday, was
placed on an easel 'at the right of the
platform.
By a quarter of twelve o'clock not
more than one hundred delegates were
in their seats. and not a single national
figure had made his appearance.
It was just been when Mr. Root went
on the platform, which he obtained by
the rear entrance. Screened by the
groups of convention officers and oth-
ers, he was not seen by the crowd.
The hum of conversation as the Col-
iseum gradually filled, had not been
broken by enthusiasm of any charac-
ter for some time, the aisles in the
pit were crowded with standing dele-
gates, only a portion of the seats be-
lng occupied, When, just at noon, the
two New York senators and Governor
Odell threaded their way down the
center aisle. A cheer went up and
the galleries facing the main entrance
began to applaud. This had hardly
died out when the tnlI.figure of Sena-
tor Fairbanks was caught sight of
coming down the‘ aisle to the left. A
hearty cheer went up In that section of
the hall. )
Just before too convention was call-
ed to order, Senator Depew, of New
York, said to The Associated Press
that he would. as soon as the platform
was read, move to continue the ses-
sion tonight or late this afternoon, and
conclude the business of the conven-
tion. He said: “I have plenty of
support from other states. The oele-
gations are all here in full force. 'i‘q-
morrow they will not be, We must
finish today."
When Mr. Cannon was asked about
the proposition to adjourn he said he
would recognize any motion made in
the convention, but that no agreement
concerning the proposal had been
made. It would rest with the conven-
tion, he said.
Chairman Payne, of the National
commutes, Temporary Chairman Root
and Senator Lodge, of the resolutions
committee, with the platform in his in-
side pocket, held an informal confer-
ence on the platform. Everything for
the day’s program in the way» of com-
mittee reports, was In readiness.
At 12:15 the playing of the National
air brought the whole assemblage to
Its feet, silk flags were whipped out in
various parts of the hall, and were
waved in time with the music. The
band continued to enliven things at in
tervals as the wait continued. Mean-
while the gallery seats were being tak-
en to a greater extent than on the pre- .
vions day.
The appearance at, 12:30 of Senators
Flatt and Depew at head of the New
York delegation evoked the first out.
burst of cheering. Senator Fairbanks’
appearance caused another outburst.
Senator Depew said he would make
a motion to proceed with nominations

"I may be wrong," said the woman
with the broom and pull, us she begun
her work in the corridor of the Trees-

some of these cigarette smokers would

Then, with snapping eyes and flushed
checks, the really hard-worked em-
ployee of Uncle Sam began her work
of cleaning tip, and as the writer look-
ed around he could see the "blazed"
way on every hand, evidence that the
match striker had been there beforew
the cabalistic brown tracks were every-
where visible, on the side of the walls,

Outside the marble building the
match-striker guild had blazed the
way—«In letter boxes, lump posts, sides
of buildings, door jambs, tree boxes——
everywhere the. eye rested the brown
marks could be seen. Armed with a
cigarette and a match, any old place
is good enough to make the friction.
Even church edifices are not. too so-

for a light; lb fact, there Is no place

It Is a curious fact, however, that the
habit once so extremely and univer-
sally indulged in—striking a match by
drawing It across the gabel end of the
