At Dawn
(Continued From First Page).
fixing the hour of convention at 10
a. to, instead of noon, and an agree-
ment was reached yesterday t6 the ef-
fect that the array of nominatinlt
tailed materially, so that only two
speeches would be made for each nom-
inee. The committee on resolutions
by continuing its session practically all
night in order to reach. as it did reach
just after 2 a. m., a final vote on the
platform, obviated any further recess
of the convention on account of tintin-
lshed committee work.
There were three major matters loft
to be disposed of when the convention
began the morning sessionwthe nomi-
nation for the presidency, the nomina-
tion for tbs vice-presidency, and the
adoption of the platform,
In point of general interest and pos-
sibility of lively developments. the last
is first. Nothing else has so .‘ivlded
sentiment among the delegates as we
proposed plank in the platform dealing
with the question of court procedure,
better known as the "Injunction
l’lank." The plank was finally adoiii-
ed in the form agreed upon by the sub-
committee oi’ the committee on rcso-
lutions after a meeting which began at
10 a. m. and lasted until dawn. Sonic
of those who opposed the injunction
plank in the committee served notice
that. if it was adopted they would con
tinue their opposition on the floor of
the convention. Not a few have do-
clured that they would vote on tho
convcniion floor against such a plank.
When the convention yesterday
adopted the report of tho committee
on credentials, it thereby confirmed
the already evident control of the
great body by the forces favorable to
the nomination of Secretary of War
William ll. Taft for the presidency.
The talk of a "Roosevelt stampede"
has steadily diminished during the
past 48 hours.
The. vice-presidential question was
still entirely unsettled when activities
began this morning. The confidence of
many that the close of the convention
would find Vice-President Fairbanks in
his old place on the ticket was decided;
ly shaken last night by the circula-
tion of a letter from hint to his cum-
palgn tutimiger, .loscph Ii. Kcallng, In
which he declared as “absolutely lrrc-
vocnhic“ his determination. announced
through Mr. Kcaling before the, close
of the last session of Congress nor to
he a candidate for renominutiou.

lloth in respect to temperature atul
political dcvclomncnl. the third day of
the Republican national convention
was warmer than any of its predeces-
sors.
The cool brcczcs of previous days
gart- place in thc early morning hours
to a high, hot wind from the southwcli
tl'mt sturtcd the mercury on a rapid
clltnb, and long before the opening of
thc. couvcniitm the delegates discarded
coats.
From the political view point the
Hon
speeches planned for should be cur- .'
.ALK
to the president and at the mention of
his having won so conspicuous a place
in the history of the world there was
applause, but no attempt at a demon—
strstlon.
The members of,the New York dele.
gstlon were provided today with silken
American flags, mounted on spearhead-
ed topustaii's of brass. They were de-
cldedly handsome.
Although senator Hopkins has a
clear resonant voice, the roar of con-
versation swelled steadily, and some
of the planks were not heard clearly
by the mass of delegates, or it it was.
it was disregarded. Not. a single hand-
c‘iap followed as Senator Hopkins fin-
ished reading the plank.
When the anti-injunction plank was
cached, the words] “integrity of the
courts," called forth applause,
Therewero cries of “No, no." when
the suggestion was made that neces-
sity existed for a change in the pres-
ent manner of issuing injunctions.
The conclusion of the plank was gett-
erously applauded.
The planks imtnedlately following
were given little attention.
The relerenco to the negro and the
reiteration 'of the party’s demand for
the enforcement. of the thirteenth.
fourteenth and fifteenth amendments
to the constitution called for brief ap-
plause. "
For a time the delegates on the floor
called for order in an effort to stop
the roar of conversation, which now
swelled from all quarters of the hall.
Sclmioi‘ lionklns also turned in an‘
appeal to the chair. Senator Lodge
pounded on the table, but his admoni-
tion was heeded for only a. few sec‘
ends, when the. hum of voices again
grow to the proportions that practi-
cnliy drowned the speaker‘s husky and
last falling voice.
The vigorous waving of fans by the
H.000 spectators and delegates in tho
colosium gave to the immense loving
picture, as vlmvcd front the stage, the.
fluttering effect of a kiutescopic flint
on exhibition.
Senator llopkius made another rip-
pcul to the chairman for a semblance
or order, and Senator Lodge again
wielded the gavel with some strength,
but the rapping was of little avail.
Delegates and speakers alike were
still lost In a discussion of the still-
luiunctlon plank, and scented to have
little concern for the other features
as outlined by the reader.
Senator llopki..s went steadily on
amidst the. din, and the reading of the
piniforin concluded at 11:16.
“I move the previous question on
the report I hate Just read and the
minority report which will be read by
Representative Cooper.”
-tt was Senator llopkins who spoke.
Kansas and Ohio seconded the mo-
tion, and it was put to a viva-vocc
vote, atid declared carried although
thcrc were many “Noon" raised in op-
position.
lttuircscntatlvv Cooper was greeted
with cheers from the. Wisconsin (Icic-
gutlon. None came from uity other d1.
rcction. ,
Chairman Lodge, before Mr. Cooper
began the reading of his report, an-
nounced that. the debate on the ques-
tion would be confined within forty
minutes. one-half to each side. Sena-
tor llopklns, he said, would hurt-
charge of the debate on the side of
warmth of the day was expected to
arise from it possible light on the floor
of ”iv convention over the nuil-inliinc-I
tion pinnk of the platform. ‘
'l‘hc delegates expecting a long. in-
icrcsiing anti physically uncomforta-
‘lil‘ session were slow in arriving at
the hall and fifteen minutes before lo,
o'clock the Imllcries were sparsely fill-l
cd although the gathering crowds on:
the outside gave a forecast of the
great, throng soon to come.
The Taft managers lit order to fully
conserve the interest of their candi-
date, early in the day placed on the
floor of tho convention. but not in the
capacity of either delegate or alternate
a number of the. most prominent men
in the party who are attached to the
'l‘uft candidacy. The dirty of these met 1
.wus to watch the work of the opposi
tion candidates. ,These men wert
Senators Fulton, of Oregon; Warren
of Wyoming; liurkett, of Nebraska:
bong. of Kansas; Borah, of Idaho; and
National Committee man Charles F
Brooker, of Connecticut: Powell, of
Arkansas, and l“. C. Duncan, of North
Carolina. .
Frank ll. Hitchcock. the Tull mans
gor, was also roaming around the con
ventlon,
At 10 o'clock the delegates‘ seats at
lust. began to fill and the gallery
crowds were becoming denser. Man?
of those In the sections reserved for
visitors brought lunch boxes, prepared
to spend the entire day if necessary.
Chas, P. Taft sat. in his seat as dele-
gate. at large in the front row of the
gallery, where Henry W. Taft, also a
brother of the war secretary, Mrs. Hen.
ry W. Taft, and Miss Taft, and Charles
I’. Taft, Jr. Senator Hopkins. of Hit
nois. chairman of the committee on
resolutions, arrived at 10:15 a. m.
Exactly at 10:17 a. m. Chairman
Lodge rapped the convention to order.
He introduced Rev. John Wesley Hill
of ew York City, who opened'the see
slon with prayer.
Senator Fulton, of Oregon, was rec-
ognized to introduce to the convention
George-ll. Williams, the last survivor
of President Grant's cabinet. Mr. Wil
home is a member of the Oregon dele-
gation, He was attorney general un
der President Grant and is now over
90 years of age. He was escorted to
the platform. Senator Hopkins re
ceived the recognition of the chair and
there was a wave of applause as he
stepped to the stage.
Representative Cooper. of Wiscon-
sin. who is to make a minority report
on the platform, also went to the stage
with a ripple of plaudits following
him, and Chairman Lodge formally
presented Senator Hopkins to the con.
vention.
"I am lnstructed.’ said Senator Hop-
kins, ‘_‘to present to the convention
l
"launder." the speaker was interrupt-
ed. .
“The following report——-"
“louder, louder," came the shouts as
Senator Hopkins began the first sen-
tences cf the platform.
“I can't go any louder," explained
Senator Hopkins, and continued to read
from typewritten manuscript. The
res or soon came to the first passage
the majority, and Representative Coop-
t-r for the minority.
"The minorily of the committee be-
lug unable to agree." began Represen-
tniivt- Cooper, "with the majority in
regard to thc tariff, the trusts, rall-
roads. Injunctions and trails in con-
tempt cases, has felt compelled to sub-
mit a minority report on these sub-
,iccts."
lien then read the long plank pro-
posed as a substitute to that offered
iii the reported platform. The substi-
tute cmbodlcd the La l-‘ollettc idea Of
a physical valuation of all railroads
as a basis for the fixing of rates. The
minority report favored the enlarge.
meat. of the powers of the interstate
commerce commissfon, and the cloth-
ing of it with authority of institutan
'iroceedinss on its own motion. It
was urged that the commission be
given the power to determine whether
an increase in rates should be allowed
when such increase is challenged. The
.ncrcase in the personnel of the com‘
mission, also, was urged. If neces-
sary, it was provided there should be
sub~couilliissi0ns to deal wttn contro
versles, an appeal being allowed to
the toll commission.
“We recommend,” continued Mr.
Cooper solid applause, "the enactment
)f a law requiring the inter-state coup
inerce commission to make an exact
inventory of the physical property of
I." railroads, such valuation to be
«node the basis of Just and reasonable
railroad rtes."
The trlff plank followed that on
railroads. It was declared that under
the present tariff the public is com-
polled to pay prices dictated by monop-
olies, and that the situation calls for
immediate remedy. It was asked that
duties upon imports should be made
equal only to the difference between
the cost of production home and
abroad. ‘
The demand was made for the ap-
pointment of a permanent tariff com-
:titttce to be appointed by the presi-
t on .
The demand was made for the onset
ment'of a law providing that any com-
bination for the purpose of stifling
competition and suppression of prices.
Imprisonment for violation of this law
was asked. The plank also contained
suggestions that a. like penalty be
made legal for violation of the Sher-
man anti-trust law.

lish front time to time “during the
