Crowd Wild With Enthusiasm

Waiving of Banners, Flags, Hats, Given in (By Associated Press.) Chicago, 111., June 23. The Republican national convention met at 10 o'clock with the expectation of adjourning in time for' the afternoon trains. The promise of a field day for the orators caused an early rush ofr places in the convention hall. Many delegates packed bags and left thorn in the office of the sergeant-at-arms in cyder to get from the hall t othe trains. Senators Penew, Cullom and Spooner hav had their gold badges, worth $23, stolen from their oeats in crowds. Public interest in the nomination speeches was shown by the great demand for admission to the gallery. Half an lour before ten there were more visitors present than at all pre vious sessions combined. Pelegates came in promptly, many bearing flags to be used for popular demonstration. Senafor Foraker, though defeated yesterday in his attempt to get more representation from Hawaii, was one of the early arrivals and seemed well pleased as if he had gotten more than he asked. A hurried conference of the leaders resulted in an agreement that Alabama, when first called should give way to New York to present the name of Roosevelt and similarly for viee president New York should give way. Shortly before 10 o'clock the New York delegation entered bearing bundles of flags. Senator Beverdige and Governor Pnrbin wore he first delegates from Indiana. Secretary Cortelyou arrived before 10 and took his place on the platform. He was greeted by members of the new National committee. Cheers greeted the arrival of Chairman Cannon, the band pliiyed national hymns, the convention rose and the New York delegation waved its flags, At 10:30 the convention was called tp order. Rev. Sniveley led th convention in prayer, as follows: "Almighty God, our Heavenly Father, Infinite, Eternal, of all mankind with profound reverence we acknowledge Thee as the source of life and sti-ength, the Great Invisible One who speaks to us through this wonderful Universe of which no man so marvelous is but one of Thy numI berless works of wonder, and confess I Thee as the giver of life and light j a ndevery good and perfect gift. "Gathered here as children of this great and wonderful country, where man has drawn near to Thee, we beseech Thee to be with us in loving benediction and guide us in our thoughts and words and deeds As citizens of this land of privilege and freedom to all, we pray for our country the dear land for which our fathers fought in the long strife for freedom for all. By Thy gracious help, it is the land of the free and the home of the brave. We pray that Thou wilt guide us ever by Thy power which makes us strong to battle for the truth and honor and noble principle. "We beseech Thee to give to our whole nation the strong desire and puropse to uphold law and order and to seek noble character and true integrity as the most sublime achievements of the race, far greater and more precious than riches or mighty conquests. Grant, we pray Thee that the benumbing touch of material possessions and the list of power may never blind us to the true greatness of moral advancement. Help us to remember that the fathers of this land and government were patriotic of never-dying fame, because they believed that poverty and defeat with unsullied honor are far better than vast wealth and worldwide influence purchased at the cost of shame and dishonor. We beseech Thee, O Thou God of love and peace to keep

May that feeling of love and oneness with all mankind grow stronger year by year. "Help us to keep down selfishness and bitterness; and by Thy tender grace make stronger the sense of dependence upon Thee and of duty to all mankind. "In this seed time of the year, Ave pray Thee to bless the harvest. Send Thy blessing upon the multitudes who workupon the rich lands. May abundant crops be the reward of the husbandman, whose labors make possible the feeding of the vast multitude&of Thy children, abundant increjr ijspf grain and fruits to keep in busfilnbvement the mighty engines of comftierce and the looms and machiniof human industry; that thus huujfin; idleness and want may be kep&far away, from our people and prosper ity?IlT" within our country. 'Our Heavenly Father, whose kingdom is everlasting and power infinite, we pray Thee to send Thy blessing upon all our country and all our people, especially upon all those on whom authority and the execution of the laws rest, upon the President of the United States, upon the governors of all the commonwealths which make this a land of many States, upon the congress of the Nation, and upon the Legislature of the different States, and upon all who occupy places of trust and responsibility, that they knowing whose ministers we are, may above all things seek Thy honor and glory. "Wilt Thou grant, then Thy grace that they may always incline to Thy will and walk in Thy way. "And may all the people duly considering that it is Thy authority that they hear, faithfully and obediently hnoor them and aid them in guarding the highest standards of uprightness and integrity and unselfish patriotism. "Upon this great multitude here gathered, we ask Thy blessing. Keep before us, we pray Thee, high motives and lofty aim and grant, in Thy in finite goodness, that this convention may have its part in holding aloft the highest ideals and most glorious standards of true citizenship. Wilt Thou so direct their deliberations that only high influences may have sway, and that the best results for our dear country mav be advanced by their work; that thus they may do 1 their part in helping to the ordering 'and settling of all things upon the surest foundations that peace and happiness, truth and justice, religion and piety, may be established among us for all generations. "Finally we pray for all the people of this land, that Thou wouldst direct us, O Lord, in all our doings with Thy most gracious favor and further us with Thy continual help; that in all our work to be continued, and ended in Thee, we may glorify Thy Holy Name, and finally; by Thy mercy, obtain everrlasting life through Him who hast taught us to say : " 'Our Father, who art in Heaven, hallowed by Thy name.
