Chairman lrxiffi had net appeared. i Co!. Du Pont of Dflawaro strolled about the platform.

I Ja ud Plays. j Juft thri, lowcvf-r, ill band' played "America" and in the ton- j fusion of th- standing crowd, the i nolee from Delaware and the excite- I rncnt, failed to spread. I There was consUI rable parleying '

between the New York and Illinois delegations. Sen. Caldrr of Nrw York, con ferred at length with Sen. Sherman, Illinois, who has Just been elected national committeeman for that fctate. There was a lot rf traveling before Chairman Lodpe could bring the convention to order. Lodge's hammering continued for a. full minute before his voice could te heard. Starts With Prayer. The Rev. Johnson -Meyer of Chicago, delivered the invocation. The pension got away to a pood st.Trf nlthntii'Vi h.-ilf an hftnr lita

Lodpe firnt asked for order at D:5S; I at 9:39 the crowd was quiet, and at j 10 a. in., tho chaplain was in the' midst of his prayer. He prayed , that the republican platform mlirht i please tho Almighty and that the' choice of the convention for presi- '

dent might al.-o be the choice of God.

After the prayer, Chairman Lodpo ! recognized H. Hampton Moore, of j Pennsylvania, who offered a resolu- ! tion. The resolution provided that the convention record its .sense of J

inexpressible loss m the death of Theodore Itooseelt." It was offer

ed at this time because this is the t

first republican convention since1 Col. Roosevelt's death. The reading! was greeted with applause.

The cheering continued, so Ldge could not put the question. The noise died down and broke out again. Hour Nominations. Chairman Lodpe declared tho convention open for nominations. The roll of states bipan. Alabama passed and Arizona yielded o Kansas. There was a prat burst of cheering at this, several large flags wero produced and waved. "The slate of lüinsas!" aain cried Lodge. Oov. Allen came forward to nominate Gen. Wood. He received one yell of applause, thm th re was a peneral call for sib nee and Allen swung Into his address. Promts Wood's Case. Allen presented Wood's case like . man en leaped in a vigorous aruiiment with an Invisible oppontnt. Ther was enthusiasm In his every ptvt-tur and he cut rieht Into tho applause, not waiting for it to subside, in his Mpr mess to tell the delo. Kates why Wood should be the re

publican nominee. Allen held his' glasses in his riht hand, his manu-i Mcrlpt in his left and gesticulated , with both. I The first mention of Gen. Wood's'

name rassed almost unnoticed in the text of a letter praising him. It was mentioned by Allen twice more in the next minute, and each tim1 there was a burst of applause, e.u h a little louder than th one before. As Allen read Roosevelt"? praise of Wood, cheering broke out and continued until he niotimirj for silfnce. Tho cheering seemed to be generally distributed among all the delegates but it did not Involve all of them by any means. Many s-at silent. The perspiration streamed down Allen's f.ic, his voice prew husky, but he wr.xed more enthusiastic as h talked. .Mien Heroines Dramatic. Allen clinched h glasses in his f.st. which he shook out over the crowd as he pounded h:s points for Wood. "Some object to him because of his uniform." h" said. "Ah-h! When did the uniform become an emblem of disqualification in this country'."' He lu'.med great Americans whc have worn the uniform, from Washington to Roosevelt, and Roosevelt's rain got the greatest cheer of all. The crowd rr w rosier as Allen talked and It seemed as if most of the r.oise was coming from the tloor. Cries of "Good!" and a loner, r.asal blast on a tin horn resulted when Allen defended Wood against thoo who call him a militarist. Wo-d. Allen dominated the troaMea labor situation at Gary. Ir.d , with justice and "brought back to men their faith In government. Allen was so overheated and per?pir!ng his clashes would hardly stick to h'.s r.o?. He had. to hold them in

voiced horns honked in the rnidst of it. It appeared that they were scattered throughout the crowd. As Alb-n concluded. demanding the nomination of Wood, a mighty 5'ell w nt up. Showers of many colored Wood feathers fluttered down from the roof in a veritable storm. Wool pennants' appeared throughcut the crowd. The whole s-erie was flooded with the glare of arc lamps, whii the movies were taken. Repeated blasts- from horr.s sounded in the galleries. Hundreds of delegate wepe on their chairs. The rain of feathers continued for several minutes. Kvid ntly baskets of them had been concealed in the girders. Ihdcgatr Krtain Sk-at. Tiie delegations In the center of th hall, including Michigan, Iowa New York, Massachusetts, Illinois. P r.nsvlvania, h!o. and most of New Jersey remained seated. During tho excitement. I'rank Hitchcock, one of the Wood managers, appeared fin the platform. He carried a blue feathrr. He was r.ervous and constantly licked ills lips as he i aeed back and forth. Huring the Wood demonstration, miry delegates from Arizona, N".-v Merieo. Tennessee and New I-'ngla'id were on their feet. The Kansas dejecation and the N'eteraskn r.s were doing much, of the che ring. The Wood boosters kept the ovation vroin. chanting in unison. "Wood. Wood, Wood," when it showed sans of losing any of its

strength. The hand-beuan playing, j Only an occasional note could be

heard. Shrill whistles cut through the ro-ir of cheers. Lodge gave up his effort to restore order and went back to his scat. The Wood procession had dPIieulty getting nil tangled up in the aisles, as tributary streams of deb gates poured into It at the corners. Woman In lane. Mrs. I'osseen of Minnesota, wan the one woman in the procession when it started. South Dakota's standard wriF jerked from its post and carried into the procession. The Kansas standard came next, and former Lieut. Gov Morgan carried it. At 10:47 o'clock the demonstration had continued 15 minute, and was still going strong. Stage Profession. Around and around the Coliseum the procession shouldered its way In the middle of the delecates section, many stood on chairs watching but net paiticipating. The chant "Wood. Wood. Wood." was started in the gallery and spread to the floor, which came in steady beats that seemed to jar the

building. Only the top portion standards got Into the it was discovered the been securely fastened

and could not bo uprooted. At 10:41) Lodue again pounded for order. His reply was a renewal of the Wood chant. "We want Wood' was the next chant started, but it failed to make much impression. Respite valiant efforts to keep it poinp, the demonstration showed increasing signs of fading out. There w as still a steady vnler-current of sound but it was being kept up by a comparative few. Chairman Lodge sat at his desk with a resinned look, waiting patiently for the noise to cease, hin repeated efforts to net some attention having failed. The Wood adherents had kept up their clangor for 2." minutes when 10:37 o'clock came. The sound, however, had dribbled away and win manifestly beinn kept up by main strength. Delegat" Ilorcal.

Many of those, who took part in the original outburst had returned to their places, and bat mopping their faces and fanning themselves The Oklahoma dticgatlou ttaged a little circus of its own. A pntty girl in a pink dress appeared among the Oklahoma delegates and mounted a chair, waving Lowden lithograph and shouting. Illinois and Iowa delegates applauded htT and tthouted encouragement, almost drowning out for the moment the "dwindling Wood cheers. The young lady who starred wiüi the UKtai.o.t.a delegation waa Dorotny Lisr.et. lb. daughter of L. G. Risriet, delegate from Muskogee. Okla.

At 11:11 a. m. alUr it hd contlaucd 39 minutes, tne Wood demonstration ended. Chairman Lodge then asked lor feecouds to the Wood nomination. He announced each seconding fcpeech would be llmiteu to live minutes each. Delegate Knox of New Hampshire took the rostfum and began a teccnuirxg speech for Wood. Knox feaid that, sjeakinjf in behalf of the people of New Hampshire, he desired to second Wood a nomination betiauae he was the "greatest living son ot that state." lie n'condcd Wood as "'a citizen of the whole. United Slates."" He has provincial qualities. lnox said, lie said Wood had the cot' rage and vision to meet the present critical situation. Another seconding speech was made by Mrs. Corinne Rooseveli Robinson. New York, sister of Theodore Roosevelt. It was the first time a woman had made a seconding speech in a national convention. Siie was received with generous applause. As she ended, she cried "Leonard Wood is the kind of a man who says 'Come,' and I want Leonard Wood." and there was a pause of emphasis between each word and so vigor: oubly did she pound the table that it rocked. A hue life-size photograph of Wood standing with Roosevelt was lowered from the gallery. The Lmden SihivIi. Lodge ordered the roll call of ttates resumed. Arkansas yielded to Illinois, and Congressman Rodenburg began his speech nominating-Lowden. Immediately the Arkansas delegation displayed photographs of Lowden. There was so much confusion Lodge had to beat for order befoTe Rodenburg could begin. Rodenburg, a tall, heavy set man, spoke in a calm, dispassionate fashion, his finder tips pressed together. Describing the conditions of unrest which he said existed in the country, however, he began using a few gestures but they were restrainetl and he appeared reserved in contrast with the vigorous, emphatic demeanor of Gov. Allen and Mrs. Roosevelt Robinson, who preceded him. Rodenburg stood on his tip toes as he vocled the praise of Lowden. ijdfdnpr his clenched fists on hih to prnv that "God will speed the day when a belter and a braver pilot will be placed at the nation's helm," Careful attention was given to Rodenburg's addrtss. and there was at first little res-ponse. Upon tho conclusion of Rodenburg's speech the delegate section was suddenly filled with turtle posters bearing Lowden's picture.
