MINGER HARDING NOMINATED EY REPUBLICANS Governor Coolidge of Massa chusetts Named As His Running Mate CblctKo. Warren O. Harding, Uni ted Bute senator from Ohio, was nominated for the presidency Satur day by the republican national conven tion on the touth ballot, after a dead lock which had lasted for nine ballots. As his running mate, the convention named Governor Calvin Coolidge of Mamiachuiietti, upsetting a plan of a combination of the Harding backers to nominate for the place Senator Irvine U. Lenroot of Wisconsin. Cool ings was nominated by Wallace Mc Camant, Oregon. Harding Waa Dark Horse. Entering the convention as a candi date dlatlnctly of tbe "dark horse" class, Senator Harding got only 64 voles on the first ballot and on tbe second he dropped to 66. When the convention adjourned Friday night at the end of the fourth ballot he had II. In all.nlKlit conferences among tbe party chiefs, however, he waa men tioned many timea as the most likely to break tbe nomination deadlock should neither Wood, Lowden nor Johnson take a commanding lead Sat urday. They fulled to do so, Wood nd Lowden running a neck and nwk race for leadership on four ballots, while the strength of the California candidate dwindled steadily. Meantime Harding pushed bis total to 133, Individual delegates from many states swinging to him from the columns of the leaders and of various favorite sons. The Johnson managers, fearing a landslide was impending. then made a last play to save the Harding standard. It was reserved for Pennsylvania to add the crowning touch of enthusiasm. When the key stone state waa reached the Ohio senator needed 32 to nominate bim and Pennsylvania gave him SO. It was Governor Sproul blmaelf, the can didate of bis state on every preceding ballot and mentioned many times aa a poealble dark horse to break tbe dead lock, who announced the big Pennsyl vania vote for Harding. Entering tbe CoHaeum floor for the first time since the balloting began, be made his way to tbe Pennsylvania standard and amid cheers released the delegates from longer supporting blm. Then be took a poll, got the floor and threw In the winning Harding votes. Final Ballot Gives Harding "692. The final check up shewed 692 for Harding, with only 12 left supporting Lowden, 157 for Wood and 80 for John son. At their best, earlier In the day, the Wood people had mustered 312 votes and tbe Lowden forces 311. John eon's high point was 148, recorded third on the ballot Friday. The plan to nominate Senator Len root for tbe vice-presidency had the backing of many of the men who had helped put Harding over, but the name of Governor Coolidge stirred the delegates and galleries to repeated cheering and he was swept into sec ond place on tbe ticket before tbe first rolkall had gone two-tbirds of its length. Again it was Pennsylvania which furnished the winning votes. Governor Coolidge got 674 votes to 146 for Senator Lenroot and 68 for Governor Allen of Kansas. Several others got scattering support without being placed formally In nomination. Tbe result was greeted with another demonstration and there was renewed cheering. Organisation Made Permanent After tbe temporary organization headed by Senator Lodge aa chairman was made permanent the republican convention marked time during the WARREN G. HARDING Who Received the Republican Nomina tion for President at Chicago. fortunes of their candidate. They mov ed to recess fur a couple of hours in order to take an inventory and seek a new combination. The Wood and Lowden forces, both virtually at the peak of their strength but dishearten ed at the long string of ballots without material gains, fell in with the recess plan and the convention adopted it Succession of Conferences Held. In the dramatic succession of con ferences that followed, the fute of the candidates virtually was sealed. Some of the Wood and Lowden managers tried ineffectually for an agreement which would hold their delegates in line and kill oft the Harding boom. Some tried to get a Wood-Lowden-lohnson agreement to adjourn till Mon day without making a nomination. - It was the parleys between the Hard ing and Lowden meu, however, which apparently bore the most .fruit when the balloting began again, for Gover nor Lowden came to the convention during the ninth rollcall and, revers ing a previous plan to go before tbe convention itself, issued instructions from behind the scenes releasing bis instructed delegates. N Almost as soon as the alphabetical call of states began after the recess the ground swell for Harding demon strated that it could not be tore stalled. Connecticut, when her name was called, took 13 of her 14 'votes from Lowden and gave them to Har ding. Delegates Flock to Harding. Amid scene of rising enthusiasm other blocks of Lowden delegates fol lowed suit, while many of the routed Wood supporters also went Into tbe Harding camp. By the end of the rolloall Senator Harding had rolled up a total of 374, putting him far into the lead, and several score ot votes nearer the nomination than any can didate had been before. Lowden at the end ot the ninth had only 121 votes left out of the 307 with which he ended the eighth, and General Wood's strength had fallen from 298 on the eighth to 249 on the ninth. Johnson dropped from 87 to 82. As the 10th rollcall began delegates quit Xiowden, Wood and Johnson right and left, and the big hall was in al most continuous applause as state attar state announced accession to the CALVIN COOLIDGE Who Received the Republican Nomina tion for Vice-President at Chicago. early sessions while the leaders fought out the league of nations issue. Sev eral hours were whlled away with music, speeches and cheering before Senator Watson ot Indiana, chairman of the resolutions committee, brought In the platform. The real excitement commenced at the Colllseum Friday morning when the names ot aspiring Republican standard ,bearers were plr d before the convention in nomination. The big three Lowden, Johnson and Wood were placed in nomination be fore' the Republican convention dur ing the first four hours of a swelter ing session. Seconding Speeches Limited. Forcing the convention along at ex press speed to make up for the time lost in settlement of the treaty issue, efforts were made to hold the time given to demonstration down to a minimum. Seconding speeches were limited to five minutes, and to two minutes when there were more than two seconds. Major General Wood of New York was the first man whose name was put in nominationGovernor Henry J. Allen of Kansas formally presenting his name and describing the general as "the outstanding candidate iq tbe minds of the whole people." Representative William A. Roden berg of Illinois nominated Governor Lowden. x Johnson Speaker "Booed" Charles S. Wheeler of San Francisco made the nominating speech for Hiram Johnson. The first reference to campaign ex penditures brought a flurry, a roar of laughter and boos greeting a state ment of Mr. Wheeler referred to Sena tor Johnson's campaign fund aa "in adequate to meet legitimate needs." Former Governor of Ohio, Frank B. Willis, made the nominating speech Placing Warren B. Harding, the suc cessful candidate, In nomination.
