Reservations ' were made yesterday by the hotel men , for hundreds of per sons Who are en route to Portland. Many of these requests for reservations were answered but for the great majority the hotel keepers 'were unable to do anything. It - is a question of first come, first served, with the hotel men, for : they- say they - can't discriminate Against any one. But the hotel keepers promise that those who will not be able to get ao commodatlons In the hotels will - be properly cared for in rooming houses and in private homes. All of the hotels have a list of available rooms and have asked through-the newspapers that all who have rooms for rent-leave their addresses. : -Managers of hotels say they feel confident everyone will be properly cared for. Some of the hotel people estimated yesterday that 50,000 visitors are al ready In the city, and the presence of strangers on the streets during the aft ernoon and evening- hours waa specially noticeable. Last night visitors began coming from the Puget sound and in terior cities of eastern Washington and Oregon and from Idaho and Utah and even California. ; However, the great majority took the precaution to make reservations or arrange for accommo datlons before departing from their homes.

He exerted himself, however, and shouted at the big crowd for over half an hour. .While he was speaking - the excitement '' and heat caused two men In the crowd to faint, The president said in part: ' "This meeting is not-a partisan meet lng.
