Currency Byitem Changing. "The national currency is no longer adapted to our changed conditions. For the solution of this Question the Re publican party established a monetary commission, which haa reported a bill for the establishment of a new system of reserve associations under which the currency will be elastic; the people at large will exercise control instead of a little group of large bankers and the dangers of panic will disappear. The president lias recommended the conclusions of the committee to the con gress, where the proposed bill Is under consideration.

With the announcement of the Root victory the Taft men started another cheering demonstration. They clambered on to chairs and waved hats ami sticks in the air.

Besides wearing a badge, he Is not required to do any assisting. In fact, the aisle in which Kermit as signed himself was so crowded today with constructive sergeants that the police ordered half of them out. The ex-president's son finally got a seat on the floor. Bob and Bill La Follette, the 14 and 16-year-old sons of Wisconsin's candi date, are booming their father by dis tributing red La Follette hat bands to everybody , who Is willing to wear them. Edison Man Oinohea Root. Patrick llolleran of Edison, Wash., "elected "Senator Root as temporary chairman," his being the 640th vote cast for the New Yorker the last vote Root needed to cinch his Job. Prisoners of war literally are the bandsmen in the Coliseum, perched 100 feet above the crowds In a swinging balcony, up near the roof. They play until the convention convenes, and then sit idle until the adjournment. When Victor Rosewater, chairman of the national committee, presented his gael to t'enator Root, temporary chair man, the diminutive engineer of the steam rolter retired permanently from active duty, lie is ousted from the committee by R. li. Howell of Omaha, and takes a back seat as a bystander during the rest of the convention. "No Smoking" Kule Worries. "No smoking," is a sign rigorously observed and causing nervous spasms through a large part of the sessions. "Dry" smokes are the resource of Oov; j ernor Johnson, Boss Fllnn, Colonel New, "Big Steve" Stevenson and others. Flinn uses the,same cigar during an ejitire session, carefully tucking It In his pocket during outbursts against the steam roller. Senator Root made his Ueynote speech to the accompaniment of whisking brooms . wielded by janitor in" the gal leries.

Stairs and elevators are congested to the suffocating point. Today the hotel management decided hereafter to make visitors to the Roose velt headquarters walk up the flight of stairs. Orders were Issued to the ele vator conductors not to take passengers for the second floor. The wise ones In the crowd, however, took the "lift" to the third floor and walked down a flight. It was a night of wild hilarity last night for the thousands on both sides the Roosevelt supporters professing cer tainty of victory in nominating the na tional ticket and the Taftites flushed with their success In electing Hoot. The wildest scene of all wes enacted In the Pompellan room of the Congress hotel, where yell followed upon yell In vari ous parts of the gay throng at the ta bles and brought the assemblage to its feet time and again with a false alarm that Roosevelt or some celebrity had hove In eight. Gayest of all was a party of mixed Taft and Roosevelt ad herents, who fraternized at a table near the fountain. Plants Taft Flag la Fountain. Finally a dare was sprung, with a woman's laugh backing It up, and one of the men, waving aloft a Taft banner and shouting a laughing defiance to the others, sprang, into the beautiful Pon peilan fountain In the center of the room. Heedless of the water that splashed and sprinkled over and about him, he scrambled to the top , and planted his banner In the spurting crest of the fountain. There was a crash his foot plunged through the glass at the top of the fountain. A fush of waiters and a hurry police call took hlm by storm and he was led away from tba place in custody.

Among those-present is Miss Harriet Ford, the woman play-' wrignt, wno collaborated with MedlU Pat terson In writing -The Fourth Estate' and who Is now working with Harvey in which Detective William Burns' ex ploits will be dramatized, with Robert Milliard starring as the sleuth. Miss Ford believes that many of the success ful plays of the next few years will have politics as their theme and has therefore come on to get into the "at mosphere" of the most strenuous con vention in years. She is a T. R. rooter. KEEP OfJ FIGHTING COLONEL ment between the factions averted any violent methods. By this srmed truce. Certain persons were to be recognized to make certain known motions. By the working of this truce a clash has so far been avoided. At- the opening of today's seesfbn it was agreed under the terms of the trues that Governor Hadley should have recognition to press a resolution of fered as a substitute for the resolu tion of James Watson of Indiana, for the usual appointment of a committee on credentials. The Hadley resolution offers a substitute roll for that of the national committee and this substitute roll will be urged also lu,.a minority report by Senator Borah, national com mitteeman from Idaho.
