Senator Lodge followed and walked to the front of the platform with Hays, where they shook hands warmly. The convention gave three cheers for Lodge, and Hays proceeded with hie introduc tion.

Depew, seated among the New York delegates before the con vention, held an impromptu reception. The confusion on the floor appeared to be increasing : at 11 The space Immediately in front of the platform was jammed. Many stood dn chairs. A cornet soloist, standing in front in the balcony. -got the first real applause of the day when he shrilled a selection that pierced the ear drums of every body in the vast, building. The band broke into "The Red, White and Blue." and the big crowd, which now practically filled the entire build ing, came to its feet waving flags and cheering. j MOOT TAKES ELATTOHM Senator Reed Smoot climbed to the platform, and ; strolled about calmly, greeting frienda . . :f : Kansas "followed New Tork In crown ing its standard with: a United States flag,:- j, f .-. f. ; Senator Sutherland of West Virginia, who ts; a presidential, nomination can didate, found a seat on the rostrum, Congressman Nicholas Longworth, Ohio, and Mrs. Alice Roosevelt Longworth oc cupied a box near the press benches.

While pho tographers' assistants on th floor and in the galleries told the crowd what to do and how to act, there was a great rumble of , laughter; Another ; roar of laughter ascended when the big flashlight- bomb went off, and delegates and spectators settled into their places. At the Instruction of Chairman Hays, Secretary Miller then read the can for the convention, in pursuance ; of the rules governing convention, procedure." After the reading of the convention call the aisles again became congested with the belated delegates seeking seats and hundreds of spectators were stand ing on the main floor, encroaching on the outside rows of the delegates' reser vatlona There was much conversation and nobody paid much attention to the reading. . -- Chairman Hays got a big cheer when old method." - Whether your office Is large or small, we are ready to install Dictaphones.

Lodge had great difficulty In getUng to the platform, owing to the failure of attendants to raise properly the floor of the .rostrum, which covered a con cealed stairway from - the convention floor. The senator finally - gave It up and he was conducted to the rear plat form, to make his appearance through another entrance. . - . : Lodge talked several minutes before he got hie first response from the erowd.

"' -. n..; U --vl The senator was dressed a bit more formally than he Is usually attired in the senate. As he read he slowly warmed up to his work and emphasised his points with gestures of one arm. A stenographer stood at Lodge's shoul der as he sounded the CO. P. keynote and several others were standing in the crowd Just In front of him. The audi ence, back to the rearmost recessee of the Coliseum, - was: unusually quiet There was. hardly a oough. A few pat ters of "handclapping greeted Lodge's first thrusts at the Democratic party.

The first roar came when he declared the Democrats must be driven from. power. . :. v:'M- : 5 The cheering continued several min utes. There was another outburst as Lodge called Wilson un-American. Lodge continued his excoriations and his thrusts drew laughs and more fre quent applause i "Mr. Wilson must be put aside," de clared Lodge, frowning and shaking his finger. He kept closely to his manu script and deviated from it but slightly. OAIAEBlts ABB 8ILE5T U A "The chief magistrate 'must under stand it is his duty to abide by the na tion's laws." said Lodge, and the dele gates, evidently taking It as a- thrust against President Wilson, broke into ap plause. The sporadic flurries of hand clapping were confined at this point al most exclusively to the floor. The gal leries were silent '-': , - "A Democratic free trader of Social istic tendencies," the next description of Wilson given by Lodge, brought a big laugn. . CROWD LAUOHS AT SOMEBODY There was another ' laagh as Lodge described what he termed the - presi dent's Incompetency, and the speaker paused to look ever the crowd with a characteristic wrinkling of his brow. There was considerable moving about the side aisles at this point belated arrivals hunting seats, is -' Lodge's- demand for- punishment of profiteers In the courts, instead of "in headlines of newspapers in the manner of the -present attorney general." gained a spatter or applause. , - The crowd obviously was not in much Franeiece) RaCroai, Zi.

JUMF OW GTJABD I Kavanaugh was taking three prisoners from ' California to ' the federal prison. All had left the dining car and returned to their drawing room about the time the train reached the city limits. Two prisoners were Chinamen, but one was not in the plot. Suddenly -Gardiner sprung on one of the guards, grabbed his revolver and held the party at bay while Wing handcuffed the two guards. Gardiner kept the fun, a II caliber officer's, revolver and took $20 from the pockets- of the second Chinese pris oner. Gardiner .'locked the . drawing room door as he and Wing left. The two Jumped off the train just as it slowed down to pull into the station.

They wanted to hear and for the most part attention was riveted on the speaker, as he slow ly, methodically : and without excite ment or dramatic effort, delivered smash after smash at Wilson and his regime and told what the Republicans would do about domestic questions if in power. Lodge concluded his address at 1 :1B p. m., navtng spoken an hour and 1 minutea "" - . The delegates and galleries rose to their feet, cheering and waving flags: Chairman Hays was recognised by Temporary Chairman Lodge for the pur pose of presenting recommendations .for temporary officers.

" it la with - such gentle thrusts that the -Borah-Johnson men are trying to rout the conservatives ats this con vention. Governor Lowden'e lieuten ants stand firm, but they know, as Re publican leaders know, that they must satisfy Johnson to get his -active sup port on the stump. So, in a nutshell, the Wood and Lowden booms may be said to be on the toboggan. The lead ers will not Immediately gtva up, but the drift is - already toward Hughes, Sprout, Hoover, Lonroot and. others, who have figured less prominently - in the primary campaigns . and the Struggle for delegates. .----THBT, HOLD- DESPEBATELTv :;? Lowd'en,- Wood nd Johnson ; are holding desperately to their- delegates, who shew a persistent tendency, to flock to a "dark ' horse not -. immedi ately, but at' the psychological moment in the balloting. For -,the outstanding fact about this ' convention ' is the ac knowledged uncertainty in each of the three camps of tha.4eadaraJ;.,..w; Not one of the three who are leading in the presidential race Is actually con fident of winning. Publicity agents and statements for publication express the usual veneer of confidence, hut it isn't borne out by the conversations not for publication. None is sure of bis ground. The situation here ie'a simple one. The managers of the Wood, Lowden and Johnson booms haven't given up but are struggling to tear delegates from one another. Some changes have occurred in the' last 4 hours. Here and there pledges have been given on the quiet, but the relative game are small and the net .effect has hardly . been enough to alter the chances of any of the three big contenders. . ; . None is much better than yesterday or - the day before. It is still Lowden, Wood and Johnson in the order named, and it is also still a fight to the finish between the Wood and Lowden forces so that there is absolutely no chance of fusion. . Bitterness does exist between the Wood and Johnson camps, but It would be much better for them to form an alliance than for the Wood and Lowden groups, to get together.: ;:,': ::. BETAS' GIVES VIEWS Should the men who back Lowden exert their . political power in defiance of the known effect , of . the Missouri scandal on Lowden's chances, they can keep this' convention deadlocked and Governor Lowden in the lead.

But talk of dark horses is entirely futile In the face of the present -determination to fight out the first 10 ballots between j Lowden. Wood and Johnson. , The con vention will do the eliminating on those three men. Preliminary sorties and as saults have failed to dislodge any of the three. Almost as many observers who are not attached to any of the candidates in one form or another, either e as dele gates or boosters, are as ready, to con cede Wood's nomination as that of Low den.' About the only thing on which prac tically unanimous - opinion prevails is that Johnson can't be nominated. LEAGUE FAVORED : It la a commonly heard saying that Johnson can have everything but the nomination, yet it will be noticed that the conservatives are going right ahead on the platform plank relating to the peace treaty and are not pleasing -Senator Johnson.
