When tho dologatna and other crowds bare for tba opnnlng of tho' Republican na tional convention today piled out of bed and scampered for breakfast they faced a blistering hot day, uncomfort ably warm In tho morning hour and with tho temperature climbing. Thowoaher sharps hod pradcltod It would be "generally fair," and not much cbango In tempcraturo but tbo crowds could not take that view. Tbero waa an early start toward, tho big Coliseum, many of lato night stragglers being a hit weary with the long alcgo around tho hotel. A few barkers offered ticket to Iho convention at fabulous price with few buyers. Tho crowd waa viIhd, knowing today' session would supply no excitement. Tho candi date were up' and about early and campaign managor woro on tho job taking slock and hoping to find out If there had been any ovnr-nlght changes In the liao-up. In tho rush lo get to tho Coliseum nobody paid much attention to morning confer ences with candidates and Ihcro was much nvldcnce that thla method of obtalnliiR publicity wna wearing It self out, for some ot Iho leading as pirants sent down word yostcrday that there was nothing to say. Kvnrybody vran still up In the air aa to ho would'.wln tho nomination and from all aide tbero was a volley of In'inlrlcs aa to when Iho Job might bo finished. Also, for many tbo woalher was of mora vital intereat than Iho nominee. Ixjsa than a dozen alnlu delegate had failed to hold caucus?, but with tho exception of Oeofgia, aad possibly one or two other, than waa no fight ahead and llttlril!foa a Upajred. Tha aula idea waa to get to tho convention hail to see the breakaway aad kopa thereby to get tha right lant on the possible outcome Tbero was a lot of talk about the Johnson mas meeting and a declaration by Senator Ilorah that he would transfer tbo long senate treaty flht to tho floor ot tho convention. Hut In gen oral groping Ibe doubt, contusion, mess and muddle all excopt those fighting Inch by inch for their favor- ilo candldalo scorned to ngroo that tho old days when leader showed tho way wcro not so bad after all.
