They were unable to finue on to New Britain Andrews Car “Stolen’. John Andrews ) had his big ouring car decor and used for the benefit of the visiting guests to- suffered a distinct shock when ame out of Turner hall this noon and found his machine missing. It had been “stolen,” but subsequent in- vestigation showed that one of his friends had presumably taken the car either as a practical joke or to take some of the visitors about the city. Arrangements have been made to accommodate the 600 guests at the various hotels one of which has con- tracted to accommodate 200 people. With all available quarters in the ho- tels taken it has been necessary for many prominent Swedish families to throw open their homes to the guests during’ their throe stay here. New Britain has been elaborately decorated for this occasion. The de pot is festooned with American and Swedish flags; business blocks on Church street have also been decorat- ed and almost all of the Main street stores and blocks have bheen decorat- ed with red, white and blue, with the blue and yellow of the Swedish na- tional colors intersperced. City Hall is draped with American flags and the New Britain National bank building and the Savings bank of New Britain and the New Britain Trust Co., e also especially well decorated. New Britain has done herself proud in her reception of the guests and the various committees in charge of the festivi- ties are also in line for unstinted praise for the very able manner in which they aave arranged things. This afternoon the chorus of singers held a rehearsal at theater and tomorrow afternoon at o'clock another rehearsal will be held, Tonight's concert will begin at 8 o'clock as will the one tomorrow eve- ning.

An attractive prize badge in the form of a medallian has been offered for the best attendance of chorus at rehearsals and concerts and there is considerable rivalry among the visit- ing singing societies as to which one will win the caveted trophy. A gold bar, engraved to represent the hardy Vikings crossing the ocean in their crude craft, forms the top ornament cf this prize from which is suspended by a vellow and blue ribbon a gold disc. On the obverse is engraved a character representing music and song and lettering telling of the American Union of Swedish Singers. On the reverse side is the presenta- tion notice. Olives Bechamel B.

It was the longest sustained demon- stration of the convention so far. Finally the crowd quieted and Mr. Harding thanked the convention for its aproval. At 1:31 o'clock the republican na- tional convention recessed until 4 p. m., to await the report of the reso- lutions committee which still was working on the platform. The convention was in session about two hours and did nothing more than perfect its peramenent organization and listen to some speeches. Mr. Harding in a brief speech thanked the convention and then called for the report of the commit- tee on rules. The report was not ready and at the chairman’s request the band played, while the report was being awaited. Senator Smoot a supplemental report dentials committee, give votes to the six delegates from Hawaii, Porto Rico and the Philip- pines, and was adopted. That made the total number of votes in the convention 989 making 495 votes necessary to a nomination. Finally the report of the rules com- mitte was ready, and the national committeeman C. B. Warren of Mich- igan presented it- It was an unani- mous report and has been published. Briefly, the rules of the convention are those of the house of representa- tives with certain modifications to adopt them to the needs of so differ- ent a body. While the report committee was being ciated Press despatch from Oyster Bay quoting Colonel Roosevelt as willing to come to Chicago if the re- publican convention wanted him to address it, was handed to Chdirman Harding. He showed it to Senator Borah, W. Murray Crane and Charles D- Hilles, and it then passed around to others. Senator Harding had no commeont to make, but Senator Borah said: “If I were sure that Roosevelt actually said that himself, I would be in favor of inviting him here” Cheers for Chauncey Depew. The report of the resolutions com- mittee was the next order of busine: but the chairman announced that with the arbitrary authority which goes with the gavel he would appoint former Secretary Stimson and Speak- er Sweet of New York to escort Chauncel M. Depew to the platform Bowing and smiling, Mr. Depew took his place while the delegates ap- plauded. This was taken to mean there was a delay in bringing in the resolutions report.

His voice still full and round, carried better than those of younger men who had preceded him, and he was given closest attention. Mr Depew told the convention it was the sixty-first anniversary of his preaching of republicanism. “Today we have a world crisis in which even Christiantty is doubted,” he said in referring to war. “We are entering upon this canvass, either will keep us out of it, ur a mollycod- dle policy that will put us into it.” T.
