Senator Root announced the unfin- ished business of the day—the motion of Watson that the convention pro- ceed to the appointment of the regular committees and the sub-motion of Governor Hadley that the Roosevelt Iist of delegates be substituted for the temporary roll. He also announced th® sgreement &s o three hours’ debate and asked If thege Was objection. There was not. As Governor Hadley advanced to the front of the stage to open the debate, & round of cheers from the Roosevelt forces greeted him. ‘When the tumult subsided Governor Hadley began an explanation of the situation confronting the convention. He reviewed the events of yesterday leading up to the ruling of National Committee Chairman Rosewater which quashed the Hadley motion to purge the temporary roll. “We could have met immediately and forcibly this arbitrary nad unparla- mentary ruling,” said Hadley, and he was roundly cheered. “We could have forcibly insisted on calling the roll on that motion and wecould have forei- bly taken control. Instead we chose to wait patiently until today. “Greatest Voice of Western World." “It may be true that there are many persons who do not agree with us that Theodora Roosevelt should be our can- didate for president, but there can be no_difference of opinion that his voice today s the greatest of the western world,” said Hadley. He then read a statement from 14 members of the natlonal committes “l Am Through,” Says Roosevelt.

The Roosevelt forces shouted again for everyone to come in. Mr. Thayer called for policemen, who pushed their way through and kept the crowd from getting in. Acting Under Roosevelt’s Orders. The Roosevelt men poured from the room declaring they were acting un- der orders from Colonel Roosevelt. “Everybody go to the Florentine room at the Congress” shouted one man. They . rushed out, followed by | the crowd, and in the street outside of the Coliseum they were overtaken by Secretary William Hayward. “Why did you act that way?” he de- mended of Heney. “Why daidn't you wait untfl some rules had been passed?’ “We are acting under the direct or- ders of Colonel Roosevelt,” retorted Heney. When the delegates had been called to order in the Florentine room by a Roosevelt delegate, an invitation was extended to “Taft delegates who were present under false colors” to leave the_room. ‘et them stay.” shouted a delegate. “We have no_star chambr sssions.” Willlam ~ Flinn, of Pnnsylvania mounted a table and addressed the | jrotesting against the action of the 7y n { majority in seatfng many of the dele- Parting of Ways Has Come.” { gates, partioularly in the California, “The issue has been joined,” he said, | T have just come fro ma two hours’ | conference of the Pennsylvania delega- tlon and we voted unanimously to walk out of a convention controled by the Taft forces through. theft and fraud.

Gover- nor Hadley made an earnest plea that personalities be left out of the debate, declaring the question was so clearly ons of principle that it should not be involved by anything else. It was not a question of any man's candidacy, he said, not a question of the next cam- paign, but embraced the very existence of the republican party itself. Declares Roosevelt’s Statement Fal Hadley was followed by W. T. Dov- ell o Washington, who argued in favor of the Taft delegates seated by the na- tional committee from Washington. Mr. Dovell characterized as “Teck- lessly false” the statement credited to Colonel -Roosevelt that an_effort had been made to “steal” the Washington delegates.

Chicago, June 20.—"1 am speaking to you,” said Colonel Roosevelt to his delegates, “as a man to whom some of you have done the honor to state that ou wish to nominate me as president. When I went into the race I made my appeal to the people. Most of the del- egates were chosen at direct primaries by the people. 1 made my fight squarely. 1 sald, and some of you heard me, that if thepeople decided against me I would have nothing\to say, but that if the people were for me'and the politicians tried to cheat me out of the nomination, I would have & great deal to say. *I went by the people and I won. Now the national committee and a portion of the convention Wwhich is made a majority only by the ald of delegates not elected but chosen by the national committee, are trying to cheat me out of the nomination. They can’t do it, As far as I am concerned it makes no difference. But it is not me they are cheating; it is the people, the rank and file of the republican party. “I @id not want to give you any ad- vice as I preferred to let you decide what to do; but I am going to give my advice. “Governor Deneen today introduced a very moderate resolution in dealing with the four flagrant steals. It asked that -the delegates from California, Texas and Arizona should not be per- mitted to vote, and that the three states stolen bodily—Washington, Ari- zona and Texas—should not put their representatives on the credentials committee. The motion was voted down by substantlally the same vote that elected Root over MeGovern. In each case the majority was a majority only because the votes of the fraudu- lently seated delegates were counted. “Mr. Root received 70 or 80 stolen votes,” continued Mr. Roosevelt. “Mr. Deneen's resolution was beaten today by fraudulent votes which in that res- olution were named, by the votes of Texas, Arizona, Washington, and the two_fraudulent votes from California. It those votes had been changed the resolution would have been carried. “To add insult to injury the commit- tes on credentiale organised by choos- ing as chairman Mr, Devine, the na- tional committesman, who had taken part in the very theft on which he had passed as a member of the national commlttes. “As far as I a mconcerned I am through.

There is no use In voting to cut out the fraudulent votes and then belng beaten by the fraudulent votes and say you are very sorry and go home. 1 hope you will then take the position that you decline longer to submit to having any dele- gates fraudulently seated to sit as Judges on their cases or vots on the report of the credentlals committee. “I hope you will refuse any longer to recognize & majority thus composed as having any title in law or morals to be called a republican convention.

A score of men seized him and rushed him to a table. Gentlemen,” Governor Johnson be- gan, “you have heard what we are go- ing to do tomorrow.
