National Chairman Hanna will probably t any of the meetings of the | “ommittee. He will be very with other matters and Mr. Payne, ho occupied the chair at to-da. meet- ing, will continue to act as chalrman. A’ practical and thorough test was made of the acoustic_properties of the conven- tion hall this afternoon. Members of the National Committee and the local organi- zations that have taken part in the prepa- ration of the bullding for convention pur- poses assembled and listened to test speeches made by Mayor Ashbridge, Ser- geant-at-Arms Wiswell, Chairman Dob- the general the during the convention and men were sta- tioned in the remote sections of the hail to listen to the speeches and music. All n—}mned that the acoustics were every- thing that could be desired. The National Committee requests that the different State deiegations will act promptly in designating the members. to fill the following places: Chairman of the delegation, secretary of the delegation, vice president of the con- vention, member of committee on creden- tials, member of commiitee on permanent organization, member of committee on rules, member of committee on resolu- tions, National Committeeman, member of the committee to notify the nominee for President, member of the committee to notify the nominee for Vice President. Mesting of the Committee. The Republican_ National Committee met at the Hotel Walton at noon to-day and immediately began the investigation of contest cases preparatory to the forma- tion of the temporary roll for the National Convention. Senator Hanna was not pres- ent when the committee was convened, and Henry C. Payne, member from Wisconsin, was chosen to preside in his place. = Senator Hanna came on from Washington about half past 1, but did not assume the duties of the chair during the afternoon. The entire afternoon session was de- voted to hearing the recital of testtmony and to arguments in the contest from the State of Alabama. There yere seven con- tests from that State, Including those over the representation from the Btate at large and those from the Second, Third, Fourth, Fifth, Seventh and Ninth' districts. The newspaper representatives, as well as the public at large, were excluded from the room in which the committee sat. The hearing in the main consisted of recitals of petty acts of bribery and of intimidation frem both sides of the con- troversies, and in some cases affidavits were read in which the witnesses had tes- tified on both sides of the case, giving absolutely contradictory testimony. 'T'he principal developments of the day, how- ever, consisted in_bringing out the fact that the Federal office holders in Alabama and some of those from the State who are employed in Washington ‘had been ex- | Delaware controversy to a committee wi | of the two HoTo. 8 0B tremely active in shaping the result of contes for delegates.

It was generally known that he would arrive at 1 o’clock and there was a goodly crowd at the station to see the famous national chairman. Senator Hanna was met at the station by Clement A. Griscom, president of the Internationai Navigation Company, and they lunched together in a restaurant on Broad street while a crowd of admirers without doors looked on. Accompanied by Mr. Griscom Senator Hanna left the city at 4 o’clock for Haver- ford, a suburb, where he spent the night at Mr. Griscom’s house. Although Mr. Hanna has a suite of rooms at the Strath_ ford Hotel it is belleved that he will spend all his nights at Haverford while the con- vention lasts.
