Evans Hughes, justice of the United States supreme court, was overwhelme ingly nominated for president by the republican convention at 12:31 p. m. The nomination was almost immediately made unanimous ~ amid a scene of the most intense enthusiasm. At 2 p. m. Chairman Harding announced to the conven tion that a reply of acceptance is en route from Justice Hughes at Washington. Hughes today formally resigned from supreme court, ac- cording to word from Washington. As early as m’inight, when Sen. Sherman withdrew and asked that his 58 . jcgates“vote for Hughes, it was predi he would win Ohio next swung in line, and then just before the con- | vention, Indiana, Iowa, Massachusetts, Pennsylvania and others, Sen. Weeks, the only favorite son actually on the ground here, formally withdrew shortly after the convention met, appearing on the platform to declare he “wore no political scars” from his unsuccessful fight. “Big Steve” Stevenson, otherwise “Angel Archie,” na- {tional committeeman from Colorado and from the first day of the convention a staunch Roosevelt supporter, interrupted the ballot to announce on behalf of the Roosevelt delegates that they considered themselves released because of the colonel's leetter to the progressives, urging the nomination of Henry Cabot Lodge as a compromise candidate. Some of the undying favorite adherents nevertheless cast their votes for T. R. Alexander Moore of Pittsburg arose after announcement of the vote. “I fought to the last ditch for the man I believed was the best choice, but I now ask that the nomination be made unanimous,” he said. Lodge was the next to make a similar motion. The motion was carried with such a thunderous chorus | of “ayes” that the chairman announced, “There are no noes.” Charles W. Fairbanks of In- liana was nominated for vice pres: font The official vote on vice presi ntial candidates was as follows Fairbanks 863, Burkett 108, Borah |8, Burton 2, Johnson 1, Webster 2, jnot voting 4.
