  William Jay Gaynor: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/William_Jay_Gaynor

• Barbara (LOC P&P) said:

  Thanks for identifying Mr. Gaynor more fully. (He certainly shows up in a number of settings in the Bain photos!) We'll add to his name when we update the description(s).

from The Library of Congress

• Wystan said:

  The 1912 Progressive Party Convention, that nominated Teddy Roosevelt for President and Governor Hiram Johnson of California for Vice President, was held at the same venue, in August.

• Wystan said:

  In this photo of some of the same people, they are identified as being members of a Pennsylvania delegation, so Bain's fact checking left something to be desired: www.flickr.com/photos/library_of_congress/2163942622/in/p...

Mrs. B. Cochran [i.e., Cockran], Mrs. Oscar Straus, Oscar Straus, Mrs. T. Roosevelt Jr., B. Cochran [i.e., Cockran] (LOC)

from The Library of Congress

• Wystan said:

  The photo was taken at a reception for New York Bull Moose candidate for Governor, Oscar Straus, at the country home of Bull Moose congressional candidate Bourke Cockran, at Port Washington, Long Island, on September 28, 1912. The event launched the fall campaign of the Bull Moose (Progressive) Party in Nassau County.

• Wystan said:

  Note to LOC: Your title misspells the name "Cockran" twice, as does Bain's caption.
