Angry demonstrators have barely interrupted Republican National Convention, and because there has been little violence they have drawn relatively little national news coverage; nearly 1,800 protesters are arrested on streets, two-thirds of them on second night of convention; New York Police Dept, using large orange nets to divide and conquer, have adopted pre-emptive strike policy, cutting off demonstrations before they grow large enough, loud enough, or unruly enough to affect convention; demonstrations have so far been more restrained than at many recent protests elsewhere; protesters do manage to breach security cordon at Madison Square Garden twice on Sept 1; early in day, 12 demonstrators from Act Up enter convention site and interrupt speech by White House chief of staff Andrew Card; they are quickly arrested; during Vice Pres Cheney's speech, woman rushes convention floor; she is quickly tackled and dragged out (M)
