CHARLESTON, August 3.

SHAhLESToN, huSuss ~
Special to the Register.
The Democratic Convention OF the
Third district, met here this morning at
10 o'clock, for the purpose of nominating
candidate for Congress. .-r-
The persons prominently mentioned as
candidates were Hon. Frank Hereford,
tho present incumbent, and chairman OF
the House Committee on Commerce; IL.
S. Walker, editor of the Charleston
Courier, and John 4. Kenna, prosecute
ing attorney, of Kanawha county.
The Convention went into permanent
organization, and the proper officers and
committees were appointed.
The Committee on Credentials, object
ing to the credentials Of delegates pres.
ent, stormy debate onsued, which oc-
cupied the time of the Convention dur
ing the day, and finally, after discus
sion which occupied the greater
part of the afternoon, the convention ad-
journed until P. NJ, to allow the adher-
ents of the different candidates TO cool
off,
The convention will, in all probability,
have an all night session.
Unless Walker and Hereford unite
their strength, Kenna will doubtless re-
ccive the nomination. q. A.
