McSReeny, of Worcester, was chosen
to present the name of Thurman to
the convention. Then Gen. Durbin

plete recsrd CT this delegation shall

and requests passed by the state con-
vention on the 9th of May last.
ResoIUed, That the secretary shall

The resolutions we're advocated by
Messrs. Neil, Hill, Hoadly, Thomp-
SOD, Newman, Lewis, Page and
Kinney. Mr.. Armstrong spoke rather
in explanation than in support of the
resolutions, but declared himself to
be for Thurman. The resolutions
we're opposed by Parker and Farley,
who were the only members
voting against the resolutions. Upon
their adoption, the friends OF Thurman
from all parts of Ohio, called meet
ing ct Meladeon Hail, to night, in
viting line Ohio delegation to be pres
ent and answer why they did not
stand by Thurman. The Columbus
Thurman Club formed the neuclus
of the dissatisfied ones, who made
the call. An immense crowd was
in attendance. and the most ardent OF
even fiery speeches were made by
General Warner, Major Frank
Mckinney. Judge Hunt, of Newark,
Judge Oliver, of Cincinnati, and
others. Calls were made for tbe dele
gates, and General Steadman, OF
Toledo, the only one present, came to
the stage and excused himself on
the ground of physical indisposition.
The most biting sarcasm of the
speakers vas most applauded. With
grea! enthusiasm the meeting passed
the following:
Res0lred, That the candidacy of any
citizen of Ohio other than Allen G.
Thurman for nomination for the
presidency. i'll advance OF the pre-
sentation Of his name, is repudiated
By the democracy OF OHIO and de-
nounced as heing untrue to the ex.
pressed Will OF the democracy OF their
state IN convention assembled.
The meeting adjourned, to meet st
Melodean Hall tomorrow evening,
and continue the invitation to the
Ohio delegation to be present.
