over to the other side This was brought
about by an agreement perfected on

delegations and the anti-Custom House
wing, by which the former agreed to
vote with the latter, provided the anti
Custom House wing would assist i'll lect-
ing the Hon. Lloyd LowndeS delegate
at large to the Chicago Convention.
OF course the ruling of Mr.. Stockbriage
in seating the anti-Custom House dele
gates from Baltimore county and from
the Second Legislative district of Balti-
more city aided in building up the ma
.iority. and the anti-C ustom House wing
is greatly indebted to Mr.. Stockhrilge
for his action.

tons We're made. He stated he had Il
proxy from the Third district of Balti
more city. The chairman ruled Mr.. Ma
thews out of order. The latter continued
speaking. The chairman attempted to
put the motion on the adoption of the
report. Mr.. Mathews was quoted by
friends. DR.. Scott made verbal minor
ity report in favor Of the Custom House
delegates. The majority report was then
adopted ctra race. Mr.. Mathews again
obtained the floor and demanded to be
admitted as Il proxy. The chairman
ruled against him. \ motion to elect
delegates at large was adopted.
\ motion to read resolutions was then
adopted.
Mr.. McComas. of Washington, offered
Il resolution asking the delegates to Chi
cago to pay due regard to the Blaine
sentiment Of Maryland.
Mr.. Miller of Montgomery. offered a
similar resolution.
Mr.. Eichelberger. of Frederick, offered
another instructiny the delegates to use
all means to secure Blaine's nomination.
DR.. Tuck offered a resolution squarcly
inStructing the delegates at large to vote
for Blaine.

cage would not be instructed and that
they be allowed to vote for the success

ton. and said that as the a.iority of the
convention were opposed to it, he would
withdraw it.
Mr.. Sloan, Of Allegany. spoke in favor
of Blaine. but against instructiny the

the welfare OF this country, and assisted
in breaking down the Solidity of the
South that threatens to destroy the unity
and prosperity of this land. Gentlemen
may say what they please: they may talk
as much as they please about the unwrit-

''iirst in war; first i'll peace, and first i'll
the hearts of his countrymen.' APP
