A SPIRITED DloCuootON
CHICAGO June 4.-SenatOr Hoar called the
Convention to order at 5:25 p. M, and lost live
minutes in getting IL.
Mr. Henderson, of Iowa, said he understood the
Committee on Credentials was not ready to re-
port, he therefore moved that the Committee on
Rules be instructed to report.
Senator Logan-I do not intend to debate the
matter. but ask the gentleman how much the
presentation of this report at this time will faci-
tate business. 1t was agreed in Committee to
POSTPONE it, There are some things in
this report on rules which may, and
some which may not be suitable to
adopt. [Applause.I Don't be to hasty in raising
the axe to the head of your fellows Applause. ]
AMI ask, all any honorable gentleman in this
Convention should ask, is fair play. Applause !
We want a standard bearer for the whole party,
and not for q part OF it. We want to know where
We stand before we go to work. One of these
niles chokes off all debate into iye-mnute
spegches Why should 1t be necessary to force
III q upon us? We came together to consider these
questions fairly and justly. and If justice is to be
done. let the com pact made by the members Of
that Committee be kent. There is no COMPACT
made by any of our friends which has not been
kept to the letter. LApplause.l 1t has been
agreed that this rep rt should follow that OF the
Committee on Credentials"
SEE, THE CoNKLING HERO COMES.

HYou say no. Why is 1t that you say no? Do

friends in Committee? Do you intend to ride

cleared II there are interruptions of this Sort
Senator Logan-B rds that futter are already
Killed am not speaking 10 the galleries but to
the honorable gentlemen on the floor of this Con-
Sention.
Henderson, In reply to Logan, said he was glad
to hear the sentiments of the gentleman from llli-
nois, that there must be no riding rough-shod
over the rights OF members of the Convention.
iApplause1 The gentleman had asked why this
haste? The speaker wanted TO know why this de-
lay? He said that Garfield stated in the morning
session that there was no compact between the
Coysnittee on Rules not to report Why is this
report ready now? The ninth rule, that Logan
opposs1, was the same in substance as that adopt
