der beg to be heard on the. merits of that
controversy. lApplause.l
Chair-The Chair is of opinion that the
roll referred to in the resolution, which has
been adopted by the Convention, is the roll
prepared by the National Committee, and
that the order of the Convention embraced
in that resolution has been executed. The
Chair cannot hold, as matter of order, that
it is out of order to move now to call another
Territory or State. Loud applause and
yells.]
Conkling-I will inquire of the Chair
| whether it is in order for me to move to
amend the motion by adding as well the State
of Louisiana.
Chair-Undoubtedly
Conkling-I do not make that motion. nor
do I appeal from the decision of the Chair,
but with great respect to the Chair beg to
say that like many delegates around me, We
understood the meaning of the resolutions of
the gentleman from Maine that the Conven-
ton and all concerned were to stand to and
abide by the agreed, on roll.
| Frye-Being a member of the National
Committee, and having taken part in all the
proceedings OF that committee since we have
been in session in this city, desire to say to
the Convention and to the gentleman from
| New York, that it was agreed by that COM
mittee that Utah should be put on the roll
great applausel, and desire to say further
that the Secretary of the National Commit
tee, standing right by me here, says he left
out Utah by mistake. [Great applause.
Now, sir, l take it that Convention of Re-
publicans are willing to rectify mistake
made by the Secretary. IGreat applause.l
| Conkling-I regret that the honorable Sem
ator, the honorable gentleman from Maine,
who is so able to make US all hear, should
| have made motion utterly misleading, if
what he now says is true, and l do not doubt
that it is. Had that gentleman stated that
| there was a mistake in making up the roll,
he would have heard no more from me.
| [Applause And, MIR. President, in that
event the Convention should have heard no
motion from him, because all that was neces-
sary to obtain q unanimous consent in this
| Convention was to say that an error had
| been committed, and everybody would be for
the rectiication of that error. Applause
Now Mr.. Chairman, beg to say that upon
| the simple statement of the gentleman from
Maine that an error has been committed, if
he does not have unanimous consent, without
a motion to correct it, it shall not be because
I object. [Applausel
Frye-Mr. Chairman, in reply to the gen.
tleman from New York, l desire to say that
when made my motion I had just been in
| formed that Utah had been left off. l know
it was the agreement that it should go on.
The Secretary was not near me for me to in
quire. He came to me after my motion was
made. [Applause.l
The Chair then directed that Utah be
called.
Richard Mccormick of Arizona ask for
the reading of the resolution that l sent to
the committee while ago.
The Secretary read the resolution, as fol-
lows:
Resolued, That roll of States and Terri
tories be called for the presentation of cre-
| dentials, and for notice of contest. All such
papers shall be referred, without statement
| or debate, TO the Committee on Credentials
Mr. Mccormick move the adoption of
the resolution.
1t was adopted.
When Utah was called, Senator Conkling
rose, being requested to do so by the Repub-
licans of Utah, and said: 81 beg to present
the protest and the papers constituting that
contest from that Territory"
| The Chairman-1,hat completes the call of
the States and Territories.
CONTESTS.
On the call of the roll, Alabama and Ar
kansas gave notice of contest.
Henderson Of Iowa gave notice of contest
in ten districts of Illinois. [Applanse in the
galleries
Warmoth notified a contest in Louisiana.
| Contests were also notified in Pennsylvania
and Utah-the latter by Conkling of New
York, by request.
THE VETERAN ASSOCIATION ADMITTED.
Logan of Illinois moved that instructions
be given to the committee on tickets of ad
mission to the Convention to issue 500 tickets
| daily to the Veteran Association that justice
had been done to the Veterans by every other
| National Republican Convention, and why
should it not be done now and here? Ar
| plause. There were veteran soldiers sup
porting each of the Presidential candidates,
so that there was no particular move in his
motion. He himself had to enter the build
ing this morning without a ticket. be-
cause he could not get ticket from the
National Committee. He was here and he
wanted to see the Veterans also admitted
not to make noise or to cheer for any man,
but to look upon the Convention which had
to nominate the man for whom they would
have to vote. Loud cheers.
Fitzpatrick of New Jersey seconded the
resolution with all his heart
The resolution was adopted.
RECESS TAKEN.
Conkling moved that as some of the COM
mittees already appointed could not report in
time for an evening session tonight, the
Convention take a recess until tomorrow
morning at IL o'clock.
| Hale of Maine concurred in the uselessness
of an evening session and favored Conkling's
motion, which was adopted
| So recess was taken at 8 P. NJ. until to-
morrow at IL o'clock.
