In the Chicago convention yesterday
when the 34th ballot showed the increase
of the Garfield vote and the conventions S
tendency to break in his direction, he
arose and said: - challenge the correct
ness of the announcement that contains
votes for me. No man has the right,
without the consent of the person voted
for, to have his name announced and voted
for in this convention. Such consent
have not given"
The chairman interrupted and said the
gentleman was not stating a question OF
order, and he directed the clerk to proceed
| with the next ballot.
The first signs of the rOut of the Blaine
column were visible in the thirty-fifth bal
lot, when Garfield received so votes, near
| " all of them from Blaine. On the thirty
sixth ballot the grand crash came, and
when the vote was counted Garfield was
found to have received 800 votes.
| Caleb Taylor, Of Bucks county, Pa,
was the lone fisherman who kept voting
for Garfield almost from the beginning. He
started in for Garfield on the second ballot
and stuck to him alone on the third, fourth
and fifth ballots, when, on the sixth and
seventh another delegate joined him. On
the eighth and ninth the vote dropped to
again, the other man going to Grant. In
the tenth and eleventh, however, the vote
was again 2. On the twelfth it was only 1,
| and for the six subsequent ballots Taylor
deserted. He returned to Garfield, how.
ever, on the nineteenth ballot the first
after the recess) and remained steady until
joined by another delegate on the twenty
third ballot. These two continued steadily
until the adjournment and for the first two
ballots yesterday morning. Then, fol
three ballots (the thirty first, thirty-second
and thirty -third) Garfield received but the
one vote. On the thirty-fourth ballot
slight breaks were made from Sherman
and Washburne and the "dark horse y
scored Is votes.
| sherman BuIldOzers.
After the result of the thirtieth ballot
was announced, a great Sherman crowd
gathered about the Florida delegation, and
Hicks, chairman, exclaimed, 81 claim the
protection of the chair, in order that this
delegation shall not be bulldozed and har.
rowed by emissaries who propose to COM
pei them to violate their oath and honor. y
There was great scampering at once.
Ph Sheridan's Charge.
Upon the announcement of the ballot
Phil Sheridan, having received one vote
from Wyoming, came to the front and
said:
Il am very much obliged to the dele
gate from Wyoming for mentioning my
name in the convention, but there is nc
way in which could accept its nomina,
tion, if it were possible, unless | was
permitted to turn it over to my Lest
triend.''
At this there was great applause on the
Grant side. Hoar did not like this Grant
howl, and said that the convention had
permitted, without question, the illus
trious soldier to speak during the proceed
ings, but it was privilege that would be
accorded to no other person whatever.
