Senator Doran gave notice of debate
which was followed by motion of Sena.
tor Wilson to lay the resolution on the
table, which motion prevailed, and Child
was quieted for little time and the'second
ballot of the day was had.
The result announced, Mr.. Rahilly moved
the convention adjourn, but as decided
majority, as it proved, had met to elect a
United States senator, the motion was
voted down by decided majority and the
third ballot of the day was taken.
The announcement Of the result of the
third ballot showed thirty-two votes for
Sabin, within three of the charmed num-

we'll understood, would absolve
Democrats from allegiance to their
candidate, the Hon. Thomas Wilson, when
stampede of this element of opposition
to Window, would be made to Sabin. The
situation gave Child another opportunity
to commence an obstruction speech, which
he improved by moving the convention
proceed to another ballot, saying he be-

"What is the point yoa maker"
Doran-That there is nothing pending
before the joint convention, which is
limited to voting for United States sena-
tor.
HICKS RETIREs.
The Chair, Mr.. Hicks-This question
having been raised again, shall have to
resign the chair, as l differ, as I stated
yesterday, with the ruling of the speaker
upon this point.
Mr.. Hicks then gave place to Speaker
Fletcher, who promptly ruled Child out of
order.
Mr.. Buck moved the convention adjourn.
Mr.. Grimshaw hoped the motion would
not prevail. We were now reaching-
At this point Mr.. Grimshaw was
interrupted with cries of 'order,
ORDER" and the violent rapping
of the speakers gavel, but Mr.. Grimshaw
kept right on talking until he finished his
say, but owing to the great confusion, the
last word recognized by the reporter was
reaching"
The speaker then put Mr.. Beck's motion
to adjourn, and upon the viva voce vote
decided it lost. A division being called
rected the clerk to proceed with the roll
call for the fourth ballot. The ballot
finished and the result announced, Mr..
Morris moved the convention adjourn,
which motion met with the same fate as
like preceding motions. A division was
again called for, which the speaker
declined to receive, upon which Senator
Doran calculated, ''that's settled"
STAMPEDE TO sABIN.
On the fourth ballot Mr.. Sabin received
33 votes, and it was known by his friends
that the charmed number, 35, so anxiously
looked forward to by the different factions,
would, if promises were lived up to, be
reached and passed on the fifth ballot.
The senate call, however, was completed
without any break in his favor, but with
the first name of the house call,
II. Anderson,th that gentleman changed from
Cole to Sabin, giving him 81 votes. Mr..
Anderson was in turn followed by Mr. Bob
Letter, who left Window and, the 35 votes
were reached. Then in turn Bohland, Cor
nish, Groetsch, NJ ohnson and White. And
those who had been keeping a tally, as
nearly all members had, saw that Sabin's
vote had reached 40.
Senator Castle, who by virtue of his
name heading the list of Democratic men,
bers, had been authorized by his associates
to sound the signal for the Democratic
break; arose and addressed the speaker,
saying in substance that in accordance
with the action of the Democratic caucus,
in the adoption of resolution pledging
the individual members of the party to
stand by their candidate, the Hon. Thomas
Wilson, until some Republican other
than Mr.. Window should receive 50 votes,
when such alliance should end and each
member be allowed to vote as to him
should seem best in The then existing cir
cumstances; and the Hon. D. NJ. Sabin
having received more than the thirty y-five
votes designated by such resolution, he
should now avail himself of the privilege
by it conferred, and change his vote from
WILSON TO sAB1N.
The announcement was received with
clapping of hands aud other demon
strations of approval by members
and spectators, promptly checked,
however, by the speaker. Following Mr..
Sabin, several members rose to their feet at
the same time to change their votes, at the
end of which the record was, Sabin So,
Window 35, Cole 20, Wilson 10, Hubbard
10, Wakefield 2, Berry l, Start 1 and L.
Donnelly 1.
Upon announcement of the result, Sena-
tor Wheat (Windom) moved to adjourn.
Lost, and the sixth ballot was taken, re-
sulting in giving Mr. Sabin sixty-three
votes, six less than the requisite number
to elect. Before the vote was annouced
