One delegate from Louisiana was alb
sent, which accounts for only $40 votes
being cast.
| After the announcement OF the result
of the first ballot the Convention imme-
diately proceeded, at ll:20 a. M, to the
SECOND BALLOT.
| Total number of votes cast, SlS; nee
essary to n choice, 4ll-Baine received
$40; Arthur 276; Edmunds So; Logan Gl;
John Sherman %; Hawley l3; Lincoln 4;
Gen. Sherman >. The result of the sec
ond ballot was announced ut l:20, and
the increase of Blaine's votes was the
cause of exuberant manifestations on the
part of the audience.
The Convention then proceeded to
the third ballot. Before the vote was
taken Senator Cullom rose and said he
wished to read dispatch he had Just
received from General Logan. Objec-
tions were promptly made and sustained.
The understanding that the Logan vote
would probably be transferred to Blaine
produced storm of cheers and enthusi-
| asm.
Bingham. of Pennsylvania. VIM. o.
Phelps, of New York, and one or two
colored delegates, en-, eavored to get a
hearing, and vociferated and gesiicu-
lated without succeeding in being heard,
their voices being drowned in tumultu-
Gus yells, cheers and demands for the
call of the roll. Roosevelt, of New
York, carried away by the excitement,
got up on his seat and waved his arms,
but could not obtain hearing.
Cullom then withdrew the name of
Logan and cast the thirty-four votes of
Illinois for Blaine. The change in H.
l.nois from Logan to Blaine made Blaine's
vote4li. Cullom completed his report,
giving Blaine 81. L"gan : and Arthur 3,
gain to Blaine of 81, to Arthur of ,,
and n loss to Logan OF 30.
THIRD BALLOT.
The official footings of the third bal
lot were: whole number of votes cast,
Sl9; Blaine, 315. Arthur, PA; Edmunds,
50; Logan, 53; John Sherman, %: Haw-
ley, l3; General Sherman, =; Lincoln, s.
The result of the ballot was announced
at 2:lO. The announcement of the re.
suit was received by tremendous cheer.
ing. making the very building shake.
Before the vote of Alabama was given,
there was another uproarous scene, in
which butcher, Roosevelt and other
New York delegates took prominent
part. 1t arose upon the teehnicality that
a motion to take recess had been made
and had been decided by the Char in
the negative, although calls had been
made for vote by States. A motion
was then made by New York delegate
to take recess to 7.30 7. NJ. Roosevelt,
OF New York, demanded vote by
States, and at ., IS vote was taken and
defeated by 36i to $50. The announce.
ment was received with deafening ap-
plause, it being interpreted as sure ii-
dication that Blaine would be nominated
on the next ballot.
CHICAGO, June 6.-When the Chair
man of the Florida delegation announced
its vote as seven for Arthur and one for
Blaine, Mr.. Long demanded poll of
the individual delegates of that State.
Mr.. Joseph +. Lee, Florida-We
come here entitled to eight votes in this
convention. Our State Convention in
structed us in this wise by this resolu,
tion:
Resolred That no delegate or altern.
ate shall be authorized to give proxy to
any person not elected as such by con.
vention, and in case the full number OF
delegates or alternates are not present at
any time in the Chicago Convention,
those present shall pass the vote of the
delegation. [Cries of THAT wont do. 4"
Confusion.
The Clerk called the individual names
of delegates from the State of Florida,
with the following result: Emanuel
Fortune, Arthur; Joseph 4. Lee, Ar.

thur; A. G.. Lighburne, Arthur; John q.

FOURTH BALLOT.
lowing to the Generalization of the
wires the figures for this ballot failed to
reach us.
The vote was received with great en-.
thusiasm, the band playing, cannon
booming outside, and the hall filled with
people. The result was announced at
$40. Instantly, and even before the last
figures were pronounced by Mcpherson,
the vast audience arose and broke out
into another mad demonstration of en-.
thusiasm. Cheers resounded, the band
struck up an inspiring air, hats were
thrown up and national flags were
waved. A large square banner from
Kansas was carried through the hall,
promising large majorities in that State
