nous. The motion was carried without dis
senting voice, and was the occasion of anoth-
er tumultuous scene in the hall lasting for
some time.
EVENING SESSION.
The session was opened by brief
troft The first business transacted was the
completion Of the National Committee by the
addition of members from States which had
not already reported. These were: Nebraska,
Church Howe: Kansas, Silas Wheeler. Jr;
3. ElkIns; District of Coiumbia Colonel Perry
Carson:
A motion was passed allowing State Central
committees to select members OF the National
Committee in cases of vacancies. On motion
of MIR. Taylor, of Illinois, the time was limited
to ten minutes in presenting the name of a
candidate for Vice-President, but no attention
was paid afterward to the resolution.
The next business taken up was that of
nominations for Vice-President. The roll of
States was proceeded with until Illinois was
Then Senator Plumb, of Kansas, took the
stage to nominate John A. Logan. He re-
ferred to the platform adopted as an excel
lent one, and the nominee for President as
one who could defeat any Democrat
whether he was dead one or live, one. The
ticket, he said, could be elected, no matter
who was hamed for the second place.
But it was important to have a man who in
every way was fit for the first place. Logan
was known throughout the length and
breadth Of the land, and would add great
strength to the ticket, so that in doubtful dis
taicts the party would triumph and carry into
Congress additional Representatives. Logan
was statesman, and enjoyed the confidence
and admiration of all. He was soldier, and
was idolized by the million men still living
who participated in the late war. The name
OF Logan was received by the audience with
wild applause and cheers.
The nomination of LogansWas seconded by
Judge HOuck, of Tennessee, who Landed him
very highly, declared that his nomination
would be received with delight by the whole
country, and that the truth was that there
should not be any other nomination. The
convention should join Tennessee in giving
him unanimous vote, LOgan's nomination
was also seconded by Mr.. Thurston, of
Nebraska; Mr.. Lee of Pennsylvania, Mr..
Horr, Of Michigan; Mr.. Dancy (coloredj
of North Carolina; DR.. Arnold, of Georgia;
Mr. Bradley, of Kentucky; Samuel Lee, of
South Carolina; Mr.. Pet bone, of Tennessee;
Morey, of Louisna; Bar. of Virginia; Robin
son, of Ohio, and one or TWO others. Most Of
them laid great stress on the popularity of
Logan with the soldier element and with the
colored people of the South.
Several times the motion to nominate LO-
gan by reclamation was made, but was
howled down to enable anxious delegates to
get IN their speeches. At one time cries for
Malone" were sent up from all over the
hall, but he, being absent, Mr.. Blair of Vir-
ginia, arose and seconded the nomination for
him. colored delegate arose and called for
the roll of States, and sugges, ed that the 9TH
erS be given leave to print their speeches.
Shortly Hfterward the chair started up with
sudden determination and put the motion to
suspend the rules and make Logans nomina-
ton unanimous. Two yellS went lip, that in
the affirmative being tiuch the greater, and
the chair declared the motion carried, and
sat down exhausted. The applause and
cheers of the audience lasted several minutes,
during which time several clustered around
the chairman, evidently trying to convince
him that he had put his foot in it most disas-
tlrousy by not permitting Logan's nomina-
call of the States Mr. Henderson however
was determined. Shortly afterward George
h. Davis, of Illinois, demanded that the call
of States be made, and it WAS had with the fol
lowing result: Logan, 779; Gresham, 6; Fora
ker, l. The Gresham and Forakervotes came
from New York. At first Massachusetts gave
three votes for Fairchild, but shortly changed
her whole vote to Logan. For the first time
since the convention began the District of Co.
lumb'a voted solid, but as the two delegates
are not on speaking terms, each rose and an
nouneed bis affirmative vote separately. The
usual motion was made to make Logan's POM
ination unanimous, and was carried without
dissent.
On motion of Mr.. Mckinley, of Ohio, it was
decided TO appoint committee to notify
Blaine and Logan of their nomination. The
chair said he would announce the committee
later After thanking the officers of the con-
ventiOn, the Sergeantat-A Arms, the various
committees of arrangements and the Union
Veteran Club, the convention adjourned
amid the cheers of the audience and the
playing of the Star Spangled Banner" by the
band.
