While hundreds of people were con-
stantly leaving the Generals residence,
other hundreds continue TO arrive, and
the house and grounds we're crowded all
afternoon. Among the delegations who
called was one of 200 voters from
Hendricks County, headed by State
Senator Campbell and Mr.. Hoten,
who came in on special train to con-

reference 10 the result at Chicago, very
highly appreciate the wise, discreet and |

an expression of your confidence and |

While these scenes were Transporting
at Harrison's residence, far more excit-
ing ones were being enacted down town.
From the time it became known
that General Harrison had been
made the nominee, it is hardly
exaggerating to say the town went wild. |
Indianapolis has a population of over |
100. 600 and it seems to have suddenly |
turned loose in the streets. If business |
was not suspended, it might as well |
have been. At the appearance of the
artillery, it was hummed to Circle Park |
where salute was fred. Thousands
of men and boys with horns added to |
the din. Professions marched in vari
GUS directions with ''544'-the number |
of Harrison's yotes-on banners writ
ten in chalk on each mans back. |
hunuIeuS ol uu1uluRS were decorated
with flags and Harrison's picture. |
A variety OF new campaign badges |
suddenly made their appearance and |
were eagerly purchased by the crowd. |
A number of men and boys drove |
big trade in aarrison's pictures. |
Wagons, carriages and tallyho chases
laden with enthusiastic shouters pa
raded the streets. In short tic
excitement was general and en-
thusiasm contagious. A num-
Der of railroads have ordered
excursion trains run to the city TO-
morrow, as people from all parts of the
State are anxious to come and con-
graduate the candidate. Many dele
gates in Chicago are expected to return
this way and an immense crowd IS
looked for tomorrow. Arrangements
are making for General Harrison to |
hold receptions in the leading hotels.
Hustled, of New York; rise to |
point of order.
Johnston, of New York-The only
question before the House is on suspen-
sion of rules.
Chairman-The gentleman is right
but resolution has not been presented.
Green-I desire to appeal from the
decision of the chair on the proposition
before the House.
