The request was greeted with Kisses. When
the poll began one OF the delegates said he
arose TO q question OF privilege and said be
was here under positive instruction 10 vote

Wise aud Malone voted for Sherman.
Riddlebereer voted for Allison, but said he |
would vote for Blaine II IN nomination.
The result was received with no sign from /
the convention as 10 what impression had |
been made.
Before the second ballot was taken kr. |
Saith. Of PENNSYLVANIA, who had yesterday |
nominated Edwin II. Filter, withdrew his |
usme. Thin episode made no stir whatever |
IN the convention.
SECOND BALLOT.
The second ballot was tten proceeded !
with. During the announcement OF votes |
the convention was more sedate than 1t had |
been at anv time during the session.
Spectators and delegates were too much |
interested IN Noticing changes from previous |
ballots 10 make any demonstration. Senator |
Quay had evidently done good work among |
the Pennsylvania delegates last night Sher-
gained ~ votes from that State, most OF !
them being votes which on the tjrst ballot |
had been east for Filter This was the most /
important event OF The ballot and cOssidera.
bly, elated the Sherman men, wha had been |
disappointed at the vote for their fayofite on |
the first ballot.
The second ballot was as follows: Alger. |
l16; Depew. %; Gresham, los; ingalls,, lG; |
Rusk, 20; Lincoln, 3; Blaine, SO; Allison.
70; HARRISON. %; Phelps, 49,; Sherman,
249; Mckinley, 3.
The result was a disappointment to the
sherman people, who had beped that the
gain In the vote !Or him from Pennsylvania
would pot him up to nearly 500 votes. but be
lest in other places, and the anti.Sherman
combination begins TO claim that the Ohio
Senator's vote will go TO pieces in few
ballots.
THIRD BALLOT.
As the vote on the third ballot proceeded
there WAS htte change In the Sherman vote,
which everybody was watching, and there
were no notable changes ia the voting for
other candidates.
California continued to cast her solid vote
for Blaine, and Massachusetts still cast her
vote among nearly all The candidates. Gre.
shSm's vote increased, but not materially.
When Pennsylvania was reached Senator
Quay announced the vote OF the state, cast
ins 30 votes for Sherman as before and the
ether 10 scattering.
Mr. Johnston demanded poll OF the dele
CATION, which proceeded, much 10 the dis
gust OF the convection. the polling did
moi affect the result as announced by Sena-
tor Quay, and the ballot was proceeded with.
As usual, when Virginia was reached de-
mand was made that the delegation be pollei.
General Fsirchilds, OF Wisconsin, made
point Of order that call for poll could not
be made until the vote WAS announced and
objection was made to its correctness.
Dir. Wise arose and explained that the
Virginia delegation had been unable TO get
together and select chairman 10 speak for
the delegation. 1t had been therefore agreed
that whenever The State is reached the dele
cation be poied lie asked unanimous con-
sent that this should hereafter be the prac-
