an hour later their rnrther progress was
imlos sible 1t was as il the entire popu-
lat.on of the c:tt, with its myriad of
strangers had, moved by n common
impulse, 1oe6ed en- masse to the To-
cality.
The police and gatekeepers looked
| aghast over the ocean of heads, and pre-
pared for an emergency. Ropes, lad
ders, everything that could be used for
temporary barricades, were brought into
~requisition, and in this way with the aid
of a small army of policemen, something
of q sernblance of method was secured,
and the delegates and ticket holders
having forced their way through the
TthroRg, were enabled to reach the int
rior Of the building with comparative
ease. At intervals Shouts would be
raised for Blaine, Sherman, orsome other
candidate, but it was noticeable that the
name of the former had lost none of its
magnetism.
In the visitors section the hall filled up
rapidly, and men and women poured in
continuous streams through the score of
entrances. The delegates themselves
were hardly as numerous at half past 9
as they had been half IN hour before the
opening in the morning, but this was ex,
planned by the fact that most of them had
been participating in the OF
their respective delegations.

der these conditions personal considera-

possible weight. Since then a dis
cussion has arisen which has convinced
me that my vocation and associations
will raise questions in hitherto sure Re
publican states which may enable the
enemy to obscure the great issue Of the
future industrial prosperity of this coun-
try, which, unless it can be Obscured in
some way, will surely win us success
this fall. IGreat %applause.l The del

and careful consideration, / came to the
conclusion that no personal considera-

moment in the way of the general sue

lease me from further service in this ca

the gentlemen from the states and terri
tories who have honored me with their

Indiana man. News Of this action was
quickly carried into the Sherman camp,
and it was conceded that something
would have to be done to stem the Har-
rison tide that was inevitable If the bal
loting was allowed to proceed tonight.
That something, it was finally decided,
should be an adjournment. The sup
porters of Allison, Alger and Gresham
appear to have felt about the SAM way,
and so when General Hastings of Penn
sy1vania proposed adjournment, the
states which father the three candidates
in question were prompt with their sec
onds. In the main, the vote of tonight
represents the field against Harrison.
The latter appears to have gained con-
siderably since the adjournment. His
friends claim that on the first ballot
in the morning he will have, besides the
vote of his state, sixty-two from New
York, the solid vote of Virginia, thir-
teen from Wisconsin, as well as support
from Tennessee, Vermont and Nevada.
1t isreported that the Alger support will
jump to Blaine, with a view of securing
second place on the ticket for the VOL
VERNE governor. y

The galleries cheered to the echo every

vote to adjourn as 63 against it and 8 for
it. The declaration was challenged by
VIM. ID. hanson of the Seventh district,
and the roll wa called. Both Depew and
Platt voted against an adjournment.
The call of the delegation resulted in 10
voting to adjourn and 81 voting the
other way. The roll call was then con.
tinued. Ohio voted solidly to adjourn.
Pennsylvania voted so to adjourn and 10
against it. Apparently a majority had
already been secured for adjournment,

G.. r. Davis of Illinois rose to a ques-
ton of order. It was that in the event
of an adjournment being carried, Col.

The roll was resumed and Wise voted
solidly against it, but it was too late. The
vote was about to be announced when
Maryland, which had voted IL to 3 to ad-
journ changed to 8 against s. The total
vote to adjourn was 535 yeas, 2S2 nays.
No sooner was the result announced
than the galleries began g demonstra-

dress the convention, which kept the
convention in session after 1t had. been
voted to adjourn. This demonstration
was kept up for several minutes, and it
was 7:54 before the convention was
formally dismissed.

CHICAGO, June 23.-In and around the
auditorium from early this morning
the scenes were those Of the past three
days. The same excited crowds, the same
frantic efforts Of delegates and ticket
holders to reach the doors, and the same
throwing up of barricades by perspiring
police in the effort to keep the crowd
buck.
AT 1920 quietude was restored within
the hall and Senator Warner Miller was
introduced by Chairman Estee as the pre-
siding officer of the day. BY this time
all the delegates were in tt. il seats, and
Bishop Fellows offered the opening
prayer. The eloquent divine closed by
repeating the Lords prayer, and at the
close there was a general response of
sAmen.n
The balloting was then begun amid
much suppressed excitement.

CHICAGO, June 23.-Balloting will be-
gin shortly after A O'Clock. In the mean
time the friends of the different candi-
dates are using every effort and argu-
ment to make votes for their choice. A
prominent politician this afternoon said:
Blaine will be nominated on the Sec
ond or third ballot. Nothing can pre-
vent it"
Another declared Blaine would not re-
ceiye 800 votes If the delega g. knew he
would accept the nomination. Others
figure hat Harrison's strength has
reached It's climax, and that deserters
from him will vote for A1ger, Allison or
Gfessss,am. Good judges think that any
of tho Latter three have good fighting
chance with Harrison or Sherman.
Sherman's friends are reported to have
about given up the fight and it is said
their votes Will go to Gresham or Alger.
All sorts of rumors are afioat and any
attempt to form a conclusion must
necessarily be formed on a basis of guess
work. 1t is still anybody's race.

Music Hath Charms.

The clerk had for some moments been
ringing the bell which gave the signal to
the orchestra in the gallery, but in the
babel the signal had been unheeded.
Suddenly the strains of a medley of ma
tional airs rang out and partial order
was restored, but at this point the Cali
fornia delegation raised a flag inscribed
with Blaine's name, and the piercing
yells which greetedth emblem drowned
the music and led to a renewal of the
confusion.
Again Fred Douglass took the gavel,
and, perhaps because the people were
too tired to continue in the demonstra.
ton, he succeeded this time in making
himself heard. 81 have been promised y

Still the discordant shouts and cries
| continued. There were calls for various
| speakers, but while one part of the audi
ence were shrieking for one man other
parts were yociferating other names.
The crowd had succeeded in forcing one
orator from the rostrum, but had lost
control of itself, and could not agree
upon his successor. 1t was as perfect an
example of anarchy as Chicago has seen
for many a day. Finally, the massive
form of Fred Douglass was observed at
the chairman's desk. The rugged.faced
negro orator, generally so popular and
so able to sway great audiences, seemed
to have lost his magic power, for the yell
ing crowd refused to obey the gavel as
he welded it.
