finally in getting that gentleman to
take his seat.

Senator Hiscock said that it was alb

THE LIQUOR ISSUE.

After the work of the Chicago con-
vention, as far as making ticket was
concerned, had been finished, the dele
gates were suddenly and Unexpectedly
confronted with the liquor question and
confusion.
Mr.. Boutelle of Maine arose and said
that in behalf of large number of del
egates he desired to move to suspend
the rules and adopt resolution to be
added to the republican platform.
Mr.. Oliver or Pennsylvania arose to a
point of order, that it was not in order
to offer a resolution at this time.
The chairman stated that Mr.. Bout
elle's motion was one to suspend the
rules, which would require to be second
ed by two states, and could only be
agreed to by two-thirds vote.
Then Boutelle proceeded to talk in
regard to the firesides of the nation.
when ali objection was made that de-
bate was not in order.
The chair sustained this point. but
stated that it was in order for the gen.
tleman from Maine to read the resolu-
ton Tor Information.
To this there was chorus of objec-
lions. and Mr.. Oliver of Pennsylvania,
standing on his chair and gesticulating
wildly, declared that all resolutions
should be referred to the committee ON
resolutions. ''Stand by your platforml
he yelled, amid a storm of cheers and
Kisses. Shouts of ''Put him cut, sit
down. shut up,r came in a chorus
from the galleries, and hot blood was
being engendered amid the widest con-
fusion. The chair became angry and
commanded the gentleman TO take hIs
seat. stating that If he did not do So
Instantly. the seIgeaRt-at arms would
be directed to take him into custody.
There is going 10 be order here,'' de-
clared the chair. but the round of cheers
which greeted the declaration rather
weakened its strength. For some min
utes aii was chaos: the gavel OF tile
chairman sounded amid ipcessant rata
plan, the gentleman from Pennsylvania
stood on his chair and shouted, the gal
leries yelled and eheered and Kissed.
while the numerous seroeants-at-arms
were utterly powerless to check the
nproar.
IN the confusion, Mr.. tombstone OF
.A-- f0rk sought 70 get tbs door. and
