WASHINGTON, February 22d.-It is nearly
midnight, and the work of the night is
practically done. The lobby of Willard's
looks. like field after the battle. Tarpey,
Colonel Irish and Curtis are holding con-
ference in the California headquarters and
looking over the ground. They are iubi-
liant over to-nlght's work, as positive gains
have been made. Every moment since The
adjournment shortly before o'clock to-
night, when San Francisco had seventeen
votes, has been utilized to good purpose
trying to bring over delegates to the Pa
cific slope. They scout the idea that any
combination is going TO be made between
st. Louis and Chicago, and insist that the
Convention will come to San Francisco.
Tarpey said: " We feel very much en-
couraged over our work tonight 1t has
produced good results, and when to-mor-
rows balloting begins San Francisco will
forge ahead farther than ever. with three
more votes gained tonight This, with
the seventeen we had on the last ballot to-
day, will give US o total OF twenty, within
four votes OF victory. Am l sure there will
be no desertions from the ranks of San
Francisco men, AS sure as pledges can
make me. We feel that we count on all
the men that have voted for US to vote for
us. and US alone, from now until the mid
die OF summer. We feel more certain of

the Democratic party and gentlemen couin
show that by holding the Convention IN Ch1c5go,
st. Louis, Cincinnati or New York, that grain OF
sand would fructify and bring forth Democratic
fruit in November, he would not stand here ask
ing that the Convention be given to San Fran

cific coast had been Spartans in the cause and
while they held forth the hand OF fellowship TO
their acknowledgements of the East and SOUTH
and while they offered to harbor the Convention
at their firesides, they would not wish 10 have
the pleasure of It's society and company did they
not feel that they could be of some service in the
great battle about TO be opened. The people of
that section were quick to resent insult and

sponse of California would be a glorious and

be put between San Francisco and Chicago,
which, with those already in use, would accom-
modate all the business offered. He did
not claim that San Francisco should have
the Convention because it could accommodate
it, or because its people were hospitable, or be-
cause it had the finest climate in the world but
he did claim that this Democratic body, sitting
as the custodian of the interests of the Demo
cratic party, should take into account the four
teen votes whichwere trembling in the balance,
and that San Francisco should have thoughtful
consideration at its hands. [Applause.
