ventlOn was called Tor y O'CLOCK yeSter-
day morning, it was over an hour later
before the chairman of the city central
committee, Walter S. Moore. raped for
order and the delegates took their seats
in the space allotted to them according
to their respective wards.
At 10:15 o'clock Chairman Moore
briefly stated the object of the conven-
ton, and called upon the secretary, J.
Mills Davies, to read the call issued by
the city central committee ordering the
convention.
This having been done, Chairman
Moore announced that the first order of
business was that of nominating a tenn
porary chairman. Messrs. I. j. Carran,
T. 4. Lewis and NJ 7. Allen were placed
in nomination, but Colonel Aliens
name was subsequently withdrawn, as
he was unable to attend the convention.
\ vote was then taken upon the re-
manning two candidates, the roll being
called according to precincts, which
resulted in the election of t. j. Carran
by 1856 to 98.
Mr.. Carran, on being introduced by
Chairman Moore, was enthusiastically
received by majority of the delegates
present, and after the noise had some
what subsided he addressed them briefly
in a vigorous style, which appeared to
increase his popularity considerably,
judging from the manner in which his
closing remarks were applauded.
After thanking the delegates for the
unhoped-for honor they had bestowed
upon him, Mr.. Carran called upon them
to go to work so as to present a ticket

the citizens generally with the one they
had already elected straight, so that this,
the grandest part of the grandest state
in the union, should be represented as it
ought to be. He closed by inviting the
cooperation of the delegates in the per-
formance of his duties successfully.
Nominations for the position of tenn
porary secretary were then declared in
order, and the names of l.. f. Langtri,
+. J. Cooper and Lester f. Osborne
having been placed before the conven-
ton, all three were, on motion of Major
w. G. Furrey, declared the nominees.
The question OF appointing a tempor-
ary sergeant-at-arms was raised at this
juncture, and it was decided that he
should have but two assistants. A scene
OF confusion occurred, as a number OF
delegates attempted to be heard at one
and the same time, with the usual re-
suit. Finally the names of S. X.
Adams, w. E. Stoermer, d. Martin,
G.. Marshall and w. H. Graves were
placed before the convention; but, on
motion of E. j. Niles, the matter of ap-
pointing sergeant-at-arms and two
assistants was referred to the committee
on permanent organization and order of
business.
DIR. MCGOWAN moved the appointment
OF committee of five on credentials by
the chairman, but M. l.. Starin moved
as an amendment that one member be
appointed for each ward, and it was so
ordered.
The same order was made with regard
to committees on platform and resolu-
tions, and on credentials, and the ballot
was proceeded with, each ward select
ing its own representative in the various
committees.
The first collision occurred in the Sec
ond ward, precinct A, which had 1S
votes, being pitted against precincts B
and G, which had combined their 81
votes and demanded representation in
opposition to the members suggested by
precinct A. Both sides were very much
in earnest about the matter, and as del
egates from the other wards Clipped in,
the debate became very lively for time,
and confusion reigned supreme.
To add to the general feeling of excite
ment, a reflection was made by S. M. Ben
nett, lone of the disputants, against the city
central committee, to which chairman
Walter S. Moore replied in one OF his
most characteristic speeches, which was
received with enthusiastic applause
Finally the Second ward delegation was
polled and precincts B and G carried the
day, the protest being referred to the
committee on credentials.
Secretary Langtri then read the COM
mittees as follows:

Organization--J. R. Conlee, L. j. Sheick,
p. A. Stanton, W., A. Caldwell, 1. o.

At this juncture, IL :15 o'clock. the
convention adjourned until 80 O'Clock
in order to give all the committees time
in which to prepare their reports.
Afternoon Session.
- 1t was after 2 O'Clock before Chairman
Carran attempted to call the convention
to order again, and it was fully fifteen
minutes later before he was able to make
himself heard, such was the disorder
which prevailed in the hall.
The committee on credentials not
being ready to report, on account OF the
trouble it experienced in settling the
differences of the Second ward delegates,
the chairman announced at 2 80 O'Clock
that in order to facilitate the work of the
convention he would take the liberty of
calling for the report of the committee
on permanent organization and order of
business. p. A. Stanton, chairman of
the committee, then read the report, as
follows:

tiOn:
Your committee on permanent organ
ization and order of business beg leave
to offer the following recommendation
First--That the temporary organiza-
ton be made permanent.

manent organization and order of bust
ness.
