hotel this morning before The meeting
of the Republican national committee.
The Headquarters of the various delega-
tions representing the cities DESTROYS OF
being the meeting place Of the next
National Republican convention were
thrown open. and the consultations were
going on every corner. The leaders OF
the decorations had prepared them-
selves for the presentation TO the COM
mittee of the superior merits OF their
respective cities, and were engaged In
cauyassing the list of committeeman
and holding up the hope of their dele
cations. MeSsrS. Mckinley and Fora
ker were conspicuous among the many
persons thrOnging the Hobbies and cor
ridorS, and were everywhere greeted
with marked consideration. The MEM
berS of the committee itself were slow
in getting together. Eleven O'Clock was
the IhOur appointed for meeting, but at
that time not more than dozen OF the
members were present III the hall.
Others drifted in slowly, however, and
by half-past IL O'Clock the doors were
closed upon all but members, and the
committee held secret session. This
session lasted until half-past II o'clock
and was devoted to the usual routine
business.
The committee was called together
by Acting Chairman ClarkSon. and the
| roll was called. 1t appeared that every
state and territory was represented,
either directly or by proxy, except New
| Mexico, whose representative. Mr..
| Byerson, was detained on the railroad.
| The first business after the roll call was
! the acceptance of the resignation OF
Chairman Quay and Treasurer Dudley.
The resolutions of commentator,
which were adopted by the executive
/ committee last summer, when the
! designations which were presented were
laid before the committee and unani-
mOusly readOpted. The action Of the
executive committe in naming j. 5.
! CiarkSOn. of Iowa, as chairman, ana w.
q. Barbour, of New York, as treasurer
! OF the committee was approved. The cOm-
mittee took up the case OF the Utah rep
; reSentatiOn. involving contest between
MeSsrS. Mcbride and Bartch, and after
a special committee had examined
the merits of the case Nc
Bride was recognized as the mem
! Der of the committee from Utah.
Dennis L. Flynn, of Oklahoma, pre-
! scented his credentials as q member OF
the committee. These were approved
and Mr.. Flynn admitted, thus lncreaS-
ing the membership of the committee
to fOrty-fve. Mr.. Garrett A. Hobart
of New Jersey, was elected vice chair
| man of the committee. and after decid-
ing TO allow one hour TO the representa-
lives of each city competing for the
honor Of being the meeting place of the
| Republican convention, the doors were
opened at 1910 and the Representatives
of the press were admitted.

Desperate Havoc Wrought in

WASHINGTON. Nov. ga heavy
wind and rain storm. amounting almost
to a hurricane, passed over this city
about 2:3O O'Clock today, doing great
damage to property. The walls of the
new MetZerOtt music hall, in course of
construction, were blown down, and
several persons killed and many in
iured. George White, ladies' tailor, and
one of his sewing women were taken
out dead from the building adjoining
MetzerOtt's, and two others were badly
hurt. One of the reservoirs of the
Washington Gas company was struck
by lightning and burned. Loss, $4,000.
The total losses in this vicinity will ag-
gregate more than Sl0J.000.
A section of stone baluStrade around
the roof of the White house was blown
down during the storm and crushed
through the roof of the pOrtico at the
eastern entrance of the basement. A
large number of telegraph and tele-
phone wires were carried with the mass
of stone, completely shutting off all
communication with the house by
wire. The section destroyed was
about thirty feetlong. composed of free
stone in blocks and pillars, and IN fall
ing carried with it large portion of the

rife blizzard passed over this city today,
and the rain, snow and wind PLAYED
havoc in Wheeling. Little damage was
done. though telegraph wires were some
what interfered with. From points out
side the city, however, come reports of
considerable damage. At Moundsville,
twelve miles east of Wheeling. the most
damaging storm for many years pre-
vailed. The carriage works were COM
pletely wrecked, the building being
leveled to the earth, the wind taking il
bodily off its foundation, and several
men were seriously injured. One end
OF the glass works was blown i'll and
considerable damage done. From other
surroundings news OF more or less dam
age is coming i'll. The wind during the
height of the storm attained a dreadful
velocity.

ties of San Francisco and quoted in that rela-
ton the verse:
I'VE can live without love, which is mere
hoping and pining.
But where is the man who can live without
dining!n
1t was not to be expected that such q man
would be found in the national Republican
convention. Laughter.] The city OF san
Francisco had entertained the knights rem
plars and had entertained the Grand Army
OF the Republic, and with spontaneous
pOliteneSs and such unWearied courtesy ana
care that every member thought that he was
the special guest of the city and that the
whole business had been gotten up Tor MS

NJ. II. DE Young then addressed the
committee with arguments i'll behalf OF

rangementS that had been made for en-
tertaining the delegates, should San
Francisco be selected. and presented a
bond guaranteeing 5000 for the eX-
penseS of the national convention.
Congressman-elect Campbell, of Illinois.
spoke briefly for Chicago. He confined
himself merely to reading resolutions

ton, but promised to do all that could
be done to entertain the delegates should
Chicago be chosen.

OF New York were next presented.
Elliott F. Shepherd being the first
speaker. He held that all other
cities contesting would have candidates.:
New York had none; all would have
an equal chance. San Francisco was
his second choice. He presented dia-
gram of Madison Square garden, seat
ing 1900 people; referred 10 hotel
room for 10000, and said that the city
usually furnished the Republican party
two-thirds of its sinewS of war.
The spirit of the Democratic tiger
must Ue met, defeated and Gagged;
else the tiger would eat up the
country. 1t had taken New York and
was now after the balance of the United
States. A convention in New York
would make the Democratic power
falter, and the speaker appealed to the
committee to give New York peaceful
revolution.
Senator Hiscock followed for New
York. He said the ordinary MAORI
ties of the West would not do; not
the maiorities of Kansas and Wisconsin.
The New York Republicans had to go
down to Harlem with $4,000 majority
He believed New York was en-
titled to the convention, and said
there will be no vacation for New
York Republicans They must fight to
save the state from the enemy. The
convention meant much to New York.
Eight million people would be within
hearing of the proceedings of the con-
ventiOn.
Senator Hawley. of Connecticut, spoke
next for New York. and Mr.. Fassett
closed the case for New York. lie said
there was not an atom of force they
could afford to despSe. New York
state never but twice failed to give its
vote for the Republican ticket,
and on one of these occasions
the grandest Republican of them all had
been defeated CHEERS for Blainel. The
convention in New York would draw
out $4,000 Republican votes which other
| wise would not be cast. The nominal
ton or platform would not be affected
but the vote of the state would be
! brought nearer within reach. A re-
| fusal by the the convention to give
! New York the convention would be
a fatal error. Recess was taken at 6p.m.

'FRISCO'S CLAIM
Hum orOusly Presented by Con-
gresham Mckenna.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 23.-The first
business done in the open session was
the call Of states in alphabetical order
for the presentation of the claims of the
cities aspiring to the honor of entertain
ing the Republican national cOnven-
ton. The first state answered for was
California. Mr.. De Young introduced
as the spokesman Of San Francisco Con-
gresham McKenna. Mr.. McKenna adj
dressed the committee.
The city of san Francisco, he said, would
be found to have claims to consideration re-
garding her interests and the interests Of
the Pacific section, but regarding not
only the interests of the Rep ubh-
can purity He could best review the
objections mPed or entertained against them.
II was said that the city of san Francisco
was too far away. The distance was OBJ
jected TO, but that argument had not
strange suggestions. The splendld size
of The country seemed TO be get
ting announcement to the politicians. To tie
lonely away from home had not here tofore
characteristics. Laughter If geographical
/ consideration were TO prevail, other places
besides San Francisco were Objectionable.
Six days would be the extreme amount of
time that would be consumed as travel be
| tween san Francisco and any other city.
/ Was that consumption of time considera-
/ ton: Yes, if the days be wasteful days; no,
/ if they be workful days. And he emphat-
! ically declared they would be wor&ful
! days. Where would other such use
| tul and workful days be found!
! People would flock TO the Pacific
states by thousands. Every town in the broad
land would be a center of interest and ami
nation. Every pleasure felt and every sigh
seen would be memento of the Republican
party. Could anything better be done III an
! other six days? The travel would be a means
! of exciting, arousing and instructing the
! country. 1t would be a splendid opportunity
because he sincerely believed that the politi
! cal party which broke away from the dry ash
dust conservatism. of doing a thing because i
had always been done, had placed a nationa
! political convention for the frs. time in the
! West. amid an emotional. enthusiastic, i'm
questionable people. would achieve decided
! triumph. A Western friend of his had TOLD
him recently that he often came East to sc
the cOnceit taken cut of him. He (Mr. Nc
Kenna) would not suggest sending Eastern
men West for such a purpose, because every
! body knew that Eastern men had no eoncei
Iiaughterl, but he would send to the IVES

ton was triumphal piece of strategy.
and the effete East was never in the
contest from the beginning. There
were seven-the lucky seven-ballots
taken, and, though the figures showed
a wavering. the result was never for a
moment in doubt.
Yesterdays storm, of which the ma
tiOnal capital was the center, so demon
allied the wires that the press reports
crowded beyond capacity those which
remained intact, Gripping the report
itself and excluding special cOmmmu-
nications. The story was told
in brief, spasmodic bulle-
tins, which were neither seouen-
tial nor satisfactory. 1t was late at
night before the national committee
concluded the hearing of the arguments
for the several city claimants
and get down TO balloting. Meanwhile,
the committee organization was com
pleted and June agreed upon as the
convention date. The remainder of the
story is contained in the kilograms
below.
