No one had supposed for q moment
that MI Blaine would make such a poor
showing. but when it was seen that the
bosses were slaughteTing him there was a
general feeling Of compassion for the grand
old man aud muTmuTs of disapDroval for
the manner in which he had been sacrificed.
There were thousands in the audience
who had known him night aRd day, in vie
tory and defeat, and WHO believed implicitly
that he would be successful. They had
never dreamed that he would be used to
satisfy the selfish ambition of a few men,
and when they saw what was being done
they resented it bitterly.
Still, as general tn ing, the result was
accepted as satisfactory, and in spite Of the
bitterness with which the fight had been
waged the show Of enthusiasm was simply
astounding
Before the chairman could announce the
vote the convention was on its feet and for
fully 10 minutes the cheering was deafen-
ing and incessant There were but few
men in all that vast assembly who did not
seem to accept the result with ready grace,
and two Of them were Mat Quay of Penn
sylvania and NJ. II. de Young of California.
While tie cheering that greeted the name
of the victor was at its height both sat dog
gedly in their seats refusing to stir and ex-
pressing no qualification at the fact that it
was all over.
De Young, in fact. was the very picture
Of despair. Once or twice be endeayored to
smile, but each attempt was fiat failure,
aud the dismal expression of his face showed
the cost Of the defeat to his feelings All of
the California delegates except him joined
in the general hurrah, and not one of them
who had voted for Blaine seemed to feel the
least discomfort.
Even George knight, who Is regarded as
one Of the most enthusiastic Blaine men here,
yelled himself hoarse for harris son, and an
nOunced that he was going back to CalifOr-
MIA to take of his coat and work for his
election. Georges face was wreathed in
smiles, and Pillsbury and Spence and FELTON,
actually hugged each other in their Joy over
the result.

Special Dispatches to THE MORNING CALL By
Western Associated Press.
MINNEA POLLS Convention HalD, June
10.-The battle has been fought and the ad-
minstration OF Harrison is sustained by the
Republican party in his nomination for
President for second term. Every resource
known in political warfare was brought to
bear by the leaders Of the opposition TO de-
feat the Presidents denomination, but his
friends held steadfast to the end The
name of Blaine on every occasion called
forth vast amount of enthusiasm. but the
result has demonstrated that new era has
arrived in national conventions, and that
the preferences Of delegates can no longer
be swayed by the manifestations of cheer
ing thousands in the galleries. At no
time did the name of President Harrison
evoke the enthusiasm that was called forth
by the names of Blaine and Mckinley.
Half dozen conferences we're held in
the early hours of the day by the anti
administration leaders to determine what
were best to be done. The proceedings of
the convention show the result of these
conferences. 1t was determined to keep
Blaine in the field until the spirit Of the
convention had been obtained. and then en-
deavor by skilful move to stampede the
convention and nominate Mckinley.
Pennsylvania was the first State TO turn
aside against the compromise candidate,
who was ushered forth by the most solid
vote of the State of Ohio.
The exact effect which Harrison's nomi-
nation is to have upon the party will not be
known until the passions of men have sub
sided. There is a great deal of bitterness
tonight, and probably much of this will
live during the campaign. But whether it
will be sufficient to endanger the success
of the Republican ticket is problematical.
Chairman ClarksoD, ex-senator Platt, j.
SiOat Fassett, ex-Gov. Foraker and others
intimate tonight that their coats are off and
that they expect to enter the political field
in behalf of the nominee of the Republican
party. John G. New, who has figured
largely in HarriSonian councils, is in fine
spirits. He said they had made a hard
fight and had met skillful oppo nents, but he
had nothing TO say against them.
Ex-senator Spooner said: "This has
been the most remarkable contest Of the
kind that ever took place in this country,
but the bitter and prolonged contest has
left but little animosity behind 1t, and the
indications are that the party will be united
and win splendid victory.
Conger of Ohio said; II should have pre-
ferred to see Blaine nominated, but con-
slider that the convention has made good
| choice, and will work to elect the nominee" 4"
Senator Teller said: Colorado believes
| Blaine would have been a stronger man,
but we are loyal Republicans and stand by
the ticket, and, il Harrison is defeated, it
will be by the men who forced his nomina-

savage determination upon his Napoleonic
features, as he announced that the regular
order had been called for, and that the con-
veDtion could proceed to the presentation
of Presidential candidates.
With breathless interestth huge crowd in
the galleries centered their eyes on the
smooth face of the reading clerk as he took
the roll of States. and in clear, resonant
tones he began. Alabama. Arkansas. Cali
fornia rang out, and when the name of Colo
RADIO was reached Senator Wolcott arose
and addressed the chair.
In remote corner Of the gallery some
one caught the inspiration of the moment
and up went a yell that took the conven-
tion off its feet. 1t was the first gun by the
Blaine forces. and the cheers were loud and
long, and as the Senator mounted the plat
form he was cheered again and again.
During the delivery of Wolcott's address
the widest tumult prevailed, and after a
while he was compelled to await the SUBJ
sidence of applause until he could proceed.
When he referred to the office-holders there
was tornado Of applause, and when he
mentioned the name of Blaine there was a
cyclone.
A few moments later the white head of
Uncle Dick Thompson raised itself in the
air as Indiana was called, and the Harrison
men turned themselves loose. Hats and
banners waved aloft and cheers rang out
from thousands Of sturdy throats. From
the time Uncle Dick left his seat until he
reached the platform it was one continuous
ovation. Spectators and delegates alike
joined the great demonstration. When he
had placed Harrison in nomination Rhody

MINNEAPOLIS Convention HalD, June
l0.-The opening was delayed by the noise
aud caucusing of delegates in groups in
various parts of the hail, and both sides
seemed desirous of all the time possible to
get their forces ranged into something like
fighting line. The combination making had
its chief centers near the Ohio. Pennsyl-
vania, Wisconsin, Indiana and Kansas dele
cations, and dark-horse gossip grew with
every moment.
AT II :35 o'clock Chairman Mckinley
raped sharply with his gavel for order.
When something like order was established
Rev. Wayland Hoyt of Minneapolis offered
PRAYER, and at its conclusion Senator Quay
announced that Daniel Martin of Phladel-
phia had been elected as the Pennsylvania
member of the national committee.
The question came up then on the re-
maiuder OF the majority report OF the ere
dentials committee. Quay. in order 10 get to
ballotng at once, announced that they would
not oppose its adoption aud the report was
adopted by acclamation.
A separate vote was dema nded by the
Mormon contesting delegates of Utah on
their case, but the majority report was
adopted and the Mormons were declared
ineligible.
AT the request of Chairman Duffield, the
Michigan delegation was allowed to retire
for consultation.
Mrs. Helen Foster of the w. G. T. u. ad-
dressed the convention. which paid great
attention TO and applauded her literally.

It,
MINNEAPOLIS Convention HalD June 10
George A. Knight was to have sec
onded the nomination of Blaine, and
would have done so but for an error
of the clerk in calling the roll. Cali
fornis, Of course. was passed at first, in
order to give Wolcott of Colorado an op-
opportunity to place the name of Blaine
before the convention, and the name Of Cal
ifornia was not called second time. Be-
sides this the convention was thoroughly
tired of oratory before knights turn could
have come around, and the latter speakers
were listened to with great impatienee.
What the convention wanted was the result
and not wind.
Pillsbury also. who had been selected by
the Harrison managers TO second the nom-
ination of the President in behalf Of the ad-
ministration Republicans. got lost in the
shuttle and was not heard from. This was
due TO the fact that the order OF the speak
ers had been changed. 1t was understood
in the beginning that Harrison was to be
presented to the convention by BEr. Depew.
The first seconding speech was to have been
made by Dick Thompson Of Indiana. Fol
lowing him Pllsbury was to have aired his
eloquence and displayed his loyalty to his
friend. the President.
For some reason or other, when the name
of Indiana was called by the clerk, Thomp-
son placed Harrison in nomination, and
thus disarranged the whole programme.
Pillsbury was disappointed, but forgot 1t in
his pleasure over the result

at the West Hotel at which were present
Quay, Clarkson, Platt, Filley, Foraker and
others. 1t is supposed that they discussed
the situation in all its phases. and the gray
light Of morning was creeping in at the
windows before they separated What oc-
CURED at the consultation no one on the
outside knows Some believed that they
would decide, in view of the test vote which
had been taken the night before, not to
place tho name Of Blaine before the cOnven-
tion. while others said that they were at
tempting to formulate plan by which they
could accomplish the nomination Of Nc
Kinley.
The general belief in the light OF later
events is that the latter plan was the one
discussed. This was shown by the fact that
when the roll of States was called in the
convention to-day not one vote was given
either from Ohio or Pennsylvania to Blaine.
After placing him in nomination and sub
iecting him to the danger of defeat they all
deserted him on the battlefield and left him
10 20 down alone in the wreck. He was
simply slaughtered in the most cruel and
brutal manner in order that they might be
able, if possible, to even things up by de-
feating the President. For the work which
they did they are being severely censuTed,
ard the friends Of Blaine, equally with the
friends Of the President, are casting upon
them the blame Of allowing Mr. Blaine to
suffer defeat which could have been easily
avoided.
They simply grasped straw and helped
by casting a number OF votes for Mckinley
early on the ballot to cause q stampede
which would prevent the nomination on
the first rollcall. For time, at least, it
looked as if their scheme was likely
to succeed, but the better judgment
of the convention prevailed in spite Of the
shouts that greeted the votes for Mckinley,
vention off its feet.
Beginning with Alabama, down the long
row of States and Territories, Harrison
steadily gained on the test vote Of the night
before and when Ohio was reached he was
short but 90 votes of the nomination. When
thai delegation was called, however, there
was but one vote recorded for the Presi-
dent, and that was Mckinley himself, who
demanded that the roll of delegates be
called This was loudly cheered by the con-
vention, who recognized that he was keep
ing faith with his friend, the President,
and deprecatlng any attempt TO erect nis
own nomination.
Still, however, there were many delegate:
who began to think that Mckinley might
possibly be chosen, and quite a number o.
votes which logically belonged to Harrison
were cast for the Ohio man.
This gave a new aspect to the situation
and the Blaine howlers turned themselye!
loose with a vengeance The Harrison
forces, as a general thing, stood theil
ground firmly aud refused to be shaken by
the terrific cheering that went up time after
time for Mckinley.
Before Wisconsin was called the Presi
dent had clear majority of the votes, and
when Indian Territory, the last on the roll
cast her two votes for Harrison. the Grea
fight was done, and the President was
winner with 52j votes, or "a to spare.

in the nomination Of Benjamin Harrison.
Just imagine, if you can, five continuous
hours of deafening noise and confusion. five
solid hours Of endless cheers aud waving
banners.
Picture to yourself Il, 900 eager spectators
with nerves wrought up to the highest
pitch all massed in one great hail. while
the giants of the party grappled in a last
desperate struggle for national supremacy,
and you will form some idea of the stirring
scene. 1t was spectacle to be remembered
for lifetime.
Men whose names are familiar in every
household arrayed themselves in line OF
battle and fought with determination and
pluck that was magnificent. Quay was
pitted against John C. New. and Depew
was fighting hand to hand with Warner
Miller Spo0ner of Wisconsin and Woleott
of Colorado, giants, both of them in debate,
were in the van of the contending hosts.
Eustis Of Minneapolis, smiling. affable and
bland. but a fighter to the core, crossed
swords with Uncle Dick Thompson, the
white-haired veteran of dozen Presidential
battles. and made last stand for his idol,
Blaine.
In it all, too, must not be overlooked Mrs

tion on the female suffrage question. and

Out sat calm and impressive as his name
rang out from 1000 tongues back in the
center Of the Texas delegation.
Close to the side of N. w. Quincy sat
Judge Norton of Dallas. whose silvery locks
are yet unshorn, and who tapped the floor
at times with the cane given him By Henry
Clay at Ashands, away back in the forties.
Malone, with his broad -brimmed white
hat swinging carelessIy in his hand, walked
in with springy stride and bowed to the
storm of applause which greeted him.
Woieott of Colorado, young, handsome
and eloquent, attired in a close-6tting cut
away coat buttoued carefully and revealing
only the knot Of white four-in-hand tie.
stroked his brown mustache carefully as he
sat down by Senator Teller.

Hur," and one of the most distinguished
looking men In the gathering, sat with the

long mustache sat off face Of remarkable
power.

The morning call., 1892-06-11

1t was Mrs. Carson Lake, the wife of the
secretary, who had led the cheering. 1t
was not she alone, however, for Mrs Kerens,
wife of the National Committeeman from
Missouri, sat behind her, and both started
the cheering by waving parasols.
The delegates climbed on their chairs to
see these two lone women on the platform
behind the chairman cheering and encOur-
aging the applause.
The fact that Mrs. Kerens Is delegate
instructed for Harrison made the incident
all the more interesting to those in the con-
vention who knew it.
Big Tom Reed. who sat in frontof Mrs.
Kerens. took up the movement. His face
melted into a broad grin, and he stood up
waving silk flag in honor Of his old-time
enemy.
All over the convention hall the dele
gates were crying, "Blaine, Blaine. James
G. Blaine"
Delegates opened their umbrellas and
waved them aloft. One Of these umbrellas
was white, with Blaine's name upon IL in
big black letters, and was waved by an
Illinois delegate standing on his seat. and
he led the applause on the floor like the
leader of a chorus in a comic opera. This
delegate tried TO get the platform to propose
three cheers for Mrs. Kerens. but in the
confusion he might as we'll have talked to a
blank wall.
1t was about this time that the Har-
rison men started some Kissing. but it was
drowned by an outburst of cheers that fol-
lowed.
Then the band brought up the rear of the
procession with burst of melody. and just
as the crowd in the galleries and on the
floor started the stampede again, Mckinley
began to pound with his gavel, and at last
succeeded in bringing order out of chaos.
Then came the mastery effort of Depew.
The cheers were deafening as he advanced
and addressed the chairman, and his speech
was punctuated with thunders OF applause.
As he closed the monster banners were
waved aloft and pandemOnium reigned
again in the immense hall. A crayon por-
trait of the President was borne in and took
the convention by surprise. and its appear
ance served only to redouble the demon
strations, and everything in the hall that
could be raised aloft was waved in the air.
The bearers of the portrait advanced, and
a scene of wild riot ensued. Out in the
street for blocks the stream of cheers could
be distinctly heard, and when the Blaine
banner, borne by a Chicago delegate, met
the Harrison portrait in the middle of the
central aisle, the spectacle was one sur
passing the power of description.
Blaine howls were intermingled with
Harrison yells, and every delegate from
Maine to California climbed to the seat of
his chair and sounded the war cry OF his
faction. For 80 minutes the tornado of
enthusiasm swept in and out of the great
hall, to subside for moment and then to
rise again in one mighty chorus that shook
the very foundations OF the building.
At last the roll was ended and the ballot
called, HARRY NJ. TOD.
