Mr.. Daniels paid warm tribute to him,
but the galleries would not listen to him
and very little that he said was heard
beyond the chairman's desk. He went
right on, though, regardless of the cat
calls, and the cries which almost
drowned the sound of his voice.
AS the interrupters of Mr.. Daniels
speech grew more and more vociferous,
Bourke Cochran took his stand in the
second aisle, and raising his hand aloft,
said: 'Mr. Chairman, if this mob can
not be silenced, and if New York can
not have hearing in this convention
she is ready to leave it,
The excitement which this declara-
ton caused brought about temporary
calm and the chairman, knocking loudly
with his gavel, said he regretted the
confusion, but it was not the delegates,
but the occupants of the galleries who
were creating the disturbance. This
was followed by cries from all parts of
the convention to clear the galleries.

Mr.. Cochran said: Mr.. Chairman, If
there is no objection l will take the
platform, which he did. Mr.. Cochran
said that as the state was threatened
with an invasion, his delegates had
asked him to present plain statement
of the political condition there.

much for them.
