CHICAGO, June 23.-The delegates
we're slow in arriving and it was nearly
3o'clock before the chairman raped for
order. The delegates looked much
fatigued from the seige of last night and
we're not in a hurrah mood.
The arrival of numerous clubs sound
ing the praises of their respective candi-
dates for vice-president, had the effect,
however, of revivlng interest, and
when order was restored there existed a
fairly good feeling all around.
Boies was not a candidate for vice.
president and Iowa refused to present
his name. New York declared at once
against Gray, the Combination candi-
date with Cleveland, saying they would
take any one else but him.
Nominating speeches wers limited to
five minutes and each seconding speech
to two minutes.
Arkansas gave its place to Indiana
and Lamb presented the name of Gray.
He said, with an Indianian on the ticket
victory was sure.
Colorado yielded to Illinois and
Worthington nominated Stevenson. of
Illinois.
A LITTLE MORE WATER.
About this time another heavy storm
set in and the speaker was not only wet
but his voice was drowned by the noise.
After some interruption he proceeded,
predicting democratic success and if
Stevenson was On the ticket, he was GER
tain the electoral vote of Illinois would
be cast for the democratic ticket.
Connecticut and Kansas seconded
Gray and Kentucky seconded Steven
SON.
Uhl of Michigan presented the name
of Morse of Michigan, and like his pre-
decessor promised the earth.
Governor Flower arose when New
York was called and said his state had
no candidate to present, but seconded
the nomination of Stevenson.
Texas and Virginia followed for Ste-
venson and Washington joined the Gray
column.
General Bragg nominated Mitchell of
Wisconsin.
"PIGs IN THE CLOVER"
At this %juncture there was another
heavy storm and all business stopped.
The band struck up and the audience
began singing a campaign song
"Grover, Grover, four more years of
Grover; in he goes, out they go, then
we'll be in clover"
