CLEVELAND NOMINATED
At 1923 q. m. this Thursday morning,
Grover Cleveland was nominated for
President on the first ballot by the follow
cLEyELMp,s EIRsT NOMINATION.

In Chicago on July II, 1884, Cleve-
land was first nominated for President
on the second ballot. The array of
candidates then Included Bayard,
Thurman, Hoadly, Randall, Mcdonald
Hendricks and Butler of Massachusetts,
The New York delegation under the
leadership of Daniel Manning was solid
for Cleveland, which is another striking
point of contrast. John Kelly aud
Tammany were opposed to Cleveland,
but toe State delegation was fortified
against Tammany under the unit rule
There were then $50 votes in the con-
ventlon, and the first ballot stood as
follows: Cleveland 392, Bayard 10,
Thurman So, Randall IS, Mcdonald So,
Carlisle 27, Flower, 4, Butler 26, Hoadly
3 and Tildeu and Hendricks each. On
the second b lot Pennsylvania with
drew Randall and gave Cleveland AZ
Cleveland's vote was 475, more than n
majority, and changes gave him the
necessary two.thirds.

It is now learned upon what appears

1t is now learned upon what appears
as reliable authority that the reason
why the Evening Rep failed to get
swift and reliable report of the Mime
apolis Convention, was because the
editor, who went on the Ohio special
train to report the convention, went out
to Lake Minnetonka to learn the latest
style of swimming on his back in deep
water. An eye witness states that, with
a wind imitation of less than 4 ounces,
the editor floated for 9 minutes, with
out beef bladder or paddle.

THE Evening Rep. is worried again
because the NEWS DEMOCRAT is beat
ing its boiler plate report on the Chi
cago Convention. Every Republican
in Canton knows, who knows enough
to read the News DEMOCRAT for news,
that we printed far better, fuller and
more accurate report from the Mime
apolis Convention than the Rep. The
Rep. had its ostensible editor on the
floor of the Convention, but he was
evidently dazed or lost in the surround
ings, and the Rep had to rely upon the
pick ups of its Cleveland agent, and
clippings, from the 2 o'clock, or first
edition, of the NEws-DEMoCRAT.

THE Chicago Herald, which makes
personal reference to all the Ohio dele
gates, has the following mention of our
18th district delegates,
"Ihe eighteenth district is repre-
seuted by w. X, l.. Warwick, a coal
operator at Massillon, and John G..
Welty, lawyer at Canton, the home of
Governor Mckinley. In this district
there was the most decided fight be-
tween the Cleveland and antf. Cleve-
land Democrats in the selection of dele
gates aod the most pronounced anti
Cleveland victory, both Warwick and
Welty being opposed to the nomination
of any man from New Y York."

IT was fitting and proper that the
great National Democratic Convention
should pass a vote Of sympathy to Jas
&. Blaine, in his terrible aflliction-the
death of Emmons Blaine, his favorite
son. Blaine belongs to his country.
He is the greatest man in his party; -
and greater than his party. The Demo
cratic party is the party of the people
and is full of all the kindly charities of
our better human nature. Brave men
love all other brave men, and the great
shout that went up through Demo
cratic threats from Democratic
hearts when Blaine's na&,; ~wS3r
mentioned in the convention, is by far
the greatest tribute to Blaine, as man,
as statesman; as an American; that
the great son of Maine has ever re-
ceiyed. We are proudeT of the Demo-
cratic party for this touching tribute.

JAMES G. BLAINE's arrival at Chicago
to mourn over aud bury his son En-
mons in the midst of~tae excitement
inevitable OF the opening day of the
Democratic National Convention is, all
things considered, one of the saddest

has ever been surpassed. The afflicted

THE greatest bet offered is proposed
by Dan Rice, the ex-clown and show

offer: 1--WE got $1,000 acres of prime
land in Perry county, Tennessee, and
its worth S25O,OOO. III bet that land
against 100000 cash that Cleveland, if
nominated, will carry the state of New

Mr.. McKINLEY's MouLDY CHESTNUT
From the EYenInG Post.

from the Evening fosh
What Mckinley said upon taking the
chair is extremely commonplace and
has been repeated by him hundred
times. "We propose to raise our money
for public expenses" he said, "by tax.
ing the products of other nations rather
than by taxing the products of our
own" Why, then, was the duty on
raw sugar repealed? That is the
product of other nations. We received
$50DO00)0 of revenue from these sugar
producing countries, according to the
Mckinley idea, by taxing their products.
The Treasury is sadly in want of that
revenue at this time. There will be
abundant opportunity between now
and November for Mckinley and others
to explain why they thus exempted
foreigners from tax of S50,0O0,O00
which the said foreigners had been pay
ing for many years without the slight
est complaint.

The Quaker City safe from the Incur

PHILADELPHIA, Jan. 20.-Although
there does not seem any unusual noise
and hustle in the offices of the war and
navy departments in this city, it is not
because plans have not been completed
for the defense of this city. Major Ray
mond, of the United States engineer
corps, in reply to questions as to what
there was to prevent foreign war ves-
sci from coming up the Delaware river
and bonn harding the city, said: II am
not at liberty to talk, but as far as the
plans for the defense of the harbor is
concerned, they have been prepared
for two years, and all the require
ments for quick defense considered.
A number of torpedoes have been re-
ceived here and distributed to certain
places along the Delaware river, the
points being known only to the war de-
partment. Besides, this government
has two torpedo casemates erected be-
tween this city and Wilmington, and in
caee of an emergency, material is at
hand to erect several more further down
the river. In these classmates will be
stationed the electricians who will have
control of the torpedoes, which will be
placed in the river and be OF two kinds
lone kind which will explode with coa--
tact, and the other kind which will ex-
plode at the will of the electrician in the

QUIET IN CHILE.
scHLEY NOR SURPRISED.

The Captain of tho Baltimore Reviews
the Procurator Fiscars Beport.
VALLEJO, Jan. 20-Captain Schley of
the Baltimore was this morning shown
the report OF the procurator fiscal OF Val
paraiso. He said
II am not at all surprised at this re-
port 1t is exactly what expected.
Such conclusions were rendered neces-
sary to sustain the Chilean contentious
in the case. Regarding the rejection by
the procurator of Langen's and john
sons testimony ON the ground that their
stories did not agree perfectly. the cap
tain said these two men we're our
strongest witnesses, testifying as they
did, directly to the shooting of Rggin
by soldiers. The court had to find some
plea for the rejection of their eviden, e.
and hit on the fact that they appeared
not to have known each other before the
riot occurred. This is very natural.
Langen was not q member Of the Balti-
more's crew at this time. He was a
sailor on an American vessel wrecked
in Valparaiso harbor some days before,
and enlisted on the Baltimore week
after the riot.
nThere is no possible doubt that Rig
gin was killed by rifle bullet fired by a
soldier. Blood poured from his wound
and coverd Johnson's shirt. This shirt
was shown to the Valparaiso court, and
vet the fiscal states that he rejected
Johnson's testimony because there were
no blood stains. The procurator's state
ment that no one testified who fired the
shots is false, as Johnson and Langin
both testified that soldiers fired them" +"
Regarding the dispute as to the
weapon from which the bullet that
killed Riggin was fred, Captain Schley
said:
'sThis is what knew would occur as
soon as heard that experts had been
summoned. The day after the mob,
the Valparaiso paper stated that one of
the Baltimore's men fired a pistol at a
policeman, missed him and killed Rig
gin. This theory was at once seized
upon by the Chileans. There is
no. pistol in existence that
could inffict such wound. In
order to exonerate the police they,
therefore, called in two physicians as
experts. Only one of them was really a
physician, the other being merely a
hospital dresser, and one who had never
examined Higgins body testified that
the wound was inflicted by a pistol
bullet. This gave the court chance to
reject the entire testimony.
'srhe sentences recommended by the
court in Valparaiso are very curious.
Thus Carlos Gomez, one-armed
Chilean sailor, who confesses having
stabbed Turnbull, is recommended to
be imprisoned for three years, while
Davidson, of my crew, who knocked him
down with a stone in attempting to pre-
vent his doing this, is recommended to
ten or fifteen years imprisonment.
"The procurator's statement that
there is no evidence to show that TurI-
bull and Rggin died from their wounds,
ls really good. suppose. the court
imagines they died from slow eonsump-
tion."

Work Pushed Night and Day In Fitting
War Ships for Action.
VALLEJO, Jan. 20-The navy yard is
very animated nowadays. The force OF
men at work is much larger than before
for wears. Work no longer ceases at
sundown, but is continued by the aid of
electric lights until 10 o'clock at night,
while the distinction between Sunday
and week days has been lost sight OF for
weeks. The most important work in
progress is that on the Baltimore. She
is lying in the stream with coal barges
on each side, from which her bunkers
are being rapidly filled. This has been
going on for three days now, and will
soon be finished. When she has taken
on her full capacity OF HOO tons she will
be able to steam 1000 miles without re-
plenishing.
In an interview this morning Admiral
irwin said: ''All the Baltimore's re-
pairs are now finished except those to
the engines. These are receiving thor
ough overhauling and will not be COM
pleted for ten days or more. She cannot
90 to sea in less than two weeks. Many
of her officers have been granted short

ly summoned if necessary. / have re-

soon as she arrives. do not know Just
when she will arrive, it may be tomor-
row morning, but the dock is ready for
her whenever she does arrive. AS soon
as she can leave drydock, the monitor
Comanche will take her place there and
have her bottom thoroughly cleaned.
In every other respect the Comanche is
in first-class condition. do not believe,
however, that she will be sent to sea, but
will remain for harbor defense. Nosteps
have been taken, as was reported, to re-
place he two fifteen-inch smooth bores
bv rifles of smaller calibre. The Mohi-
can. a wooden vessel, carrying eight
smooth bores and two rifles, has been
in perfect order for six weeks and could
90 to sea any day. She has 30 far re-
ceiyed no orders to leave the yard.
Work is also being done on the Ranger
and the Alice, but they can be of little
service. The Omaha and Swatara are
laid up and will probably never go to
sea again. The double-turreted moni-
tor Monadnock is lying alongside the
dock, and some work is being done on
her, but her engines are not in, and
none OF her armor is ready. She is
practically out of the question Jas

The admiral said in conclusion; "We
