to poll their delegations preparatory to re
sponding to the roll call. 1t was ordered
that the delegates from Indian Territory
and Alnska be entitled to vote on the presi-
Dental ballot.
Alabama, the first state called. responded
with fifteen votes for Harrison and seven
for Mckinley. DeafeninR cheers greeted
the entrance of tbs distinguished Ohio
governor into the presidential contest.
When Ohio was reached there occurred the
most dramatic incident ever witnessed in a
national convention. that of a presidential
the vote cast for him by his own state.
"Ohio gives two votes for Harrison and
forty four for Mckinley" said ex-Gov.
Foraker, and pandsmonium of enthus-
iasm greeted the announcement showing
that Harrison had lost twenty-seven votes
in Ohio. After the cheering ceased Nc
kinley arose and in clear voice said: II
am delegate from that state" After a
breathless pause, Foraker rose and said:
'But you have been retired from this dele
CATION, Mr.. Chairman, by your election to
the craftsmanship of this convention. Your
alternate has taken your place, and we no
longer know you as member of the Ohio
delegation.
The generous action of Foraker towards
the man who but recently had been identi-
fed with the opposition faction in Ohio
evoked all the better impulses of the vast
audience and resulted in loud applause.
''The chair overrules the point of order,"
said Mckinley, ''and asks the secretary of
the convention to call the roll" This
called forth another ovation from the Har-
rison delegates in admiration of his loyal
support of the presidents. The secretary of
the convention called the first name on the
Ohio list, that of VIM. Mckinley. Jr. II
vote for Benjamin Harrison" said the
great American protectlonist, and the graf
flying cheers which resounded through the
hall were quieted only when the object OF
all this enthuslasm waved the gavel to re-
store order. Joseph B. Foraker" shouted
the clerk, and there was breathless sus-
pense. "William Mckinley. Jr.," said the
ex-governor, and this time it was the fiery
Foraker who for loyalty to the governor of
his state deserved the plaudits OF the null
titude. After the individual roll of the
state had been finished it was discovered
that on the first ballot McKinley's alter
nate had actually voted for Harrison in
obedience TO a previous request of McKin-
ley, although the latter doubtless supposed
he had disobeyed this injunction.
When the state of Pennsylvania was

tion. The various delegaJes who up to this
time had apparently been docile under tie
leadership of Senator Quay, reyolted. ana

MINNEAPOLIS. June 10.-The opening of
the convention was delayed by noise and
tho cancusing of delegates in groups in
various parts of the hall. Both sides seemed
desirous of all the time possible to get
their forces into something like fighting
line, the combination making its chief cen-
ters near the Ohio. Pennsylvania, Wiscon-
sin. Indiana and Kansas delegations. Dark
horse gossip grew with every moment. At
l1:55 Chairman Mckinley raped sharply
with the Qavel for order. When something
like order was established, Rev. Wayland
Hoyt. of Minneapolis. offered prayer. At
its conclusion Senator Quay announced
that Hon. David Martin. of Philadelphia,
had been elected the Pennsylvania member
of the national committee. Then the
sylvania, reported that those opposed to
the majority report of tho committee on
credentials would make no further op-
position to it's adoption. Prolonged
cheers followed. The announcement was q
tacit acknowledgement Of defeat by the
opponents Of the majority report, and the
report was adoptsd by acclamation. A
separate vote was demanded by the Nor
mon contesting delegation of Utah on their
case, but the majority report was adopted
and the Mormons were declared ineligible.
At the request of Chairman Duffield
AlRes's manager, Michigan men were allowed
to retire for consultation. A oommunica-
tion from the Woman's Republican associ-
tion of the United States was presented by
ex-senator Miller, of New York, and read
amid applause, and the association was

WAS Witnessed. She delive ed an eloquent
address touching on teform work generally.
She was listened to with close attention,
and literally applauded.
The roll Of states was then called for the
presentation of candidates for the prssi-
dency. When Colorado was reached Sena-
tor Wolcott took the floor to nominate
Blaine. At the conclusion of Wolcott's
speech the call of states was resumed, and
when Indiana was reached the venerable
Richard w. Thompson, ex-secretary of the
navy, rose to nominate Harrison. In re-
sponse to demand he took the platform.
When he skillfully alluded to Wolcott's
speech by saving the candidate whom he
would name did not seek elevation by de-
traction of any other great republican, the
sentiment elicited cheers Of approval. II

States" he concluded. "the warrior states
man, Ben Harrison" A counter demon
stration that, so far az the delegates were
concerned, surpassed the Blaine greeting,
followed Thompson's speech. 1t twas nearly
two minutes before the Harrison cheers
subsidized. The call of states was then re-
sumed. When Michigan was reached there
was breathless pause. but no response from
the Michigan delegation. Whats the
matter with Alges" shouted a southern
delegate. Hes not in it," voice
the nomination Of Blaine. "TherepuSiisan
party honors its great leaders," he said,
but above all stands one man. Every issue

chief Blaine demonstration of the day took
place. 1t seemed to have NO limit The
crowd yolled, waved umbrellas. threw hats
in the air. danced, cheered and when il
seemed that human rover muGt overcome
itself. tho old cry OF "Blaine, Blaine. james

The manifestation was most sens sational.

probably eaualled anything ever seen in a
convention. After twenty M, 90 minutes

Harrison people cheered tumultously, and
then south Dakota followed with solid
vote for Harrison. AZ little later Texas
gave him twenty-five votes.
