When Arkansas was called the delegation
gave way for New Jersey, and Governor Alb.
bett, Of that State, nominated Grover Clevc-
land in the following speech
I'm presenting the name TO this conven-
ton speak for the United Democracy of the
State OF New Jersey, whose loyalty to Demo.
cratic principles, faithful services TO the
party, and whose contributions TO its success
entitle IL to the respectful consideration of
the Democracy of the United States. Its

citizen, the idol OF the Democratic masses

arose to their feet in burst OF unparalleled
applause. The spectacle of 1900 persons
ffantically cheering for Cleveland presented
q scene snch as was never before witnessed
in this country.
New York being reached, II. c. Dewitt
took the floor to nominate Senator David b.
Hill. Colonel John X. Fellows, of New
York, seconded the nomination of Hill.
While the demonstration during the New
York Senator's speech was al its height one
of Chicagos thunder storms passed over
the Wigwam. The delegates caught the
idea and out-thundered the thunder itself
with their howls and yells. During the in
termission which was made necessary the
