The Chairman-The question is on
the adoption of the amendment offered
by the gentleman from Colorado.
The motion was put to the convention
and declared lost.
The Chairman-The question is nov
on the adoption of the platform.
This action was voted Oh by yeas and
nays, and carried.
The Chairman-The next order of
business, gentlemen, is the call of the
roll of states for the nomination Of can
didates for the office of president. The
clerk Will proceed with the call of the
roll.
The clerk commenced the call of the
roll, and got as far as Alabama, when
Mr.. FELTON,, of Arkansas, moved an
adjournment. The chairman paid no
attention to it.
The clerk again called the roll, and
Arkansas yielded to New Jersey. The
clerk thererpon called New Jersey,
when eXGov. Albeit. of that state. came
forward 10 the platform, accompanied
by enthusiastic cheers from the Cleve-
land wing of the convention, it being
understood that Mr.. Albeit was to
nominate ex-President Cleveland.
The Chairman-The chair presents to
the convention Gov. Leon Albeit, of
New Jersey.
A fresh instMiment of yells greeted
Gov. Albeit as he faced the convention.

STOPPED BY A STORM.
A Drenching Rain Forces an In
Permission.

On the conclusion of Gov. Abbett's
speech renewed outburst of Cleveland
enthusiasm followed. which did not
cease for ten or more minutes. The
confusion was greatly heightened
by the violent storm, which poured
down torrents of rain upon the
open roof of the building and soon
drenched the vast assembly. The noise
of the rain upon the boards overhead
and the rolling of the thunder, added
to the shouts and cries of the dele
gates ana spectators, rendered it i'm
possible to proceed with business. The
chairman Of the convention had to
abandon his position at his desk on ac-
count of the downpouring torrent, and
an umbrella was raised over his head
like Chinese sunshad9 over the lnan-
DARN in the play of The MikadO."
The secretary at last prOceededed in
desperation with the call of the states,
beginning with California. Hon.
George f. Patton responded on behalf
of the delegation, secOnding the nomi-
nation of Grover Cleveland, amidst APP
plauSe.
Colorado was the next state called,
when t. }. O'Donnell announced to the
chair that Colorado gave way to New
York. Hon. William G. De Witt, from
the New York delegation, was put for
ward to make the speech putting in
nomination Senator David b. Hill, and
he came forward upon the platform for
that purpose. The chairman said:
Gentlemen of the convention, desire
to present to you Hon. William G. De
Witt. of the state of New York. At this
point the continued rain storm and con-
fusion in the hall made it impossible for
the speaker to be heard by more than a

delegated that duty to young
man of extraordinary stature. who
jumped on a chair and held the picture
as high as he could. Frederick Opp, of
Texas, appeared in the midst of the
confusion with a Cleveland portrait,
which he waived dpfiantly above his
head. Some one rolled newspaper
into a ball and threw it at MI
Opp. who lodged and still continued
his performance. Finally Hillite tore
the obnoxious portrait out of the hands
of the gentleman from Texas and threw
it at the face of the man from the Lone
Star state. While the demonstration
was at its height one of Chicago's thun-
der storms passed over the Wigwam,
and with its deep tones emphasized the
dem onStratiOn for New York senator.
The delegates caught the idea and out
thundered the thunder itself with their
bowls and yells. While the excitement
was at its height Cleveland man on the
west side of the house sung out, "Hur-
rah for Grover" In moment he was
raped under the ear by Hill man.
and lively scuffle was on at once. A
lieutenant of police and another man
jumped in and Quieted the fracas, re-
moving both of the pugi!ists from the
hall. Twenty-four minutes the demon
stration lasted, when the exhausted
delegates and audience relapsed into
their seats. and Gov. Albeit was per-
mitted to continue.

rah for Hill.
Gov. Albeit proceeded with his re-
marks until he alluded to Senator Hill,
of New York. This was signal for
an outburst of enthusiasm from the
New York delegation. The tumult was
com muhicated to the galleries and to
the platform Of the chairman of the
convention, upon which were seated
many hundreds of distinguished visitors.
DR.. Mary Walker created a diversion in
favor of Senator Hill by arising at the
back of the platform upon an elevated
seat and waving her handkerchief and
shouting for Hill. Gov. ALBEIT could
not contin lie his remarks or be heard for
at least twenty-five minutes.
Unlike when Cleyeland's boom was
or and the New York delegation re-
manned glum and silent, now. under the
insp iratiOn of HIPS name. they rose in
their seats and waved everything they
could lay their hands on. Gen. SickleS

the Hill men to equal the Cleveland
demonstration, not only in time, but in
quantity OF noise. Among the delegates
from New York who were the loudest
and most vigorous in their demonstra-
ton were Delaney Nicoll, Corporation
Counsel Clarke. Mayor Grant, William
J. Ellis, David Leventriit and Police
Commissioner James Martin. Dick
Croker felt that his time had come. and,

replied to Col. Villas as follows:

split wide .Open and after fifty-twO
hours of unbrOken discussion in the
platform committee, the best that the
moderate and conservative members of

The sentence of the chairman was
drowned IN roar or applause and
Kisses, after which Col. Jones, editor of
the st. Louis Republic, took stand in
front of the charman's desk and said: :
Mr.. Chairman and Gentlemen of the
Convention: In behalf of the commit
tee on resolutions, wish to say that we
are willing TO accept the amendment of
the gentleman from Ohio as an addition
to section 80
At this point of Col. Jones' remarks
there arose in the hall such tumult of
Kisses and applause that his voice was
drowned, and he could not be heard.
After waiting patiently for some
moments for the noise and tumult to
cease, Col. Jones retired in despair.

we're wild with excitement. Some Of
them swung their hats and coats aloft,
while others placed their tiles on canes
or folded umbrellas and waved them
frantically in the air. After about eight
minutes of pandemonlum, the chair
thought it was about time to take
hand in the disturbance, but it was IN
vain.
Away off at the right of the audience
a few voices raised salute which
swelled to a great volume of sound to
the tune of "Grover, Grover. Grover
Gle veland." A number of the delegates
join ed in the chorus, but thousands of
feet beat time 10 the new political song.
Portraits of Cleveland started into
view at various points, and as each one
arose above the heads OF the people in
its netghborhood there was Immediately
a storm of applause. A number of
Kisses were heard, and the cheers be-
came for a moment less vociferous; but
it would never do to be Kissed down on
an occasion like this, and after an i'll
slant of ebb the cheers had the best Of
it, but the wigwam rang again with the

Mr.. Owens, of Kentueky-We don't
know what the roll is being called for.
Chairman-Undrr the order of busl-
ness the roll of the states is now to be
called for nominees for president.
Gov. Albeit proceeded without re-
ceiving more than mild applause until
he reached that portion of his address
where he said: IF there was any doubt
existing in my mind of the result of this
contest, would not urge OH behalf of
my state the views in favor of Grover
CleveIand;" the mention Oftthe name of
the Sage of Buzzard's Bay was signal
for thunderous applause.
An alternate for one of the Michigan
delegates attempted to carry the Cleve-
land banner, which had once before to-
day aroused such enthusiasm, over into
the New York delegates. He sought
TO enter at the row of seats where Gen..
Sickles sat. Great excitement prevailed
when Gen. Sickles resisted the intru-
sion and passed back the offending
alternate. A personal encounter be-
tween Gen. Sickles and the offending
delegate was only averted by the
prompt action of number of the Mich
igan delegates, who rushed to the scene
and compelled the bearer of the Cleve-
land banner to move away.

Mr.. Patterson, of Colorado, represent
ing the minority report of the committee
on resolutions, took the platform and
said:
MI Chairman and Gentlemen OF the
Democratic Conventions: There was an
other matter of difference between the
members of the committee on resolu-
tons. The difference relates to the
coinage plank. Kisses. We demand that
all paper currency shall be kept at par

upon this policy as especially necessary
for the protection of the farmers and
laboring classes-the first and most de-
fenseless victims Of unstable money
and a tluctuating currency. If you will
bear with me a short time | will en-
| deavor to tell you why this difference

age men of the West and South came to
this convention with extreme views or
the coinage question. On the contrary
they are satisfied to receive from this
body its expression of faith as the most
pronounced opponent of free coinage

that free coinage of silver shall prevail

That's right, that's right
The Chairman-The question Is on
the amendment offered by the gentle
man from Ohio, which is motion to
strike out and insert. and upon that
call of the roll of states is asked.
There were several calls OF "Mr.
Chairman" by delegates wishing to be
recognized, but he refused to recognize
any one.
John E. Lamb, of Indiana, arose in
his char and said: Il want to know
how many and what members of the
committee signed that minority report. "
The chair refused 10 recognize Mr..
Lamb. and amid great confusion the
latter sat down.
Mr.. WatterSOn - The motion is to
strike out and insert-an indiyisible mo-
ton.
There were cries of Call the roll,
call the roll"
The chairman was requested by sew
eral delegates 10 again state the motion
for the information of the convention.
There was still great confusion. in the
midst of which the chairman said: THE
call of states will be begun as soon as
there is order"
Mr. PettuS. of Alabama-Alabamad de-
, sireS to answer the rOll-call.
The Chairman-We cannot do any
thing until we have order.
The confusion continued, and the
chairman pounded in vain for order.
There were cries of ''Mr. Chairman" all
over the house from members desiring
to be recognized. The confusion in
creased, and the chairman resumed his
pounding of the gavel. Members kept
calling mir. Chairman. Mr.. Chairman"
and the chairman continued to reiterate
his statement that he would recognize
no one until the aisleS were cleared and
the convention came to order.

the platform back to the committee on

There were vociferous cries of mo,

Mr.. MuldIow-If that motion is in

The greatest confusion prevailed, and
none of the delegates who had so long
been clamoring for recognition had as
yet relinquished their demand to be
recognized. After a scene of great con-
fusion. the secretary proceeded with the
roll call of the states and the result was
