CONVENTION HALL, CHICAGO, Juno 90.
The convention reconyened at 8
o'clock. Every spectator or delegate,
who had wigwam ticket, know full
we'll as no entered the barracks before
the session was over the battle would
be on. The assumption that there
would be skirmish was based partly
on the fact that tho committee Oh reso-
lWtions would probably report. It was
believed that Bourke Cockran's warm
ing Of the morning that he would have
business with the convention later,
meant entertainment for the crowd.
Partly, too, tho anticipation Of the
throng was based upon the conviction
that another Democratic presidential
nominee would have been placed in
history before tho session should have
ended.
lhe atmosphere was charged heavily
with moisture. Tho men in the CALLER
los took off their coats. How the
women maintained life none but them-
selvcs knew. Now York's delegation,
with Mr.. Croker at tho head, came first
into tho hall. A cry Of Hill went up.
but sound OF escaping steam shot out
from the floor aud grow to a whistltng,
Kissing storm. The great tarong, how
ever, subsided when Chairman Wilson
thumpcd tho desk with q mallet and
the session had begun. Then the sun
was shining dull yellow through the
heavy mir, the crowd reeked and
steamed. Almost physical discomfort
prevailed, but there was business to be
done and the interest in what should
occur drcw individual attention some-
what from individual suffering.
Rev. Thomas Reed, Of Cedar Rapids,
Iowa, was present at 6:35 p. M, and he
offered prayer, which, while charac-
terized BY high dignity, was strong, and
eiicted applause at its close. The tenn.
per Of the crowd was one OF quick dem
onstration. Tho band started "Amer-
lea"
Ex.Secretary Whitney entered at 6:l0
p. IN. and took place on the chair
mans platform.
cAMPDEIL's MISSIONARY TOUR.
Governor Campbell at Gals p. m.
started on a final tour Of the delega'
tions, presumably on missionary err
rand. He first made his way to Michi-
gan's chairs, and the entire body OF del
egates from that state leaped upon
their chairs and eheered while Don
Dickinson greeted him. The tour was
continued amid cheers.
At6:24 Delegate Charles n. Jones, OF
Missouri, chairman OF the resolutions
committee, appeared upon the plat
form. Addressing tho convention he
said: ~ am instructed by the COM
mittee on resolutions to present to you
as a report OF the committee the follow
ing resolutions and move their adop.
tion. In order thatyou may more dis
tinctly hear what the committee has
prepared, intend to ask q gentleman
who is as familiar as myself with the
phraseology OF tho platform to read 1t
And when it has been read l shall
move the previous question upon the
adoption OF the platform. (Cries OF

/. L. Patterson, OF Colorado, who nd
vanccd to tho platform, said: In view
Of tho statement just made, | will say

mittco On resolutions, and 1 desire to
announce that that minority expects to
ba heard aud to present its report be-
foro tho previous question shall bc put.
Quick cheers greeted this announce

A CLEVELAND DEMONSTRATIONS.
Then ox.Socrctary Villas commenced
10 read the resolutions atG:2S. but when
hc reached tho phrase "From Cleveland
10 Madison" there was quick shout OF
ono voice noar the platform. II was
lost, however, in - flash, for it soomed
as il with one impulse tho entire 10000
people lcapcd upon thoir chairs, and
with hats and handkorchiets in the air
10000 threats lot looseyel land screams
that shook the heavy air and almost
made tho barracks quivor.
In flash white satin banner heavy
with gold fringe shot aloft and was
moved to tho centre aisle, It was car;
riod by Gen. Sickle, OF Michigan, and
on one side was picture OF Mr.. Cleve-
land. Tho first outbreak was a murm ar,
but now the savagery Of noise and din
that rose swept aud rolled from side to
side Of the great wigw1ln and rolled
around the amphithcatre,
A man in the rear OF the delegates
hoisted picture of David, B. Hill.
Quick as human impulse moves, hos.
tilo hand ripped it from the standard
and toro it up whilo hisses for and
arainst tho act swept in wave
around tho hall. Thon came into
yiow a crimson banner. A sturdy
Boios man borc it aloft and waved 1t
constantly, while the mass OF sweltering
pooplo, il possible, awelled tho din and
storm of sound. Tho tempest flowed
until G:7 D. M, when Don Dickinson,
Of Michigan, caused the Michigan pan
nor to ha carried from view in ordor
that business might be resumed. There
wcre Kisses from the crowd that the
guidon and baton OF its applause should
be removed. Through all this Tamma-
ny's mon in tho centre aisle sat grim
and silent, neithcr kissing Cleveland
nor chccring Hill. Its thunderous dis
approval, held perfectly in leash, chal-
lonrcd admiration even from those who
opposed tho Manhattan Indians, II:
nally, at G:lS. Mr.. Villas again resumed
tho reading OF tho PLATFORM.
[Tho majority report will be found in
another column. =,
Tho denuuciation OF measures IKE
the force bill was loudly chcercd. Col
Jones moved tho adoption OF the plat
form. Mr.. Neil, OF Ohio, being recog-
nized, said: As representative from
tho state Of Ohio, upon tho committee
on resolutions give notice OF my In
tention 10 present to tho convention, ar
