SELECTION OF THE VICE PRESIDENT.


The nomination for Vice President is
usually given to the losing side in the
national convention IL the losing side will
take 1t and promise to support the ticket.
w hitelaw Reid, however, was nominated
oy the Harrison men, it being evident that
nominations for Vice President ought to
come from the east, and probably from New
ork. The Harrisonites, after adjourn
ment this afternoon, consulted ex-senator
Platt and Senator QUAY as to the second
place on the ticket. Messrs Platt and
quay, however, respectfully declined to aid
In making selection. They would have
nothing to do with It, Accordingly,
since somebody had to be put on
the ticket with President Harrison, the
dnrrlsonians agreed to leave it TO the New
York delegation generally. At meeting
OF that delegation subsequently,, which
neither Platt or Warner Miller attended
Mr.. Depew and the other Harrison leaders
Tonight favored Whitelaw Reid, with the
explanation that Vice President Morton had
said that he did not want denomination.
REID's BARREL.
As nobody else seemed to want the nomi-
nation the New Workers agreed to present
Mr.. Reid's name to the convention, on the
convention understanding that not only
Mr.. Reid's personal fortune, but that of his
father-in-law, D. o. Mills, would be to
Sohe extent at the service OF the
national committee, nominated Mr.. Reid
by acclamation after an abortive nominal

Southerners who were not in the secret Of

Reed was asked by a reporter to-day
whether he would take the second place,
and Mr.. Reed said that he would; but Mr..
Reed was not at the hall to speak for him.
self. and no one else was there to
speak for him, so the Maine
delegation prevented bis nomination, which
might have been assured without great diff
ticulty, because Whitelaw Reid excited no
enthusiasm whatever, while the name of
Thomas b. Reed was received with evident
interest Nothing could have been more
perfunotory than the nomination of White
law Reid. which was chiefly interesting for
the addition Of another dull speech by Gen.
Horace Porter to the poor oratory of the
day and by the whispered remark which
ran through the convention: Isn't the
Tribune rat officer Messrs. Plat, Quay
Warner Miller, Clarkson and the other Har-
risoniaus were conspicuous by their absence
from the evening session, which ended the
convention as tamely as 1t began. They
have apparently taken 4-years vacation.

midnight. Objection was urged, and after
a conference Gen. Sewell of New Jersey
said the Harrison men would not delay the
convention, but " ould go right along aud
vote.
BOTH SIDES BoAsTFUL.
The morning opened with the Harrison
people still confident, but the Blaine man.
ayers are none the less determined. Chair
man Clarkson said that he had received
large number of telegrams this morning
from prominent men throughout the coun-
try who had heretofore been urging him to
harmontze the opposition in support of the
President, requesting him now to make
every effort to bring about q reconciliation
Of the warning factions by a union on some
man who would be satisfactory to both ele-
ments. Gov. Mckinley. Secretary Rusk,
ex-Speaker Reed ard Senator Allison had
all been suggested in those kilograms
One effect of last nights fight was visible
on all sides on the opening OF the day and
that was that the bitterness of feeling en-
gendered in the contest in the manifesta-
tions of the past week had grown to propor-
tlons which, in a measure, excite the ap-
prehension Of the more conservative re-
publicans. The Harrison people, of course,
were inclined to be considerate. 1t is the
rank and file of the Blaine forces, who,
mourning and refusing to be comforted,
concluded by uttering defiance to the ad-
ministration candidate. Just how lasting
"this feeling will be, of course, no one can
say.
BIG TUMBLE,
A toppling over of presidential booms had
strange parallel to-day witnessed by all
the great crowds OF spectators and dele
gates. Just as they entered the convention
hall the l00-foot high, wonderful design in
barrels that stood near the main entrance
was dashed to pieces and ruined hopelessly
a small Cyclone or something very like it
had done the work. The wreck as 1t dam
gled in midair presented an uucanny ap-
pearance, which with the fact that to-day
was Friday led to talk about hoodooism
and other similar things OF i'll omen that in
weaker moments are the dread of certaiu
classes Of politicians,

scenes Of enthusiasm which had become 90
familiar to the proceedings of the day.
A delegate moved to adjourn until 8
o'clock tonight, and although there was q
disposition to finish up the work at once,
the motion prevailed and the convention
adjourned until that hour.
EDITOR REID FOR VICE PRESIDENT.
Immediately after the adjournment q
rumor went forth that Whitelaw Reid, the
gifted editor OF the New York Tribune, had
been selected by the delegates Of New York
as their candidate for Vice President, and
that he would receive the solid support OF
the Empire state. This report spread with
lightning rapiditY and although it was noe
authoritatIvely confirmed by the New York
delegation the boom of the ex>diplomat az
once became q formidable movement.

A VOTE for Weaver is not a vote
for Cleveland, neither is it a vote
for Harrison. When Mr.. Weaver
was in this State he stated that if
he had enough votes in the electoral
college with the votes from the min
ing States he should expect these
votes, but if he had not enough to
elect him, he would not insist that
the votes must be cast for him if
The silver electors could choose some
other man for the Presidency who
would agree to give them freedom
age. In this case, if Harrison nor
Cleveland have enough votes to elect
them in the college an outside man
like Gresham, Morgan, Bland or
Stewart might be selected. If the
Weaver electors hold the balance of
power, even if they cannot elect
him, they can dictate who shall be
the next President, and who can
tell but what VIM. M. Stewart may
be the man?

WHEN it was stated the other
night by the distinguished leader
of the Weaver movement for Cleve-
land that the silver question slept
from 1873 until he entered the Sen
ate, most of the audience thought
they had a dim recollection of hav-
ing heard Of Senator Jones as some
how connected with the silver
question during that time Gold
Bug Er.
There is no doubt in the world
that the recollection of having heard
of Jones is very dim. Stewart is
the man who agitated the silver
question until it has become the
most important one in this country.

THE London Stdtist the standard
authority on finances in England,
in its issue Of September II, opens
with an article on the international
monetary conference with this; at
is to be hoped that the new govern
ment will have the courage even to
withdraw from the international
monetary conference" The writer
saws that neither Mr. Gladstone, as
premier, nor the chancellor of the
exchecquer, has any sympathy with
the object of the conference. They
know England will not tamper with
its monetary system and they must
feel, therefore, that they will be in
false position in going into the con-
ference. They must be aware, too,
that it was proposed only as means
of tiding over the elections in the
United States, and that it was ac-
cepted by European governments
simply out of courtesey to that of
the United States. 1t is also con-
tended by the writer that in the
Udited States itself there is evil
dence of very considerable change
of feeling in recent months, on tae
silver question, both in Congress
and among the people, and that the
signs point to probable repeal Of
the silver law of 1890.
