Houston, Tex, Aug. Is 10 am
After a restless night and q Lustling
morning the crowds are moving to-
wards Convention Hall, where the
ball will open ali hour or two later.
The two factions are as hostile as
ever, possibly more so, for the sight
of each operates upon the other as o
red rag upon bull. Both of them
held caucus last night, determined on
action and selected leaders. The whole
state house gang, almost without ex-
ception, are here from Austin
TO participate and put In their work
for Hogg where it will do more good.
II this was republican state and the
state officers were TO make such a
move in Orde: 10 co troll nomination
wouldn't there be democratic music
in the air.
Dudly aided ny Epson of San An
tonic, with Paddock, and Poindexter
and Miller and score of other good
ones have charge of Clark's interests
and there will De no giving way until
the fight is ended, every inch OF
ground being con TESTED for
the Clark caucus was q very quiet,
determined meeting, and Its prevail
ing sentiment was that the political
rights of the convention should not
be trampled on. There is q sense of
danger in the air that makes itself
teit. The sober men of the cOnVeD-
ton seem 10 realize that q crisis has
come in the history of the party and
theyNhesitate about taking any action
that may preelpItate split. That
influences and passions are at work
which will 1recipltate conflict cam
not be overlooked. 1t is Qulle likely
that Hogg has blown such a gale
with the breath of his dOgmatism as
he will find it impossible 10 control.
IL is reported and believed that the
HOgg managers have the whole con-
vention proceedings arranged for,
programme Gus and dried. 1t is very
hard, however, to gain any real In
sight Into affairs, for the leaders are
keeping their own counsel and have
merely arranged Tor concert OF action
through heads OF delegations.
II, as IL now believed, there IS to be
Hogg's interest it does not seem pos
sible that break can be avoided.
The name of Bexsr county comes
early in the list, and upon the dig
position made of this case much de-

key TO unlock the contest stu

shall govern. If the Callaghan crowd
is seated it will be accepted az CON-
elusive proof that Hogg feels sure of
the result and will ride rough shod
over the minority. AS yet, however,

shornan's Army JubilAtion.

When Shermsnb armies Gong after
they left Atlsnts) were marching
through South and North Caroline
after leaving Savannah, the news Of
Lees C~apitulation having been re-
ceised- the men moved a mile
without from some part OF the line
sending up continued, Inspiring
shouts, says Walt Whitman in his
autobiography just issued. 80
At intervals all day long sounded
out the Wild music OF those peculiar
army cries. They would be COM
menced by one regiment or brigade,
Immediately taken up by others and
at length whole corps and armies
would join in these wild, triumphant
choruses. 1t was one Of the char
acteristio expressions OF the Western
troops and became Il habit, serving as
q relief and outlet to the men-a vent
for their feelings Of victory, returning
peace, etc.
Morning, moor and afternoon, spou-
taneous, for occasion or without occa-
sion, these huge, strange cries, differ
ing from any other, eohoing through
the open air for many a mile, ex-
pressing youth, Joy, wlldness, ire
pressi BILE strength and the ideas Of
advance and conquest, sounded along
the swamps and uplands OF the South
floating to the skies. ("Ihere never
we're men that kept in better spirits
in danger or defeat-what then could
they do in viotoryf" said one of tho
Fifteenth Corps to me ~afterwards.1
This exuberanoe continued till the
armies arrived at Raleigh. There the
news Of the Presidents murder was
received. Then no more shouts or
yells for q week. All the marching
was comparatively mufled. 1t was
very SUPPLEMENTARY q loud word
or laugh in many of the regiments.
