AFTERNOON SESSION.
The A. p. AS Get in Their Deadly
Work

Work.
At the opening of the afternoon ses-
on. shortly after l o'clock. Theodore
Sander, chairman of the committee on
credentials, announced that his commit
tee was ready to report, and Nj. j. DAILY
took the platform and proceeded to read
the list of delegates as revised. and
which was adopted as read. 1t COM
prised all the delegates published yes
terday.
Aid. Reardon was announced as COM
ing into the convention from the Ninth
ward on proxy, ana the mention of
the fact created applause.
Thomas Howard did not go before
the committee with protest against
the Ninth ward delegation. His reason
for not doing so was that his friends in
other wards had been defeated. and he
had been advised that he would be
beaten in the convention. and Tim
Reardon, whom he denominated as an
"unwashed BRUTE" would crow over
the result. 3
Frederick Driscoll, of the committee
On permanent organization, reported in
favor of making the temporary organi-
cation permanent with the addition of
Matt Jensen as assistant secretary, and
the report was adopted.

short speech. He declared that he stood
on the platform; that the party is su-
perlor to the individual. He would,
although not nominated, help the party
to achieve its sublimest victory. He
asked, what is the matter with DOran,
Horst, Holcomb and Orr?" and declared
that they are the Quartette who will

ing a drink of water and holding the
glass aloft he declared this to be Re
publican year, and some one in the
Eighth ward delegation said. "Here is
looking at YOU" Proceeding, Mr.. Rogers
said he did not get his inspiration by
writing speech by the midnight oil,
but by looking into the eyes of the peo-
pie. He then discuss ed the depressed
business condition of st. Paul and the
condition of the working people, and
predicted future business activity.
OTHER NOMINEES.
The remainder of the ticket was
speedily completed by lndorsing the
ward selections. The ticket appears
complete at the beginning of this re-
port.
ONE SENSIBLE MAN.
Pat Butler, who was nominated for
alderman from the Fourth ward, posi-.
lively declined to remain on the ticket,
and the ward delegation was empow-
cred to suggest man to the executive
committee within the time prescribed
by law. The assembly ticket as re-
ported by the committee was as stated
above, and was confirmed.
The chairman was empowered to
name an executive committee of seven
teen, composed of one from each wald
and six at large.
The usual votes of thanks were given
to the chairman and secretaries.
ID. F. Reese proposed three cheers for
the ticket as the convention broke up,
but less than score of men joined in
the response. and the funeral party
went ont into the cold, cold world. with
none SO poor to do them reverence.
St. Paul daily globe. [volume] (Saint Paul, Minn.) 1884-1896, 1894-04-11

Mr.. Doran was declared the nominee
after the crowd got through cheering
and tossing their hats in the air. Mr..
Reardon arose with a large crowd OF
others. and, throwing his hat up about
twenty feet, cheered loudly. His hat
sailed back into the audience like
boomerang.
When the confusion had subsidized it
was again renewed when d. F. Reese
moved to made the nomination unani-
NOUS Eli s. Warner rushed up to
Paul Martin and embraced him, and
there were similar scenes in which 9th.
ers participated. :.
On motion of Gen. Flower, T. Rear
don, John Copeland and Gen. Flower
were appointed as committee to find
Mr.. Doran and bring him before the
convention.
MIR. Driscoil, who represents the silk
stocking element. apparently had no
further interest in the proceedings, and
retired from the convention to think il
over all by his sweet lone self.
MAJ. John Espy announced that the
committee OH resolutions was ready to
report. and read the platform which was
adopted, and is as given below.

But Few Eastern Congress
men Affiliated Caucus Was
Unanimous to Take Off the 10
Per Cent Tax-Unconditional
Repeal Not Favored by All.
WASHINGTON. April 10.-The Demo-
cratic eau Gus, after session of two
hours and a half, this evening adopted
| the following resolutions without dis
senting vote:
Resolved, that it is the sense of this
! caucus that the prohibitory tax of 10
per cent on bank issues be repealed.
Resolved, that when the bill known
as the Brawley and Spencer bill, which
the committee on banking and currency
! Las ordered reported to the house, IS
offered repeating the prohibitory tax on
state banks; that ample time be af.
forded for discussion, and if necessary
to secure this, the committee Oh rules
be requested to take proper action.
Exactly l02 Democrats of the house
were present. The attendance from the
South and, West was very heavy, but
only a few Eastern men appeared,
among them being Messrs. Straus, Cum
mings, Dunphy and Warner. New
! York; Pigott, Connecticut; O'Nelll,
Massachusetts, aud Sibey, Pennsyl-
yaDia. The discussion of the repeal of
the state bank tax proceeded in des-
ultory way for time and took wide
range. Mr.. Culberson, of Texas, chair
man of the judiciary committee, made
strong speech In favor of it.
After some further talk, the above
resolutions were offered, the first by
Mr.. Cox, of Tennessee. and the second
by Mr.. Culberson. There was but little
diversity of opinion in the caucus Oh
the question of the ACCESSIBILITY of TAX
ing I'D for consideration the question of
the repeal, but there was some opposi-
ton to unconditional repeal. The only
outspOken opponents of any measure
looking to the repeal of the state bank
tax came from Messrs. Bryan. of Ne
braska. and Lane and Williams, of
Illinois. Messrs. Gresham, of Texas;
Swanson. of Virginia; Catchings. of
Mississippi; Cooper, of Indiana, and
others ardently favored the proposition.
Mr.. Cummings, of New York, made
ringing speech at the end in favor of
the repeal. At the conclusion of his
speech the resolutions were adopted
and the caucus adjourned.
The result of the caucus means that
the bill to repeal the state bank tax
shall be considered as rider to the
Brawley bill, which is now ON the cal
endar, and that vote shall be had upon
it. 1t was generally admitted in the
caucus tonight that this repeal could
not be accomplished Internationally.
MIR. Swanson gave as the result of the
canvass 129 votes for unconditional re-
peal, and Mr.. Williams declared as
result of his investigation that major
ity OF the house favors repeal, although
not Internationally. The question of
conditions was but briefly touched upon

GATHERING OF THE CLANS.
Morning Session OF the Republic
can City Convention.

Morning Session OF the Republic
can City Convention.
The delegates and large contingent
of on-l0okers assembled at Market hall
as early as 10 o'clock yesterday morn
ing. BY the time the convention was
called to order, half-hour later, the
hall was well filled. The 143 delegates
occupied the front seats, and the crowd
filled up the back Of the hall even to
crowding into the aisles.
Gates A. johnson, chairman of the
Republican city committee, pounded on
table with clinch hammer and pro-
ceeded to read short speech, which
began with the statement that he saw
before him many faces that had been in
the front rank of the great Republican
party for. 10. these many years, and
ending with request to please
choose temporary chairman" When
turning to the second page of his speech
it slipped from his grasp and floated to
the front row of delegates. The read
ing was suspended until Capt. Bean re-
turned the manuscript to the chairman.
Aid. John Copeland nominated for
temporary chairman Fred NJ. Lloyd. of
the First ward.
Gen. Mark ID. Flower, as prear-
ranged. arose to place in nomination
Assemblyman William II. Lightner for
that position. He made the speech as
scheduled. but told the convention that
he did SO without knowing the attitude
OF MIR. Liglluner on the mayoralty. lie
would, however. nominate him because,
while they might not agree as to
the nomination of the convention, yet
he believed in the honesty of Mr. Light
ner, and felt that he would be impartial
in his deliberations.
Bernard Zimmerman, of the Fifth
ward, seconded the nomination of Mr..
Lightner.
Chairman johnson asked Vandiver,
who sat on the stage having fun, what
to do, and WAS told to take the vote on
the nomination of Lloyd first.
Just then ID. +. Reese came to the re :
lief Of the chairman. and moved for a
call of the wards and to empower the
chairmcn of the ward delegations to an
| nounce the votes by wards on the choice
for temporary chairman. This motion
prevailed after being amended by Fred
erick Driscoll ST., of the Seventh ware.
The vote stood, Lightner 81, and Lloyd
46, so MI. Llghtner was declared the
| choice for temporary chairman. The
announcement of the result elected
cheers.
W. II. LIGHTNER PRESENTED.

invitation from the chair, added to thai
OF the Aplsts. Gen. Flower surrendered
and said:
GOV. M'GILL wITHDRAws.
II am requested by Gov. McGill to
withdraw his name as candidate for
the nomination for mayor Of the city OF
st. Paul. Gov. McGill has at no time
been candidate in the sense that 1t
! might cause dissension in the ranks OF
the party. and he would only be cam
didate if it came as the unanimous wish
of this convention. AS this is not the
case l am requested to return his thanks
to his friends, and to say that he has no
personal ambitions beyond the success
of the Republican party. He pledges
his cordial support and that of his
friends to whomsoever may be the
choice of the party in convention
assembled"
These remarks were greeted with
loud and long applause.
E. G. ROGERS NAMED.
D. +. Reese was loudly cheered as he
assembled the platform preparatory t"
nominating Ed &. Rogers for mayor.
He repeated part of the speech that he
had made several times at ward meet.
ings. lie alluded to the fact that he
had been known as an ardent supporter
of A. r. McGiIl, a Republican that had
always been loyal,and had never sulked
in his tent, but he wanted a candidate
who would unite the factions that have
been tearing at each other for two
Iaol e.,
Republican,, with an emphasis on the
party name, and who is all orator as
we'll as an executive and vote getter.
AT the name of Mr.. Rogers there was
considerable cheering and Indian
whoopng.
THE APIST CANDIDATE.
o. B. Lewis, of the Sixth ward, took
the platform and delivered a carefully
worded speech in nominating f. b.
Doran. He declared that local issues
are more important than those of ma
tional and state. and wanted a real re-
form mayor nominated. His wish was
that the convention choose man w ho
believes i'll good government, good Or
der, and who is a citizen, soldier and
legislator. A free man, F. B. Doran.
This speech was greeted with cheers
and applause.
F. N. Lloyd said. in behalf of the ban
ner Republican ward, the one that had
received the least recognition from the
present administration, he wanted to
second the nomination of man who
did not come from the Seventh ward,
where most of the appointments had
gone. Because MIR. Doran was closer to
the people than man of the Seventh
ward could be, he would second the
nomination of Mr.. Doran.
G. f. Dana moved for formal ballot.
Frederick DriscolI amended, by making
1t call Of wards and announcing the
vote through the ward chairman.
Mr.. ReardOn arose, and was greeted
by chorus Of voices to take the plat.
form. He insisted on speaking from
the floor, but was prevailed on to mount
the stage. while the crowd cheered.
Mr.. Reardon said: "If you expect a
speech you will be mistaken. 1 will
say one thing. l take pleasure in sec
ending tine nomination of my friend
Doran. | believe the chairman will
bear me out that he is good man for
the Office"
E. S. Durment also seconded the
nomination OF Mr.. Doran aud stated
that there were a few in the Seventh
ward who favored his nomination.
The vote for mayor was then taken,
az follows.

the DOran men to a caucus OH the stage.
MGILL MEN CAUCUS.
The McGill caucus lasted but few mo-
ments and resulted in withdrawing the
name of the ex-governor. Henry Johns
presided at the caucus. A canvass of
the delegates present was made at the
suggestion of Gen. Flower, which devel-
oped the fact that not more than forty
four men could be depended upon TO
vote for McGilI, and it was currently
believed that he would not gain in
strength. Gen. Flower informed the
caucus that Mr.. McGill had authorized
him to use his Judgment in withdrawing
his name. Gen. Flower advised the
withdrawal, and declared that he be-
lieved such course would help Mr..
Doran, as some of the McGill delegates
wanted to vote for Mr.. Doran. The sug-
gestion of Gen. Flower was agreed to
by the delegates.
THE DORIAN CAUCUS.
The OOran delegates and about fifty
sympathizers who were not delegates,
met on the stage. o. 3. Lewis presided,
and Paul Martin. who was not a dele
gate, took an active part seconding mo-
tons and coaching the delegates. On
motion of Fred Lloyd it was decided to
stand by DOran first, last and all the
time. 1t was also decided to do no trad
ing and to make the fight on the mayor
atty irrespective of other offices.
