"but the gentleman who made the motion
20 appoint committee of five 10 make an
investigation had the honesty TO speak Ia
the highest terms of Richard 1. Whelan."
There was another storm of cheers at
this point, which showed that the Rainey

Mr.. Nhelan had cordially given Mr.. Nc
Dade his support during the last campaign
and said: Let the friends of Mr.. Nc
Dade do likewise now, should Mr.. Whelan
receive the nomination"
Delegate Wise made a motion to adjourn
until Monday evening at o'clock. The
motion was received with groans. Andy
Clunie seconded it.
Delegate Dunno arose to point of Or
der and said that the motion TO adjourn
was not made in good faith. There was
proposition pending before the house and
he thought that the motion should not pre-
vail.
The chairman ruled the poiut of order as
not we'll taken.
Cries of 'srollcanW 'rollcaIlW
Jerry Lynch said he hoped the motion
would not prevail.
The chairman said Mr.. Lynch was out
of order.
81 hope, said delegate from the For
ty-third, that Mr.. Lynch will get courte-
Gus hearing"
He'll get IT," said the chairman.
81 want to say" cried Mr.. Lynch, "that
when the chairman sees that motions are
made and rolcalls are demanded for the
purpose of delaying matters it is his duty
to declare that such things are revolution
airy. They should not prevail"
Barclay Henley spoke to the same pur-
pose, aud insisted that the proceedings
were revolutionary and should be ruled
ont. His remarks caused considerable con-
fusion, in which cries of "Rolcall" were
made again.
Andy ClunIe denied the right of Mr..
Lynch or Mr.. Henley to say that the mo-
too made by Mr.. Wise was revolutionary.
There were cries of "Sit down - "Shut
upw Clunie went On TO saw that he would
support the nominees of the convention
whoever they were, that he would stay
through the convention, he would not bolt,
aud he denied the right Of any man who
had DO ted the Democratic parry to bring
to the bosses having control of the con-
ventioD, and declared that thew had
packed the galleries 70 drown the voices of
the speakers with their noise.
P. F. dunno declared that the object
was f1libustering, and said that if the op-
position was acting in good faith the m at
ter could be tested by rising vote to see if
seventy five delegates demanded a rollcall.
nol1 nnIn al
Wise ana Clunie consented to this propo-
siti0n.
Upon the chairman calling for delegates
in favor OF the proposition TO rise quite
number rose t. their feet. They were re-
ceived with Kisses. which fact caused the
chairman to wax wrOth again.
81 want It understood" he said, that l
have called for vote here, and these gen.
tlemen may vote as they please without
any demonstration being made"
The standing delegates were then counted
by the sergeant-at-arms, but before the re-
suit was announced Delegate Wise said he
would withdraw his motion TO adjourn.
Hold o." yelled Andy Clunie, 81 sec
onded that motion, and l refuse to allow it
to be Withdrawn"
The chairman allowed that under the
circumstances and as eighty-nine delegates
had voted in favor of calling the roll that
was the next order OF business.
P. F. Dunno declared that IN order 10 de-
termine whether the delegates were acting
in good faith the motion TO adjourn might
be determined by rising vote. Delegates
Weller and Ach made motions providing
for a standing vote on motions of adjourn
ment These we're ruled out of order
after long tangie. in which Clunie had all
the best OF it. Finally, at the suggestion
of the chair. a motion was made to sus-
pend the rules. This motion was made by
Dunno. Then it was discovered that it
would take a two-thirds vote to suspend
the rules and that a rolIcall would be neces-
sary.
Delegate Clunie again got the floor amid
confusion, but was interrupted by Dele
gate Dune. Clunie was recogn lied, and
insisted upon his rights TO speak.
The chairman stopped Mr.. Clunie for a
moment to say that the delegates had
right to vote upon the proposition Of sus-
pending the rules. he knew OF no other
way than by CALI the roll in order that
he might know who was voting.
Delegate Dunno here said he would
Withdraw his motion. and allow the
motion TO adjourn to be voted upon.
Andy Ciunie. who had been standing all
this lime, took exception to Dir. Dunno
