mentioned in connection with it was taken
up and considered. but DO results were ar

the preferred list from which selections

nominated by exclamation without the
formality of ballot. An objection was
raised, not because Of any animosity
toward Judge Coffey, for his name was
received with applause, but the delegates
thought that no departure should be made
