CLEVELAND, o., June 90. The meet
ing OF the republican league Wednes-
day morning was opened by an ad-
dress of welcome by d. d. Woodman-
see, the president of the Ohio league.
The forenoon was taken up mostly
with music and cheering the entry of
leaders, the singing of the Cleveland
Glee club being a great feature.
When Secretary Humphrey called the
states to ascertain the number Of dele
gates and alternates it was ascertained
that the states could report only those
present and not the number to which
they are entitled. This is against the
silver men whose delegations were not
as full as those of other states. During
the call there were loud demonstra-
tions when Tennessee, Missouri Ken
tucky and other democratic states
was given to H. Clay Evans, of Tenn
essee.
CLEVELAND, O., June 21.-Early
Thursday morning the subcommittee
of the committee on resolutions, which
had been in session since the adjourn
ment of the general committee at 1920
Wednesday night, is said to have
| agred upon an address to be presented
| to the convention as soon as it
shall have been adopted by the
| general committee. This address, as
| was predicted Wednesday, will recon-.
mend that the convention take no ac-
ton on the financial or any other ques-
ton, but that it simply turn all such
matters over to the national conven-
tion in 1896. 1t is believed the gen.
eral committee will adopt the report,
and that the convention, in its turn,
| will place it's sanction on it.
When President Tracey called the
convention to order at II a. m. the first
thing done was the appointment of
Senator-elect Thurston, of Nebraska,
II. Clay Evans. of Tennessee, ex-Gov.
Prince, of New Mexico, Messrs. Good
now, of Minnesota, and Buck, of
Georgia, to wait on ex-senator
Warner Miller, of New York,
and invite him to address
the convention. While these gentlemen
retired to escort Mr.. Miller to the hall,
the committee on credentials reported
in favor of seating both delegations
from South Carolina. This was adopt
ed. On the report of the committee the
rules of the Reed house and the Den
yer convention were adopted. Hon.
Warner Miller then addressed the con-
vention.
| CLEVELAND. O., June 21-The work
of the eighth convention of the
national league of republican club
was practically ended Thursday night
at o'clock when the committee on
resolutions finished it's deliberations
and formulated its address. A few
minutes before, the convention, after
an all-day session, adjourned until
Friday at 10 o'clock. Had it stayed
in session short time longer the re-
port would have gone before it and a
speedy disposition might have been
made
The report was not surprise. As
was predicted, it leaves everything to
the next National republican conven-
ton. Neither the money question nor
the tariff question are even remotely
referred to. The report is based
on an old article of the National
league of republican clubs, which pro-
vides that the league shall not inter
meddle in any way with affairs which
come properly within the province oi
the convention.
The committee on league organiza
ton then reported. No new recon-
mendations were made. Chairman
Nagle, of the committee on time anG
place, reported the members hat
agreed to unanimously recommend
, Milwaukee as the next place of meet
ing, the time to be fixed by the execu
| tive committee some time after that Of
, the national convention.

and vice presidents and executive com
mitteemen were named. Those from
Ohio and adjacent states are:
