mocracy OF Kentucky closed here at z
o'clock last night, when Congressman
Berry adjourned the convention sine die.

1t was then moved and carried that the
candidate receiving the smallest vote
on the next and each succeeding ballot bo
dropped. johnson and Headly withdrew
from the race, leaving only Hale aud Met.
calfe. This caused great excitement, many
counties addressing the chair at the same
time and demanding their votes be
changed.
The entire Louisville delegation, which
had been passed announced that its entire
vote would be cast for Headly, which would
have insured his nomination. The John
son men attempted to delay the announce
ment of proceedings, but without effect.
At this time Virgil Taylor crowded di-
rectly in front OF Chairman Berry and
cried loudly, Fraud, fraud, and you, the
chairman OF the Democratic committee OF
Kentucky"
''Sit down, or will have you attended
to-" retorted Mr.. Barry
Damn you; we will have justice" re-
turned Taylor, and then he burst into "a
string Of oaths, which he directed against
