votes. The nomination was Immediately
made unanimous. Enthusiastic speeches
were made by representatives Of the op-
posing candidates. and there were the
usual felicitations. Mark Hanna was
obliged in response to calls to address the
convention.
After the decision Of the Plat forces
not to present the name of Morton. owing
to the war waged against him by the War
ner Miller faction, the nomination Of Ho-
bart Of New Jersey became o certainty.
The Mckinley influence was thrown for
him. and although there was an attempt
to consolidate the West and South on ii.
Clay Evans Of Tennessee, the Mckinley
influence was too powerful. Besides. It was
the general sense Of the delegates that the
logic Of the situation required the nomina-
ton Of an Eastern man for vice president.
The nominating speeches were brief.
Bulkeley Of Connecticut, Lippett Of Rhode
Island and Gen. Walker Of Virginia were
also placed In nomination. It only required
one ballot to determine the contest. Hobart

for Reed, Thurston, Grant, Depew, Morton
