party and act with 1T and who will not, by
senseless quarreis at the White House ard
the Capitol, reduce legislation and execu-
ton alike to imbecility and failure. Such
is the man we want for our great office
in these bitter times, when the forces of
disorder are loosed and the wreckers, with
their false lights, gather at the shore and
lure the ship of state upon the rocks.
The Needed Man.
Such a man, fit for such deeds, I am
now to present to you. He needs no praise
from me. for he has proved his own title
to leadership. From what he Is and what
he has done we know what he can do
For twenty years, in victory and defeat, at
the head of great majorities and Of small
minorities alike, he has led his party in
Congress with a power which no man
could dispute and with an ability which
never failed. 1 have seen him with a
maddened opposition storming about him
carry through that great reform which
has made House of Representatives the
strong and efficient body it Is today.
Il have seen him during the past winter
guide a great majority that they have
met every demand put upon them and
republican party in the campaign before
us. Before the people and in the House
he has ever been the bold and brilliant
champion of the great republican policies
and abandoned, have left ruin at our
doors. He is a thorough American by
birth. by descent, by breeding; one who
loves his country and has served 1t in
youth and manhood, in war and peace
His great ability. his originality of
thought. mis- power in debate, his strong
Will. are known of all men and are part
of the history of the last twenty years
His. public career is spotless, and his private
character is pure and unblelnished. He is
trained statesman, fit for the heaviest
task the country can impose upon him.
He commands the confidence of his party
and his country. He Is a leader of men
I'VE know it because we have seen him
lead. To those who have followed him
he never said go. but always come
He Is entirely fearless. We know it, for
we have seen his courage tested on a hun
dred fields. He has been called to great
places and to great trials. and he has
never failed nor flinched. He is fit to
stand at the head Of the republican col
umn. He Is worthy to be an American
President. I have the honor, the very great
honor, to present to you as a candidate
for your nomination the Speaker of the
National House of Representatives

Special from n Staff Correspondent
ST. LOUIS. June 1s.-The early adjourn
ment yesterday and the abandonment of the
contemplated night session Of the conven-
ton, without awaiting for the report of the
platform committee, was due to the desire on
the part Of the managers for an oppor-
tunity 10 plead with the silver leaders
and, failing to accomplish anything with
them. to weaken their action as much as
possible by drawing off some of their fol-
lowers and making arguments to have
the places of the boilers taken in the con-
vention by alternates. The entire night
was spent in this effort to break the force
of tine bolt and in making up the plans for
today. Every possible argument was used
with the silver men, and all sorts Of pres
sure was brought to bear on them.
Up to this time the party managers have
not adopted a policy of making light of the
bolt or of belittling the men who partici-
pate in it. They have treated the matter

they make their presence known by shouts
and clspping of hands in a way that raises
a great volume OF applause.
Mr.. Teller raises his hand to invoke ST.
lence, and hush falls ever the place
Every one seems to realize the solemnity
of this moment, when section of the
great republican party is about TO detach
itself from the main body. The old Colo
RADIO leader is himself impressed by the
occasion. He Starts to speak in a .tremu-
lous voice, but as he warns up to his sub
ject his voice grows stronger and his man
ner more aggressive. The whole soul and
heart of the han is in the work before him.
He is singing his Swan Song to the re-
publican party. and the notes swell and
thrill into the remotest portion Of the hall.
When Mr.. Teller has passed the zenith of
his impasslone speech his strength fails
him. His physique is not ROBUST, ana he
has been under a heavy strain, which told
upon him.
But the audience bears with him in a
tenderness which is pathetic. His pauses
between sentences grow longer. but no
mention of restlessress or Impotence
comes from the 1900 people who await
his words. In the pauses the swish of the
countless fans in motion is the only sound
which is audible TO those upon the stage.
save the dull murmur arising from the
busy stream outside the hall
When he reaches the climax of his
speech the formal announcement of his re-
lection Of the republican party in its adop-
ton Of the gold standard, there is silence
for moment, and the audience responds
acc ording to its mind.
There are cheers and Kisses, neither very
copious. The demonstration for or against
kim represents but small proportion Of
the audience. He received abundance of
applause when he supported bimetallism

Look at the country now. The treasury
is empty. Our credit is impaired. Our
revenues are deficient. We meet the
public needs not with income, but by Dor
rowing TT high rates and pledging the
future for the wants Of the present Bus
mess is paralyzed. Confidence has gone.

Our mills are idle and our railroads Grip

serious differences with other nations. The

Of the situation is the continued loyalty Of
Mr.. Reeds followers. The fact that his
nomination is hopeless does not dampen
their ardor nor loyalty. They raise a
whoop for Reed upon every occasion, and
are sounding his name constantly in the
public ear. In fact. he is the only member
Of the minority group of candidates whose
praises are sung from every street corner
and in every hotel lobby. Not a shout is
heard for Allison, Quay or Morton.
There was a wild scene in the lobby Of
the Southern along toward midnight last
night. A number of Reed howlers took a
notion to run out all the Mckinley men
they could find. They paraded the corri-
doris. shouting for the Maine statesman
vociferously, and in loud tones demanding
to know who made Mckinley" Then
they would shout, Reed made him. and
continue in that strain until some Mckin-
leyite would resent the declaration.
Then there would be rush, and it was a
case of "rouse nit 'im." for they threw
the Mckinleyites out the door in hurry.
They were regular foot ball rushers. and
every one was rushed out of the hotel who
did not agree with them. There were sew
eral fights. but they did not amount to
much. If 1t were not for these Reed howl
ers there would not be bit of life in the
scenes about town. N. o. NJ.

would certainly carry Missouri, would car

"Mr. Teller on the contrary would carry

| am advised by a number of prominent BIZ

would stand more thar an equal show of
| carrying that state. So that, figuring on

| list could hope to receive, an aggregate
vote for Mr. Teller of 265 against 1877. the

receive.
