There must be row. he continued,
"if not here, in some place else, IL we
oyerturn a precedent which is a part or
party discipline itself, by adopting this

The discussion was closed by two more
speeches-one by Mr.. weadock of Micht-

Colorado. Little or no attention, how
ever, was paid to these speeches, as the
crowd in the galleries was quite turbulent

The convention itself, as well as the
spectators, in the galleries, were in
hurry to come to a vote, and Mr.. ODon-
nelll assisted that view by moving the
previous question on the report. The

When New York's seveDty-two votes
were announced ayein favor OF the minority

broke over the assembly. The first efforts
OF the chairman to repress the manifesto

gold delegates. who, rising and turning their
backs to the chairman and their faces to
the immense crowds in the galleries, waved
hats and handkerchiefs and stood on their
chairs and gesticulated.

for Hill, yodel ca,lsand shrili whistles added

they yelled and waved hats and handker-
chiefs and displayed Bland pictures, and
made the night hideous for nearly as long
as the gold men, the galleries impartially
assisting.
During the jubilation by the silver men,
two stout Kentucky delegates danced a
breakdown in the aisle at the rear of
