Ing echoes OF the convention crowds

All OF tho remaining delegations de-
parted OF Saturday evening, and with
the exception OF the national committee
headquarters nothing was left to-day to
indicate that there had been any con-
ventlon. Even TIM sign of tho sergeant
alarms had been removed, although
Colonel Martin remained to finish un
some matters connected with closing
the convention.
The silver headquarters at the sher-
man House were deserted. The bI-mc-
talllc committee, their work being ac-
complislsed, disbandcd, and only those
who are members OF the national COM
mittee remained over. lIlnrlchsen, with
his cohorts, left on Saturday evening,
as did also the most Of tho Virginia

eX-Secretary Shcerin. Colonel Shirley,
Colonel Martin and Mr.. Conda, the

ceedlngly the trouble that could not be

Instead OF 0 n, m., when he should hive

convention, he said, fifty persons were
. ,r,n.R 49,. ~
or, 4 good many women tainted. One
man sustained broken nose; 9nd an
other got his ankle crushed. Several
OF the delegates were overcome from
the excitement, loss Of sleep and long
sSsions without anything TO eat and
sessions without anything 10 eat and
charge.
