United States would not be deceived
by the action of the convention in this
matter.
Temporary Tumult.
At this point one of the numerous OBJ
fuse policemen stationed in the build
ing attempted to prevent the entrance
of delegate and small sized row and
some excitement prevailed, but the
chairman ordered the band to start up
and the convention quoted down.
Resuming his remarks Senator Grady
said it seemed to his unfortunate fate
never to make speech without raising
some kind of row. MY purpose in
speaking" he continued, was to avoid
a row. There must be row, If not
here, In. some place else, If we overturn
a precedent which Is part of the party
discipline itself, by adopting this re-
port" W
The discussion was closed by two
speeches, one by Mr.. Weadock of Mich
igan and the other by Mr.. O'Donnell, of
Colorado Little or no attention, how
ever was paid to these speeches, as the
crowd in the gallery was quite turbu-
lent and could not be kept in order.
The convention ITSELF as we'll as the
spectators in the galleries, was in
hurry to come to vote, and Mr..
O'Donnell assisted that view by NOV
ing the previous question on the report.
The previous question was seconded.
Question Put
The question was then put on the ac-
ceptance of the minority committee re-
port.
Pendemonium Reigns.
When New Yorl1's u votes were an
nounced as in favor of the minority re-
port a tumultuous wave of cheering
broke over the assembly. The first eff
forts of the chairman to repress the
manifestation by the use of his Savel
We're met by counter demonstration
on the part of the gold delegates, who,
rising and turning their backs to the
chair and their faces to the immense
crowds in the galleries, waved hats and
handkerchiefs and stood on their chairs
and gestieulated.
The galleries, evidently strongly anti
silver in sentiment, were not slow TO
respond, and unearthly sounds from
$4,000 throats filled even the vast space
of the great hall. The Tammany yell
was plainly heard in every temporary
lull. The band tried in vain to COM
pete with the babel of noise. Every
rap of the chairman's gavel only SEEM
ed to start it again as it began to quiet
down. Shouts for Hill.
Yodel calls and shrill whistles added
to the confusion. Then the silver. men
began to hiss and stamp their feet and
this made matters infinitely worse.

North Carolina declines to vote till
she can be heard" replied the chair
man Of the delegation. State Chairman
Hinckley, ex-Mayor Hugh Grant and
other prominent New Workers vainly
tried to stop the demonstration. 1t
went on uninterruptedly for fifteen
minutes and was barely silenced when
the roll call was resumed. When
Pennsylvania was reached and Chalr-
man Harrity said, Pennsylvania casts
her GA votes aye" an attempt was made
to renew the demonstration, but 1t died
away in few seconds spectators and
delegates being almost tired out. The
vote was taken on the minority amend
ment which retains the sitting mem
bers from the Fourth and Ninth dis
tricts Of Michigan in their seats.
Minority Defeated.
The vote resulted In the rejection of
the minority report--yeas 1858, nays 55S,

The noes have it." said the chair
man, "and the amendment is lost.
Silver Men Jubilant.

| they yelled and waved hats and hand
kerchiefs and displayed Bland pictures,
and made the night hideous for nearly
as long as the gold men, the galleries

Kentucky delegates danced break
down in the aisle at the rear of the
| delegates section, several others pat

amid the widest laughter.
