THE STORY IN DETAIL.
Both Mckinley and Hobart Nomf-
nnted on First Ballot.

CONVENTION HALL, ST. LOUIS,
June ls.-Brisht sunshine, with cloudless
skies and the temperature up in the
eighties. and going higher, difused an
inspiring influence among the many thou
sand men and women who swarmed
through the streets and tammed the
cable and trolley-cars which converge on
the large, squat. flag-bedecked building
In which the Republican National Con-
vention has held its sessions. 1t was the
morning of the third day, the decisive
day, the day which gives TO the Grand
O.d Party" for victory or for defeat, its
battle-cry and its leader Both were al
ready fixed upon with but little proba-
bility OF change or variation-the battle
cry. the gold standard. and the leader,
William Mckinley. OF Ohio.
Some Observation-Disclosures people
imagined omens of disaster from the
rather curious circumstances that to-
day. the 18th of June is the anniversary
OF the great and decisive battle in which
the Emperor Napoleon OF France. 10
whom Mckinley is supposed to have a
strong personal resemblance, went down
before the allied armies OF Europe, and
the idea found lodgment In some minds
that the Republican party. which has pre-
vailed for about the same length or time
that the great Corsican's star was In the
ascendant, might go down. with Its sp-
pointed leader before the ruthless at
tacks and charges OF Democrats. Popu-
lists, and Free-Silverites.
At half past 10 O'Clock all the delegates
were in the hall. most OF them In the
seats assigned to their respective States,
but many still surging up and down the
rather narrow aisles. chatting pleasantly
with one another. or consulting about
possible combinations. As to the galleries.
they were closely packed. the fair sex
being well represented. While all were
waiting for tho president to announce the
opening, the time was passed pleasantly
enough in listening TO the strains of the
band. stationed above and behind the
platform. the pleasure being somewhat
dashed by a rather dolorous ditty In the
praise Of protection, sung by a quartetts
OF male voices

Reduced Rates TO West Point aud

The Southern railway. recognizing the
fact that a great many Richmond people
would like ID spend their Sundays at
West Point, have arranged to put in
rate OF 81 for the round trip tickets to
be sold Saturdays and Sundays. good to
return Mondays. The Terminal Hotel"
at this point has just been opened under
an experienced management, and every
thing has been done for the comfort OF
guests who may go TO that point. For

The protection which Mckinley is sup
posed to represent in his personality is a
thing of the past. and the issue of to-
day Is as distinct from that as day from
night. The financial question is the issue
to-day, and the country now looks 10 Chi
cago. The Mckinley nomination IS re.
garded by all the Republican leaders as
an exceptionally weak one. and II pre.
sents TO the Democracy rare opportunity
for 1896.
NOMINEE HOBART.
The convention concluded its work this
evening in railroad way by rushing
through an end for the Mckinley ticket
in the person OF a Paterson On. J) law
yer, named Garrett A. Hobart. This was
not exactly according to programme. but
it came as near placating the eastern
bosses Of the party as could be. and was
the only sop they got.
Hobart is a very wealthy man, being
worth over a couple of millions, some of
which he made by his law-practice. and
the balance by marriage. He 4. expected
to supply the soap and sugar oc the cam
paign. which Levi p. Morton, OF New
York. so discreetly declined to do.
II. Clay Evans. of Tennessee, got quite
respectable vote. a large portion of
which came from the North.
VIRGINIA'S CHOICE.
The Virginia delegation, through Dele
gate F. Bailey, placed General James A.
Walker in nomination for Vice-Presldent,
and gave him its vote. and this after
some routine business. wound up its work
at ST. Louis. Altogether. the Virginia
Republican contingent, white and colored,
do fairly well. They came here with
hio erings and family dssensions, which
hoy still nurse. 1t must be said, and
carry away with them to enliven the
coming campaign In the Old Dominion.
Colonel Browning, one of the most
effective and adroit political workers
among the Virginia Republicans. was
denied the opportunity of airing his elo-
quence by seconding the nomination OF
Evans, as previously arranged, under
the railroad cutoff programme laid down
by Mark Hanna.
They all expect to leave for home to-
morrow.

DECLINES JOINT DEBATE.

Judge Russell. Republican
nominee for Governor declines
to meet Cy Watson, Democratic
nominee in joint debate, and
with his usual and noted Chi
canery, shifts such responsible
ity from his shoulders to those
of his committee.
But this want cut much of a
figure after the 18th, when Guth-
rie will enter the field, and the
rice farmer Of New Hanover
will dream Of his school boy
days-of the openings line
of Caesar, "Om MIA Gallia
divisa est in tres pastes, y
(Ail Gaul is divided into Il rec
parts) and realise that his part
is that Of defeat; and farther,
that all the gaul of bitterness
must not be given the people
that politicians must take their
share along with other folks.
There has for several years
been a growing sentiment in the
rural districts against voting for
q lawyer for anything save
Judge or solicitor. Now, all of
the Gubernatorial candidates
are lawyers Of reputation, and Il
will be Hobson's choice so far
az this is concerned. 1t can
hardly be claimed by either

hurt him.

suppose the exception would be

the masses Of Democrats with in,

'cepted as true the announcement
that such a deal was on foot, the
knowledge was received with hor.
ror and indignation. Now we are
