AT THE EVENING SESSION.
Statesmen Grow Eloquent I'm PIac-
ing the Various Candidates in
Nomination.

CHICAGO, ILL.,, July 9.-The masses OF
spectators at this evenings session were,
if possible, denser and the excitement
more intense than at any previous session
of the convention, because the crisis of the
nominating speeches and the balloting for
Presidential candidates had arrived. There
was not a vacant seat outside of the Sec
tons for delegates and alternates at 8
O'clock the hour to which the recess ex-
tended, and still the crowds kept pouring
in as though the supply of tickets was in
exhaustible and the capacity of the spa
cious and magnificent hall could not be
put to too severe test. The illumination
by electric lamps was perfect but the heat
sitting.
The New York delegation held caucus
before coming to the convention hall and
discussed the best steps to take in this
evenings programme. 1t was decided to
come 10 the hall and take their seats, but
not to take part in the balloting. They
also decided not to bolt the convention.
The convention was called to order at
$50 P. NJ. by its presiding officer, Senator
White of California, who immediately
handed over the gavel to Representative
Richardson of Tennessee, who acted as
president pro tenn. this evening as we'll as
during the morning session.
1t took the sergeant alarms and his
assistants fully ten minutes to allay the
uproar and confusion and to obtain even a
tolerable degree of order, and even that
lasted for only very brief interval, for
every moment, on one pretense or another.
the crowds broke out with cheering.
The chairman informed the convention
that the roll OF States would now be called
so the nominations of the candidates for
the Presidency could be made. By ar
agreement entered into by the friends of
the several candidates, the chairman
added, the nominating and seconding
speeches would be confined to thirty
minutes in length, which time might be
used either when the nominations were
made or when the State OF the speaker was
called.
Senator Vest of Missouri was the first
delegate to ascend the platform, even be-
fore the call of States had got further in
the alphabetical list than the State OF
Arkansas.
Mr.. Vest spoke as follows:
Resolutions do not begin with the rich and
prosperous. They represent the protest of
those who are suffering from political condi-
tions and whose demands for relief are de-
nounced by the beneficiaries of unjust and op-
pressivelegislation
When profound sense of wrong, evolved

The official declarations OF Georgia and
Louisiana in favor of Bryan for the NOM
ination caused rumors galore, and reports
fairly flew about that other States would
fall into the Bryan column. Illinois was
mentioned as one of these. Governor
AItgeId denied the rumor, however, say
ing: ut is absolutely untrue. Illinois
has already declared in favor OF Mr..
Bland"
The friends of Mr.. Bryan left the con-
vention hall at recess confident of NOM
mating their man, and if appearances
count for anything they were certainly
justified in their enthusiasm for him.

A NOTE OF wARING.
Uncle Sam Pats TOO Much Work
Upon His Naval Engineers.

Washington. August 13.-The alarm
ing news received today at the Navy
Department, telling of the physical col
lapse of Chief Engineer George T. Tow
er. and Passed Assistant Engineer An
drew McAllister. both of the battleship
Indiana. gave rise In the minds of naval
officers on duty here 10 the question
whethe in the case of our warships the
danger line had not been crossed in the
gineers to carry on the eXacting duties
required of them.
The North Atlantic squadron has now
had only eight days of grand manoeu-
vres and during that short period the
efficiency of the most powerful battle
ship of the fleet has been temporarily
impaired, two of the four naval engi-
neers attached 10 the vessel having
been condemned by medical survey and
sent to the naval hospital for treatment
1T is not surprising" said a promi-
tale of the prostration of naval engi-
neers is heard from our warships. In
the British service there are one half
as many engineers as deck officers, while
In the American navy there are only one
fourth as many engineers as there are
officers in the line.
The physical history of the corps of
engineers" he continued, during the
past two years Is n sad one, and II en-
phasizes the fact that not only must
the number of engineers be increased.
but their condition should be improved
In order to render the ships efficient for
the duty of battle. The engineers are
HoW working under an organization
which was founded upon the necessities

John w. Hayes, General Secretary of

does. He said this afternoon that the
trouble began in July. 1894. when the

said, but are carried on the rolls. I'm
der the Constitution of the knights
any ten men who remain in an assembly
after the others withdraw can retain
the charter of that branch, so that in
case the glass workers carry out their
threats to withdraw, any ten men who
remain will serve to continue the organ
