qualities of the hall with most satisfac-
tory results The figure of the chair
man faced the assemblage for several
minutes, while the ushers swept the
aisles clear Of the knots of comforting
delegates.
When comparative quiet obtained,
Rev. Mr. Stires, chaplain of the con-
vention, was called upon to invoke the
Divine blessing. The chaplain was a
young man, hardly 30 years old, with
smooth-shav clear cut face and wear
ing the black clerical coat, buttoned to
the chin He held in his hand roll of
typewriter manuscript which, after
moment, he laid on the desk and picked
up slip by slip, reading from it the
prayer, as he could do without exciting
comment as a representative of the
Episcopalian church.
They Cheered Hill.
AS the convention seated itself Chair
man Harrity stepped forward and with
a sharp stroke of the gavel, announced
in ringing tones the selection of David
B. Hill for temporary chairman. This
announcement was what the gold men
were waiting for, and with shout they
leaped to their feet and with waving
arms they shouted out their approval.
Among the spectators also there was a
cheer of appreciation. Some enthusiastic
delegate yelled "three cheers for David
B. Hill,' and they were given with a
will.
Senator Sheerin of Indiana, for secre-
tary, and John Martin for sergeant-at-
arms, were also announced when the
convention had quieted down.
"What is the pleasure of the conven-
tion?'' asked Mr. Harrity calmly, as if
he did not know of the storm that was
to follow.
Silver Men Could Shout, Too.
Mr. Clayton, the member of the ma
tional committee from Arkansas, arose.
Every silver man and every spectator
in the hall knew that the gauge Of bat
tie was to be thrown down and they
rose to man and cheered As soon as
he announced that his duty was to, pre-,
sent minority report the demonstra-
UndG IOllOWCu UIlS
of the selection of Mr.. Hills name was
as a breeze compared to a cyclone.
The 500 odd delegates practically
mounted their chairs and cheered,
while from 10000 throats i'll the
audience came hoarse roar Of approval
that sounded like roll of thunder.
For over three minutes the demonstra-
ton continued and it was renewed at
several points as Mr.. Clayton read the
minority report nominating Senator
Daniel.
AS he concluded with an emphatic
demand for roll cali on the PROPOSE
tion, the silver men again cheered
wildly.
Hill and Whitney, Sheehan and
Fellows, sitting III the New York dele
CATION, had evidently steeled themselves
to defeat for they chatted among them
selves and smiled at the outbursts of
applause from the silver element.
Delegate c.. S. Thomas of Colorado
seconded the demand for roll call 1t

PORTLAND. Aug, 8. 1896.
The grain market to-day was fam and high
er. Flour is very firm at the recent advance.
and the prevailing opinion is that prices will go
no lower for some time TO come. Sugars are
more active and fl mer, refined unchanged, but
some of the other grades are higher. Potatoes
about steady. Eggs scarce and lie better.
The following are to-daYs nolesale prices of
Provisions, Groceries. etc..
