ST. LOUIS, June 1s.-After the de-
not to present the name Of Morton
owing to the war waged against him
by the Warner Miller faction, the
nomination of Hobart, of New Jersey,
became a certainty. Mr.. Hanna and
the Mckinley influence was thrown
for him. and although there was an
attempt to consolidate the West and
South on H. Clay Evans, of Tennessee,
the Mckinley infience was too power
full. Besides it was the general sense
of the delegates that the logic of the
situation required the nomination OF an
Eastern man for vice president. The
nominating speeches were brief. Buck
ley, Of Connecticut; Lippett, of Rhode
Island, and Gen. Walker of Virginia,
were placed in nomination, and it only
required one ballot to determine the
contest. Hobart received 5301s votes,
80 more than a majority. Evans. his
nearest competitor, received 2S01a. and
there were scattering votes for Reed,
Thurston, Grant. Depew, Morton and
Brown.
Garrett A. Hobart was born at Long
Branch, N. j., in 1874. After receiv-
ing a common school education, he at

The speakers did as well as could be

ST. LOUIS, June 18.-The Republican
ciples to the masthead today and
placed in command of the ship which is
to bear them on to fortune or disaster
in November, their popular idol, Will
lam Mckinley, Of Ohio. But there
was mutiny aboard, and at the last
moment, before the lines were cast
off, the crew who had shipped in many
voyage, refused to subscribe to the
new shipping articles and walked down
the gang plank.
The convention was in session for
ten hours today to accomplish the work
cut out for it. and several different
times was tragic, dramatic and inspir-
ing. Fully 10000 people were in the
vast audience to hiss or cheer by the
turns. The bolt Of the silver men
from the West was fully discounted,
but it nevertheless furnished the most
dramatic incident of the day. Lead
by Senator Teller, theyshad yesterday
declared their intention of refusing to
subscribe to the gold plank in the
platform, but today after Senator Tel
Ter had made his final appeal to the
convention not to take the step which
would drive him and his colleagues out
from the ranks of the party, which, in
the past had honored them, and they
had delighted to serve, and the con-
vention had voted, 81S1a to 1867 to
stand by the gold declaration in the
platform, no one who witnessed the
scene will forget to his last day the
picture Of Senator Frank Cannon, Of
Utah, facing from the platform 10000
irate, kissing, jeering people, as he
read the protest of the silver men,
He stood erect and defiant, his pale
face set in grim determination, as those
before him tried to cry him down until
the very courage he displayed

which compelled silence. When he fin
ished, the crowded galleries greeted
him with jeers and disapproval, but in
the most courtly fashion he turned and
shook hands with Senator Foraker, the
chairman Of the committee On resolu-
tions, and other hands on the platform.
Then locking arms with Senator Teller,
the two men left the stand, moved
down to where the standard Of the
Idaho delegation stood. There they

gestiye speech. While announcing that
he did not propose to retire from the Re
publican party at the present time, he
had practically received notice that he
could not hope to keep Montana in the
party on the present platform. The
silver episode over, the national COM
mittee was appointed, the only incident
of which was the protest Of Berry Car
son, the celebrated delegate from
Washington, who got himself on the
committee in 1883 and remained there
for sixteen years. H protested
against being bounced at this time, but
the chairman told him he must settle
with his own delegation, and as there is
only another man in the delegation be-
side himself they will have to fight 1t
out in some back yard.
1t was p. m. when the roll of states
was begun to be called for the nomina-
ton of candidates for the presidency.
All Of the nominations were entirely

Dubois, and the three men continued
their march to the main door.
Their followers fell in behind them
as they moved along. 1t was a small
band, several of the delegates from
the states of Utah and Montana, in
cluding Senators Carter and Mantle,
of the latter state, preferring to sub
scribe to the platform than to sever
their allegiance to their party, and
the delegates, only few of whom dis
played any bitterness toward what
they believed to- be the misguided
course of their colleagues, breathed
sigh of relief when 1t was over.
Never before has there been a bolt
from the Republican party, although
Wendell Phillips and some more radical
Republicans held convention at
Cleveland, O., in 1884, and placed in
the field ticket in opposition to the
Lincoln and Johnson. The radicals
on that occasion, however, withdrew
their ticket and returned to the fold
before the election In November The
silver men who bolted today immedi-
ately perfected plans to place Senator
Teller. before the people as an inde-
pendent silver candidate for president
in the hope the Democrats at Chicago,
if controlled by the silver men, would
place his name at the head of their
ticket
1t was a foregone conclusion that
Mckinley would be nominated but the
pentup enthusiasm Of the friends of
the Ohio candidate found full vent The

THE POLITICAL SITUATION
Responsible for the Sudden "Fire" Given
Willie Astor's Editor.

London, February 1O.-The Times
this morning prints Mr.. Henry J. c.
Gusts explanation of mis- dismissal from
the position of editor of the Pail Mall
Gazette in the form of a correspond
ence between himself and Mr. w. w.
Astor, the proprietor of the Pail Mall
Gazette.
Mr.. Astor gives as his reasons for
asking him to resign the constant
sneers and disparaging comments upon
America printed in the Pail Mall Ga
zette and the habitual disregard Of Mr..
AstOr's instructions by the editor Mr..
As,Or wrote to Mr.. Gust on February
Sd as follows:
I'VE are suddenly confronted with
dangerous controversy between Eng
land and the United States in which
am deeply interested. l cannon longer
be responsible for the utterances of a
paper over which I exercise only a nom
inal control. l therefore regret that
I am constrained to ask you 10 resign.
I sincerely regret the precipitancy of
this action. which is due to the political
situation"
The Chronicle understands that DOu-
glass Straight. who has been made edi-
tor of the Pail Mall Gazette, is only a
temporary appointment, as Mr.. Astor
intends to secure an American editor
for the paper.
