STATEHOOD OF OKLAHOMA.


Two Factions at War in the Con-
ventiOn.
The statehood convention was opened at
Oklahoma City, Oklahoma, yesterday after
noon with good prospects for merry war
of factions A large share Of the delegates
favor forming a state with the Chickasaw
nation added, and with provision allow
ing other nations of the Indian Territory
to come in as they wish. Others are
strongly opposed to such action, and desire
a single state formed by the union of Ok
lahoma and Indian Territory.
A fight was in sight as soon as the con-
Thompson, a double statcr." and w. T.
Walker, a single stater," took sides on
each end of the platform, and tried to talk
at the same time. At once the delegates
mounted chairs and each faction yelled for
it's side.
Amid the clamor T.F. Hensley, double
stater.' was nominated for chairman, and
SO soon as his name was mentioned he
jumped to the stage. For five minutes he
talked against the clamor. Gradually his
loud tones drowned out the noise, and one
delegate after another subsidized and listen
ed to his speech.
Then the question of selecting the COM
mittee on credentials arose. Finally Chair
man Hensley declared the motion to ap-
point five members on the committee car
tted. These opposed yelled an appeal from
the decision of the chair.
From till $50 O'clock the delegates, 800
of them, howled. Then Patrick Nagle of
kingfisher pleaded for peace and harmony,
and moved that the committee on creden-
tails be composed of one from each dele
cation.
This was carried and then there was a
lively quarrel over the recognition of the
delegates from the Chickasaw nation. At
ter wrangling for another half hour, Dick
Flunkert, the noted eX-prize fighter, for
merly of Denver vas appointed sergeant
alarms. He walked TO the stage, and mis-
great length and breadth of form seemed
to awe the delegates. They Quieted down
and Plunkett said:
"Gentleman, l am proud to be sergeant
alarms of this convention, which is the
pride OF the territory. We want order here
and we have got to have it,
The delegates from the Chicilasaw nation
were recognized and the committee Oil ere
dentials retired.
At S:15 last night the statehood conven-
committee on credentials having been I'M
able to report, owing to the strife between
the single staterS'' and the double stat
ers." Chairman Hensley declared the con-
vention adjourned sine die.
FSr naif hour afterward the utmost
confusion prevailed, and, finally, when the
uproar was approaching the proportions of
riot, Sheriff Deford turned out the lights
and ordered the Delegates from the hall
into the street. This it is believed. will
end all organized effort to secure statehood
from the present Congress.

1t is the intention of Senator Tillman to
make reply to Senator Sherman's finan-
cial speech. The new Senators in the pres
ent Congress have utterly ignored the sena-

and Tillman is not troubled with more
modesty than is common. He is to make a
very ambitious effort, and it is predicted
that his speech will be impetuous and
original, if nothing else.
