FOURTH ROLL CALL.
Bryan's people went wild at the be-
ginning Of the fourth roll call, when
Alabama changed her twenty-five votes
from Bland to Bryan. The Nebraska
delegates climbed to their chairs and
led cheer. Idaho followed suit by
bringing her six votes from Bland to
Bryan. There had been a commotion
very visible in progress IN the Illinois
ranks which portended a change, but
she held firm to Bland. Kansas march
ed from the Bland to the Bryan camp
with twenty votes, followed by Nevada,
which was carried from Mclean 10 the
Nebraska man. Ohio. although cast
ing her vote under the unit rule, show
ed nine Bryan men in her ranks. Ore
gon this time gave her solid vote 90
Bryan, an increase from five TO eight.
BREAK UP COMING.
After the fourth roll call the Penn
sylvania delegation filed out of the hall
for consultation. Bryan emblems be-
gan to bloom out on the floor and IN
the galleries. The dark horse had
plunged into the race so late that there
were no portraits of him 10 be found in
the city large enough for convention
purposes. A morning newspaper which
had printed full paper picture OF the
convention star orator was much in de-
mand. Copies Of it were stuck upon
canes in the galleries and a Mississippi
man hung one sheet 10 me standard of
that state. That there was an upheaval
Of the waters in Illinois became appar-
ent when Buck Henrichsen asked
leave for the delegation to retire for
consultation. The issue was whether
to stand by Silver Dick or follow the
Nebraskan.
The result of the ballot was announc-
ed: Not voting 1872; Bland %; Boies 80;
Matthews So; Mclean 46; Bryan $50.
ANOTHER BRYAN CYCLONE.
Bryan had assumed the lead and the
favoite had dropped back into the ruck.
The reading clerk got no further than
the announcement of Bryan $50 votes
before there was a repetition Of the
scene OF yesterday when the eloquent
young orator closed his speech. The
Coliseum swayed with enthusiasm Cheer
followed cheer The state standards
were again uprooted and carried to
Nebraska Louder and louder the
