DUBLIN, Sept. 1.-At the first ses-
sion of the Irish national convention
today it was estimated that the Irish
race throughout the world was repre-
sented by 600 to 700 delegates. The
United States, Canada, Australia and
South Africa are represented. Charles
Dillon oppressed the opinion that the sue
cess of the convention was already as
sured and the attendance would be twice
as great as they dared to hope for. He
said the delegates present represented
four-fifths of the Irish nationalists and
there was good number of Parnellites
present in spite of the opposition of the
leaders of the latter party
A meeting of forty foreign delegates
took place last night, thirty-tive being
from the United States or Canada, at
which it was proposed to appoint COM
mittee of seven foreign delegates per-
sonally to interview Messrs. Redmond,
eHaly and Dillon with the object of
inducing all factions to support one
leader. 1t was suggested that all dona-
tions from foreign sources should be
stopped in case the warning factions
failed to come to an understanding. The
resolution was stubbornly opposed by
M. J. Ryan of Philadelphia who insist
ed that action should be postponed until
tonight. After a heated discussion of
two hours the meeting dispersed with
out having accomplished anything.
The convention was called to order at
noon by Justin Mccarthy, M. p, who
nominated Most Rev. Patrick O'Donnell,
d. D., bishop of Raphoe, for permanent
chairman. The bishop was unanimous
ly elected amid wild applause
Bishop O'Donnell read a message from
the pope in which his highness prayed
that the Irish leaders might end all
dissensions.
The chairman then speciallywelcomed
the delegates from the United States
and Canada and delivered an address,
pleading for unity.
Bishop O'Donnell referred to the pub
ilcation in June last of the re port of the
commission on the financial relations
of Ireland and Great Britain which
showed Ireland to be heavily overtaxed,
and he said that this document is show
ing how Ireland had been despoiled and
that this astounding revelation of the
commission was sufficient again to
sbring forward the whole Irish question
and alone justified the calling of the
convention. Abiding to the disunion
among the different Irish factions, the
bishop declared that no man or set of
men must put themselves in competi-
ton with the cause of Ireland. This
remark caused all the delegates to rise

John p. Irish Thinks He Feels the Public
Pulse
INDIANAPOLIS, Sept. John P.
Irish of California, who has been one
of the most active leaders of the gold
Democratic movement on the Pacific
coast, arrived today Mr.. Irish says
that the people of the east are not aware
Of the conditions existing on the coast,
and declares that three states, Cali
fornia, Oregon and Washington, cannot
be carried for Bryan, and that there is
a possibility that Nevada will also be
carried against him.
''In California" said Mr. Irish, there
are enrolled $4,000 Democrats who will
not vote for Mr. Bryan. The Populists
concede that there are $4,000. The Re-
publicans who will vote for Bryan are
those who are discontented and belong
largely to the class of men who want to
remodel the affairs of the world. There
Is curious alliance on the coast. The
millionaires mad those who have moth
ing to lose in case of disaster are for the
Chicago ticket. Big millionaire mine
owners-gold mine owners-are for the
ticket. They want the price of their
gold enhanced, and would like to put
their working men on silver. The fruit
growers, the manufacturers and all
business men that want business &C
commodations from time to time. and
the men they employ are against Bryan.
They want stability. California, Ore
gon and Washington will not vote for
Bryan. He will be beaten in California
by $4,000.
"There is also a fair prospect that he
will be beaten in Nevada. The two SEN
ators and one representative in congress
credited to Nevada are residents of Cal
ifornia. Many citizens in Nevada resent
this They would like to have the men
who represent them in their nearest re-
lations with the national government
to be residents of thei own state. This
feeling is so strong that it may result
in defeating Bryan, who has been so
strongly supported by the three men
Jones, Stewart and Newlands-whon now
represent the state"
Mr.. Irish says that majority of the
California delegates prefer Bragg and
Buckner for the presidential ticket.

COLUMBUS, Ohio, Sept. THE free
silver campaign in Ohio touched itS
high water mark in Cleveland last night.
but the outpouring of the people to see
and hear the Democratic candidate at
the state capital tonight was greater In
proportion to the size Of the city than
that in the northern metropolis had
been. Mr.. Bryan had the state capitol
grounds for his forum, and the memory
of the local politicians contains no such
demonstration as the one in which he
played the star part. Inhabitants say
that no other attraction has ever drawn
so strongly in Columbus except dis
play of fireworks in connection with the
state fair on the grounds two years ago,
when 40 per cent more people were gath
cred. A rooted and fiag-draped plat
form faced the eastern front Of the cap
itol building and as Mr.. Bryan looked
down from it's height twenty-five feet
above the street, he saw the steps and
terraces packed in solid rows with the
gloomy stone wall for the background.
while about the other three sides of the
stage. across lawn of several acres to
the street beyond stood regiments of
which an accurate estimate was an Inn
possibility and which careful guess
would place at 100000
Looking down from the roof Of the
capitol building an hour before the
candidate appeared one saw the whole
place, on all sides. swarming with
men, women and children, large part
of the city's population, reinforced by
visitors to the state fair now in prog<
ress. They jostled and pushed abou
the grounds and poured through the cor
ridorS of the building in Kaleidoscope
currents, cheering the sky-rockets which
popped in the air and the brass bands
stationed on the steps for their enter
tainment.
From the Chiffon hotel, half a mile
away, Mr.. Bryan came to the capitol
in barouche drawn by four white
horses and under the escort of several
free silver clubs of Columbus and neigh.
boring towns, enlivened by bands and
unique campaign devices, in which sill
yer dollars shared conspicuously.
A shrill cheer marked his progress
along the street and, multiplied in its
intensity, announced his arrival at
the platform, thereafter beating the air
in wave after wave throughout his
speech. On account of the size of his
audience, Mr.. Bryan adopted a novel
method of speaking, talking to sections
of the crowd alternately from each
of the four sides of the platform and
even then not more>than a tenth of
the people could hear him.
He was introduced by Hon. Allen G.
Thurman, son Of "The Old Roman, who
has been fighting for free silver in Ohio
for several years, and after the candl-
dates speech, the Democratic nominee
for congress in the Columbus district.
Hon. J. l.. Lentz, addressed the remain-
der of the crowd.

Doubtful Districts

SAN FRANCISCO, Sept. 1.-When the
Democratic-Populist congressional confer
ence resumed it's task Of marring the polit
ical fortunes of ambitious Democratic and
Populist statesmen, one new race was OBJ
served in the ranks. 1t was that of Senator
Henry G. Gesford. He filled the seat of
ex-Congressman Caminetti who had de-
cided that attempting to weld Populism and
Democracy was too much of task for
him and had resigned. Senator Gesford
was appointed by Chairman Afford of the
Democratic state committee to fill the va
cancy
All the afternoon the committee listened
to nominees and then took an adjournment
until 1880 PM, to hear the ones remaining
unheard-Maddox and Castle of the Sew
enth.
1t seemed to be one of the rules of the
committee that any nominee who failed to
hand in his resignation should be consid-
cred as ignoring the conference and that in
face of this his opponent should be in
dorsed.
When the adjournment was taken at the
end of the afternoon session it was deemed
probable that indorsements-if indeed the
committee could agree at all-would' be
made as follows: First, Cutler; Second,
De Vries; Third, Vann; Fourth, Mcguire;
Fifth Rogers; Sixth, Barlow; Seventh,
Maddox. There was more uncertainty in
the Sixth and Seventh than in any of the
other districts, but it was agreed that a
Populist should run in one and a Democrat
in the other. There was doubt also regard
ing the Fifth, it being the wish of some Of

The race between Colonel Murdoch
and Senator Carpenter was very excit-
ing and was so close that Wyandotte
county, being the last in the call, had
it in its power TO nominate either one
of them. ''Wyandotte county casts 10
votes for Colonel NJ. NJ. Murdoch of
Wichita" said J. K. CubbisOn, and then
a great cheer went up.
A motion was then made and seconded
to adjourn until o'clock. 1t was de-
feated and the nominations for alter
mates and presidential electors as given
above were disposed of in few minutes
after which Judge Horton declared the
convention adjourned.
NOTES
Mrs. Lease was spectator in the
convention and was highly interested
n the convention proceedings.
Senator Gordon made a brilliant
speech in presenting the name of Col
onel Murdoch to the convention.
Among the very effective speeches
made was that of Ike Lambert of En-
poria, in seconding the nomination OF
Mr.. Swanson.
Captain Pat Coney OF Topeka was
one of the Shawnee county delegation
who put down his foot and said ne
on Wichita's candidate
Hon. Tim Mccarthy was never dis
loyal in his life and he was not yes
terday. Turning Niagara Falls would
be a picnic compared TO turning the
gallant fighting Irishman from the
straight path.
Colonel Tom Hayes Of Miami county
put in some splendid ticks on the right
side. God bless the men who can stand
the test when il comes. Tom is one
OF them.
Among the most loyal and active
workers in the convention were Mort
Albaugh of Kingman. George W. Clark
Of Junction City and that ever trusty
worker, Jim Dobson.
Grand old Bourbon county with VIII
Rice and Colonel Joe Richards were
weighed and not found wanting in yes
