SENATOR Villas.
The Wisconsin Delegate Supports His
Colleagues Argument.

The demonstration over Senator Hill
was at its hight when Senator Villas as
cended the platform to support mis- col
leagues argument. and his appearance
there was lost sight of in the general
confusion Hills progress to his place
among the New York delegation was Il
series of handshaking. Even after the
demonstration had ceased it was some
time before order could be obtained

party revolution. If the majority per-

SENATOR TILLnAN
Delivers the First Speech in Favor of
the Majority Report.

Senator Tillman of South Carolina
was the first speaker in favor of the
majority report. When he ascended
the platform he was greeted with
cheers and Kisses. He began by re-
ferring to the way in which the lying
newspapers had misrepresented him
when they called him the "pitchfork
man" from South Carolina, and said
that he came from the secession. He
denounced these statements as an in
suit to South Carolina. They We're
there, he said, to inargurate a war to
liberate the white slaves. He did not
know whether he could be looked on as
the representative of the whole South.
His listeners seemed to have the same
doubt, for there We're many cries of
mo, no. and much confusion.
Tillman resumed: I'VE have been

water in bondage to the States of New
York. Connecticut and New Jersey.

CONVENTION! OPENED.
EXTENDED DEBATE OVER THE
PLATFORM,
Participated in by Hill, TiIlman, Villas,
Jones, Ex-Governor Russell and
Ex-COngressman Bryan.

CHICAGO, July 9.-The delegates
were slow in reaching the convention
hall this morning, and it was nearly IL
O'Clock before the fall of the gavel an
nounced that another days session of
the National Democratic Convention
had begun There were at that time
many empty seats in the part of the
hall reserved for the delegates, but the
seats of the spectators We're all occu-
pied.
Before the convention was called 10
order the principal subject of interest
was the announcement that the Com
mittee on Platform had added to the
platform a strong plank against the A
P. A. and declaring that every citizen
of the United States is entitled to civil
and religious liberty.
1t was just 1852 o'clock when the
Chairman called the convention to or
der.
Senator White of California, Perma-
nent Chairman, called the assembly to
order. Prayer was offered by Rev.
Thomas f. Green, who offered prayer
yesterday. Representative Richardson
Of Tennessee was then called to the
chair.
Senator Jones of Arkansas presented
the report of the Committee on Plat
form and the various points in the plat
form were enthusiastically cheered as
they were read.
When the Cuban plank was reached
someone in the front aisle unfurled
the flag and waved it. This effort at
theatrical effect was promptly sup
pressed by the Chairman, who raped
sharply and commanded the Sergeant
alarms to Haul down that flag"
which was Immediately done, and the
incident was brought to an ignominious
close.
The platform is substantially as
printed yesterday.
Senator Hill presented a minority re-
port from the Committee on Resolu-
tions, which condemns free coinage of
silver and advocates that all money be
kept at a, parity with gold. Another
plank indorses the adminstra ton of
Cleveland Both these pranks were en-
Enthusiastically cheered. especially the
latter. Many Of the delegates and the
larger part of the audience sDrang to
their feet and waved hats and hand
plause showed that Cleveland had not
yet lost all his popularity.
Two amendments were then read by
Senator Hill as follows: First amend
ment:
But it should be carefully provided
by law that any change in the none
tary standard should not apply to ex-
listing contracts"
Second amendment: Our advocacy of
the Independent and free coinage of sill

coinage will effect and maintain a
parity between gold and silver at the
ratio of is to /, we declare and pledge
our sincerity that if such free coinage
shall fail to effect such parity within
one year from its enactment by law.
such coinage shall thereupon be sus-
pended"

REMARKABLE SCENE.
Extraordinary Demonstration for the
Nebraska Orator.

Then ensued perhaps the most extra
ordina~v scene of this extraordinary
convention. AS if by the magic touch of
a wand, delegation after delegation rose
in solid phalanX and gave vent to the
most enthusiastic demonstration in
honor of the Nebraska orator Every
body stood -, even the Eastern men,
who were a first disposed to remain in
their seats. Westerners shouted, waved
handkerchiefs, hats, flags, canes, UNI
brellas and anything else conspicuous
and portable. Deafening cheers rent the
air; articles of every description were
thrown high above the surging sea of
humanity. The staffs bearing the names
of the States were held aloft with flags

nearly all of the silver States and Terri
tories and some gold States joined in H
procession bearing the State poles and
marched in triumph around the floor.
Some of the Eastern States kept their
sign staffs in their places and confined
their expressions to standing UP and
giving a mild cheer as individuals. This
furore continued for a quarter of am
hour and no efforts were made by the

and the sight Of his erect figure brought
many to their feet. The galleries seemed
to rise as a man, and the waving sea Of
hats, newspapers and everything at
hand that could be made conspicuous
rose and fell over the hall The at
tempts of the Chair to still tho tlimult
were unavailing. and although most of
the delegates resumed their seats after
several minutes OF cheering The CALLER
les would not be quiet and yelled and
shouted with hearty good will.
All this time the object of the lem
onstration stood cool. facing his enthu-
saStic friends. He showed no feeling
in facial expression and glanced
straight ahead. Then gradually the tu-
multi ended and finally silence reignad.
Mr.. Hill began in slow and distinct
tones, saying that, following the course
OF the Senator from South Carolina, he
would introduce himself by saying, q
am a Democrat. but / am not revo-
lutionist." (Cheers) Without intending
to especially reply to the remarks of the
disti lguished Senator from South Caro-
lima, he would only say that it was a
waste of time for him to assume that we
were so ignorant as not to know that It
was South Carolina that in 1SUO at
tempted to destroy the Union. His
(Hilfs) mission here to-day was to build
up, not to destroy. He knew he ad-
dressed a convention that did not agree
with ali the views he held, but ne knew
they would hear him for his CO use. New
York made no apology to South Caro-
lima. (Cheers) She did not need it.

wealth had been so decried, that had

JONES OF ARKANSAS
Also Speaks in Favor of the Platform
Reported by the Majority.

When Tillman had finished he was
followed by Senator Jones of Arkansas,
who, of course, spoke in favor of the
majority report. This was not, he said,
a question of section. He loved the
whole of this great country, and would
lay down his life for it. He loved it be-
yond all question of sectionalism. They
were now engaged in an effort to re-
store the liberties of their fathers.
His reference to the John Sherman
and Cleveland Republicanism was
greeted with laughter and cheers. He
said that they had repudiated sin in the
platform, but had not mentioned the
sinner. He denounced Cleveland as un-
democratic and tyrannical. and offered
an amendment to the platform to that
effect. He denounced, moreover, the
issue of bonds in time of peace as a
usurpation of authority deserving i'm
parchment.
AS he left the platform he was greet
ed with mingled cheers and Kisses. and

New York leader now?"
This question again excited the gal
leries, and was greeted with laughter,
cheers and Kisses. Then one man called
out, as an answer. In the soup" An
other called for Herr Most. And then
there were cries throughout the audi
ence for Hill; and for a while confusion
reigned. Tillrnan became angry as the
confusion increased, and said that he
would have his say if he had to stand
there until sundown.
Finally, when quiet was restored, he
said that the New York Senator would
have his turn on the platform. Hill
had forced the present issue, and would
have a chance to explain his reasons.
To indorse the Administration of
President Cleveland would be to write
themselves asses and liars He spoke
of the bond syndicate, and denounced
Cleveland for overriding his oath and
invading the State of Illinois with Gov
