| Huntington, w. Va, August lO.-Ihe
most exciting judicial convention ever
held in the State was the judicial con-
vention of the Eighth district here TO-
day. Early in the day great crowds OF
enthusiastic persons began pouring into
the city from the various counties, and
when two o'clock arrived one-tenth OF
the persons could not get into the Court
House.
Every one predicted trouble, and all
the delegates and many visitors pre-
senr.d the appearance of walking ar
senals.
Chairman Thomas A. Watt, Of the
Judicial Committee, called the conven-
ton to order and named J. Carey Alder
son. of Logan county, temporary chair
man.
The faction favorable to w. w. Mar
cum for judge opposed this and became
severe in their denunc!ations OF Chair
man Watt
Mr.. Anderson went forward to the
judges stand, and the greatest confusion
began.
a number Of the delegates favorable
| to Marcum lost all control of themselves
and a crowd made a mad rush toward
Chairman Anderson. He Attempted TO
defend himself but the enraged moo
seized him and pitched him directly over
the Judges stand into the aisles, and
many persons struck him while he was
en- route.
The Harvey forces attempted to pro-
tect their chairman and a riot ensued,
and no less than twenty revolyers were
fourshed. Knives were pulled and
canes were used. The excitement was
intense and the officials were power
less.
Sheriff jenkins was knocked down
and his revolver taken from him.
A stampede was made for every avail
able exit. and persons were knocked
down and tramped upon.
Half an hour later quiet was restored
and both sides began holding their con-
ven,ions
II was not long until another riot
broke out, but by the largely increased
police force this was quelled.
Capt John G. Dickson was struck
with brass knucklers and is painfully
bruised. Alber, Watts. of Wayne coun-
Ity is stabbed about the head. A dozen
other persons were bruised more or less,
including Sheriff Jenkins, Of Cabell
county.
Both sides proceeded with conventions
in the same hall. The Harvey delegates
declare Judge Harvey elected.
The Marcum faction declare eX-Judge
Marcum elected and this is The condi-
ton matters are in tonight.

their beaming features since they struck
the city limits.
The exceptionally long train on the
Pennsylvania Central, which i, was al
most impossible to traverse during the
las, hundred miles because Of the nu-
merous committees and enthusiasts
who had boarded and spread themselves
out over its conyeniences, ran into the
Pittsburg depot at $50 p. m.
1t was Immediately surrounded by
acres on acres Of frantic people. When
Mr.. Bryan emerged from the train, in
spite OF the efforts OF The large local
committee TO carry out its programme
the crowd closed around him and i, was
a free for all fight from that time on for
every person in the Bryan party except
Mr.. and Mrs. Bryan and Mr. and Mrs.
Bland
When they entered their carri~ges
the relentless throng closed around
them. and seemed to bear them along at
its will. Through the various streets
traversed no available space could be
discerned. Every foot OF ground along
the way was occupied by enthusiasts.
Wnen The Central Hotel was reached q
Gordon Of police was stationed at the
main entrance and formed a narrow
passageway leading 10 the staircase.
No one was allowed to tread it except
he could show unmistakable creden-
tials. There were police on the stairs
police in the halls, police at the dining
room door and everywhere else where
men and women might seek to 90 and
even at the door of the Bryans' room.
While Mr.. and Mrs. Bryan were sup
ping with a committee Of ladies and
gentlemen, the streets resounded with
the continuous clamor from thousands
of throats. Many marching clubs pierced
Rhe stubborn crowds amid showers
Of pyrotechnics and & roar that would
have rivalled Niagara's thunders.

Long before the hour OF opening the
doors the entire street in front Of these
structures was packed full along the en-
tire block, and after the doors had been
opened and the structures were filed,
the crowd outside had suffered little
percepdble diminution. a corps of
about 100 policemen was on duty at the
various entrances. and at the course Of
the early evening there was an incipi-
en-. riot, in which one man was severely
beaten and some Of the officers had
their brass buttons torn of.
