two-thirds of all, the convention burst
into another furious demonstra on.
Finally Thurston recognized Senator

in which he pledged the support of the
followers of Reed to the nominee. Cen
eral Hastings, OF Pennsylvania, fol-
lowed in behalf of the Quay contingent.
Chauncey Depew arose to second the
motion on behalf of New York, but the
chairman recognized Plat, who in a
simple sentence seconded the molon
and pledged the state of New York to
Mckinley. Eloquent Dave" Hender-
son, of Iowa, spoke for Allison. Shouts
for Depew and Hanna came from all
parts of the hall. Both responded.
When the motion to make the nominal
ton unanimous was put, the delegates
rose en- masse

point and thousands of people left The

to close the work of the convention be-

president was educated as a lawyer,
but has gone into manufacturing, and
is the president of several companies,
in which he represents large financial
interests, but does not own much stock
himself. He lives at Patterson and
may be considered the most public
spirited and influential citizen o. that
place. Mrs. Hobart might be consid-
cred the social leader of Patterson and
entertains great deal, but in an I'M
ostentatous way. Mr.. Hobart is a ma
tive of New Jersey, a graduate OF Rut-
gers college, in the class of So. and

urally became a director in various
companies. and when they did not pay
he generally was appointed receiver or
manager. so that after time he drlSted
out of the law into the active charge OF
manufacturing establishments owned
by his clients. He was receiver and
afterward president OF the New Jersey

articles and walked down the gang
plank. The convention was held in
session for ten hours to accomplish the
work cut out for it and at several diff
ferent times was tragic, dramatic and
inspiring. Fully 10000 people were in
the vast audience TO hiss or cheer by
turns. The bolt of the silver men
from the west was fully discounted but
it nevertheless furnished the most
