nomination, and that it was free fol
all contest.
The call of counties proceeded slowly.
Hamilton County, the home of John
r. Mclean, divided its vote almost
equally between the candidates to con-
tradict the report that Mclean was
debating the slate nomination
Before the ballot was completed Jo-
seph Bowling withdrew Paul j. Sorg
and moved to suspend the rules and
nominate Horace L. Chapman by ac-
clama tion Great confusion reigned.
Mr.. Chapman is a large owner of
coal mines. He has never held any
office and is very popular with the
miners, never having had a strike.
The motion of Mr.. Dowling was final
ly declared out of order and pande-
monium reigned for some time. There
were 9o9 votes cast, with 4SO neceS-
sary to a choice. The first ballot for
Governor resulted as follows: Sorg 11S,
Smalley 1854, Thurman rs, Donovan
1874, Chapman 2411a, Hunter 81, Van
Meter 80 Patrick 60, Rice 53, Reeves
II, Warner g. Lentz 9.
Before the second ballot bengan it
was announced that the names of Sorg
and Hough had been withdrawn, and
that no motion to suspend the rules and
nomination by acclamation could be en-
tertained as long as there was more
than one name before the convention.
During the second ballot there were
several disturbances and more delay.
Hamilton County cast it's seventy-six
votes solid for Chapman. This set the
tide strongly.
The second ballot resulted Smalley
40, Thurman 40, Donovan S51@, Chap
man 1897, Hunter 13. Sloane 1, Patrick
4 Rice 142, Lentz, Is. Necessary to a
choice, 4S9
Horace l.. Chapman was then de-
clared the nominee of the convention.
The nomination was unanimous and a
committee appointed to escort Mr..
Chapman to the hall.
Ex-State Senator Melville Shaw was
nominated for Lieutenant-Gov
Then Horace l.. Chapman, the nom
inee for Governor, addressed the con-
vention on the silver question in ac-
cepting the nomination.
General E. B. Finley moved to take
from the table the reports on giving the
silver Republicans and the Populists
each a representative on the State
ticket. General A. J. Warner addressed
the convention in favor of such repre-
sentation and a general discussion was
precipitated amid much confusion.

The Bel1efourche Bank Robbers
Elude Their Pursuers.

DEADWOOD (S. ID, June 30-The
chase after the outlaws who attempted
to loot the Bellefourche Bank has so

long stretch of country between them
and their pursuers. A number of the
