nominee for governor. Turbulent scenes
marked the opening of the convention.
The anti-fusicnists had swept every
thing before them, capturing the
temporary and permanent organi-
cation and all the committees,
and they were on their mettle. Nor was
the policy adopted by the fusionists
calculated to temper the feeling which,
had been aroused among the middle
of-the-road' Populists. The threat of
the fusionists to explode a bomb in
the convention was like Haunting a red
flag and when the convention assembled
the delegates were ready for any sur
prise that might be sprung.
Promised Sensation Appears.
The report of the committee on rules
and order of business brought out the
promised sensation. The report pro-
vided that no speech should exceed five
minutes, regardless of the subject dis
cussed. Several delegates Immediately
Joined in a protest against this pro-
vision, claiming that it was contrary
to the fundamental principle of the Peo-
pies party, and an amendment was Of
fered to strike from the report the OBJ
noxious section. Finally Peter Witt, Of
Cleveland, secured recognition from
Chairman Seitz and mounting a chair
proceeded to denounce the committee
making the report. and asserted that
the convention had been bought out
by Mark Hanna.

He claimed he had proof that dele
gates had been bribed by the Republ-
cans; he had the proof. providing he
was given an opportunity to produce
1t. The matter could not be presented
in five minutes. however. nor discussed
in that time. and he charged that the
committees report was aimed to pre-
vent it. AS Witt waved aloft in his
hand piece of paper which he claimed
was check that had been given to one
of the delegates by an agent of Mark
Hanna he launched into bitter ir-
vective against the anti-fusionists,
charging that all of them had been cor
rupted by Hanna money. A score of
delegates were on their feet in an in
slant, crowding around the chair on
which Witt stood.
