MAYOR PHELAN IS
RENOMINATED BY
THE PROGRAMMES
Democrats Fear Disruption, and After
Naming Four Judges Adjourn
Their Convention.

There is dissension among the members
hundred now acting as a nominating
convention for the Democratic party Of
San Francisco.
The initial session of the convention was
held Monday evening. and last evening
another session was held at which bus-
ness was transacted down to the point
where trouble threatens. When this
point was reached, Master of Ceremo-
MES Charles w. Fay, who enjoys the rep
utation of being the mouthpiece of his
Honor, the Mayor, moved that the con-
vention adjourn until tomorrow evening.
No one objected and it was so ordered.
Fay and his friends, who have in hand
the task of making up the slate, hope
that between now and Thursday even
ing they will be able to satisfy the de-
mands of some of the members of the
convention who object to having two or
three of the nominations go to men who
are members of the committee of one
hundred. On the other hand, the OBJ
jectors declare that they intend to have
all the patronage that is at the disposal of
the convention or they will raise such a
row that Mayor Phelan and Whispering
Gavin McNab will find that the work of
bossing the Democracy requires more
than the sanction of the trustees named
by the State Central Committee.
The net result of last nights session
of the convention was the denomination
of Mayor James D. Phelan and the nom.
ination Of four Superior Court Judges.

twenty minutes and concluded without
having named Mr.. Schlesinger, an omis-
sion Of which he was reminded in a very
pointed manner by members of the lobby.
He was followed by A. Comte Jr., who
presented $40 and the name of Frank j.
Murasky to the convention. He declared
that not member of the convention had
been solicited to vote for Murasky. Some
one In the lobby proposed three cheers
for the candidate and the outsiders had a
little noise-making of their own.
Emil Pohli next took the floor, handed
up twenty-dollar note, received $40
change, and proposed the name of Judge
James NJ Seawell.
The next speaker was w. B. Cope, who
had concealed about his person the name
of Judge Rhodes Borden and a ten-dollar
note, both of which he produced between
Interruptions from the gallery. Judge e.
A. Brldgeford, having first paid his fine,
presented the name of "a young man
who possesses all of the Jeffersonian
qualifications. F. v. Costello.
A. Comte Jr. found another ten dollar
piece. and after, separating. himself from
it was permitted to place Judge William
7. Wallace In nomination. Jerome Deasy
wanted to second the nomination of
when some one in the lobby shouted
THAT fellow owes me rent"
There being no further nominations the
convention proceeded to ballot. 1t was
fused to sit In the convention, and when
his name was called he arose from his
place in the lobby and declined to vote.
The ballot resulted as follows: Borden
70,-gWallace 65, Seawell 63, Murasky So,
Schlesinger 55, Costello 49, Borden, wal
lace, Seawell and Murasky having re-
ceived the highest votes cast were de-
clared the nominees of the convention.
This business having been disposed of
Bart Burke of Santa Cruz moved that in
future no nominating speech should ex-
ceed live minutes in length. This having
been agreed to the convention was just
settling itself down in anticipation of the
! expected row over the other nominations,
when Charles w. Fay bobbed up in his
seat and moved that the convention adj
journ until Thursday evening. No objec-
ton was offered and the adjournment
was ordered 1t is expected that some
exciting caucuses will be held between
now and the time when Chairman Nc
Gee raps for order tomorrow evening.

Attorney Frank Murasky were the fortu-
nate candidates for the Superior Bench
nomination. United States District At
torney Bert Schlesinger and f. V. Cos
tello were the unsuccessful candidates.
AS on the previous evening there was
a numerous lobby present and 1t took
such a lively interest in the proceedings
of the convention that at times 1t re-
uuired the efforts of several policemen
to keep things in. working order. Mem
bers of the lobby made frequent calls
for the slate and programme but
as Chairman MCGEE declined to respond, I,
the interested spectators were compelled
10 confine their attention to oral criti-
cism of members of the convention.
Although the convention was called for
S o'clock it was several minutes past 8
o'clock before Chairman McGee raped
for order The delay was due to an un-
successful effort on the part of the pro-
grammers to secure the unquestioning
support for the slate of the disgruntled
lob chasers. The rollcall disclosed the
presence of lightweight members of the
committee of one hundred.
The resignation of Edmund Godchaux
was read and accepted, after which the
secretary read resolution declaring that
all of the labor at the disposal of the
convention and its nominees should be
given to the members of the Allied
Trades Council. The report of the commit
tee on platform was then called for. The
report was read by Joseph N. Nougues
and was accepted by the convention. The
platform, which is printed in full in
these columns, denounced boss rule In
politics, pledges the nominees of the con-
yention to carry out all sorts of reforms
besides approving of the result of the
late war with Spain. This having been
disposed of Chairman MCGEE announced
that nominations for Mayor were in or

as the person to place the name of Mayor
