HAT John r. Mclean will not be repre-
s.r.el by Chairman Dan McConvil.
1awis c.. Bernard. or any other Of his for
NOR ueutcnants who are at this conven-
,rn. and the reason for his not taking

John r. Mclean is to succeed General r.
Alrer as Secretary of War in McKinley's
Cabinet.
This caused more stir among the dele
gates than anything that has been sprung
Or years at an Ohio convention. Although
Mclean was prominently before the last
Democratic convention for the presiden-
tal nomination, and would have been
elected Senator in place of Hanna if the
Democrats had carried the Legislature
last November. and although his paper,
t.s Cincinnati Enquirer, was considered a
leading advocate Of Bryan and free silver,
tho story about McLeans probably be-
coming the successor of Alger was be-
u.yed by many Of the delegates.
GREELEY PRECEDENT.
They cited the case Of Hayes's appoint
ment OF Greeley as Postmaster-Generai
and said that Mckinley had appointed
lee. Wheeler. and other Democrats to
leading places.
u was conceded that If Mclean should
become NIoKinley's Secretary of War and
the Cincinnati Enquirer an administration
paper. II would cause a political revolu-
ton. as Mclean and his paper have been
the most potential factors in this State, as
vel as in Kentucky. Indiana, and other
States. for free silver.
The factonal fights and all other usual
issues have been overshadowed tonight
lv the discussion of the report about the
attitude of Mclean and the Enquirer.
While some delegates are busy denouncing
s., as an ante-conveution sensation and
ridicuously absurd. IT is certainly COM
mandng more attention than any other
matters which are not disputed.
The Brice. Sorg, and other elements
seem TO be circulating very studiously the
Melon story. whether they believe it to
