Omaha, Neb, Dec. 15.-The question has
been raised as to whether William Allen,
appointed senator from this state. can
be seated The contention Of some IS
that. Hayward never having taken his
seat, the whole matter is in the same
position as ia states where the legisla-
ture failed to elect at the expiration q
OF the term OF his predecessor. The cues
ton IS said 10 have occssioned Hayward
considerable worry before his death.
Several lawyers who have been inter
viewed did not care 10 express a decided
opinion. Some we're OF tbs impression
that the legislature having made an cleo
ton the failure Of the party elected 70
qualify would not deprive the state q

Mr. Shields introduced Henry Burke,
chairman of the citizens committee, who
said that Philadephi had not IN twenty
eight years asked for anything from the
Republican party, although it was the
wheel-horse of the party as the largest
Republican majority in the union. Be-
sides, Pennsylvania had raised the lar
gest campaign fund in the national cam
pagns.
Mayor Samuel H Ashbridge was then
introduced and was given rousing re-
ception. He made a strong presentation
of the claims and attractions of Phila-
delphia-
General Harry Bingham, the represent
alive in congress from one Of the Phila-
deiphia districts, in a graceful speech,
concluded the presentation Of Philadel-
phias claims. If the convention was to
be a ratification meeting, as he agreed,
he said the convention could not do bet
ter than come to Philadelphia, nominate
Mckinley and adopt the resolution of the
last Republican state convention of Penn
sylvania.
After the presentation of the claims of
the four cities was completed, the COM
mittee, upon the suggestion Of Chair
man Hanna, took a recess until 2;SO.
Chairman Hanna announced that there
would be further opportunity to present
arguments upon the chief convention city
in executive session this afternoon.
At the afternoon session the vote was
taken, resulting as above stated.
During the meeting OF the committee,
Cyrus Leland of Kansas offered the fol-
lowing resolution, when went over IN
