Rev. Edward ConnoVer who performed The
marriage ceremony 80 years ago. OF al
who were present at that time he is the

the words, no presents quite a number

SEN. WOLCOTT'S SPEECH.
Speaks of the Accomplishments Of His
Party During the Past Four Years
-Hannas Introduction.

I Philadelphia, June 19.-Charman Hanna
at 1856, called the convention to order
Prayer was offered by Rev. James Gray
Bolton, ID. d., of Philadelphia.
Senator Hanna made the opening speech
when he mentioned McKinleys name the
convention applauded, Gov. Roosevelt
waving his rough rider hat.
In making his speech calling the con-
ventIon to order, Senator Hanna stepping
to the front of the platform, surveyed the
sea of faces and in a clear voice began:
"In bidding you welcome" he said; II
also wish to congratulate you on the mag
nifico mt repl esentation from the republi, an
party
There was a round of applause as Sena-
tor Hanna rolled out the words "republi-
can party
mo mistake was made in bringing the
convention to Philade phia," Senator Han
ma went on Here was the cradle of lib
erty; here also had the republican party
seen its birth, here, too, was the centre
of that great throbbing idea-the protee-
ton of American industry"
Another wave OF applause.
1--WE are on the eve of another great
struggle. Already we are beginning &c
form our battalions, under the Leadership
OF our great statesman, William McKin-
| ley"
That was the signal, and for the first
time the convention broke forth into a
whrlwind OF enthusiasm. Men and wo-
men sprang to their feet, delegates and
spectators, and staid, distinguished guests
all animated with a common purpose. tc
do honor to the President.
Senator Hanna looked down smiling
satisfaction at the tempestuous demon
stration. Flags and handkerchiefs waved
everywhere in pillows of colors. For a
minute the demonstration was kept ny.
Again Senator Hanna invited demon

Yet the effect he produced to-day thrilled
his audience Time ana again his hearers
broke into cheers as he spoke Of the pres
ent prosperity of the country and predict
ed McKinlcys triumphant reelection. And
when he declared that the democratic
party had been driven by the events Of
the last four years from every position
it occupied in 1895 to seek new issues in
the events of the war with Spain there
was another frantic outburst. Tho same
enthusiasm swollcd out when he predicted
that this generation would see the Am
erican nation girding half the globe with
its flag extending its commerce to the
uttermost ends of the earth and taking
it's place as a world power among the
great nations-"a power for good, for
peace and for righteousness"
But the climax was reached when he
lifted up his voice and declared that our
dead were buried in Luzon and that On
its soil no foreign flag would ever salute
the dawn. In his splendid pcroration he
declared that the republican party. en-
dowed for forty years with every hing en-
nobling and uplifting in our history, was
never so vital, virile and vigorous" as
to-day and that with untarnished record
it would transmit to posterity an undying
love of liberty and of country.
A noteworthy incident of the session was
the remarkable demonstration to Gov.
Taylor of Kentucky. That his party assoc
ciates look up on him as martyr to par
tisan hatred their great ovation to-day
made evident. Although they succeeded
in bringing him to the platform they could
not induce him to make "A speech.

Several notifications of this resolution

upon all proper and opportune occasions
will advocate the cooperation of the Uni

cial nations of the world to secure the
free coinage of both gold and silver AT a

The question was not settled Mt the early
evening meeting. Pending its discussion
the subcommittee adjourned to await the
action of its rcVsors, to meet again at
midnight
The recess until midnight was taken for
the purpose of permitting lemuel f..
