MCKINLEY AND ROOSEVELT.
Platt and Quay Knock Out Hanna
A Platform Full of Generalities,
Promises, &c, Adopted.

On Tuesday the Republican National Con
vention opened in Philadelphia, Pa. Beyond
the selection of committees and other routine
work nothing Of general importance was done.
| From the first the indications were that there
would ne some difficulty in the selection of Il
candidate for Vice President, and 1t soon be
came evident that while Mr.. Hanna could
have President Mckinley re-nominated, yet
the delegates were going to name the candi-
dale for Vice President, and it was not long
before the hand of Elk Senator Quay, of Penn
syivauia, was found to be At work on the
checker board, aud with the assistance of Sen
ator Plat, who does not want "a bigger
man" in New York Than himself, won, by
pushing Roosevelt to the front. Therefore
Hanna weepeth.
The Convention adopted its platform on
Wednesday.
The selection of Roosevelt became Ger
tainty late Tuesday night, when Senator
Hanna, chairman OF the Republican National
Committee came out definitely in his favor.
There was a grand rush 10 congratulate the
New York Governor. Representative DOLL
yer aud other leading candidates on the ground
decided to quit the race The boom of Secre-
tary Long collapsed with the withdrawal of
HaHua's support
The situation was forced BY a combination
OF Senator Plat, ex-senator Quay aud Ma
tonal Committeeman Henry c. Payne. ot
Wisconsin For this combination Hanna, IN
his fight 10 prevent Roosevelt's nomination,
proved no match.
At the second DAY ) session of the cnuyeu-
ton Quay sprsug the scheme. tie introduced
an amendment to the rules providing that the
representation Of each State IA future national
conventions should consist of four delegates
