ferenees and present report. Until
this was ready the convention managers
beguiled the time by putting forward
speakers of more or less prominence to
keep the vast audience from becoming
too restless. IL
The first session, beginning at 10
O'Clock this morning, was entirely
fruitless of results and it was not un-
til late in the afternoon, when the seq
ond session had begun, that the plat
form committee was ut last able to re-
port an agreement. Already its main
features, embodying the IL to / princi-
pie, had become known to the dele
gates, and there was little delay In
giving 1t unanimous approval. This
removed the last chance for an open
pture on questions of principle and
the way clear for the supreme
lent of the day-the nomination of the
presidential candidate.
The vast auditorium was filled to itE
utmost capacity when the moment ar
rived for the nomination to be made.
Not only were the usual facilities af.
forded by tickets taxed to the utmost,
| but the doorkeepers were given liberal
instructions, under which the aisles
and areas and all available spaces were
packed to, their fullest limit. When
the call of states began for the purpose
of placing candidates in nomination.
Alabama yielded its place at the head
of the list to Nebraska, and Oldham, O..
that state, made his way TO the plat
form for the initial speech, placing Mr.,
Bryan in nomination for the presi.
dency. The orator was strong voiced
and entertaining, yet to the waiting
delegates and spectators there was but
one point to his speech, and that was
the stirring peroration which closed
with the name of William ]. Bryan.
This was the signal for the demon
tration of the day, and with COM
non purpose, the great conourse joined
in tribute of enthusiastic devotion to
the party leader. All of the intensity
OF former demonstrations and much
more was added to this final tribute to
| the leader.
When the demonstration had spene
itself, the speeches seconding the nomi-
nation of Mr.. Bryan were in order.
Then came the voting. State aftey
state recorded its vote in behalf OF the
Nebraska candidate, giving him the
unanimous vote of all the states and
territories. The convention managers
had already agreed that this was suffi.
cient work for the day, and the vice.
presidential nomination was allowed
to go over until tomorrow.
Next to the demonstration for the
party candidate, the greeting of the
announcement that Imperialism was to
be the paramount issue of this cam.
paign was the most spontaneous and
significant of the day.
Another stirring event of the day
was the appearance of Webster Davis,
sx-assistant secretary OF the interior
under McKinley's administration, in g
speech severely arraigning the Repub'
lican party for its lack of sympathy foI
the Boers and formally announcing hii
allegiance to the Democratic party.

The nomination came as the culmina-
tion Of frenzied demonstration in
honor of the party leader, lasting ~
minutes, and giving utterance to all
che pent-up emotions of the vast null
titude. 1t followed also fierce strug-
gle throughout the last 36 hours con-
cerning the platform declaration on
silver and ON the relative position
which the silver question is to main
tain to the other great tissues OF the day.
1t was late this afternoon when the
