OPENS WITH ROW
New Jersey Democratic COnven-
tion Adjourns to Cool OFF.

Trenton, N. J., Oct. AT the hour of
assembling of the New Jersey Demo-
cratic convention it remained a matter
of doubt as to whether the control of
the convention would be with the ele-
ment which favors the nomination of
Mayor James M. Seymour, of Newark,
for governor, or with ex-senator Smith.
For one hour before the convention
was called to order the different county
delegations were holding caucuses.
State Chairman Gourley called the
convention to order and named ex-
Judge Woodruff, of Mercer, as tempo
rary chairman. At the close of Judge
Woodruff's speech the band played one
verse of Nearer, My God to Thee and
the vast assemblage arose and sang the
words of the hymn.
The chairman called for the represent
tatives of the counties on the different
committees. There was no interruption
until Essex was reached. Elvin W..
Crane, an anu-Seymourite, to whom
County Chairman Nugent had given
credentials, arose to present the names
for Essex's representation on the com
mittees.
Joseph r. Buchanan. Seymour dele
gate. jumped to his feet to present the
names selected by the Seymour men, Inn
mediately the convention was in an up
roar. Chairman Woodruff could not OBJ
tain order. and the band was ordered to
play. Quiet was finally restored and then
the chairman ordered Essex passed tenn
porari1y. When the call had been finished
Mr.. Crane was recognized and said that
the anti-Seymour delegates We're pos
sessed of a prima facie right to seats.
You're liar came from the Seymour
delegates. Chairman Woodruff finally de-
cided that the anti-Seymour delegates
were entitled to the positions on the COM
mittees on credentials and permanent or
ganization.
There was another outbreak and the
chairman seemed helpless. State Chair
man Gourley took the. gavel and demand
ed that there should be fair play.
Despite all efforts on the part OF the
ion and suddenly declared recess until
o'clock. with the convention in an up
roar.
