ISpIANAPoLIs. Ind, April a,-Deter-
mined struggles characterized the nomina-
ton Of candidates by the Republican State
convention held in this city to-day. Each
candidate was warmly supported by his
friends and when the convention adjourned
late this evening after an all day continuous
session, the utmost good feeling prevailed.
The nominations are regarded as made
up from the very best men who presented
themselves as candidates
The opening OF the convention was de-
layed by a hitch over a final effort on the
part OF Congressman Crumpacker to secure
an Endorsement Of his proposed invesu-
cation OF election frauds in the South.
Late last night. after the platform. as pre-
pared by the sub-committee Of forty repre-
sentatives had been carefully considered
and approved, he proposed an additional
paragraph, indorsing the movement in Con-
gress to Investigate the question Of suffrage
in Southern States, with view OF reducing
the representation in Congress OF such
States as disfranchitcd the negro vote.
The proposed amendment caused pro.
longed discussion and was finally voted
down. Congressman Crumpacker inti-
mated that he might make minority
report 10 the convention.
When the committee quit for the night
II was with the understanding that 1t should
get together at Tomlinson Hall at CLOCK
this morning.
At that hour q proposal was made by
some Of the friends OF Hugh Hanna to
change the money plank. Mr.. Hanna
expressed the hope that the platform would
say something more specific. In a corner
OF the hall. to the right OF the stage, the
committee held q meeting and considered
the suggestion Of Hanna and Crumpacker,
but decided not to make any changes from
the pronouncement, as its several planks
had been agreed upon the night before.
The platform was then presented by
Charles Jewett. former Democratic Speaker
Of the House OF Represent atives, who left
the Democratic party In 1896.
The platform. after dealing with state
issues. says:
