 by R. H. Clarke-A
 Stormy Scene.

Mobile. April 4.-(Special.) )-The mass meeting in German Relief Hall tonight for the purpose of putting out a ticket oi delegates and alternates to the State Democratic Convention, at one time was very stormy and bade fair to result dis. agreeaby.
 Two gentlemen who had been named on ticket announced the past week spoke one being accorded a patient hearing, the other being hootAd and hissed because of his breaking in on the regular parliament tary proceedings, and because of his de nunciation. in manner, of the personnel of the meeting. going so far as to use the word hoodlum. which was the spark to flame already famed into existence.
 Hon. John Craft called the meeting to order and Hon. J N. McAleer was named for temporary chairman. He called Hon. William C. Fitts 10 make an address to the meeting before the regular order Of business was taken up
 MT. Fltts spoke of harmony all along the line, saying another ticket had been launched' but the people had a right. if they desired to name seventeen delegates ana seventeen alternates for whom they could vote If they desired thus to do. He urged concert of action, without feeling.
 When Mir. Fitts had concluded. the chairman's attention was called to the fact mat secretary should be named. J. .. oConnell was named for secretary.
 Hon. George J. Sullivan moved a com mittee or hve be named to select the dele gates and alternates to be voted upon by the meeting. Before the question could De put and after a second had been had to It. R. N Taylor. one of the gen. tieHeh on the other ticket, arose and be- gan criticising the meeting He snolfa for some time before he would give the chair chance to put the question. The motion prevailed and while the chair was attempting to name the committee, Mfr. Taylor again began to talk.
 The chairman urged him to allow him ehance to name the committee but Mr.

Taylor continued, and finally the meeting. weary of the apparent desire of the spoaker to block movements, began to drum the floor and hiss Finally the chairman named on the.committee George J. Sullivan. T. J. Rowell, Stephen, Touart. John Case and Frank Poggi. f't
 Mir. Taylor then spoke for some time declaring that ticket had been resu- larly qualified before the county com mittee, and If another ticket desired to enter the race they could do so, but the one already in the field. He paid tribute to Colonel E. L. Russell. which was vigorously applauded. eL.f
 By the time Mir. Taylor. had concluded the committee returned and George J. Sullivan announced the committee ready to declare the result of its deliberations As he did this Hon. Joel Goldsby jump ca sto- the floor and began to speak. The chairman asked MT. sGeidshy to wait ,un- til the committee on delegates and al- ternates could report. and, the report be acted upon. MT. Goldsby declined to do this; and began a bitter attack, resulting in cat calls and shouts tor Sullivan. Mir. Goldsby seemed indifferent to the desire for hearing from the committee, and continued his efforts to speak. Finally he declared he had hope that this meeting was called by, Democrats, and not by hoodlams. This threw the meet ing into an uproar,. and for a time pam demonium seemed to reign. 5-r-.i -s..
 some there were who grew demonstra- tive in their objection to. the assertion of the speaker, and one of the men start ed for the stage, but was calmed down. | Finally in order to smooth the troubled waters, call went up for Hon C.. Law renee Eavretta, who took the stand, and Mir. Goldsby sat down.
 MT. Lavretta urged harmony in the meeting, declaring he had no hope or de- sire to 60 to the national convention. He said the people of Mobile had given him great honors on several occasions, and his only ambition now was for a bet torment of the streets, sewers and the city generally. He urged that bitterness be left out of the meeting. and he hoped the committee which had not yet been allowed to report had elected a good ticket. For his part he would rather not be a delegate.
 The committee then reported the fol lowing ticket: Delegates-R. H. Clarke, E. E. Bernheimer, D. P. Bestor, A. s. Lyons, D. R. Burgess. c. L. Lavretta, P. J. Lyons, W. c. Fitts. E. B. Kirkbride, c.
