Arizona republican., 1904-07-08

MT. Bryan occupied twenty minutes and asked to be given ten minutes to conclude after the other side had been heard The cheering which followed his conclusion lasted several minutes and the audience showed a disposition to become unruly.
 THE OTHER SIDE.
 Delegate Menzies, of Indiana, mem- Der of the credentials committee, was then recognized and spoke in opposition to the minority report. MT. Menzies was bitter at the outset. When he crit icized MT. Bryan for his interference in Illinois affairs, there were hoots, misses and applause intermingled. The chair then recognized Frank P. Quinn of Illinois. who had fifteen min utes in which to conclude partisan de- bate for the contestants.
 During an intermissfon created ID MT. Quinn's speech, John P Hopkins | walked up Ito the front of the rostrum, and called up to Quinn: Talk facts, l John.'
 I'll talk them," replied MT. Quinn Resuming, his speech, he briefly mar rated the election or himself as chair man of the convention, and of Hop kins and Calve as delegates t-large and asked for fair treatment for his side. MT. Bryan then rose to conclude, and was again given a warm welcome of cheers. Raising his hand, he made request that the convention should not take his time. Immediately there was silence.
 l When he declared he had been in ! fcommittee at o'clock in the morning and knew more about the details of the case than those who accused him of | ignorance he was cheeTed to the echo. Bryan spoke in his most earnest man. ner. He concluded with an expression Of willingness for unity, adding: But God forgive that it should be under a soiled banner"
 A snappy outburst of applause fol- lowed, but it was not prolonged, the whole body, delegates and spectators, showing plainly weariness of the in tense heat 'an1 long session.
 Chairman Head, of the credentials committee, who followed, accused Mir. | Bryan of contributing little to the har- mony he was advocating. MT. Head admitted that there were things done in Illinois which should not have been l the facts and it's decision was fair and unprejudiced. Before he concluded the conversation had been renewed throughout the hall. The convention was growing restless.
 There were load cries of question and vote as MT. Head retired. "The question" said the chairman, N"is on the substitution of the minority for the majority report"
 FIRST TEST OF STRENGTH. .
 The noes were in a heavy majority, and before the chair announced the re- suit of the vote, MT. Bryan, who was on the platform, demanded a roll call The demand was promptly seconded and the clerk proceeded with the call It was the first test of strength in the convention, and was listened to with interest. Hearsts followers cheered every vote in favor of substitute, and were supported by those parts of gal leries, which had so frequently inter rupted the anti-Hearst speakers.
 The break in the Parker strength came when Kentucky voted solidly foi the substitute. By the time Minneso- ta was reached the vote stood 115 fol the substitute and 247 against. The vote was followed with intense inter est by the delegates. MT. Bryan, who remained on the platform while the roll was called. gave the responses hi: undivided attention but his face be- trayed no sign of feeling.
 Illinois requested to be passed wheI it's name was called.
