Convention Is Noisy.
When the convention was called 10
order in Hermanus Blocker hall this
afternoon. great confusion resulted
from orders which had been given to
keep the doors closed until the last
moment. The result was that when the
doors were opened at 1:57 o'clock the
crowd burst in with a yell and a rush.
In three minutes the top gallery was
filled with a stamping and shouting
mass of men and boys. In the gal
leries were a number of Hearst ban
nerS and a running fire of shouts and
comments was maintained by the gal
lery crowd.
While the delegates were assembling
a rumor gained circulation that Sena-
tor Hill and the Parker forces had par
TALLY decided that between the ses-
siOns of the convention they would in
form the Tammany people that they
would cOncede the choice of Charles f.
Murphy in the delegation at large to
the national convention.
The crush before the doors and the
hall was tremendous. The aisles were
filled with a scrambling crowd, de-
manding seats at the ratio of about
three persons to one seat. The police
were all but. helpless. Hats were
oh oil 4oI,o 4
and feet trampled in the rush.
Order was finally secured and for
mer State Senator George Raines, of
Monroe county, was introduced as
chairman and delivered a speech.
After the roll call the matter of con-
tested seats was referred to the COM
mittee, and recess was taken until
evening.
When the doors OF the convention
opened at Gas tonight there was a
rush that swept before it ushers, door,
tenders and police. The word had
gone forth that there would be a fight
on the floor of the convention, and
within a few minutes the balcony,
gallery and stage were damned. The
police elected hundreds of persons who
had pre- empted the delegates seats.
1t was not until almost 8 o'clock that
the convention was called to order.
