A male quartette was an added
feature on the musical programme
of the night session. They sang
their first selection through mega
phones and got a royal reception
from the gallery throngs. A Chi
cago band relieved the cowboy
musicians who had served so loyalty
since the opening of the convention
on Tuesday.
At 7:15 the galleries were COM
pletely filled and the majority of the
delegates were in their seats, but
the officers of the convention were
still waiting for the report of the
committee on resolutions.
James of Kentucky moved that a
committee Of three be appointed a.
gain to wait upon the platform COM
mittee and ascertain when it would
ke ready to report. The motion pre-
vailed and Mr.. James. ] Thomas
Hefiin of Alabama and F. P. Lynch
of Minnesota were named. Mr..
Lynch's appointment was the first
recognition the adherents of Gov
ernor Johnson had received in the
choice of convention committees.
Pending the report of the commit
tee on inquiry. Thomas P. Ball of
Texas was invited to address the
convention. Mr.. Ball called out
cheering when he said it was a great
pleasure to address such a notable
ratification convention" and de-
clared Mr.. Bryan would be the man
because the people of the states wlo
sent their delegates to the conven-
tion wanted him nominated.
Before the convention was called
to order the crowd had assumed
proportions that made it almost
dangerous. A ticket of admission
was no requisite for admission and
it was but short time before all
seats were occupied. In addition, the
aisles in the galleries and many of
those on the convention floor were
jammed so tightly that the people
who occupied them were held
almost lmmovable. The windows in
the hall were packed with spectators
who choked off all circulation of air
and made the atmosphere in the hall

the vast assemblage into wild de-
monstration.

Of 1896 and 1900 bore the battle

fame as untarnished as the crusaders

Immediately a perfect pande-
monium of sound and motion was
unloosened as delegates and specta-
tors rose in masses and joined in
the reverberating chorus of tribute
to the Nebraska candidate. The
standards of the states were taken
from their places and borne through
the hall to the platform, while
banners bearing the portrait of the
commoner were waved aloft and
the multitude joined in long-con-
tinued tribute. At times the inten-
sitv of the demonstration threaten
ed a panic. One woman was borne

Convention Hall, Denver. July,
"a small American flag had been
placed on every delegates chair
prior to the beginning of the even
ing session. This was the unmis-
taxable evidence of the nominating
session of the convention and quick
ened the interest of the spectators,
who early made a rush for the
galleries, filling them to overflow
ing. At 7 o'clock, however, there
were few of the delegates in their
places. They had fingered long at
dinner, the slow declining twilight
Of the Colorado evening proving
deceptive as to the hour.

Boston. March 22.-The physicians in attend
ance on Governor Curtis Guild. jr-, were obliged
TO report tonight that the condition OF their
patient had taken a slightly uufavorable turn
and that he could not be said to be as comfort
able as on yesterday The first bulletin of the
morning said that the Governor had passed
favorable night and had taken liquid nourish-
1nent well. but there was a different tone In the
later bulletins, and the one issued at 40 p m
stated that the Governors condition. on the
whole Is not quite favorable
The APO D. m. bulletin declared the Governors $
condition remained unchanged Again, at i:So
n m DR. WinsIow issued statement that the
Governors condition was about the same as it
was at noon; not quite so favorable as yester-
day
The bulletin issued at 1870 o'clock tonight
bv DR. Winsow said: THE Governors condi-
ton is not quite as good tonight, but there Is
no very marked change He has failed slightly
PRAYERS for the complete recovery Of the Gov
ernor were on the lips of the occupant of prob
ably every pulpit IN the city to-day. In all OF
the congreeations the latest information from
the beside of the chief executive was earnestly
sought and many expressions of deep sympathy
were given.
There were many who called at the residence
to-day and a great many cards with kindly
messages for the Governor and Mrs Guild were
dronned in the little basket which hung by the
door A number of sympathetic kilograms were
also received.
