COXKLIXG'S DESPERATE BATTLE.
THE CONFLICT PROLONGED.
Grant Men Beaten Every Time.
But Tbey Flinch Net.
WILL 1TIOHT-IT OUT ON THAT LINE.
Tbe nthnslaui " Last Night.
It is notable that tbe great " enthusiasm '
of last night was aroused by Emery
Sterrs, the ex-attorney of the Chicago
whisky ring, who made his eloquent plea
for Grant te a gallery packed with heelers.
It was a competition of lungs between the
Blaine clacqueuis and theG rant rowdies and
each tried te outhewl the ether. Mr.
Conkling was conspicieus in leadiug the
chorus, lirst by waving his handkerchief
and later by standing en Ins chair anil
waving the illuminated little banner placed
te designate the seats of the New Yerk dele
gation. Beb Ingersoll, seizing 2 a lady's
shawl, wared it frantically from the plat
form. In the centre of the stage, just back of
the chair, a fine looking lady with a flag
in one hand and a parasol in the ether
swung them te and fro and repeated time
and again : '" Hurrah for Blaine !" She
appeared te be in company with Governer
Jewell, of Connecticut. Finally she ob
tained two flags, and, with one in each
hand, continued her enthusiastic efforts as
Innrr i till imrnflr laf Af?
When Sterrs get in a shot at Hayes by
saying that "the grand old soldier (Grant)
is carrying forward the banner of the slug
gards," the applause became deafening. It
could net be controlled at all. Men tore
the shields of the states from their fasten
ings, and Tennessee, Kentucky, Flerida,
Virginia, Illinois, Texas, Alabama, New
Yerk and Vermont, were waving their ban
ners under the blazing chandeliers,
The Convention Te-day.
Chicago, June 5, 11:11 a. m. The dele
gates are steadily assembling The galler
ies are filling rapidly, dispite heavy
showers of rain and a sultry atmosphere,
only partially relieved by occasional
thunder. The usual rounds of applause
were given te notable delegates as they
entered the hall. Mr. Garfield especially
was received with much enthusiasm prob
ably because in some contingencies he
is considered a possible winning dark
horse in the presidential race.
The "Eloquent Prayer."
Kcv. Baxter's opening prayer included
the following : "Ged, thou Creater of all
things, and Mighty Sustainer of all Thy
creatures, we begin this day with thank
ful acknowledgment of Thy mercies. We
commend unto Thy favor and grace the
members of this convention. Utile, we
pray Thee, in all their counsels, guide all
their deliberations, and declare through
their vote, for the wisest, for the truest, for
the best man te lead this great
party in the contest which awaits it.
Forbid that the cry of passion should
be louder here than the calm voice
of duty "forbid that prejudice should warp
judgment and compromise principles ; nor
permit personal preferences te impair or
imperil the peace, the harmony, the en
thusiasm, unity of purpose, of fidelity te
trust of this convention.
" Bleeding Kansas."
The chair stated the question te be 011
the report of the committee en credentials,
in the case of Kansas,
Cenger briefly explained and sustained
the majority report.
The convention agreed te limit the de
bate en Kansas te forty minutes.
Plumb (Kan.) replied en behalf the sit
ting members and sustaining the minority
report.
Conkling, coming in while Plumb was
speaking, stepped te salute him and was
greeted with applause from the Grant sym
pathizers. Henk (Twin.) said he did net knew
which side of the pending question he was
en and asked te be allowed te speak two
minutes in order te ascertain his own posi
tion. Laughter.
The chair said t'.ie gcntlenai must be en
one side or the ether te entitle him te oc
cupy any of the time allotted te this de
bate. Renewed laughter. Houk was
allowed te proceed and said he would sus
tain the majority report because there was
no minority report, but he did net want
te be understood thereby as condemning
the action of the congressional district in
Kansas.
Bateman (Ohie) said he did net want te
see the tactics of Tammany hall established
and maintained iu a Republican organiza
tion, te override the true sentiment of the
people themselves, as Tammany in New
Yerk city overrode the solid Republicans
north of Harlem bridge. Therefore he was
for the majority report.
The Vete.
The question was then takcu by a call
of the states and the majority report iu the
Kansas case was sustained : Yeas, 47G,
nays, 184.
New Yerk's Division.
It was noticeable that in the Kansas
case, New Yerk cast only 22 in the affirm
ative. Se the majority report, which admits
four Grant men (with two votes) from
Kansas, was adopted, the committee en
credentials holding they were entitled te
scats under the principle of district 1 epic
sentatien.
The Jewel Consistent.-.
The failure of the New Yerk Grant men
te vote is understood te be caused by a de
sire te have the majority report sustained.
while their votes ler it would be inconsist
ent with their vote in the Illinois cases.
It is manifest that the Grant leaders arc
using every exertion te compel the longest
possible delay. They feel that the longer
they can keep the convention in session the
mere chance they have te tire out the op
position and every possible roll call is de
manded and ether filibustering devices are
resorted te.
West Virginia.
The next case taken up was the contest
in the 3d district, West Virginia. The
committee recommended the retention of
sitting members, who are Blaine men.
Cenger explained and supported the ma
jerity report.
Clayten (Ark.) moved te substitute the
minority repeit for that of the majority.
The minority report recommends the ad
mission of the contestants.
Raum (Ills) insisted that the "West Va.,
case steed precisely en all fours with tbe
Illinois and Kansas cases, and as the con
testants from Illinois and Kansas bad been
admitted, these from West Virginia should
also be.
The Beet en the Other Leg.
Codman (Mass.) urged that the principle
of district representation required the
seating of the ' contestants in the West
Virginia case in accordance with the min
ority report. He could net understand
hew the committee who reported in favor
of the 18 contestants in Illinois could have
voted against the contestants from Kansas.
Hogans ( wTVa.) sustained the majority
report, urging that these contestants failed
te prove before the .committee that tiiey
secured the votes of a majority of the dele
gates te tbe state convention from the con
gressional districts
Cenger sted thatch oemmittee were
nearly equally divided en this case, and
rather intimated that he was net, himself
c?eac in opinion as te the true merits of the
case. "
The contestants are Sherman men.
Alter considerable cress firing between
different delegates, as te facts of purely
local interest, Haymond ( California') said
that whichever way the convention should
vote in this case that vote would sustain
the principle of district representa
tien, iacn side Here claims te be district
representatives and the only contreverted
question is as te whether the sitting or
contesting delegates were legally chosen
representatives of the districts involved.
The vote was then taken by a call of
states, upon substituting the minority ft r
the majority report, at 1:42. The roll call
resulted : Yeas, 417 ; nayp, 330, en the
3d district, W. Va. Se the motion te sub
stitute the minority report was agreed te.
and the convention voted ri"ri voce te scat
the contestants.
The Grant, Shermau and Edmunds men
appeared te combine 011 this affirmative
vote.
The next case of contest considered was
that of Utah, and the donate upon it was
ordered te be limited te thirty minutes.
Utah is new being considered. The plat
form committees reports that the report en
rules will net occupy much time in their
consideration, and after adieurnmeut is
had for dinner, there is a possibility of
taking a ballet this evening.
The Significance of It.
The 330 votes for the negation of the
West Virginia case are regarded by many
as indicating that Blaine's strength iu the
convention is at least as great.
The field Stronger than Blaine.
Special te the Istelliekiickr.
Chicago, June 5 2 p. m .
The convention has just voted 417 te 330
te unseat contested Blaine delegates for
Sherman men in West Virginia. It is the
first test of Blaine's strength against the
field Grant and Sherman united against
Blaine. 3IcCi.cuk.
The Utali Cute.
The minority report returns the sitting
delegates who the majority of committee
say were appointed according te the almost
universal usage in Utah by Central Re
publican committee while the contestants
were chosen by an unauthorized anil irreg
ular body.
Haywood (California) sustained the ma
jority report antl stated that the central
committee met together without any au
thority and elected the two contestants.
The committee en crednntials was almjst
unanimous in favor of tits sitting dele
gates. Cedmau (Mass.) favored the contest
ants. Anether Scorn AbaliiKt Blaine.
The minority report in favor of admit
ting the contestants form Utah in place of
the sitting members has been adopted at
2:35 p. m. .
Further Businesx.
The report of the committee 011 rules and
order of business was taken up. The rules
of the Heuse of Reprcsantatire were recom
mended. The report also recommends
that when the vote of a state is cast for a
candidate it cannot be changed except in
case of numerical error, ten minutes te be
allowed for the presentation of each candi
date for president.
The Ballet.
At 3 o'clock the convention proccetle 1
te discuss. General Sharpe's motion
te hear nominations and te ballet for pres
ident. Sharpe's motion was rejected.
.- CONVENTION NOTES.
Episodes of the Struggle.
Troops of delegates could be found in
and around the Palmer Heuse all day ready
te sell season tickets of admission, and they
found a lively market at prices ranging
from S10 te $20.
Old Madisen Wells is there. "Whom
are you for ?" was asked of him, " Grant,
Blaine or Shermau '" Wells winked and
said : "Oh, I'm for all of 'em."
Bill Chandler, " the political fa nip,"
who eut-generaled Cameren, is a slight,
boyish figure, in 110 particular noticeable,
except for an apparent' insignificance. He
has thin, gray hair ; a thin, gray beard ;
a thin, fiat chest ; thin legs and thin arms.
His head is small, his eyes arc small, and
his nose is small. Ne woman would ever
fall iu love with him at first sight.
There has been great complaint about
the distribution of admission tickets, and
Roe,t of the local committee, had te be
let out a second-story back window of tin:
Palmer house with a ladder, te protect him
from violence for his alleged partiality ill
their distribution.
Twenty-five tickets reserved for Mr.
Hear were stolen from him, and it is rum
ored that some of the colored membeis of
the convention have been selling them.
Queen Victeria's son, Leepold, who is
looking at the convention, has a head
small and shelving, and well covered with
hair of a brownish tint that stretches from
a little pimple near his car down his slen
der neck. He has the Victorian eye and
the lip of a Guelph. Hisuese indicates cu
riosity, being long and prominent, with
a tendency te point heavenward that is
net entirely pleasant. Leepold's as yet
undeveloped mustache does net conceal
the fact that his mother never taught him
te keep his mouth shut. On the contrary,
he sat with one thin leg thrown ever the
ether long one, his upper teeth showing
like squirrel's and his long bauds being
knuckly and red as a boiled lobster.
Whenever the convention gets dull the
delegates rush out te a refreshment stand
at'the deer, and every mother's son comes
in with a pic. A hall full of men and the
men full of pic is a pretty
dyspeptic scene, and such a ne
was presented te the guests en the plat
form. There is a smell of sewer gas in the
hall, and quinine pills arc at a premium.
There is nothing te cat and nothing whole
some te drink. The crowd is simply im
mense and crowds stand in all the aisles.
Old Senater Hear's gavel with which he
calls the convention is as big a nuisance as
Jack Fry's cane was at Fulton hall. The
Herald bays : " He raised his arm and
giving a mighty blew, struck the desk
with his gavel and -cnt neuralgic thrills
through every nervous head. There aic
mere deranged medulla oblengatas in the
convention te-day than in the entire coun
try besides. Mr. Hear's gavel is an intol
erable nuisance."
Last night while going up the hotel stairs
Legan carelessly said he would bet a 1000
en Grant. A New Yerk man bounced him
at once. Legan wouldn't wait till the man
get his money ; but he followed Legan,
and made old Jack of Spades take the
water.
