Foraker, of Ohio. Seconding speeches were made by Governor Roosevelt: Senator John M., Thur- n, of Nebraska; John W, Yerkes, of Ken- tucky: Governor Kuight, of California, and Governor James W. Moant, of Indiana, Roosevelt was put in nomination for Viee- President by Col. Lafayette Young, of Iowa, The nomination was seconded by Butler Murray, of Massachusetts; Gen. James M, Ashton, of the State of! Washington, and Benator Chauncey M. Depew, of New York, At no time was there any lack of enthusi- asm, From the very moment the chairman announced that the time had arrived to nominate a President the United States until the convention adjonrn«d the pre ings were chock full of excliement and ion. terest, All of the orations made were undoubtedly good, but few of the orators had voices sufficiently penetrating to reach all the hear- ers, Even Senator Foraker falled to satisfy all, while Governor Mount, of Indiana, be- cause of his peculiar delivery, scored a dis- tinct failure, } and « sto of coed. | the delegates wotered ina solid stream and | spread out over the seats reserved for them, The crowds were so absorbed picking out the men of national reputation that they forgot 1o cheer, and men like Henry Cabot ! Lodge of Massachusetts, Senator Davis of | Minnesota and Senator Foraker of Ohblo did not get a band as they took thelr places, | Meantime the band was playing popular { airs and the scene was impressive and ani- mated, At noon Senator. Hanna took his scat a { the Chalrman's table, and, although this | was the hour set for calling the Convention, { he waited a few moments conferring with | Becretary Dick, Sena‘or Wolcott and others. Again Mr. Hanna was the centre of at- traction, He lelt the presiding officer's ta- ble, and, stepping to the front of the plat. form, surveyed the sea of and In « clear volee began his speech of welcome, “Iu bidding you welcome," he began, “I niso wish to congratulate you on the mag- nificent representation from the Republican party,” There was a ro Hanna roiled out party.” There was no wistake in bringing the( vention to Philadelphia, Mr. Hanna went on. Here was the of liberty, the birthplace of the Republic. Here a’so bad the Hepubilean party seen its birth, and here, too, was the centre of that great, throbbing aide —the protection of American industry. Another wave of applause swept over the Convention at this mention of the protective principle, and as it subsided Mr. Hanna pro- corded “We on the another great struggle. Already we are beginning to form our battalions, under the leadership of our great statesman General McKinley.” That was the signal, and for the first time the Convention broke forth in a whirlwind of enthusiasm. Men and women Bi their feet, delegates, spectators, stald and distinguished guests, all animat- d by a mon pure honor to the "res Senator Haona looked down isfaction at the tempestuous demonstrate Flags and handkerchiefs waved everywhers in billows of colors, For 10 seconds a minute, the demopstration kept up, then, with a wave of the hand, the chairman bid the lage resume seats and Jet him proceed, ‘1 was about to give the faces, ind of the applause as Mr, words “Republican On cradle are eve of #pran ose {o do in smiling #x and assemb order for PRES.

M., after a session of three hours and 35 minutes Later the Republican National Committee met and re-elected Senator Hanna chair man, here m FIRST DAY. Philadelphia, (Bpeecial.)-—At 12.38 o'clock Tuesday the Republican National Conven- tion of 1900 was called to order, and thus the racking excitement of conference and caucus, of erashing bands and confusion of hotel corridors gave way to the definiteness and form of actual convention proceedings. The sergeants-at-arms and the ushers bad their hands full attending to the crowds, In the seats back of the stage were many distingulshed personages, The leaders were slow in arriving, and it was not until Senator Hanna put in an ap pearance at 11.45 that the enthusiasm of the thousands was uncorked. He got a cheer ag he moved up the centre aisle the full length of the hall to the platform. General Grosvenor, the white. bearded old veteran, was immediately recognized, and he, too, got a cheer, Senator Allison, of Iowa, the famous leader of his party in the Senate, was among bers of the Senate on the stage were Hawley of Connecticut, Burrows of Michigan, Deboe of ; Kentucky, Culiom of Illinois and Shoup of Idaho. Occupying prominent seats upon the plat form were 4 of the 14 men now living who were delegates to the first Convention of the Republican party held in Philadelphia, June 17, 1866. All were members of the regular Ohio delegation. Three of them were prom. inent in the anti-slavery fight that led to the convention held in Pittsburg on February 22, 1856, which was in reality the precursor of the Philadelphia Convention, and these men, therefore, claim to be among those who were chiefly instrumental in forming the Re. publican party. The three men who were are Judge Rush R. Sloane, Bandusky, 0. Gen. R. Brinkerhoff, Mansfleid, 0., and Hon, George RB. Trey, Springfield, 0. Judge W. Hapson, of Akron, O,, was at the Phila. delphia Convention, but not at that in Pitts. burg. Cornelius N.
