Philadelphia, (Speecial.) -Without
senting vote the Republican Nationa
vention ratified the nominations of William
McKinley, of Ohio, for President, t
Theodore Roosevelt, of New York, for Vice
President of the United States,
The nominating speech for McKinley was
made by Senator Joseph B. 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

All of the orations made were undoubtedly
good, but few of the orators had voices
sufficiently penetrating to reach all the hear-

all, while Governor Mount, of Indiana, be-

There was no wistake in bringing 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

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.”

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
