When Fred. Douglass bad concluded bis
speech en Tnea lay t Item xm Mr. Feraker
arose In his aeat and was cheered. Be
asked that tbe committees en rules, resolu
tions, permanent organization and order et
business ss constituted by tbe different
states be read. Tbe secretary proceeded te
read tbe names et tbe committee en perma
nent organization. When tbe Virginia
member'a name was reaebed it was stated
that two names had been sent up by con
testing delegations from tbst state, Tbe
ebalr said that be would submit tbe Vir
ginia question te tbe convention wben tbe
lull Hat of committees had been read.
When the reading of tbe Hat of committees
bad bsen completed tbe chairman stated
that the question before tbe convention
was as te which of tbn contesting delega
tions from the state et Virginia should be
permitted te name tbe members of tbe
various commltteop.
Tbe national committee, be said, had
placed upon tbe rolls of delegates as prima
facte entitled te rests tbe delegation at
large headed by William Mshenr. Ap
plause There worn also four district Uelo Uele Uelo
gstes from Virginia whose seats were net
contested. Unless tbe convention should
otherwise detnrmlne the ebslr would held
tbst for the purpose of participating In the
temporary erganlzitlim the lour delegates
at large, at tbe head of which was William
Mahone, togetber with the four whose teats
were uncontested, would have the right te
name tbe committee membership.
Jehn S. Wise (Vs.) rose, and in response
te cries Irem tbe lloer and naileries, took a
stand en the platform. He was here, be
ssld, claiming te be tbe chairman of tbe
lawful Virginia dolrgstlen. Tie s ate was
entitled under tbe eall te bave twenty four
delegate?, and out of ihnee twenty-four
twenty were contented. Tbe delegates-at-large,
headed by Mahone, bad been held te
have a prlica facte title and had been placed
en tbe rolls, together wltb tbe four district
delegates whose seats were net contested.
These eight but ene-tblrd of Virginia's
representation led by William Mahene.
whose trill In wltb the rights and Kepubll
canlsm In Virginia was tbe issue theso
eight bad associated themselves together
and placed William Mahene en tbe com
mittee en credentials te pass upon his own
oase. That matter bad been going en in
Virginia for some years. The decision wss
always in favor el tbe plaintiff. William
Mshone'sname was Bent up by William
Msbene te William Mahene te decide
whether William Msbene was a dele
gate or net. Laughter. 1 He bad learned
In his batiks in Virginia that a
free ballet and a fair count was
tbe dearest been of national Republicanism.
ApplauBO He bad learned that no man
eagUt te be permitted te be Judge and
suitor both, and he hoped that tbe declslun
of the chair, putting Msbene upon tbe com
mittee ou credentials, would be overruled.
Itwenld be manliestly unfair that Mahone
should go en that committee snd pass upon
his own case. It might be that wlth'n
twenty-four hours tbe eight men who
seleoted him might be leaving tbe ball with
their hats under their arms with the deci
sion of the convention against tbem. Ap
plause Until It had been settled neither
side should be judge and jury In his own
case. He waa willing te trust the fairness
aud honesty or tbe Republican party from
the otber states et tbe Union outside of
Irglnls, but he did net want William
Mahene te remain en the committee en
credentials and vet? en his own enss and
prejudice that of tbe ppe-iVer, and tborefere
be appealed irem the decision of tlie ebalr
te tbe convention.
The ehalr said that he did net desire te
be understood In his decision te prevent
any gentleman making any motion looking
te the settlement et this dispute and tbe
chair would gladly entertain any motion te
that end.
Senater Ueir, Mass., said that the een
v ntien evidently desired te hear Mr. Ma
hone, Va, buthedoslred te Interpose two
suggestions befere the matter proeoeded
.funber.Flrst.that the credentials committee
Sntrst mnln un the roll of tbe convention.
and tbe discussion should be bad there first;
and, second, that by all parliamentary
law and all Justice no man can vote
In the committee upon bis own case,
and, therefore, the objection of Mr.
Wise appeared te be without reason. All
had gteat repect for one who comes te
tbem from Virginia bearing tbe name of
Jehn 8. Wiee, and they were also glad te
honor the gallant Beldier who first broke
the face of the solid Seuth. Between these
two, who unhappily differ, this convention
would, he had no doubt, make a just de
cision ; but he appealed totbe gentleman
who proposed te plunge the convention
into a controversy at this inoppertuno mo
ment te allow the matter te take its regular
course.
When Senater Hear had concluded Mr.
Mahene mounted tbe platform and was
received witb n storm of applause. Gen.
Mahone said he oenfessod that ltwia with
no ordinary rrgret that be found that It was
necessary for tula convention te be asked te
consider the troubles of tbe party In Vir
ginia. He wanted te say, in respeet te
what bad been said te prejudice bis attitude
befere the convention, aud tbe regular or er or
ganlzdien of tbe party in Virginia, which
be represented, bad made that state doubt
ful and Increased tbe Republican vote
80 per cent. He represented net only
tbe regular organization, but 00 per
eent, et the Republican inetssi in
Virginia. These vhi are opposing
him here bave done nothing for the party
except te engage it In strife and contention.
He would be prepared te show that tbe
men who were opposing blm bad no stand
ing In tbe party. Tbe contesting delegates
at large were cbonen by a belting conven
tion consisting el 81 members from nearly 700
memborsef the regular convention. Tbe
contests of tbe distrlet delegates were upon
equally ridiculous ground, in one case
the convention which seceded was called
by threemen, who constituted tbe conven
tion. One of tbem took the chair, another
waa made secretary and the third held tbe
fleer.
Mr. Wise, who was en the plitferm, here
caused a laugh by exclaiming : "Ye?, and
you took tbe result"
General Mahene proceeded te give a
sketch of tbe troubles or the party In Vir
glnls, and was proceeding with an appeal
that tbe convention should stand by tbe
regular parly men in his state when Mr.
Wise broke in energetically with tbe de
claration : " I charge you with frauds by
whleh 1 was cheated out of my contest,"
"Then," retorted Mr. Msbone, "your
charge is false as you are foul."
"1 will put the stamp where it belongs!"
fired back Wise.
Knth Dentiemen were becemlnc excited,
and Mr. Spauldlng (Mich.) took tbem both
from the stand by ruing te a question el
order. He believed that tbe decision et tbe
cbalr admitting Mahone as a member et
tbe committee en credentials was correct,
and be called attention te tbe fact that no
appeal had been taken from tbe decision
by a regularly constituted delegate. Tbe
whole discussion was, thoreferu out et

MrTButterwertb, O., said tha' tbe dispute

Convention Hai.i, Chicago, June 20.
11 a. m. The weather and the political pet
are In aoeord this morning. Beth are bell-
r Ing. Tbe grateful breese that wafted Its way
yesterday across the lake haa struck a snsg
en the Michigan shore and Ita place was
filled with a Stirling blast that for aught
ean be told may have strayed away from
the Sahara desert Het as It Is, however,
tbe 'political legions de net propose
te allow their enthusiasm te be scorched.
They are mere active than ever this morn
ing and are making even mere noise than
nausl. Frem G o'clock tbls morning the
Interior of the prlnelpal hotels, te say neth
ing of the exteriors, for blocks around have
been one solid and ever moving mass of
people. A tbensand Rusk cohorts came
down from Wisconsin before the managers
of tbe governor's boom were out el bed.
They took possession of the headquarters,
committee room and tbe adjacent corridors
and proceeded te give themselves up te a
general hurrah. Senater Spooner, Tayler,
Kublee and ethers el tbe leading Republi
can lights of the Badger state looked down
.upon the scene from an upper balcony and
ome te tbe conclusion that It would
be wise te leave the newcomers In
full possession until their enthusiasm hid
exhausted ltself. The Alger adherenU re
ceived an addition tbls morning te the ex
tent or several hundred persons, and there
were reinforcements In tbe Sherman, Har
rison and Allisen camps. All of them were
loud-lunged and hesrty, and their appear
and was mere than welcome te the pa
triots that have been bearing the heat and
burden of the past few days. According te
one impartial calculation a quarter of a
million of strangers are in tbe oily,
and fully 200,000 of these are here
te plsy the parts or amateur poli
ticians. They enact their roles by
shouting for a favorite seu en an average
every five minutes of tbe day. Twe
hundred thousand sheuters an average of
thirty-three tbensand te eaeh of the six
candidates, tbe entire army concentrated
within a radius of a square mile, makes an
equal oel lectien for the study el mankind.
That was the speetaele presented last night
and will be the same te-night when the fire
Is stirred and the bubbles begin te appear
again en tbe surface of the cauldron. It la
a welcome relief te leave the torrid tempera
ture en the outside te pass under tbe huge
stone archway and thread the labyrinth of
passages that lead Inte the auditorium halL
This Is Just cool enough for comfort
A constant llew of fresh air passing In
both ways from the basement ever tens of

It Is quite a rerrlgerater, but It Is near
te a place of Its kind can be In Chicago.
And se as the doers are epened and the
throng et people that haa for hours been
patiently walling en the eutBlde begins
te pour in, tbe expression en tbelr
faces is one of glad surprise and
Joyful realbatlen that It la net going te be

The women are among the earliest en tbe
scene and very seen the stage and stage
boxes are filled wltb tbem. Very agreeable
te the eye is this aggregation of summer

elaborate decorations below and above.

manent ebairman stepped forward. He
spoke clearly and distinctly and wltb con
siderable earnestness of msnner as fol fel
lows :
OIIA1IIMAN KS1EES SPEEOU,
Gentlemen op the Convention. I
thank yen In the name or tbe statea and
territories et the Pacific coast, as well as
Irem my own heart, for the distinguished
honor that you have seen fit te confer upon
me. I appreciate te the fullest extent tbe
grave responsibilities devolving upon me,
and this being a Republlean convention I
shall ask In all things its charitable judg
ment and its candid and earnest support.
Gentlemen of tbe convention, following
se Illustrious a gentleman as your tempo
rary chairman 1 shall net attempt
te detain you by any lengthened speech
and only want te lay te you that we live se
far from the centre of the republic, ever en
the Pacific shore, that I can't even gueas
who your nominee is going te be.
(Laughter.) Or ceurse you all knew.
( Laughter. ) I say further te you,
my friends and gentlemen of the
convention, that while I am net able te say
exactly what your platform will be, yet the
people of the country have echoed Its
'sentiment and the rattle of the skirmish
line was beard only two weeks age from
Oregon (great applause.) Ged willing,
next November you will bear from Cleve
land's Appomattox all ever this great re
public (applause. ) My friends and gentle
men of the convention, again thanking
you for tbe very high honor you have con
ferred upon me and Impressing you, 1
hope and pray with tbe belief that our
duties are of tbe greatest and meat solemn
character, and trusting from tbe depth of
my soul that every act may be done te pro
mote the best Interests of our common
oenntry and te adyance tbe great Republl
can party. I will call for tbe next order of
business. (Applause.)
Tbe first npplaase was brought out by
Mr. Estee's relerence te Oregon and it
was mingled with shouts of " Uurrab."
Three for Oregon were called from tbe gal
lery and heartily given. Only two minutes
were oejupled with the speech te tbe ob
vious surprlHe of the convention which bsd
expected a speecli upon the lssnes of the
hour. It was known moreover tbst a
carol ul speech bad lieen prepared and
It Is understood that it is new a dead
less te many newspapers which have
It In type. Tbe reason for, Mr. Kslee's
cbsngeef pregramma cannot be divined.
At tbe conclusion of Mr. Kstee's little ad
dress Mayer Reche, of Chicago, who wss the
first delegate te gain recognition, climbed
upon the platform with a silver gavel in his
bsnd and in an able speech presented it in
behalt or tbe city te the chair, it was,
he said, net silver alone, but of geld, em em
blematle of tbe " bl-metallle basis of sound
national ourreney." The appreciation that
greeted tbe gilt was expressed by pro
longed cheers, and. they were renewed
when Delegate Charles A. Werk, of Rock Reck
ford, ill., took bis place and presented a
gavel made from a desk In a tannery In
Galena and which " once belonged te that
superb, msgnlfieent, silent soldier, Gen.
Grant" (Leng continued applause.)
"Yesterday," ssld tbe speaker, "the
Michigan delegation presented yen wltb a
gavel wltb which te pound the Democracy
te death. We new give you a gavel with
which you can tan their hides."
Continuous cneera ana laughter greeied
tbls sally, and the chairman In a few well
spoken words tbsnked tbe delegations for
tbelr gifts. Tbls done be laid aside tbe
Michigan and silver gavels and proceeded
te use that associated wltb momerles et Ga
lena.
OllbEIt OF BUSINESS.
Congressman Bayne, of Pittsburg, sub.
milted tbe report et tbe oemmlttee en rnles
after a delegate, who claimed that the ban
ners designating tbe location of tbe delega
tions were obstructing the line of vision,
had succeeded in getting tbem removed by
the sergeant at-arms. The rules provide
for tbe following order of business ; 1st,
Repert of committee en credentials; 2 J,
report of oemmlttee en resolutions; 3d,
calling roll for members of national com.
mlttee t 4th, placing In nomination caadl-
dates for president; Gib, balloting; Mb,
nominations for vice president ; 7th, ballot ballet
lag. After presenting tbe report Mr. Bayne
remarked that tha most essential diner.
enesa between tha present rnlaa aad these
adopted at previous . oenTsntlona waa
tha proposed formation of an executive
committee et nine te ha aUeted. by
tha national committee clothed with power
te conduct the affaire el tha party.
Tha adoption of tha report waa
moved when Senater Hear asked for tha
reading of the rule relating te alternates.
It was looked for, bat much te tha amuse
ment of tha convention, tha ebalr an
nonneed that tha rnlaa were ea their way
te the printers. A messenger was sent for
the document, but meanwhile Mr. Hear
had repeated tha rule from memory and
without any explanation moved that It be
recommitted te the commlttee en amend
menu.
Mr. Balterwerth moved te amend the re
port se as te provide that IS minutes only
be allowed for nominating speeches, allow
ing only 10 minutes for seconding speeches.
Mr. Bayne made an appeal te Mr. Butter
worth te withdraw hla motion placing a
limit en the length of speeches, but Mr.
Bntterwerth evoked a ripple of laughter by
tha remark that he made It out of sympathy
for the audlenee.
Mr. Bayne continued and spoke se long
that " time " as called ea him add the
audience Indulged In a geed laugh at hla
expense. He could net nnderatand,be said,
what Senater Hear wanted, as the rnle re
lating te alternates was precisely the same
as had prevailed In former years. Senater
Hear then replied In explanation : " The
rnle provides for but one alternate for each
delegate. If that alternate la absent no
ether alternate can take the place of the
absent delegste. I want It amended
se that any one et tbe alternates from a dis
trict can aerve In tbp place of an absent
delegate from that d Is trio'."
TITB REPORT UNANIMOUSLY ADOPTED.
Mr. Butterwerth'a resolution te limit the
speeches was lest en a vlve voce vete by a
large majority, and then Senater Hear and
Congressman Boutelle, of Maine, became
Involved In a brief controversy In relation
te tbe senator's position en tbe altornate
question. Mr. Reet, of Arkansas, submit
ted another technical amendment te the
rule while the audlenee began te manifest
signs or displeasure,
Cbanncey I. Filley, or Missouri, Joined
In the discussion and Mr. Talt, of Seuth
Carolina, moved another teohnleal amend
ment Mr. Jehnsen, of New Yerk, and
ethers followed Talt and sent up tech
nical resolutions en the subject wben
Senater Hear drew up a resolu
tion that was approved by Chairman
Bayne of tbe committee and at ence sub
mitted it te the convention, it read as
fellows : " Alternate delegates for eaeh
delegation at large and alternate delegates
for each distrlet delegation te consist et the
same number aa their principals te act In
oaseet absence of the delegates shall be
elected."
Mr.-Warner, et Alabama, discussed this
preposition amid cries of " question." Mr.
Uaymend. et California, held that It
would be a serious matter te try and
amend rules In open convention and moved
tbat tbe question be recommitted te
the chairman of the commlttee en rules
wltb Instructions te report the amendment
In proper language. The chairman ruled
this suggestion as ent of order, and Mr.
Jehnsen, of New Yerk, agsln asked te
have the rule sent back te the oemmlttee
for reconsideration.
Mr. Bayne Insisted that there was noth
ing te reconsider, and ssld It was a hard
thing te get the oemmlttoe en rules together
sgain. At the same tlme both the rule and
the amendment he oentended meant and
practically said the same thing, it was a
case et "mueh ado about nothing."
Mr. Hnsted, of New Verk, ssld that all
the rules bad been carefully considered
and urged the convention te vote
down all the amendments and adept
tbe report as presented. The cries
of " question " were se persistent tbst
the chstrman ejaculated," Ob I we're try
ing te get It right. Let ua bave a llttle
liberty about It"
Mr. Beutelle made another effort te get
unanimous consent te have the rule recem-
Lmltted, nut no failed, and amid aeme
confusion Senater Hear's amendment waa
yeted down by a Urge majority and the re
port after an hour had been consumed in
discussion was unsnimeusly adopted with
considerable cheering and laughter. Mr.
Wharten, et Alabama, oemplalnod tbat his
delegation couldn't hear what was going
en, but the ehalr oeuld net help blm.
Ne respense waa made. The repert
et tbe commlttee en credentials was
called for and Mr. Hear moved a recess
nntll 8 p. m. This did net please the
occupants of the balconies and tbe
resolution was temporarily withdrawn te
allow Mr. Uusted te present a resolu
tion authorizing tbe aub-oemmlttoe
of the national oemmlttoo te supply
tbe 200 tickets which tbe conven
tion ordered yesterdsy tsheuld be
distributed among tbe old soldlers and
sailors. The resolution wss adopted.
Mr. Hear then renewed his motion
te take a recess until 8 p. m. which
prevailed and at 2:15 the convention dis
solved until evening when the committee
en credentials are expected te report
Gnauce of Alternate.
Congressman Blngbsm, el Pennsylvania,
