Reid, 4; Lincoln.l. At the evening session

FROM A STAFF COBRESPONDEIfTJ
Minneapolis, June 10. James G.
Blame as never more honored in his life
than to-day. The peerless Maine statesman
name" It the people, although another
Ml' "-elected bv the convention.
That the Plumed Knight will not lead the
Republican hosts to ictory is not the iault
or 10,003 devoted adherents who accorded
the chief of their choice such a demonstra
tion as is seen but once in an epoch.
For nearly half an hour to-day this
faithful 10,000, knowing that defeat stared
them in the face, but hoping still that a
miracle might turn the tide, testified their
loyalty to the greatest living American in
a manner that might have moved hearts of
stone.
Continuous cheers mingled with the magic
name that had so often proved an inspira
tion. The voices of fair women joined with
those of earnest men. Hats, handker
chiefs, parasols, umbrellas aud flags were
thrown high in the air, as evidence of the
feelings of their owners. Veterans of the
war tossed away their crutches in the ex
citement of the hour.
The Lint Effort to Win Ont
It was a last magnificent effort to win,
well worthy ol the cauBe which called it
forth. But it was in vain. Hundreds of
delegates who had no offices, and hundreds
more who expected them, who had already
refused to listen to dictates of reason as to
the man for the hour, were neither to be
moved bv cheers nor tears.
The almost frantic appeal of the import
ant many had no efiect upon the powerful
lew. Ifanything.it seemed to make them
more determined to perform their allotted
task.
Ol the 52."J votes cast for the successful
candidate for the Republican nomination as
President of the United States, 252, prac
tically half, came from the Democratic
States and Territories of the South, which
are not relied upon to cast a single
electoral vote for the ticket which they had
bo large a part in naming. In these same
States James G. Blaine received but 49
votes. In but one of them Virginia did
he receive majority support, and in many
of them he found not a single adherent
Texas the Stale That Settled It.
More than all that, the votes on the roll
call which decided the result were cast by
Texas, the Banner Democratic common
wealth of the country, with a majority of
100,000 and the chairman of the delega
tion who held it in line and announced
the result is the International Revenue Col
lector for the Lone Star State.
The day was not without its consolation.
Ingcrsoll won lasting fame at Cincinnati
by his speech for the Plumed Knight in
1876, but lie found a peer to-day.
Senator E. O. Wolcott, of Colorado, who
was accorded the honor of placing the name
of Blaine before the convention, responded
with an oratorical effort which alter
nately called forth tremendous bursts
of enthusiasm and started the tears Ircm
the eyes of his auditors. There was not a
man piesent who did not regard it as a
masterpiece of eloquence, delivered in fault
less style.
The noted Depew, relied upon by the
Harrison co-herents to take all before him
with the well-known magic of his tongue,
confessed his inability to approach the
plane of the Rocky Mountain orator.
AH Other i-perchrg Seemed Tame.
In comparison with Wolcott's address all
others seemed tame, though many earnest
and telling appeals were made from the plat
form and received in the most generous man
ner. So strong was the efiect of "Wolcott's
words, that for a brief space of time the de
voted followers of the popular idol thought
they saw the victory which they well knew
had slipped from them again in their grasp.
But inspiring as was the eloquence of the
Western Senator, it did not moveadelegate
who had an office, either in possession or
anticipation.
Wolcott was the first to take the plat
form alter the entire business, of the con
vention had been cleared away. The wild
demonstration which he created had hardly
died away when Colonel Richard Thomp
son, of Indiana, the oldest delegate, pre
sented the name of President Harrison
for renomination. The cheering which fol
lowed was vigorous and long continued,
but it lacked the fiber and spontaneous en
thusiasm which marked the greetine of the
man who was fated to receive the approval
of the people and the disapproval of the
convention.
The Mnt Dramatic Incident.
Then came the most dramatic incident of
the day, and, as those who witnessed it be
lieve, the most dramatic incident of any
day. William Henry Eustis, Minnesota's
favorite orator, mounted the platform
to second the nomination of Blaine.
The vast assemblage was now at an in
tense pitch of excitement Eustis lacked
the magnificent voice and manner of Wol
cott and the polished periods of Depew.
But he had a style of oratory that
was even more irresistible. After
having almost exhausted himself
in a glowing picture of the
candidate of his choice, he turned to the
Illinois delegation, directly in front, and in
a voice trembling with emotion besoughl
them to throw aside all others for the man
whom the people had chosen. The immense
gathering listened breathlessly to every
low-uttered word, and when the speaker
finally ceased, because overcome by his own
feelings, the long pent-up torrent burst
forth. The refrain of "Blaine! Blaine!
James G. Blaine!" leaped from thousands of
throats. After ten minutes the band at
tempted to play. Its strains were lost in
the tumult of voices. Nine-tenths of the
gathering joined in the tremendous ovation.
All Previous Demonstrations Eclipsed.
Tom Reed, of Maine, surrounded by a
group of ladies in the rear of the stage,
waved nags and handkerchiefs and in
cited the multitude to renewed efforts
to eclipse any demonstration ever
recorded. For over 25 minutes the picture
was one that absolutely cannot be described
by words. Those who witnessed it will
never forget it
When Depew seconded the nomination
of Harrison, a little later, he appeared to
realize that he was at a disadvantage, and
his tones at times were al
most apologetic. He presented .the
claims of the President in a most forceful
manner, though, and the lollou ers of the
THE NOMINEES, THE PARTY LEADERS AND THE SCENE AT THE END
Indiana candidate rallied around him with
a round of applause that would have been
deemed remarkable if it had not been so
far outrivaled.
When.Depew asked, "Who will be given
credit for the great acts of the administra
tion?" intending to bestow praise upon
Harrison, a mighty shout of "Blaine"
echoed from floor togallery, and the speaker
was obliged to wait several minutes before
the tumult ended.
Ovation, for the Tiro Candidates.
As Depew concluded, amid excitement, a
picture of the President was carried upon
the platform and his friends surpassed
their former efforts, but only for a
moment did they have the field
to themselves. A Blaine banner, bearing
his portrait, was dragged from the rear of
the hall, and in an instaut the cheers for the
Maine statesman were rising about the
heads of his opponents.
This'remarkable contest of enthusiasm
continued lor perhaps 20 minutes,
with the entire convention upon
its feet, the many spectators of the
gentler sex being, if possible, even
more demonstrative than the dense masses
of earnest men.
When order was at last restored other
seconding speeches followed. Boyd, a
colored delegate from Tennessee, scored
a hit by saying that if, the en
tire Republican party could be
gathered together to name a candidate only
one would be considered Blaine.
The comie side was furnished by Dele
gate Downey, of Wyomimr, who started his
speech by saying: "I come from a far-away
State, a good many miles 'from here," and
other bulls of a similar nature, until
the patience and even the laughter of the
convention was exhausted.
The Harrison Phalanx Invincible.
Meantime, there had been a deal of
scheming on the floor. Unable to break
the solid Harrison phalanx with the
magic name of Blaine, the anti-administration
leaders decided to also try
that of McKinley on the first ballot, hoping
to be able to swing in for their first love
later. Foraker, and practically the
Ohio delegation, joined in the movement
So did Alger's supporters, in Michigan.
But in the other States none but Blaine sup
porters listened to the suggestion of
harmony and a compromise, and the
scheme, if it was ever possible, came too
late. It took ten votes from Blaine
to one from Harrison. The office
holders who had Tefused to vote for
the author of reciprocity could not be per
suaded to do so for the champion of protec
tion. It is the general feeling to-night that it
would have been better to cast all the votes
for Blaine and gone down with flying colors
as a fitting conclusion to a gallant struggle.
The struggle was never in doubt after the
first States on the roll were silled.
The Battle Settled in a Hurry,
Alabama and Arkansas started, with 15
votes each, for the second term and Georgia
followed close, with a delegation of 2C By
the time the bulwarks of the Michigan,.
Xew York, Ohio and Pennsylvania were
reached the contest was practically
over, though loud cheers greeted the at
tempt to get a stampede to McKinley.
It was fittingly reserved for Texas
to give the finishing Btroke and cast
the votes which made the majority for
the nomination. As soon as this
was done, amid Harrison cheers and
general tumult, Chairman McKinley
surrendered the gavel to Colonel
Elliot F. Shepard, and took the floor
Mngee the President's Leader.
The President has much to be thankful
for to C. L. Magee. He furnished the prac
tical politics lor the administration, while
Chauncey M. Depew kept blundering on
the floor. The New Yorker demonstrated
that he does not know mnch about running
conventions, even if he is an expert rail
roader. Depew did the talking, but C L.
Magee was constautly at his elbow, suggest
ing what moves to mate on the political
chess board.
Senator Quay led the Blaine delegation,
and he fought hard for supremacy. He
occupied a position not far from Chairman
McKinley, and he spent most of the time
in front of the Chairman's desk, where he
watched every point carefully and worried
the opposition with deft motions and at
times perplexed them with his cunning.
It was a game struggle, from start to
finish, and more than once the Harrison
people were badly rattled. C. L. Magee is
the hero of the President's forces, and he
deserves credit for Harrison's success. Mr.
Magee thinks they would have been beaten
had the Harrison caucus not been
held yesterday. It brought their delegates
shoulder to shoulder, and gave them con
fidence in themselves. Mr. Magee had a
hard time convincing many of the Presi
dent's friends that a caucus was their only
salvation. Some were afraid it would re
veal their weakness, and then the Blaine
managers would rush things to victory. The
outcome proved otherwise and now Magee
is a "lug dog" with the administration
backers.
Quay and Son Dick Disc.uted.
When Texas cast the deciding vote for
Harrison, Senator Quay, with his son Dick,
lelt the convention ball in disgust They
were followed by Boutelle, of Maine, who
was in an ugly humor. He was mad at.

Texas, who had beaten Blaine. Quay in
structed General Reeder to cast his vote tor 4

While Quay and Boutelle were going out
somebody moved to make Harrison's nomi
nation unanimous. Boutelle turned to
Quay and said; "Hold on, Quay, and let
us vote against this motion. They have no
right to change the order of business."
"Oh, come on," the Senator replied.
"Let them do as they please. We can't
help ourselves."
With this remark they strode out of the
hall and entered a carriage.

Democratic States should make the nomi
nation. I am not making predictions, but
those who run can read the signs ot the
times. I have gone down with Blaine
many times before, but I never felt prouder
in defeat"
The Move to Break to McKinley.
It was agreed by the Blaine managers
early in the morning that the best move to
make would be to get the Ohio delegation to
vote for McKinley and thus cut down Har
rison's strength and prevent a nomination.
Foraker had not much trouble to deliver the
goods, and even Cox, of Cincinnati, cast
his ballot for the Major. The Governor
protested against this action, and demanded
a poll of the delegation. It resulted in 45
votes for McKinley and 1 for Harrison.
The vo.te for Harrison was delivered by Bob
Nevin,' of Dayton, as alternate for McKin
ley, and he exDlained to the delegation that
the Major had instrncted him to' vote that
way?
Shortly before the ballot was taken the
Pennsylvania delegation retired for a con
ference. Harry Oliver, wio finally landed
in the Blame ranks, claims the delegation
knew nothing ot the intentions of the Ohio
people, and here is where .the mistake was
made. Senator Quay did not attend the
caucus and a poll of the delegation resulted
in 17 votes for Harrison and 42 for Blaine.
Hamilton Disston, who at one time decided
not to attend the convention, was present
and voted for Harrison. He had tried to
induce McKinley to enter the list, but when
he had an opportunity to support the Gov
ernor he did not do it
Action of the Keystone State.
When the Pennsylvania delegation re
turned to Its seats, the State was called.
Then it was hastily decided by the majority
to vote for McKinley. W. J. Scott, a
Blaine man, refused to cast his ballot
for Governor McKinley unless the Harrison
men did likewise. He oflered to dropt
the Plumed Knight for McKinley if one of
the President's delegates would'also. He
appealed to the Harrison men in vain, and
then he said he would go down with the
Maine man, with colors flying.
Senator Quay thought it would have more
effect on the convention to call the roll, and
demanded that the delegation be polled.
Ohio and Oregon had just flopped to Mc
Kinley, and the critical time for
Harrison had come. Disston was
the first Pennsylvanian called,
and he voted for Harrison. So did W. L.
Elkins, who came next The President's
delegates yelled with delight, and then it
commenced to be apparent that the jig
was up.
The result of the vote was Harrison 19,
Blaine 3 and McKinley 42. Two of the
Blaine men were W. J. Scott, of Belbend,
and Augustus M. High, of Reading. The
Harrison voters were Hamilton Disston,
W. L. Elkins, G. S. Graham,

Kinley, to prevent a nomination on the
first ballot
Pennsylvania True to B'atne.
Nobody must think for a .moment that
the Pennsylvania delegates deserted Blaine.
Their object was to gain time by taking des
perate chances. That they lost is because
Harrison had the convention, and the result
could not have been changed anyhow. Quay
and the other Blaine men afterwards re
gretted that they did not stick to him and
go down in the same ship with their chief.
The result would look better in years to
come.
The evening session witnessed a very brief
contest between Reid and Reed. It bad
been decided by the successful Harrison
leaders to displace Morton and nominate
Whitelaw Reid, of New York, for Vice
President. Tennessee and New York,
though, presented the name of Thomas B.
Reed, of Maine, as their ideal candidate.
The home delegation announced it as their
belief that the ex-Speaker would not ac
cept any such nomination at the hands of
this convention. The name of Reed was
then withdrawn, and Reid named, with
only two dissenting votes.

THOU A STAJT COBBESrOOTZST.J
3Iinneapoli3, June 10. "How will the
Republican party support the ticket?" is
the question The Dispatch correspondent
has been to-night asking the leaders most
conspicuous in the fight for and against the
renomination of Harrison.
C. L. Magee says that the result of the
convention will have no effect on the poli
tics of Pennsylvania. Senator Quay has
lost none of his influence in the State, and
it is the general opinion of Pennsylvanians
here that the Senatorial struggle has not
been changed. E. N. Willard, of Scranton,
who is a strong Harrison man, said Quay
would have a walkover for re-election. He
said he voted for Harrison because he
thought the President was the best man for
the place.
Senator Qnay accepts the situation, and
says he will work for the success of the
party. The Senator did not attend the
evening session. He remarked that he had
nothing to say about the work of the con
vention. He wants time to think it over.
Senator Piatt was tired out, and went to
Senator Washburn's to rest Warner Mil
ler took the first train home. J. Sloat
Fassett, in speaking for hem, said that
New York would be loyal to the ticket
Everybody Couldn't Be Pleased.
The fact is, the anti-Harrisou delegates
and leaders are not at all pleased with the
nominations. The Western men are equally
dissatisfied. At heart the Blaine people
feel that defeat is possible in November.
They will make a pretense of hustling in
the campaign, but will not put in their best
efforts. Their enthusiasm is morabund,
though it may resuscitate later, when the
first disappointments of defeat have worn
off.
Probably the most bitter talk comes from''
Colorado's Senator, Wolcott He rayed and
stamped around after the afternoon session
of the convention, and uttered many ex
pressions which he would hardly care to see
in print Later this evening he was in a
calmer frame of mind, and merely snmgged
his shoulders when his opinion on the ques
tion of the hour was requested.
Senator Teller, however, expressed his
views in a positive manner. He said: ''I
do not know whether this ticket can carry
Colorado or not It certainly will not pull
within thousands of votes of the number
that would have been given freely to
Blaine. I understand that the Harrison
leaders have decided to turn down Morton
and name Whitelaw Reid for the second
place. They ought to put up Elliott F.
Shepard and be done with it. They would
then have a crank ticket at both ends. If
the States that have to elect Harrison had
been consulted Blaine would have beaten
him."
DeTnune Speaks for the Slope.
M. H. DeYoung, the California Blaine
leader, was in a more pacific mood. He
said: "I am for the party's nominee, and
believe he will be elected. Blaine put both
himself and his friends in a bad position
and we were unable to overcome the handi
cap. The time for fighting on these lines
has passed by, and we must now present a
solid front to the common foe. I am hope
ful of the result in November on the far
western slope."
George A. Knight, the California actor
who attacked the officeholders in a radical
speech on the floor last night, does not
agree with Mr. DeYoung. He packed his
valise and left town before the evening ses
sion of the convention, vowing that the
Pacific coast wonld never support such a
candidate nominated by such methods. His
colleagues think that Mr. Knight will cool
off somewhat before he reaches San Fran
cisco. Ex-Senator Warner Miller, of New York,
was a hard man to find this evening, and
when he was at last discovered he declined
to say anything further than that the Re
publicans usually supported the party
ticket, no matter who had been their choice
before the nomination was made.
Putt Hasn't Much to fay.
T. C. Piatt was almost equally reticent
He said that when the majority of the party
representatives, no matter under what mis
apprehension, had spoken, there wa3 not
much to do butobcy. He declined to ad
vance any opinion as to the outcome in
November in New York, but said that the
issues of '88 would be fought over again.
Chairman Clarkson said: ''We will have
a hard battle in Iowa this fall, bnt we will
work shoulder to shonlder for our princi
ples. The Republicans of the nation will
stand by reciprocity and protection, though
deprived of their choice at the head of the
ticket"
Governor Bulkley, of Connecticut, said:
"The doubtful State ot Connecticut will do
its best, though we largely supported
Blaine. I am very hopeful of success, not
only in Connecticut, but throughout the
United States."
The nomination of Reid for Vice Presi
dent, while made with comparatively little
opposition, does not seem to have made
much impression upon the opponents of
Harrison. They say that the contest was
made upon the issue indorsing the adminis
tration, and that one end of it was turned
down by the managers of Harrison. There
is little indication, though, of any kicking
that will be openly carried to the polls.
Consul New In Fine Spirits.
John C New, who has figured as largely
as anybody in Harrisonian councils, was in
fine spirits. He said that the President had
given the country a splendid, safe, honest
and courageous administration: he had the
people with him and he would be elected.
Mr. New said they had made a hard fight,
and had to meet men who were skillful op.
