Minneapolis, June lft. A toppling over of Presidents booms had a strange parallel to-day, wit nessed by all the great crowds of spec tators and delegates just as they entered the Convention Hall. The 100-foot-high de sign in barrels that stood near the main entrance was-dasbed Who trcondcd Vie norni- hopelessly. nation of Hamsun. A small tornado, or something very like it, had done the work, and the wreck, as it dangled in mid air, presented an uncanny appearance, which, with the fact that to-day was Friday, led to all sorts of talk about hoodoos and other similar things of ill omen that in weaker moments are the dread ot certain classes of politicians. At 11 a. m., the hour set for assembling, the result of a long night session and anxious caucuses was plainly visible in the haggard faces of the delegates who had put in their appearance. McKinley Wins the First Applause. .McKinley, prompt to the minute in tak ing the chair, was for the third successive day accorded the first round of applause. Notwithstanding the trying responsibilities w Inch he had parsed seemed, in comparison with the majority of thoe before him, relatively fresh and ready to hold the bal ance flnnlv and effectively in the greater battle that promised to characterize the dai's pi oceedinga. Tlio clercrvman selected to deliver the opening prayer, was a Hie-long, staunch Re publican, Hut m person bote a remarkable, lesemblance to a famous Democrat ana pai ticulir friend of Grover Cleveland General Era-g, of iconsm. He was Rev. Wayland llo t, of Minneapolis, whose name lias Ions been probably as familiar to Baptists throughout the conntrj ss that of any other minister in their denominition. As he hesi tited before ho should lift his voice In sup plication, he attracted for the moment as much attention from the judience as leaders like Depew. Caucusing, informal but general, all over the floor, delated the start, and at 11:10, Powell Clayton, Boutelle, Buirons, of Michi gan, and others of both sides, seemed by their movements desirous of all the time possible to pet the forces ranged into some thing like lighting line. Piatt w.is one or the lew of the bigger men who remained out wardly impassive. Hard Work to Secure Order. The hurrying backward and forward, whispering and combination making bad its larger storm centers near the Ohio, Penn sjlvania, Wisconsin, Indiana and Kansas delegates. The dark horse gossip grew with every moment. A sharp tap of the gavel at 11.35 checked the hum, and was followed a moment later by Chairman McKinley ordering the aisles cleared and some sort of order established. The prayer of Dr. Iloyt helped produce silence and order. The leverend gentleman prated that the man to be selected as the tandard bearer rnirht be one chosen by the Lot d, and a man alter his on n heart. A little fluttering ot applause greeted the repoit by senator Quay that Hon. David Martin, of Philadelphia, had been selected asPennsjlania's member or the -National Committee. Martin wab Quay's candidate, and his selection indicates the continued sway ol the Senator in the Kevstone State. A moment latei Chairman McKinley said: "Mr Quay, of Pennss lvania, leports on the part ot those opposed to the majority re port that they will make no lurtlier opposi tion to its adaption." Prolonged cheers lol loped this announcement of the tacit acknowledgment: of deleat from the oppo nents ot the report of the Credential Com mittee, and the leport was adopted by ac clamation. A separate i ote was demanded by the Mormon contesting delegates of Utah on their case, but tne majoritj report was adopted and the Mormons declared ineligi ble. On request of Chmrman Dnflield, the Alger manager, the ilic agan delegation was al lowed to letire lor 15 minutes for consulta tion, no nominating speeches being mide until after its return. At this juncture a niagnilicent bouquet was presented to Chan man McKinley from some unknown donoi and the incident was ireely ap plauded. A Colored Contestant Kicks. A colored man lrom South Carolina said tb it undei the rules of the Filty-flrst Con gress, adopted by this convention, every contestant bad a right to a hearing, yot the Committee on Credentials had slammed the doors in the faces of the contesting Alabama delegation, and said they should not be beard. Some one made the point of order, liowever, that the Alabamian was a member of no delegation upon the floor of this con "vention, and the colored gentleman was lorced to subside. A communication from the Woman's Re publican Association of tne United States, presented by ex Senator Millet, of New iork, was lead amid applause, and the association was recognized as an auilliarv to the Republican paity. Mix. J. Ellen Poster, ot Ohio, the President of the associa tion, was invited to the stand, and the usual spectacle of a woman addressing a Republi can National Convention was witnessed, airs. Foster's speech was well received, and her declaration Not e ery one who cries rerorm is a reformer," provoked enthusi astic applause. Her assertion that she lo ed Massachusetts the land of her birth, and Iowa, the land of her home, was loudly applauded by the delegation from both those States, but the height of enthusiasm was reached when sho declared that the State grander thau either Massachusetts or Iowa, grandest of ail the galixyof Stites, was the Stale of Wyoming, where women had been recognized as the political equal of man. Alabama, the State of contests, leported that tl ere was a disagreement over the selection of a National Committeeman, and loi a few minutes it seemed tLat the rows of Alabama were once more to be brought belore the concntion. "If there is no ob jection," said Chairman McKinley, "the'Ala bama delegation will be granted time to correct t heir aiithmetic."" Laughter. "The legular older," resumed tne Chairman, "is the presentation of candidatesfor President or the United States." Cueers. It was deemed that the roll of States should be called, and when Colorado was leached. Senator iVolcott, of the silver State, aiose. Instantlv the Blaine men burst into w ild, enthusiastic cheers, tnd all doubt as to tne presentation of the name of James G. Maine was now removed. Senator Woltott spoke as lollows: Senator tl oleott dominates Blaine. Mr. Chairman and Gentlemen of the Convention l "The Republicans of the West sometimes differ with the Republicans of the East as to w hat is wanted. On this occasion there is remarkable unanimity between genuine Republicans of the West and gcnu'ne Repub licans of the East as to who Is needed, and his name Is Blaine. The name of the Maine statesman seemed to be one to conjure with, for when Senator Woloott pronounced It one great howl went up from the audience and was tnken up by a large nuniber or the delegates, New Yolk particularly being very ennsive. Hats and handkerchiefs as well as fans and umbrellas were called Into use and the noisy balconies assisted in the uproai with their feet. Tho demonstration lasted about 60 seconds, and when it was concluded, Senator Wolcott continued as follows: "It Is to us a matter of comparative Indif ference who shall lead the Democratic hosts, but we trust they will once more re nominate their piophetof tariff reform, in order that we may demonstrate in how shore a lire of slander and caiumuy a chastened country may repair the wrong of 1884 and stamp with the seal or final disproval a policy which coulu only lead to impoverish ment at home and which brought only con tempt and dishonor abroad. Importance of the Party's Weifare. "There is practical agreement among the delegates at this convention, certainly among the representatives of the Repub lican States, of w horn your leader should be, and in expression would And unanimous voice, were there not a feeling among cer tain of our associates that the bestowal or office is a personal gift. The welfare or our beloved party, Mr. Chairman, is of infinitely greater Importance than the vindication or nomination of any man within its ranks, and, when the roll of States is called, I be lieve it will be remembered that the ohliga tlons of office are repaid solelj' by faithful perlormance of its unties, and that manhood and independence are never bartered among good men for the emoluments and honors of public station. "Our candidate, Mr. Chairman, has never been President of the United states. He will be: but if be has not yet occupied that office lie has by his devotion to the party made Renuhlican representatives possible, and he has enriched and guided two admin istrations with his s igacltv and statesman ship. H e are honored and respected abroad. We owe It to his stateorait. We are gather ing the Republicans f all America together lu bonds ot closest friendship. It is because he devised the plan and has shaped the policy. We aie protecting onr own people on the farm and in the workshop, and by concessions are inducing the nations of the world to open their gates to our products. His far-eeinzand discriminating vision saw the possibilities of reciprocity and induced us to foster it. The Foremost Amoiie the Statesmen. "There is no public measure sinoe the days of reconstruction which hastened the ad vancement of our country which ho Is not identified with, and when the history of this generation or out Republic shall be written his name wilP'stand foremost among its statesmen. No official station can add to or detract from the luster of his fame, but we may at lexst let history record that such as w e had to give w e gave w ith loyal and lov inp hearts. "The best gifts In this world are not for those w ho seek them. Oar votes ate to be cast for one who is almost every Repub lican's candidate except .his own. For my own part I rejoice that the opportunity is given me or casting my vote for a nominee who seeks nothing lor himself, but every thing for his country. And the same devo tion to the nation's wellaie which has guided hiui in his nublic lue fornaarlva generation insures his acceptance of any duty winch the convention may impose upon him. For many months there has been apprehension in the public mind re spectinp his health and strength. It Is grat ifying to be able to state that the fears which have motcd us are groundless. For our country's sake and his own, wo wish that he weie apain the young and ar dent leader which guided his partv through countless battles, and that his vouth could be renewed like the eagle's. Experience. .however, Mr. Chairman, ccmes only with ripening years. Time lias Only Strengthened Him. "The same unconquerable will and lofty patriotism still dominate his being: and the time has tinged his hair with white, and the vears of struggle In his country's service have left their impress and ho still stands for us who love him the embodiment or all that is brigntest and tho best in American statesmanship, and mellowedand broadened by the hours of time. Thank God that he is stlU amply able and equipped to give to the people of these Mates an administration which shall piotect our own citizens, and looking beyond the confines of our border embrace tho well being of all Ameiica. "And so, Mr. Chairman, we turn in tne hour when victory is at hand to the Intrepid leader, who shaped lor his party the policv which has lifted it above the danger of fur thei defeat. f "To those who belong to the younger ele ment of the party who are content to follow and not to lead, but who onlv ask to bear their share of tho burden and heat nf the day, he stands as our ideal, our inspiration. His name is engraved lu all our hearts in loving letters that can never fade. Bravo. true-hearted and great, there is -no true Rev puiuican woo win not loiiow-wnen ne leads, and with loving trust that a kind Provi dence may long spare him to odr people whose grateful homage he has earned and w hose affectionate devotion he possesses, we pledge onr unfaltering and loyal support to James G. Blaine." The OM-Time Blaine Slogan Again. As the speaker closed the followers of the Plumed Knight gave a spontaneous buret of applause, which lasted, however, but a few moments, but was renewed by a long draw n out calliope howl lrom a man of lungs in the lower corner of the hall, which was an swered with the cries, "Blaine, Blaine, Blaine, Blame." The Secretary proceeded with the roll call. When Indiana was leached the vener able Richard W. Thompson, ex Secretary of the Navy, arose. Alwaj s a favoi lte in Re publican Conventions, the distinguished In dianian, rising to nominate Hairison, be came the temporary idol of the convention. In response to the popular demand he took the platform, and when ho skillfully alluded to Wolcott's speech by saying the candidate w horn he would name did not seek eleva tion by the distraction of any other great Republican the sentiment elicited cheers of approval. The following is the full text or bis speech: Dick Thompson Nominates Hnrrlson. Mr. Chairman and Gentlemen of tne Convention: I do not intend to make a speech. I pro pose to make a nomination for tbe Presi dency which shall stiilce n chord of sym pathy in every true Republican heart. I piopose to nomlnato lor the Presidency a a man who does not seek elevation to the Presidency by the detraction of any other great nun in the Repuulican party. Ap plause I do not propose, however, to de li nd the history or his life belore this con vention, because that will be done In words or burning and breathing eloquence which can't be surpassed in this or any other country in the woild. Applause Theie fore. with these simple words of praise, I nominate to this convention for the Presi dency or the United Stites, the warrior and statesman, Benjamin Harrison,' of Indiana. Alger Not In It This Time. The call of States was resumed, and when Michigan was reached there was a breath less pause, but no response came from tne Michigan delegation. "What's the matter with Alger," shouted a Southern delegate. A voice replied, "Not in it," and the conven tion, taking that the Michigan delegation bau retired the Wolverine candidate Horn the race, burst into cheers Just why no one knew. When Minnesota wns reached, W. H. Eustis spoke o tho glorious vast of the Re publican party. "Ideas, great ideas, form landmarks in the his tot r of mankind. The great idea or the "last decade is reciprocity. Applause. It has come to us like a discovers . So imple in its principles, so far reaching m its consequences, we won der that we had not along ago established this golden rule of trade. Under its magic touch, soon our ships shall sail swift as tho weavers shuttle between our ports and those of nil the world. 11 o have a golden band to bind nations together In interest and in fi lendship; and with onr ships and with our flag, the lighted torch of freedom shall make the circuit of the globe. Applause. To-day on all onr lainis there Is not a bar rel or pork or a bushel or wheat but what has a broader market and a broader pur chasing pow er by reason or the third section or the McKinley bill. Applause In the great commercial conflict now dawning on the world our country is to the front, while our great rival. In the language of her leader, is without armor and without arms. Praise for All the Pi eminent Candidates. Who in this great battle is the best equipped to be our leader All honor to him whose name Is a synonym for honest money. Unstinted praise to the President who has sustained the flag and upheld the rights of American citizens on land and sea. Applause. All honor and love to you, sir Chairman McKinley, who is like a rock against the flood tide of free trade, and who has lilted tbe shield jif protection above the wages of the -waatoni-. Applanse. All honor and cheers tor the gallant soldier from Michigan, whnae preat record the pea pie will not suffei Domrmmcv to tarda).. We honoi and love b!I1 these none turban because tliareis one deader whom we ltunur and love more, 'Cheers. He has toiled lor tho partyuirjlng all Its Jilutory.

This for thee, my country; 'tis for thee, my country men, that Minnesota, with loyal and patri otic purpose, takes the hand of every sister State and seconds the nomination ot James G. Blaine. Hair an Hour of Blaine Enthusiasm. At tbe close of 'Eustis' speeoh the chief Blaine demonstration or tbe day took place. It seemed as if it were without end. The orowdyelled, waved umbrellas, threw hats in the air, danced, cheered, and after every man had come to think human power must soon overcome itself, the old stamping cry, "Blaine, Blaine, James G. Blaine," spread throughout the audience. When It had lasted so that subsidence was coming from exhaustion someone in the crowd began hissing. When a lady was given a huge star bear ing the portrait or Blaine she wared it on high and the cheering was again renewed. The enthusiasm began to stir up the old Blatnamen who had reluctantly consented to go into tho McKinley 'movement, and this once again excited Foraker's hopes that the gallant wai-horse of his devotion might go through In a hurrah, so that Clark son and other leaders had to go to him and ston him from breaking the programme. The demonstration lasted 31 minutes. W. E. Mattlsn, the colored delegate from Mississippi, seconded the nomination ot "the greatest citizen of the world a man so great that no one is Jealous of him that greatest or Americans, that greatest or liv ing Republicans, James G. Blaine." When the cheers which followed this speech of the colored delegate hatl subsided the name of New York was called. As the eonrtlv Depew arose, 5 OjO Harrison repre sentatives burst into one mighty cheer. Depew Nominates President Harrison. Mr. President and Gentlemen of the Convention: It is the peculiarity of Republican Na tional Conventions that each one of them has a distinct and interesting history. We are here to meet conditions and solve prob lems which make this gathering not only no exception to the rule, bnt substantially a new departure. That there should be strong convictions and their earnest expression as to preferences and policies, is characteristic of the right of Individual Judgmenr, which is the fundamental principle of Republican ism. There have been occasions when the re sult was so sure that the delegates could freely indulge In the charming privilege of favoritism and friendship: but the situation which now confronts us demands the exer cise or dispassionate judgment and our best thought and experience. We cannot ven ture on uncertain ground or encounter ob stacles placed in the pathway or success by ourselves. The Democratic party is now divided, but theJiooeorthe possession of nower once more will make It in the final Da t tie more aggressive, determined and unscrupulous than ever. Irstirts with 15 States secure without an effort, bi processes which are a travesty upon popular government, and if continued long enough will paralyze insti tutions lounded upon popular suffrage. It has to win four mote States in a fair light States which, in the vocabulary of politics, are denominated doubtful. The Individual Voter Appealed To. Tbe Republican party must appeal to the conscience and judgment of the individual voter in every State in the Union. This is 'in accordance with the principles upon which it was founded and the objects for which it contends. It has accepted this Is sue before, and fought it out with an extra ordinary continuance of success. The conditions of Republican victory from 1860 to 1880 were created by Abraham Lin coin and U. S. Grant. They weie that the saved Republic should be lun by its saviors; the emancipation of slaves; the reconstruction of the States: tho reception of those who had fought to destroy tbe Republic back into the fold without penalties or punish ments and to an equal share with those who bad fought and saved the nation into the solemn obligations and inestimable privi leges of American citizenship. They were the embodiment into the Constitution of the principles for w hicli 2.000,000 men had fought and 600,000 had died. They were the restora tion of public cicdit, the resumption of specie payments and the prosperous con dition of solvent business. For 25 years tbev were names with which to conjure, and events fresh in the public mind, which weie eloquent with popnfar enthusiasm. It needed little else than a recital of the glorious story of its heroes and a statement of the achievements or the Republican party to retain the confidence of tbe people; but from the desire for a change, which is char acteristic of free governments, there came a reversal there cimeachcck to the pro gress of the Republican party, and lour years of Democratic administration. Ancient Records Not at Issne. Those fonrvyears largely relegated to the realm of history past issues and brought us face to face with the Democracy, its per versions and its practices. The great names which have adorned the roll of the Re publican statesman and soldiers are potent and popu'ar. The great measures or the Republican party are still the best part or the history of the century. The uneqnaled and unexampled stoiy of Republicanism in its pi ogress and in its achievements stands unique in the recoid of parties in govern ments which are tree But we live in practi cal times, facing practical issues which af fect the business, the wages, the labor and the prosperity of to-day. The campaign will be won or lost, not upon the bad recoid of James K. Polk, or of Franklin Pieice, or of James Buchanan; not upon the good record of Lincoln, orof Grant, oi of Arthur, or of Hayes, or of Gaiflcld. It will be won or lost upon the policy, foreign and domestic, the Industrial measures and the administrative acts of the administra tion of Benjamin Harrison. Whoever re ceives the nomination of this convention will run upon the judgment of the people as to whether they have been more prosper onsvaiid more happ; whether, the countrv has been; in a better condition at home and stood more honorably abroad nnaer these last four ears of Harrison and Republican administration than during the preceding four years of Cleveland and Democratic gov ernment. Not since Thomas Jefferson has any ad ministration been called npon to face and to solve so many or such .difficult problems as those which have been exigent of our con ditions, i Difficulties Met by the Administration. No administration since the organization or the Government bas ever met difficulties better or more to the satisfaction of tho American people. Chile lias been taught that, no matter how small tbe antagonist, no community can -with safety insult the flag or tnuider Amencan sailois. Geimany and England have learned in Samoa that the United States has become one of tbe powers ot the -woild, and, no matter how mighty the adversary, at every sacrifice American honor will be maintained. The Bering Sea question, which was the insui nipuntable obstacle in the diplomacy of Cleveland and of Bayard, has been settled upon a basis which sustains the American position, until aibltration shall have-determined our right. - The dollar or the country has been placed and kept np to the standard of commercial nations, and a convention has been agreed upon with foreign governments, which, by making bi-metallism the policy of all nations, may successfully solve all our financial problems. The tariff, tinkered with and trifled with to the serious disturbance of trade and to the disaster of business since the days of Washington, has been courageously em bodied into a code which has preserved the piinclploor the protection ot American in dustries. To it has been added a beneficent policy, supplemented by beneficial treaties and wise diplomacy winch has opened to onr farmers and manufacturers the inantets orother countries. The. navy has been bntlded up on lines which will protect American citizens nnd American interests and the American flag all over tbe world. k A Splendid Financial Record. The public debt has been reduced, the manning bonds have been paid off. The public credit has been maintained. The burdens of taxation have been lightened. Two hundred millions of currency have been added to the people's money without dls tm banco of the exchanges. Unexampled pi ospenty has crowned wise laws and their wise administration. The mnin question which divides us is to whom the credit of all this belong. Orators mav stand ui.on this platform, more able and more eloquent than 1, who will paint, in more brilliant colors; but they cannot put in more earnest thought the affection and admiration of Republicans for our distin guished ex-Seoretary of Btate. I yield to no Republican, no matter from whit Btate he hills, in admiration and respect lor John Sherman, for Governor McKinley, for Thomas B Reed, for Iowa's great son. for the favorites of Illinois, Wisconsin and Mlchlgani but when I am told that the credit for the brilliant diplomaey of this U. ministration belongs exclusively to the Sec retary of State; for the administration of its tliianoas to the Secretary or the Tresuryi for Hie construction of its ships to the Secretary of the Nary; tor the Introduction of American pork in Europe to the Secretary or Agricul ture; for tbe settlement, so far as it is set tled, or the curienov question to .Senator John Sherman; for the fotmulation or the tariff laws to Governor McKinley; ror the removal of the restrictions placed Dy foreign nations npon the introduction of American pork to our Ministers nt Paris and Berlin, I am tempted to seriously inquire who, dur ing the last four years, has been President of the United States, anyhowT Crcsar, when he wrote those commentaries which were the history of the conquests of Europe under his leadership, modestly took the position or Aoneas, when he said, "They are the narrative of events, the -whole of which I saw nnd the part of which I was.'' Splendid Deeds of Military Lieutenants. General Thomas, as tbe rock or Chlcka mauga, oocuples a plaee in our history, with Leon Idas among the Greeks, except that he succeeded where Leonldas failed. The re sistless rush or Sheridan and his steed down the valley or Shenandoah is the epic 'or 'our Civil War. The march of Sherman from Atlanta to the sea is the supreme triumph of gallantry and stiategy. It detracts noth ing from the splendor or the fame, or the merits of the deeds of his lieutenants, to say that having selected them wlih marvelous sagacltv and discretion. Grant still remains the supreme commander of the National Army. All the proposed aots of any adnjinistra -tion, before tneyare formulated, are passe'd upon In Cabinet Council, ana the measures and suggestions or the ablest Secretaries would have failed with a lesser President; but for the good of the country and the benefit of the Republican party, they have succeeded because of tho suggestive mind, the indom itable courage, the intelligent appreciation of situations and tbe grand magnanimity of Benjamin Harrison. It is an undisputed fact that during the few montljs when both the Secretary ol State and the Secretarv of the Treasury were ill, the President per sonally assumed the duties of the State'De Snrtment and the Ti easury Department and oth with equal success. The Secretary of State, in accepting his portfolio under Pres ident Garfield, wiote: "Our administration must be made bril liantly suocesslul ana -strong in the confi dence and pride of the people, not at all dl vei ting Its energies for re-eleotlon and yet compelling that result by the logic of events and bv the imperious necessities of the situ ation." Blaine's Words Turned Against Him. ' Garfield fell before the bullet of the assas sin, and Mr. Blathe retired to private life. General ,Harrlion invited him to take up that unfinished diplomatic career wlieto Its threads had Veen so tragically broken. He entered the Cabinet. He resumed his work and has won a higher place in our history. The prophecy he made for Garfield has been superbly fulfilled by President Han ison. In the language of Mr. Blaine. "The President has compelled a-ie-election by the logic of events and the Imperious necessities of tbe situation." The man who is nominated here to-day to -win must carry a certain well-known num ber of the doubtful States. Patrick Henry, in tbe convention which started idling the ball of the independence of the colonies from Great Britain, said: "I have but one lamp by which my feet are guided, and that is the lamp of experience. I know of no way of judging of the future but by the past." New York was carried in 1880 by General Garfield, and in every important election since that time we have done our best. We lmeput fotwa-d our ablest, out most popular, our most brilliant leadeis for Governor and State offlceis, to suffer con stant deTeat. Tbe only light which illumines with the sun of hope tbe dark record of those 12 vears is the fact tnat in 1888 tbe State of New York was triumphantly cairied by President Har rison. He carried it then as a gallant sol dier, a wise Senator, a statesman who in spired confidence by his publlo utterances In daily speech from the commencement of the canvass to its close. He still has all these claims, and In addition an administra tion beyond criticism and rich with the ele ments or the popularity with which to carry New York again. Harrison Handicapped by Ancestry. Ancestry helps in the Old Woild and handicaps In the new. Theie is but one dis tinguished example of a son first ovei comlng the limitations imposed by the pre eminent famo of bis father and then rising above it, and that was when the jounger Pitt became greater than Chatham. With an ancestor a signer of the Declaration of Independence, and another who saved tbe Northwest from savagery and gave it to civilization and empire, and who was also President or the United States, a poor and unknown lawyer or Indiana has risen by bis unaided efforts to such distinction as lawyer, orator, soldier, statesman and Presi dent; that he reflects more credit upon his ancestors than they have devolvea upon him, and presents in American history the parallel of the younger Pitt. By the grand record of a wise and popnlar administration; by the strength gained in frequent contact with the people, in wondei fully veisatlleand felloltous speech; by tho claims or a pure Ire In public, and In the simplicity or a tpical American home, I nominate Benjamin Harrison, Depew Stumbles Unon Blaine's Name. Tbe climax of the Depew speech came at a juncture unexpected by the speaker. Al luding to the brilllart lecords and deeds of the administration, he said: "Who will be credited a share in every one of them!" Instantly a voice shouted "Blaine," and an other monster demonstration was precipi tated by tho followcis of the Plumed Knight. The expected demonstration followed Mr. Depew's speech, and it nearly rivaled the Blaine outbuist of a few minutes' previous. A huge 6x8 portrait of the President was borne down to the grand stand, and Hon. Fred Douglass, the leader of tbe colored lace, led the mighty ovation by mounting a chair and walng his hat hUh into the air, while his white hair was flung to the bieezes. The band struck up a lively air, and the enthusiasm grew with every minute. A quick-witted Blaine man was the first to check it. Grasping the huge silken banner of the Chicago Blaine CMub, bearing the por trait or the great populai leader,be matched up the center aisle. As the Blaine and Hai lison banners met midway, a counter demonstration followed, which woids can scarce adequately describe. Age and 3 outb, the sedate and the cheerful, the austere and the guy, all lolned in the enthusiasm of the occasion. Tne trl-coloi plumes ot Blalno were hoisted on eveu' side, and as if by marie a scoie ot portraits of Harrison and Blaine men swun to the breeze. In 20 minutes the lival demonstration had subsided sufficiently lor the Chair to an nounce that ex Senator Warner Miller, of New York, was recognized. The Nicaragua Canal Man Speaks. Mr. President and Gentlemen ofthe Convention: You have no longer time to listen to the recoidsof our gi eat statesmen of tbe past. You have come now to the supremo hour or this convention. Thus far it has been a con vention in which kindly spirit has prevailed upon all sides, and I have no doubt. Sir, that it is to prevail to the end; and that what ever may be the outcome of the convention, it will be ratified by the whole Republican party of this country and by a majority or the votes or thepeople. Applause. We have a portion of the New Yoik delegation that I represent which does not come here to make any detraction fiom the worth or character ot any man who has been in high authority or of the President ot the United States. Cries or "good, good." " We in dulge in nothing or that kind. We upheld tne hands or the men whom we put in power' uvonrvoies innew 10m lour 3 ears ago; but wo come here believing that the candi date I name or shall secondfenn do mnch more for us in the great State or NewYoik in enabling us to achieve a victory in No vember than any candidate that can be mndc. Applause. The Republican majority in the State of New Iork are found in the great Interior counties north of the city. Since t have been in Minneapolis I have received hun dreds of dispatches Iiom leading citizens in the great counties of St. Lawrence and Chautauaua that I might mention, and thev all tell me that the idol of their people in the ipli Id East is the idol that we have held for 20 years. Applause. Eulogies Cannot Add to Blaine's Pnm. If I did not believe that this candidate, who has already been named here, would give us greater assurances of success than any other, I should not give him my voice here, nor my vote. Cries of "Good!" Nothing that I can say or do here, and noth ing that anyone can say or do here, will add anything to the honor or lame of the idol of the Republican party ot this country. Ap plause. Nothing can be said here that can detract anything from the honor and merit that belong to him as a statesman. Ap plause. I would not weaiy your patience by any recital of his history or of his achievements, because they are known tot everyone in this audience.

Thus, finally giving you mv assurance of what I know to be the sentiments of the ?eople in the interior of the State of New ork and of the delegates who represent to a large extent those constituencies, I, in be half of those constituents of mine and in behalf of a majority of the delegation of tho State or "New York, second the nomina tion or James G.

The General understanding had been that. ex-liovernorTomkerwouia mane tne prin cipal speech for Blaine, and when, for some reason unknown to the great bulk of the au dience, he reluctantly but firmly declined, disappointment was intense. Another colored orator gained the plat form, and was coldly received at first; but when he said a sarcastic reference had been made to the shouting of the people in the galleries for Blaine, he brought down the house by the declaration, "Thank God, tho people in tbe gallery have a vote at the polls." Then he had the audience, and every sentence was cheered to his last, that "Eternity itself shall catch the name of James G. Blaine." "Spoonei. Spooner, Soooner, Spooner,' shouted 100 voices when the State or Wis consin was called, and as the popular ex Senator strode up the aisles the Harrison men cheered him to the echo. He, said: Ex-Senator Spooner1 Eloquent Speech. Mr. President and Gentlemen or the Convention: The preliminaries are settled, and it Is a relief that we are at last face to faoe'with the gieat duty whloh we came hither to per form. That the action of this body, com posed of representative men, who love the Republican party, and seek to promote its success, for its recoid and its principles will be deliberate, thoughtful and patriotic, and such as to secure for it the approval or those who sent us here, cannot well be doubted. National Republican Conventions have not been accustomed tomake mis takes. That which met at Chicago, in 1888, made no mistake wheo it intrnstcd the power and responsibility and leadership to Benjamin Harrison, of Indiana, and Benjamin Harri son made no mistakes. He quiokly proved himself an ideal candidate, and a leader who led. Millions of hostile and eager eyes searched his whole life in vain for a spot or blemish. On tbe march and In the battle no man rode before him. Calm, dignified and wise, every day brought from his lips a deliver ance, in itself a perfect platfoim, unexcelled for grace or diction, power of epigrammatic statesmen and the spirit of true eloquence. He Imbned the party with renewed viyor, strength and intrepidly led It to victory, nis ft lends bring bis name Into this convention, Eroudly conscious that the record which he as made needs not to be supplemented by words of advocacy. He has beenfiom tne day or his inauguration what the people elected him to be the President of the United States. He has given to the conntry an administration, which, for ability, efficiency, purity and patriotism, challenges, without fear of comparison, any which has preceded since the foundation of the Gov ernment. He Has Stood for Protection. He has been free fi om "variableness or shadow of turning" in his devotion to the principles of the Republican party and to the redemption of the pledges made by It to the people. He has stood for tbe protection of American Industries and the interests of American wage workeis and placed with alacrity tbe seal of approval upon tbe great tariff bill of the Fiftv-flist Cougres, which has outridden the flood of misrepresenta tion which sw ept over it, and, as did the ark in the deluge of old, now restseupon a foundation as solid as Mount Ararat. He championed and promoted by every means in harmony with tho dlgnltv of his great office tho adoption or the scheme or reciprocity, which as enacted has found favor with our people, not limited to the South Ameiican republics, or bartering the interests of one industiy for the benefit of another by tho free admission of competi tive products, butcompelling fair treatment by all governments of all oui people and our productions under penalty of commer cial retaliation. Openly friendly to the use of silver as one of the coin metals of the country, under conditions which shall sui ely maintain It at a parity with gold, ana striving to secure by international agreemont the existence of those conditions, he stands nevertheless as firm as the granite which nnderlies tbe con tinent against a policy which would debase the currenoV of the people, and must drive the coin of either metal out or circulation. Nor did he forget or disregard the solemn pledge of the Republican party that "every citizen, rich or poor, native or foreign born, white or blaok," is entitled at every publlo election to cast one free ballot, ard to have that ballot honestly counted and faithfully returned. 0 Compelled the Admiration of AIL With skill, dignity and courage which have compelled the admiration of political friend and foe alike, he has caused it to be understood thioughout the world that the American represents a Government which has the power and the will to protect the American uniform and American Interests at all hazards everywhere, whether assailed by peppery neighbors to the southward of us or by the diplomacy or power of Great Britain. Every interest of the people has had his best care and his best thought, and he stands before the country to-dav well ap proved and universally acknowledged to be a man of transcendant ability, of extraordi nary capacity for the discharge of execu tive duty, of exalted patriotism and lofty puipose. who would not for a unanimous ic nomination by this convention and a re election by the people sweive one hair's breadth in any matter or duty, great or small, from what he believes to bo Just and right. It is said against him that he has made enemies and It is evidently thus. So did Washington, so did Jackson, so did Lincoln, so did Grant, so did Gaifleld, so did Arthur. But this convention will not mistake the lamentations or the disappointed lor tho voices of the "plain people " This Judg ment is against the ovei estimates ot the im portance of individuals, and the underesti mates of the intelligence and patriotism of the masses. They will not be gulled nto tho belief that the object of government 13 the bestowal of office. Parties caie little for the ambition of leaders, and whether John Smith secures an office this month, next month or not at all. They do not demand of a President that he shall be able to please every one. They want good government, they demand hon esty and ability and industry and purity in publlo and private life, and 'all this they have had in Benjamin Harrison and they know it. ' Able to Lead the Contest We place him before this convention as. one who can bear ana will bear, whether nominated or not (ror he is a Republican), his full share in tho gieat contest which to day is to begin. Ihe Republicans or every State save one In convention assembled have indoised with enthusiasm his. admin istration. Upon that administration and its record of ifllcieiicy and achievement the Republican party is to Invite the coming campaign. There is nothing peisu.isive in the assertion that the people who officially approve an administration will withhold theli approval from the man who is re sponsible tor it, and who has largely made It. Put him again at the head of the column. Placo In his hand tbe banner of Republican Ism and he will rry it aggressively, all tho time at the frontPhnd he will lead us again to victory. There will be irresistible power and in spiration in the knowledge w hich pei vades the people that so long as he Is President there is one at the helm who, w liatevci be tides us, at home or abroad, will bring to the solution of every question, to the execution of every policy and to the peifonnance of every duty a splendid and disciplined intel lect, absolute rectitude or purpose and un faltering desire to consetve every interest or every section, a self poise which is a sure saregnaid against hasty or mistaken judg ment, and a patriotism which never has wavered, either In war or in peace. Depew Pat One In Mind of Demosthenes. S. W. Downey, of Wyoming, said ho came from that far-off State to second the nom ination of James G. Blaine. Mr. Downey provoked great laughter by saying that when he listened to the speech of Mr. Depew it reminded him of the old days of Demos thenes, it Elliott F. Shepard, arising with great grav ity, grasped Depew's hand, and. itjw audi ence, convulsed with laughter, cheered the little scene with much vigor. The speaker, contlnning, grew somewhat tiresome and was Interrupted with cries of "Time, time." Chali man McKinley came to his relief by .stating that there was no limit to the time of nominating speeches, and that every gen tleman was entitled to respectful hearing. The grateful Mr. Downey testified his appre ciation by turning to Mr. McKinley and tell ing him to make no pledges and that when four years more rolled around he would be. the invincible candidate of the Republican party. Cheers. "At the conclusion ofthe call of States, ex Governor Sewell, of New Jersey, moved that, the convention proceed to ballot. Amid great applause the motion prevailed, and a period of Intense suspense followed, as the chair men of the delegations or the various States proceeded to poll their delegations prepara tory to responding to tho roll call which would follow. It w as ordered that the dele gates from the Indian Territory and Alaska, who hadtilso been seated, be also entitled to vote upon the Presldcntal ballot. The Bal ot B-glns at Last. Alabama was tho first State called, nnd when it responded with 15 votes for Harri son nnd 7 for McKinley, a deafening cheer greeted the entrance of the distinguished Ohio Governor into the Presidental contest. Now nearly every State cast one or more votes for McKinley, and each or these an nouncements provoked much enthusiasm. When the 8tate ot Onto was reached, oc curred the most dramatic Incident ever wit nessed In a National Convention a Presi dental candidate challenging the liberality or the vote cast for him by his own 8tate. "Ohio gives two votes for Benjamin Harri son and votes for William McKinley," said ex-Governor Foraker, and the pandemonium of enthusiism that greeted the announce ment showed that President Harrison had lost 27 votes in the State or Ohio. All enthusiasm must have an end, however, and when the cheering delegates were hoarse and tired, tbe peerless McKinley, who had been sitting silent and with a visage ns im movable ns the sphinx, nroe, and in a clear voice, which penetrated to every cor ner of the vast hall, said: "I challenge the vote of the State of Ohio. I am a delegate from that State." There was a breathless pause, bnt the fiery Foraker was on his feet and, waving his hand deprecatingly at the Chairman, said: "But you have been retired from this, delegation, Mr. Chairman, by yonr election to the chairmanship of this convention, and your alternate has taken yonr place, and we no longer know you as a member of the Ohio delegation." McKinley Cheered Upon All Sides. This generous action of the ex-Governor toward a man who but recently had been Identified with an "opposition faction in the State of Ohio, evoked all the better impulses or the vast audience, and the Harrison, as well as Blaine and Mckinley delegates, found themselves cheering tho generosity of the ohalrman ofthe Ohio delegation. "" "The Chair oven ules the point of order." said McKinley to Foraker, "and asks the Secretary of the convention to call the roll." Another ovation fell to the lot of the Gov ernor of Ohio. This time, however, from the Harrison delegates in admiration of his loyal support of the President; and there was still a noise throughout the ball ns tho Secretary of the convention calmly turned the leaves until the roll or the Ohio delega tion was reached, and called the first name ofthe list, that or William McKinley, Jr. "I vote ror Benjamin Harrison." said the great American protectionist, and the grati fying cheers that resounded through the hall were quieted onlv when the object of all this enthusiasm waved his gavel reclpro catingly to lestore order. "Joseph B. Foiakcr," shouted the clerk and there was a breathless pause. "William McKinley, Jr.." said the ex-Governor, and this time It was the fiery Foraker who, for his loyalty to the Governor of his State, deserved tbe plaudits ofthe multitude. Name alter name was called, and when the end or the roll was leached it gave one vote to Benjamin Harrison and 45 votes lor William McKin ley, Jr., a loss of one to the President by reason of tbe polling of the delegation. How McKinley' Alternate Voted. One of the Harrison delegation had re considered and voted for McKinley, and the Governor's alternate, it was discovered, had on the first ballot actually voted for Har rison In obedience to tbe previous request of McKinley, although the latter, doubtless, supposed be had disobeyed this Injunction and voted for his-chief. When the State of Pennsylvania was called a minute later, a great surprise greeted the convention. Various delegates, who had up to this time apparently been docile under the leadership of Senator Quav, revolted, ana wuen tne result was an nounced Harrison had ten more votes from this State than had been expected. Of course, tlio Harrison people cheered tumult ously at this announcement. Senator Quay, or that State, said: "There Is a difference of opinion in the Pennsylvania delegation upon the verification of the count of our vote as polled, and I am compelled to ask the chair to oraer a ron can. The Chairman On account of a disagree ment in the Pennsylvania delegation, the Chairman of tbe delegation, Senator Quay, requests a call of the roll of delegates. The Secretary will call the roll. The Secretary then proceeded to call the roll of the delegates from Pennsylvania, almost e ery answer being cheered by one side or the other. Pennsylvania's Vote In Detail.

Bow the Result Was Greeted. Cheers after oheers were given until men were fairly falling with exhaustion on the floor. The Chairman1 pleaded for order untl silent was restored. While the tumult was still on. President McKinley relinquished the chair to Elliott F. Shepard, of New York. Mr. McKinley made his way to the floor, and, after several vain efforts to be heard in tbe confualon, finally succeeded In attracting the attention of the convention, and addressed the Chair as follows: "Mr. President and gentlemen of the con ventton, I move that the rules be suspended and Benjamin Harrison be nominated lor President of the United States by acclama tion." The motion was seconded by many dele gates, amid cries or "Not No!' and much confusion. An enthusiastic Blaine man made the point of order that the motion of Mr. McKinley was not in order pending a roll call. f , "I desire to say," said Mr. McKinley, "that you can suspend any rule you have gut by a two-thirds majority, and let us do it now." Once more the Harrison people gave mani festation that their cup of joy was over flowing, but the Blaine and MiKiuiey peo ple were still obstinate and refused to yield to the persuasive Influence of the generons Governor of Ohio. The Chairman pro tem, Mr. Shepard, started to put tho motion, bnt there was such evidence of disapprobation tbat his voice could not be heard. The interpreter of the rules or the Firty first Congress and he is a man who helped to frame them says that we may suspend these rules at anv time." shouted Mr. Shepard, and the vast audience cheered both McKinley and Reed, not knowing to which he refencd. McKinley Withdraws Hi Motion. Just at this Juncture various gentlemen surrounded Mr. McKinley and a hurried con ference wns held. The latter again mounted the platform, beckoned for recognition, and said: "Mr. Chairman, let me say one word. There are States, as I understand it, thai have not been reached which desire to record their votes, and I understand that they desire to record their votes in the direction of my motion. Applause. I, theretore, in order to enable them to do so, withdraw my motion." Prolonged ap plause. "Hurrah for McKinley," shouted a sten torian volco In the gallery, and the cheer was taken up until the Napoleon exponent of tariff reform was compelled to bow his acknowledgments. The roll call continued, and of course from that timo on showed steady and significant gains for Harrison. At the end it was obvious that he was nom inated by a considerable majority, but it re quired the clerks a long time to foot up tho result. "The clerks will announce the remits of the roll call." said Chairman McKinley, half an hour later, he having rosnmed the chair In tho Interval. "The whole number or votes," said the clerk, "is SXM;: the number necessary to a choice, is 453 Applanse. Benjamin Har rison receives 63516 votes. Prolonged ap planse. Jameg G. Blaine receives 132 1-6. Applanse William McKinley receives 182. Cheeis. Robert Lincoln 1 vote, and Thomas B. Reed, 1 vote." Applause. Harrison Formally Dec1ard the Nominee. "Benjamin narrison having received a majority of all the votes cast," said Chair man McKinley, "is the nominee of this con vention; shall that nomination be made unanimous?" Great applause and cheers and cries of "J es, yes, lot us make it unani mous." . "All in favor of making it unanimous say aye," said the Chairman. There was a storm of ayes. Chairman McKinley never put the negative. "It is unanimous," said he, at 4:36 p. M., and once more the convention gave itself over to one of those scenes of enthusiasm which had become so familiar to (be proceedings of the day. A delegate moed to adjourn until 8 o'clock p. M.. and although there was a dis position to finish up the work at once, the motion prevailed and the convention ad journed until tbat hour. Immediately after the adjournment, the rumor went forth that Whltelaw Reid, tho editor of the New York Tribune, nad been selected by the delegates or New York as their candidate for Vice President, and that he would receive tbe solid vote of the Em pire btate. This report spi end with light ning rapiditv, although it was not nnthorl tatlvelv conflrmed by the New York delega tion, and the boom of the e-t-diplomat at once began a formidable movement. SECOND HONORS FOR REID. The Convention Cono'ades Its Ij-ibors by Naming the New York Tribune Editor for tbs Vice Presidency Xfx-Speaker Keed Declines to lie a Candidate. Convention Hall, June 10. The con cluding session began frith these words by Governor McKinley: 'The order of busi ness is the presentation of candidates for "Vice President of the United States. The Secretary will call the roll oi States and Territories." Senator O'Connor, of New York, said, when New York was reached: "3rr.Chair man At a meeting ot the New York dele gation, regularly called, in the absence of Senator Miller I was designated as Chair man and instructed by the unanimous voice of the delegation to present a name of a distinguished citizen of the State of New York in nomination for Vice President. As you all know, the great majority of the delegation since the opening of this convention have been working very strenuously for tho nomination of a candi date that this convention in its wisdom did not see flt to sanction; but I -vant to notify the KeDublican delegates from every part of the United Stales that a large majority or them subordinate their personal views and acquiesce 111 (he wisdom or the convention.
