Their OpiuionsVote by State on
the Motion to Substitute the Michi
gan .H nority Report
Chicago, July 8. The Democratic na
tional convention was In session two
hours and three quartets but trans
acted no business beyond adopting a
partial report of the credentials. There
was no repetition, this morning, of the
offensive scenes uf yesterday so far as
admission to the convention hall was
concerned. By order of the temporary
chairman, Senator Daniel, of Virginia,
Just before adjournment last evening,
the doors were opened at 9 a. m., and
all persons having the right of entry
delegates, alternates and holders of
tickets, wcr admitted ns soon as they
presented themselves. In that way the
sergeant-at-arms escaped the curses
which full thick upon him yesterday
from the thousands who were victims of
his stupid order to keep the doors
closed till the last moment. The rows
uf spectutors' seats were easily filled,
without pushing, confusion, or the dis
play of Ill-temper, and the delegates
and alternates had no dlflk-ulty in
reaching their several sections.
At a few minutes before 11 o'clock
Temporary Chairman Daniel called the
convention to order and announced that
its proceedings would bo opened with
prayer by the Rev. Thomas Rdward
(Irrpn, rector of Clrae church (Episco
pal), Cedar Haplds. Iowa.
The prayer called for a special "bless
ing on this convention gathered from
all over our fair land" and asked that
the fum!l!c3 of the delegates should
be dominated for good, for humanity,
and for God" and that what they did
might "tell In the years to come for
the avuncement and lifting up of our
human kind."
Senator White, permanent chalrman
elpct, relieved Senator Daniel of the
nuvtl o;id presided over the Informal
proceedings of the convention which
followed, Mr. Daniel being In poor voice.
The chairman announced that reports
f f committees were In ordtr and called
for the report of the committee on cre
dentials. That committee not being ready Gov
ernor Hogg was given Ave minutes to
address the convention. The committee
not being ready his time was extended.
I'pon concluding, amid loud cries for
Hill, who was not present, the chair
recognized Mr. Money, who moved that
Senator Blackburn be Invited to stand.
BLACKEl'ItN TAKES THE FLOOR.
Mr. Blackburn, the first pronounced
candidate to be heard, was received
with great applause.
He said the Democratic party had
opened the campaign In splendid style.
They had swept over the skirmish line
and their further duty was plain. Let
us declare we are to promulgate a
platform that shall not obscure or de
flect public attention from the one great
Issue upon which the campaign Is to
turn, that ive mean to unlock the doors
of the mint and put silver back where it
was before. (Cheers). Let us declare
further that we do not approve the Is
sue of Interest berlng bonds In
times of peace, or of giving the option
of purchase to the man holding the
obligation, and that we oppose the re
tirement of the greenbacks.
All these points were loudly cheered.
He closed by advising them to be tem
perate and conservative, but manly
and brave. Do not, he said, fall to
gather the fruits of the splendid victory
you have already gained, and let
every man, whether he desired a single
standard or a double standard, say
above all things, "I am a Democrat."
As Senator Blackburn sat down more
cries were raised for Hill, without re
sponse. A motion to adjourn for half on hour
was voted down and the band was
started up to drown the confusion
which prevailed.
AI.TGELD TALKS.
After further calls for Byran and Hill,
neither of whom were in the hall, Gov
ernor Altgeld was called In requisition
as a stop gap. His swarthy visage, as
it appeared along side the chairman,
was greeted with cheers, to which he
responded by saying he did not come
here to make a speech, but to assist In
nominating a president and preparing
a platform which should bring hope to
the people. He was listened to with at
tention as he proceeded to discuss the
cause of the exciting conditions of dis
tress which he summarized as the com
bined action of the monled intersts of
the world to make money dear and
property and labor cheap. Shall we go

hundred cent dollars or go back and
pay In one hundred cent dollars? That
was the great question before the con
vention and the response was a vigor
ous "No." Another point loudly cheered
was when he declared: "We will have
no straddling on platform and no strad
dling on candidates."
Mr. George F. Williams, of Massachu
setts, was next called upon and was
greeted with a cry of "Three cheers for
George Fred Williams!" He combated
the assertion that the scat of empire
had been transferred from the Atlantic
coast to the Mississippi valley.
VICTORY FOR BRYAN.
At this point the chair announced a
partial report of the committee on cre
dentials, recommending that each of
the territories and the District of Col
umbia be granted six votes. Second,
after careful comparison of the creden
tials, returned by the national commit
tee, they found all of them correct, ex
cept those from the states of Nebraska
and Michigan. In regard to Nebraska
they were pleased to report that the
delegates headed by Hon. W. J. Bryan
should be admitted to seats. In regard
to Michigan they asked further time.
Mr. Mahoney, of Nebraska, rose In
the body of the hall and gracefully of
fered to vacate the seats now occupied
by the sitting members for the benefit
of their successful contestants.
At 1.10 the gold delegation from Ne
braska retired to a march tune by the
band and their silver successors took
their places.
Governor Altgeld then moved that the
convention take a recess until five
o'clock, here were loud shouts of dis
approval but the question was put and
declared carried. Recess till 5 o'clock.
The convention reassembled at 5.15
p. m. with a full attendance of dele
gates and with crowded galleries.
Senator Daniel, of Virginia, was in the
chair as temporary chairman. Senator
Hill, ex-Governor Flower and Mr. Whit
ney were conspicuously absent, Mr.
Perry Belmont hovered, around, a If
he had no particular liking for his sur
roundings. There appeared to be no
business ready for presentation and tho
band had to fill ui the time, which It
did to general enjoyment and satis
faction. Senators Harris, of Tennessee, Cock
rell, of Missouri; Jones, or Arkansas,
and Tuillman, of South Carolina, with
ex-Senator Regan, of Texas, moved
around uneasily, from section to sec
tion. SENATOR HILL APPEARS.
At 5.40 Senator Hill, followed by many
members of the New York delegation,
came Into the hall, and was immedi
ately recognized and greeted with
cheers, and shouts of 'Hill." 'Hill."
At 6.G0 p. m. the committee on cre
dentials presented its completed report,
admitting to seats the contesting dele
gates from the fourth congressional
district of Michigan, Messrs. Chamber
lain and Hart, also admlttng the con
testing delegates from the ninth con
gressional district of Michigan, Messrs.
Koyt and White, and recognizing the
right to their seats of all the other dele
gates from Michigan.
Mr. Crosby, of Massachusetts, said
the minority felt It should be known
that In their opinion the report was a
great Injustice. He closed by offering
an amendment to retain the four un
seated members In their seats.
Mr. Brennan, of Wisconsin, advocat
ed the adoption of tho minority report
and said they feared the effect of the
adoption of the majority report upon
the country.
Mr. Stevenson, a member of the Na
tional committee, from the state of
Michigan, opposed the majority report.
"The convention," he said, "has no
right to Bit on credentials at a Btate con
venlon." The only eafe Democrat doc
trine Is to stand by precedents and to
seat the delegates who hold the only
credentials that have been Issued from
those districts.
Ex-Lieutenant Governor Sheehan, a
member of the national committee dis
closed the secrets of the committee room
by saying that at first the majority of
the committee favored unseating all
four of the delegates at large. But wiser
counsels prevailed, and the delegates at
large were retained. But the district
delegates had ben unseated and what
was the purpose. To make the delega
tion 15 sliver to 13 gold and thus open
the way to the overthrow of time hon
ored doctrine of the two-thirds rule,
STEVENSON EXCITED.
Mr. McKnlght, ot Michigan, also a
member of the committee on credentials
asserted that the state of Michigan
elected a majority of 200 to their conven
tion If for silver, and when the admin
istration in Washington found this out
Mr. Stavenson was sent to Washington
to upset the will of the people.
"There is not one word of truth In all
that" said Mr. Stevenson from his seat,
as Mr. Blake proceeded further with his
statement of alleged facts, Mr, Wealock,
one ofthe delegates at large seated in
the front row immediately facing the
speaker, said in an audible voice:
"That's a He."
No notice was taken ot this Interrup
tion. Mr. Blake closed by saying that if
the majority report was adopted the
Democrts would carry Michigan by at
least 25,000 majority.
Mr. Brucker, of Michigan, declared
that he had always been a free silver
man, and there were enough sliver dele
gates In the convention to nominate a
president by two-thirds majority with
out the necessity of committing high
way robber. (Applause and laughter.)
v Mr. C. S. Thomas, of Colorado, a
member of the national committee,
warned them that they could not af
ford to strike down the state of Michi
gan simply for the purpose of obtaining
a two-third majority.
Mr. Powers, of Utah, a member of the
committee on credentials, argued In
support of the majority report of that
committee on the ground that the title
of sitting delegates from the Fourth
and Ninth district of Michigan was
tainted with fraud.
The discussion was closed by two
more speeches one by Mr. Wedlock, of
Michigan, and the other by Mr. O'Don
nell, of Colorado. Little or no atten
tion however, was paid to these speech
es, as the crowd in the galleries was
quite turbulent and could not be kept
In order. The convention itself as well
as the spectators in the galleries were
In a hurry to come to a vote, and Mr.
O'Donnell assisted that view by moving
the previous question on the report.
The previous question was seconded.
CHEERS FOR NEW YORK.
When New York's 72 votes were an
nounced aye in favor ot the minority
report, a tumultuous wave of cheer
ing broke over the assembly. The first
efforts of the chairman to repress the
manifestation by the use of his gavel
were met by a counter demonstration
on the part of the gold delegates, who
rising and turning their backs to the
chairman and their faces to the Im
mense crowds In the galleries, waved
hats and handkerchiefs and stood on
their chairs and gesticulated. The gal
leries evidently strongly anti-silver In
sentiment, were not slow to respond
and unearthly Bounds from fifty thous
and throats filled the vast space of the
great halL The Tammany yell was
plainly heard In every temporary lull.
The band tried In vain to compete with
the babble of noise. Every rap ot the
chairman's gavel only seemed to start
it again as It began to quiet down.
Shouts for Hill. odel calls and shrill
whistles added to the confusion. Then
the silver men began to hiss and stamp
their feet and this made matters infin
itely worse. Senator Daniel's powerful
voice, much worn with its service yes
terday called the next state "North
Carolina."
"North Carolina declines to vote till
she can be heard" replied the chair
man of the delegation.
State Chairman Hinckley, ex-Mayor
Hugh Grant, and other prominent New
Yorkers vainly tried to stop the demon
stration. It went on uninterrupted for
fifteen minutes and was barely silenced
when the roll call was resumed.
PENNSYLVANIA "AYE."
When Pennsylvania was reached and
Chairman Harrity, mounting a chair.
Bald: "Pennsylvania casts her 64 votes
aye," an attempt was made to renew
the demonstration, but it died away in
a few seconds, spectators and del t gates
being almost tired out. The vote was
taken on the minority amendment,
which retains the sitting members from
the ourth and Ninth districts of Michi
gan in their seats.
The vote resulted in the rejection of
the minority report, yeas 368, nays 65S,
absent 4. "The noes have it," said the
chairman, "and the amendment Is lost."
It was now tho silver men's turn and
they yelled and waved hats and hand
kerchiefs and displayed Bland pictures
and made the night hideous for nearly
as long as the gold men, the galleries
impartially assisting. During the Ju
bilation by the silver men, two stout
Kentucky delegates danced a break
down In the aisle at the rear of the
delegates seats, others patting time, as
the southern phrase is, amid the wild
est laughter.

MONTANA'S SILVER GAVEL.
Mr. Clark, Montana, rising in the
body of the hall, produced a silver gavel
from the mines of Montana, which he
tendered to the presiding officer In the
name of the delegation from that state.
The chairman remarked that the ab
sence of objection he would feel com
pelled to accept this handsome token
from the Montana delegation. No ob
jection being heard the silver gavel was
passed up to the chairman. Senator
Jones, of Arkansas, chairman of the
cotninitttee on resolutions, announced
that the committee on platform and
resolutions would meet tomorrow morn
ing at 9.30 o'clock. This was taken by
the heated and excited audience as an
Indication of an Immediate adjourn
ment and for the second time In the
course of the day an Incipient panic
was partly developed. People In the
galleries began to move out with a rush
and a corresponding movement was
started on the floor. The means ot exit
from the building are so utterly Insuf
ficient that trouble might have followed
but for the sergeant-at-arms, realizing
his big voice, commanded his deputies
to "stop those men." When some de
gree of order had thus been restored, a
motion to adjourn till 10 o'clock tomor
row morning was put at 9.38 p. m. and
was declared carried and the second
days' convention ended.

SLAIN IN A MEADOW.
Tragic Mystery at Bell evue Belle ol an
Iowa Town Murdered in a
Barbarons Manner.
Dubuque, Iowa, July 8. Bellevue, 32
miles below Dubuque, has a murder
mystery. The victim is Minnie Kell, 18
years old, the beautiful daughter ot a
widow living on a farm four miles be
low town. She left home alone Saturday
afternoon to go to Joseph GInter's farm,
two miles away, and thence with the
younger members of the Glnter family
to a dancing party at Peter Huff's
house, two miles beyond. She did not
appear at GInter's, nor at the party, and
did not return home that night, which
led her mother to suppose she was stay
ing with the neighbors, until Minnie's
older brother and sister, who keep house
themselves, appeared at her mother's
Sunday morning and reported that they
had not seen her at the dance. Then a
search was Instituted. Her way to GIn
ter's led through Kilburg's meadow, a
mile and a quarter from home, and to
avoid soiling her ballroom gown in the
high grass she carried it in a market
basket with the Intention of donning it
on reaching GInter's.
The searchers, about 1 o'clock Sunday
afternoon, found her body lying In this
meadow, with the market basket and
its contents undisturbed, resting five
feet away. Her face twas badly mutil
ated, and a report that she had been
gored by a bull reached town, but It
soon transpired that this was Impos
sible, as the meadow contained only
yearlings and no footprints of cattle
appeared near-by. On the contrary,
there was present the evidence that
the girl had a terrible struggle with a
murderer. The grass for ten feet in one
direction was beaten down. Her skull
was fractured In several places, and the
edges of a bloody stone, found by her
side, fitted Into the wounds on her
forehead and scalp. Lying by also
were the broken pieces of a limb ot a
tree which had been used as a weapon.
These pieces bore blood and the hairs
of a man and' woman, leading the coro
ner's jury to the theory that Minnie,
a powerful girl, had struck the mur
derer on the head with this weapon, and
that he had snatched tt from her and
broken tt over her head.
She was found lying sideways on her
crossed arms. Her hair had fallen over
her face, and when this was lifted It
was seen that she had been choked and
pounded in the face. The coroner's
Jury returned a verdict of murder by
some person unknown. She was the
belle of the neighborhood, and the au
thorities are working on the theory that
her preference for Joseph GInter's son
excited the Jealousy of other young men
who had sought to pay her attention.
Two of these young men, neighbors'
sons, are under surveillance. The au
thorities have asked Plnkerton to un
dertake an investigation.
FATAL QUARREL AT CROQUET.

Anderson, Ind., July 8. John Lock,
aged 18 years, and his boon companion,
Frank Ross, were today engaged in

and Lock struck Ross with his mallet.
Rosa turned and dealt his companion
a fearful blow on the side of the head
with his mallet. Lock fell, went Into
convulsions and soon died. Both young
men are of good families.
