TWO-THIRDS RULE SUSTAINED.
Immediately following; the final an
uuucement of the result of the fourth
ballot, the chairman, Senator White,
of California; said that the proceedings
bad reached the stage where It was
necessary for the chair to state his
construction of the two-thirds rule. A
cartful examination of the records of
the Democratic conventions left but
one decision open to the chair. The
noise and confusion In the hall made
the chairman nervous.
'Oh, gentlemen," he remonstrated,
"do keep ciuiet." Cries of "sit down,"
"sit clown."
The chalrmnn resumed Ills statement
and said that the two-thirds rule had
been acted upon without objection ever
Blnce Its adoption In the Ohio conven
tion of 1875. The rule thnt two-thirds
of the whole number of votes given
hall be necessary to a nomination for
president and vice-president. There
fore, In the opinion of the chair, two
thirds of the vole Riven would nominate
the candidates for president aniX Vice
president. ' (Cheers.
"Call the roll," lie ordered and the
fifth ballot was begun.
At 2.45 tlit fifth roll call was begun
and it soon became evident that Bryan
would secure votes sufficient on this
ballot to nominate lilm by the necess
ary mujoiity. When Kentucky, which
was one of the slates which did not
Join In the procession, was reached, Mr.
Kyan. who had put Senator Ulackburn
in nomination, roue and said: "While
Kentucky loves her local Democrat,
Joe Ulackburn, and would be glad to
nee htm elected president, yet as he
"served in the ""Confederal1 army, they
do not seem to want him. (Faint
hisses). Therefore Kentucky takes
great pleasure In casting her 26 votes
lor the world s greatest orator W. J.
Bryan. (Cheers.)
Ohio still stood by McLean. Illinois,
(which had asked to be passed, cast her
48 votes for Bryan. This left him with
446 votes, 66 short of the necessary
number. Oklahoma ehuni'd her six
votes from Bland to Bryan, making
4J4. Then Ohio withdrew the name of
McLean and cast 46 votes for Bryan,
making his total GOO.
Before the result was announced, but
when It was known that .Mr. Bryan had
received within a few votes of the ne
cessary number. Governor Stone, of
Missouri, ascended the platform and as
soon as order could be obtained, he ad
dressed the convention liv these words:
Gentlemen of the Convention: Two or
three ilnys since 1 received tills note which
1 wl.U now read In your hearing from
Richard Parks island: "I wish It to bo
understood th.-.t I do not desire the nora.
Inatlon unless It Is the Judgment of the
free silver delegates that I would bo the
stronger candidate. If It shall, at uny
time, appear that my candidacy is the
least obstruction to the nomination of any
candidate who Is acceiiuble to the free
coinage delegates of the convention, or
one more acceptable to a majority of those
delegates than myself, I wish my name
ut once, unconditionally withdrawn from
further consideration. I am willing to
live by the stale instructions for me. If
need be and let the free sliver delegates
decide the whole matter. The cause must
be put above the man." (Applause).
I came to this great city, continued
Governor Stone, as one of the delegates
from Missouri, voicing the sentiment of
the Democracy of the state, to present
for your deliberate consideration, the
name of the Illustrious commoner for
whom many or you have expressed n
preference by your votes in this conven
tion. To those who have been our friends
In this struggle I desire now to return my
grateful thanks, but following the direc
tion of Mr. Bland to myself that when
ever a majority of the sliver delegates ex
pressed their preference for another, he
desired Ills nam withdrawn. Now. in the
name of Missouri, I lower the standard
under which wt have fought throughout
this convention and In Its place I lift that
of the. gifted and glorious son of Ne
i.xnukn i.miil nml lonir continued cheer
ing). So, now, gentlemen, I withdraw the
name of Richard rarss vianu aim eusi
tho 34 votes of the state of Missouri ror
William J. Bryan.
Governor Stone was listened to as no
other orator had been, with the ex
ception of Mr. Bryan, and at the close
of his effective little speech, he" was
loudly eheerd.
BOIES PROPS OUT.
Juds Tnn Wagen, of Iowa, was next
recognized. He formally withdrew' tho
name of Horace Boles from the oonven-

tlon and cast the 26 votes of Iowa for
W. J. Bryan. Senator Jones stood on
his chair, to announce that Arkansas
changed her vote of sixteen from Bland
to. Bryan. Montana changed their six
votes from Bland to the winner.
"Senator Turple mounted the plat
form and said amid great noise and con
fusion that the delegates from Indiana
had stood from first to last for the dis
tinguished chief magistrate of Indiana;
but. in view of the wave which had just
swept over the convention, he was now
authorized to withdraw the name of
Governor Matthews, and to cast the vote
of Indiana for William J. Bryan, of Ne
braska. (Cheers.) In view of the unity
which should prevail In the convention.
I move that the nomination 'of W. J.
Bryan be made i unanimous. (Cheers.)
After the vote of Texas had been shif
ted to Mr. Bryan the chairman put the
question on Senator Turple's motion to
make the nomination unanimous and
declared It carried only a few votes In
the negative coming from the Penn
sylvania delegation. When the an
nouncement was made all order was
cast o the winds. The. delegates and
the audience began to cheer and to wave
hats and Hags and banners; which
while the march around the sections
was again taken up all the state ban
ners being carried In the procession.
A band of music entered the halt from
the vestibule and marched at the head
of the procession, playing "Marching
through Georgia," and other popular
airs, in the chorus of which many of
those present Joined. "Dixie," which
the band also played, had the usual ef
fect of heightening the enthusiasm, and
was cheered again and again. At 3:45
p. m. the sergeant-at-nrms in behalf of
the chairman succeeded in getting u
hearing so far as to be able to announce
that the convention stood In recess till
S p. m.
The proceedings of the evening were
opened a few minutes before 9 o'clock,
when Senator White, of California, the
chairman, called the convention to or
der. At thnt time ex-Oovernor Flower
and a fair proportion of the New York
delegates were occupying seats In their
section. Most of the New Jersey dele
gates were also present. The fact that
both these state delegations had de
clined to participate in the balloting for
the presidential candidate made their
presence tonight a matter of remark.
Tho chairman announced that after the
nomination for vice-president should
be made (whenever that might be) the
committee on notification would at once
meet the committee on resolutions to
the right of the chair. He then stated
that tleneral Bragg, of Wisconsin, de
sired to make some remarks and he ac
cordingly Introduced the general to the
convention. General Bragg said:
BRAGQ'S COMPLAINT.
"I rise, Mr. Chairman, on a question
of state privilege. When the delegation
of 'Wisconsin was today engaged In pri
vate consultation as to what should be
done by it In the future, some gentle
man (I suppose he was a gentleman; in
fact I know him to be such) stole the
colors of our state and passed them as
the representation of my delegation and
of my state. Into the trail of the victor
for whom we had refused to cast our
votes. I make this statement, not In
order to cast a reflection upon anybody,
but simply to place the state which I
represent as Its chairman, right, so that
the record will show that we ttalled not
the Wisconsin "badger" behind the
votes of the majority of this conven
tion." (Chc.rs.)
Mr. Dockery attempted to take the
stand to answer General Bragg's re
marks, and as the two Wisconsin an
tagonists confronted each other, Oen
erul Bragg shook his finger in Mr.
Dockery's face and said:
"If you make any personal remarks
about me you will suffer for it."
The chairman remarked that what
ever asperity might exist between Hip
gentlemen from Wisconsin, ought not
to enter Into a national convention.
He was satisfied that the gentlemen In
the end would be friends, supporting
the ticket and he refused to recognize
Mr. Dockery for the purpose of address
ing the convention.
Mr. Dnckery then left the stand and
this terminated the Incident.
Uovi-rnor Stone, of Missouri, was
next recognized to move an adjourn
ment. He said the work thus far done
had been. In his judgment, well done,
but they had yet to name an associate
for their great leader on the ticket. He
believed this was an important work
which should not he hastily or Incon
siderately performed. It should on
the contrary be performed In the most
mature and deliberate manner possoble,
to the end that the delegates might
have the opportunity to confer with
each other and arrive at a conclusion
which In the end would strengthen the
ticket In order that no mistake might
be made. He moved that the conven
tion do now adjourn until 12 o'clock to
morrow. he galleries which were densely
packed and which to a greater extent
before than last night and undertook
to take charge of the proceedings, here
Interposed a loud chorus of "no." Mr.
Henry Mississippi, moved to make the
hour ten o'clock. Governor Stone ac
cepted the amendment.
Mr. Rhea, of Kentucky, made the
point of order that the motion had not
been seconded, but the chair disregard
ing the point, ordered the secretary to
call the roll. ;
, FIRST OPEN REVOULT.
The first open revolt In the conven
tion against the nomination of Gov.
lAltgeld, manifested itself when the gov
ernor In his capacity as chairman of the
Illinois delegation, announced the 4S
votes of the state for adjournment.
Mr. Harry Donovan, of Chicago, who
has been a Boles man from the start,
jumped up to challenge the accuracy of
the count. His note of defiance was re
ceived with applause from the Chicago
crowds In the gallery, who understood
the situation and cheers followed each
negative vote. Metropolitan and coun
try delegates who had been lukewarm
in their obedience to the governor's will
and restless on numerous occasions,
voted against adjournment. The vote
was 24 ayes, 11 nays, 13 absent.
Under the unit rule this vote was
made 48 aye, but Mr. Donovan and oth
ers disputed its correctness, shouting
that It took 25 votes to make a majority.
"What's the matter with Illinois now?"
inquired the chairman good naturedly
and closed the incident by ruling in
favor of the governor.
The audience followed the taking of
the vote with quite as much Interest
as It had shown on the questions of
the platform and the balloting for a
presidential candidate, and whenever
any delegation voted "no" oil the ques
tion of adjournment, the vote was
greeted with loud cheers. However,
when the call of the roll had proceeded
far enough to show that the motion for
adjournment was to prevail, the crowds
without awaiting for the termination
of the vote, determined to "stand not
upon the order of their going, but to
go at once," and eo they began an in
formal and rather tumultuous with
drawal. The clerk went on wlthythe
roll call and did not always watt for
a reply but wrote down as the state
votlntr "aye" ana la this war the result
was arrived at and was announced as
carrie din the affirmative. The chair
man then stated at 9.30 p. m. that the
convention adjourned until 10 a. m. tomorrow.
WANTS NO SECOND TERM.
Mr. Pryaa Declare That He Will Act
as President lint One Term.
Chicago, July 10. Mr. Bryan received
the news of his nomination in his own
room at the Clifton House.
The United Press reporter found him
In the barber shop with his face cov
ered with lather and unable to speak.
When the barber was through with him
he immediately shook hands with the
reporter and stated that all he wished
to say was "that In order that I may have
no ambition but to discharge faithfully
the duties of the office, I desire to an
nounce that if elected I shall under no
circumstances be a candidate for re
election." Mrs. Bryan, wife of the nominee, who
Is a small, modest-looking woman, had
a seat in the gallei-y to the left of the
speaker's stand. When it was positive
ly known that her husband had been
named for the presidency, she was sur
rounded by admiring friends and heart
ily congratulated. She thanked each
one pleasantly and throughout main
tained a quiet demeanor that impressed
those about her.
To a reporter of the United Press she
said: "I think my husband will try to
deserve the great honor these men have
conferred upon him. I appreciate it, I
assure you. If his wife's aid is of value
In the endeavor to elect him, he will
have all possible assistance from me."
Mr. Bryan said: "This is not a sud
den resolution on my part. I have
had It In my evr since my nomination
has been considered by my friends as
a possibility. . I believe it is a good
principle for me to. follow and I shall
live up to If. The presidency Is the
highest honor that can he bestowed up
on any human being by this country
and the power placed In the hands of
the president of the 1'nlted States Is so
great there should be nc4Jemptatlon
thrown in his way to cause him to use
It fir his personal advancement.".
Mr. Cleveland, in his first letter of ac
ceptance set forth the objection to a
second term In language so forcible
that it cannot be surpassed. A similar
amendment was advocated by Presi
dent Jackson. I desire to express my
deep appreciation of the kindness
shown to me by other candidates. My
nomination is due to the peculiar cir
cumstances which surround this cam
paign and not to any superior merit.
In fuct had the' convention had con
sidered who was most deserving the
lot would have fallen upon another. I
so. highly appreciate the responsibility
Imposed by this nomination that I have
avoided making any promises or pledg
es to any person."
Mr. Bryan did not feel called upon to
anything with regard to the plutform.
He was a member of the committee
which constructed It and his ideas
of what should be uuunclated therein
are prominent throughout the platform.
While not formally commenting upon
the platform In the above Interview It
can be stated with accuracy that Mr.
Bryan as the candidate of his party
agrees with evry plunk and will be its
opponent during the coining campaign
and will adopt It as his rule of con
duct should he be elected.
After Inditing this declaration, Mr.
Bryan accepted the congratulations
that were tendered and In a few mo
ments It was apparent that the room
would not accommodate those who were
surging to get In. In response to ap
peals, Mr. Bryan took a position In the
lobby and for almost an hour shook
hands with the crowds as they passed
In line. It was a crowding, jostling as
semblage, but good-natured. There were
a few cries for a speerh by the nomi
nee and Mr. Bryan was forced to say a
few words. He declared that he felt
could add to the work of the conven
tion, but asserted that no words of his
could add dto the work of the conven
tion. The convention, however, was but,
the beginning and whether its action
was wise or not could only be deter
mined In November next. It was not
for him to say whether the convention
had acted wisely, but It was his duty
and all those who agreed with him to
back up the convention and the plat
form and make the election sure. Mr.
Br) an closed his short but felicitous
speech with the Injunction to those
present who believed In the Democratic
party to make It their business to see
that Its success was assured this fall.
Mr. Bryan has no plans for the Im
mediate future. He will remain In Chi
cago until after the meeting of the new
national committees, which will prob
ably take place tomorrow. In the
course of a few days he will return to
Lincoln, his home town. His eloquence,
which did so much toward stampeding
the convention to him, will be heard
during the campaign, for Mr. Bryan In
tends to do his part In making the fight
for the ticket which he will head.
SKETCH OF MR. BRYAN.
The "Hoy Orator" n Life-Long Ad
vocate of Free Silver.
William Jennings Bryan was born In
Salem, III., March 19, 18C0. He was
graduated from the Illinois college at
Jacksonville in 1881. To make his way
through the Union College of Law he
worked in Lyman Trumbull's law office.
From ls earliest years he had a fancy
for public speaking, which developed
his oratorical powers. In 1880 he won
second prize as the representative of
Illinois college in the state collegiate
oratorical contest. He was valedictor
ian of his college class and came with
in one vote of being elected to the same
position In the law school. From 1880
he spoke In political campaigns. In
1887 he removed to Lincoln, Neb., and
formed a partnership with a fellow
class mate. "I don't think the fellow
knows much law," said a veteran
practitioner concerning Bryan soon af
ter the latter began to practice, "but he
can talk like a devil."
Bryan supported J. Sterling Morton
for congress In 1888. The latter was de
feated by 3,500 votes. In 1890 Bryan
himself ran In the same district against
the same opponent. He challenged his
adversery to a series of joint debates,
and made such a brilliant showing that
he carried the district, which had gone
3,500 Republican at the former election,
by a majority of 6.700 votes.
The fame he gained In these Joint de
bates, of which the tariff was the
theme. Induced Speaker Crisp to ap
point Bryan on his ways and means
committee, an honor which many con
gressmen have schemed years to se
cure. On March 12, 1892, he scored his
first great oratorical success In a speech
on free wool. The reapportionment In
1891 divided Bryan's congressional dis
trict in such a way that It made his
canvas entirely new and extremely
hard. The district was admittedly Re
publican by a majority of 3,500.
Bryan was elected, turning the Re
publican majority Into a Democratic
plurality of 140. J. Sterling Morton,
the present secretary of agriculture,
ran for Governor of Nebraska In that
election and received fewer votes than
any man on the ticket Just half as
many as Bryan.
Mr. Bryan marlred in 18S4 Miss Mary
refused re nomination as congressman
and campaigned for election to tho
United States senate. His platform for
the IS to I free coinage of silver caused
Morton and other administration Dem
ocrats to fight him bitterly. He was,
however, nominated by the state Demo
cratic convention. Two Joint debates,
at Lincoln and at Omaha respectively,
with John M. Thurston, the Republican
candidate for the senatorshlp, attract
er much attention. The legislature
was, however, Republican and Thurs
ton was elected.
During the past two years, and es
pecially since his defeat for the senate,
Mr. Bryan has been lecturing on finan
cial topics In every state In the union.
Mr. Bryan married In 1894 Miss Mary
E. Baird.. the daughter of a merchant
of Perry, 111. She was a student in the
annex of Illinois college while Bryan
studied In the college. They graduated
simultaneously, being valedictorians of
their respective classes. She studied
law and was admitted to the bar In Ne
braska. She is a writer of much ability
anil president of the Lincoln Sorosls.
They have three children, Ruth, 11;
William. 6; and Grace 5.
In a recent Interesting sketch of W.
J. Bryan. Champ Clark, the Missouri
orator and statesman, after drawing a
comparison between Samuel J. Randall
and Mr. Bryan, thus describes the lat
ter: "In four years service Bryan estab
lished a far greater reputation than old
Randall in the same lenth of time. In
deed. It may be said without any ex
travagance that wnvn Bryan quit con
gress he had as widespread fame as
Randall had when he died after twen
ty years of congress. Whether the Ne
braskan ployed his Ideas as deeply Into
the minds of men as did the Pennsyl
vanlan is an entirely different question;
for as late as 1894 the line or cleavage
made in Randall In the Democratic
party on the tariff was easily discerni
ble to the naked eye. when seventeen of
his disciples bolted the Wilson bill, and
several others had the will to bolt, but
lacked the courage.
"Bryan is a collegiate scholar, and
has stowed away In his capacious cra
nium much of the golden grain of wis
dom and little of the husks, and It Is all
there for use, either as argument or em
bellishment. Some men are so ugly
and ungainly that it Is a positive ad
vantage to them as public speakers.
Some are so handsome and graceful
that they are on gowLterms wJth the
audience before they open their Hps.
Of the latter class Bryan Is a shining
example. His appearance is a pass
port to the affections of his fellow men
which all can read. He is the picture of
health, mental, moral and physical. Ho
stands about five feet ten, weighs about
170, is a pronounced brunette, has a
massive head, n clean-shaven face, an
aquiline nose, large under jaw, square
chin, a broad chest, large lustrous dark
eyes, a mouth extending almost from
ear to ear. teeth white as pearls, and
hair what there is left of It black as
midnight. Beneath his eyes Is the pro
tuberant flesh which physiognomists
tells us is Indicative of fluency of lan
guage and which was one of the most
striking features In the face of James
G. Blaine.
"Bryan neglects none of the acces
sories of oratory. Nature richly en
dowed him with rare grace, he is
happy In attitude and pose. His ges
tures are on Hogarth's line of beauty.
Mellifluous Is the one word that most
aptly describes his voice. It is strong
enough to be heard by thousands. It is
BWeet enough to charm those the least
Inclined to music. It Is so modulated
as not to vex the ear with monotony
and can be stern and pathetic, tierce or
gentle, serious or humorous, with the
varying emotions of its master. In his
youth Bryan must have had a skillful
teacher In elocution and must have
been a docile pupil. He adorns his
speeches with Illustrations from the
clussics or from the common occur
rences of every-day life with equal
felicity and facility. Some passages
from his orations are gems and are be
ing used as declamations by boys at
Bchool the ultimate tribute to Ameri
can eloquence.
"But his crowning gift as an orator
Is his evident sincerity. He is candor
incarnate and, thoroughly believing
what he says himself, it is no marvel
that he makes others believe.
"Bryan's first speech in the house
the one on the tariff in 1892 fixed his
status as one of the crack orators of
this generation. It astonished old stag
ers, electrified the country and stimu
lated the ambition of every young man
In the land. Knvlnus carpers lugubri
ously predicted that he could never
duplicate that far-resounding perfor
mance, that he would be like a wasp,
biggest when first hatched, and that his
congressional song would be pitched In
diminuendo Instead of crescendo. But
he utterly confounded these jealous
Cassandras by delivering a speech on
silver which must forever remain as a
classic In congressional literature.
"If It did not increase his fame as
much as did his initial effort. It was for
the all-sufficient reason that there was
not so much room for him to grow in.
If Daniel Webpter himself could have
come back' to life, he could not by
twenty years of ceaseless endeavor In
crease his fame as an orator; for while
here before he butted his lofty head
against the stars. But Bryan went on
to the end making speeches Btronger
and ever stronger, manifesting new
powers every time he arose. Perhaps his
later addresses lacked something In ef
fervescence, brilliancy and piquancy,
but they grew constantly more logical,
if less rhetorical."
The Nebraska statesman and orator
Is a free silver man of no recent con
version. Fifteen years ago, while 'yet
a struggling lawyer, his voice was lift
ed In behalf of the white metal, and
since that time he has never wavered in
his allegiance to the silver cause. While
his name Is not so Intimately connected
with legislation on this Issue as that
of Richard P: Bland, It was not the
fault of Mr. Bryan, but rather the lack
of opportunity. On the score of devo
tion to silver the record of W. J. Bryan
cannot be questioned.
Mr. Bryan has always been a Demo
crat. He cast his first vote for the
Democratic ticket and has ever been
a conslstant supporter of the tenets of
that organization. In this respect he
has a distinct advantage with a certain
element of his party over his neighbor,
Mr. Boles, whose candidacy Is some
what retarded by the fact that at one
stage In his career he was an active
Republican.
