THE OMAHA DATL BEE : THURSDAY. OCTOBER 5 , IS9H , The population Is nbout n largo as that of Grand Isle. Mnjr Itn Snnln The news from Grand Isle was appalling , but thcro nro mnny persons in the city famil iar with the geographical position of the Island and the surroutiJIng country , who , nro Inclined to bollovo the reports nro exaggerated. It Is not the flrst tltno Grand Isle lias been rci > ortcd to have occn washed away. The Island Is practically cut oft from roninninlcatlon , and the only , moans of obtaining Information 1 * through the regular passenger steamer that plies between this city anil the Ul.ind , and the many lug- icrs ; engaged In the oyster trade. A largo store at Burns 1ms boon lifted from Its foundations. A house at Oleander station off In the distance was do- mdllshcd. At Iluras the river steamer Comet , running between thuronnd Port Knds. under the command of Captain H. I * King , had a lively experience. Captain Lang told the Associated press reporter that during tlio night Of the storm a man by the name of Caacy , who was stationed at the end of the Jollies , had been washed overboard and drbwnod. t'nroff to the westward of Uuras could bo indistinctly seen the innstnof u three-masted schooner. During tlin nwfnl night she luid drugged lier anchors from Grand Cas.s and gone nshoro on the shoals of Adams bay. She had her Hat ? nt half mast us a distress signal mill seemed In a dilapidated condition , but the people wcro too busy looking after their own losses to give her any assistance. Early In thoi morning , when the Grand Isle railway hands were clearing tlio debris from tlio tracks Just nbovo Uuras , they found the body of n little girl In n fence corner. It was horribly torn on the barb wires. Clinging to the child wore two others , evidently her sisters. All three wore In rags , almost naked , and all terribly cut mid bruised. An Italian recognized1 them as children bo had seen at Oyster Uayou , but. did not know whoso they wero. Inn Night of Terror. Perhaps one of tlio most thrilling experi ences of tlio storm was a story told by a woman who drifted ashore last night lashed to a log. Her husband und two children had talcon refuge -on board n schooner outside of IJayou Cook and Intended to ride out the galo. When the wind en mo from the west , followed by a mammoth wave , the husband and two children were washed overboard , and the lugger's mast snapping oil at Its foot drifted away. The frantic woman jumped on tlio floating timber and in some way lashed herself oil it. All night she drifted through Adams bay mid the neighboring bayous , and when day came she was picked up by the lugger. She was miimol Mid terribly bruised. Jbbn A. Hoput , one of the many unfortu nate fishermen who lived on the shoi-o of Bayou Cook , told a reporter of the Asso ciated press that there was nothing loft on the Islands. On Bayou Simon , which is situ ated in Grand bay , thcro were fourteen ( Isli- crmcn drowned. It is suld everything on Bayou Cook is gone , not a homo loft , and the Almighty himself only knows how many people are lost. The family of John Barblor , a fisherman in Bayou Coolc. has been washed away. Four children and the wife were rescued , but the husband anil two children wcro drowned. The next house was occupied by a man , wife and two children. Tl > o wlfo and two children wore caught in the water and setoff off at a rapid rate in the darkness and were drowned. George Cerarochl also lived In the neigh borhood and was there on the terrible night with his family. The waves came with n rush , carrying with them the husband and his wife and his youngest child The father was found later in the night with his 0-year old boy. The next in the neighborhood was a man named llarton. Mrs. Barton was saved but tlio daughters were drowned. Ill-soiled but ( u Illo. The only person who was saved from the Oyster Bayou catastrophe was an old Span iard. Ilu was found hanging by bno hand to n post in an unconscious condition and will die. die.John John Stook , n young Italian about 15 years old , was struck in the head by a floating skiff and instantly killed. Another Italian named Luke Bctrovlch lost his four daughters , his wife and two of his sailors. They had all taken refuge in his vessel , and as the water grow high their cable was found too short and pulled' the lugger buuciith the water. On' Simon isle , in Grand hay , there wore eighteen inhabitants , who wcro keepers of oyster camps , and were waiting for the re turn of tlio oyster fleet. Sixteen of them were drowned. The greatest velocity the wind Attained in this city was forty-six miles an nour , while the greatest velocity at Part Kads was sixty-five miles an hour. The last bad siorni near the month of the Mississippi was in IfcSS , and th'orc was also a severe ono in 1SS9. In 1SS.S , when .thcro was so much destruction in this city , the g'nlo was very high at Grand Isle , and the water oflhogulfvas backed upon tlio land and residents upon the isle were for a day and a night terror stricken. The storm , lion-over , did no damage of great magnitude and no lives were lost. At that time the regular steamer running to the island was long overdue , and there wore rumors in the city that Grand Isle was destroyed. The re ports wcro uiitruo , but thny nail created ( I greater anxiety in the city than tbo reports : that wcro received last night , for the storm of 1SSH happened during the month of Au gust , when there was a largo number of bummer sojourners from the city upon the island , All Weni Urowni'd. Nearly to Simon Ulo Is another small Island called Ha/.or island. Hero n camp of live rnfii were located , who wore all drowned , On Bird Island , wblch was situated a little further to the west and is nioro exposed to the heavy swells , about 150 people lived. They were all drowned , d.id 'On Grand hank , whinh borders the Grand lolco , there were eight persons killed. idIt Grand lake lies this sldo of the Island. It is fifteen miles across nml when the wind is high is very tempestuous. In period H of cyclone It Is , uxtromuly dangerous , In 1SSS .Ijoois iiium not venture across it until the rvclnnu had subsided , and In JSSU the Joe Avoubpr , u Htrumlioat carrying misscngcrs toro and from the island , was wcatber bound tea milu from her hindiucrs and afraid to venture into the Inhn , She lost a day and a half rohi getting away mid her detention caused much alarm In this city. Tlmt was also In the month of August. Grand Ihio is nioro fortunately located to withstand the olTccl of n heavy blow than lx > st Island , host island wits situated to the woatward of Grand island unit was moru fully exposed to the hurricanes of the gulf than bur sister. Back In tlio fiO's Lost island. was the summer resort of thonkmlers ' pf south und southwestern Louisiana and muny of the | > eoplo of Now Or ) can a. It was about 1SSO when u tidal wave .swept over It and tlio island sunlt Into the sea , n large number of lives being lost , Including many pcoplil high in Kociul ami business llfo , Part of the Island is still abuvo the surface of the Bflii , but It la practically uninhabited. lir.iml I.iinillun , . 'Oraiil ( fsio liQ.i directly south of New Orleans , U In about sixty miles as thu crow flies from the city , mid about ninety pillcs uy the tortuous route that In covered in reaching It , There are two ways of cutting to the Island , ouu vhi Sucola cunul , fifty miles down the rlvor. air ! the other via Componu canal , which Is about opposite the old exposition grounds. By cither route Grand Juke must l > o crossed , Thu trip is nmdu In from fmuice.ii to fifteen hour * , uc- coruing to the wind und the. suce.tl of 1Che craft. Thu island is In Jefferson parish , and U has been a summer resort for many vear , not liberally patronized , howuvtir , becausuof Its location and the hick of wlro communica tion. Mr. P F liuu'lni ; has considerably on the island. Tluro uro a num her of stores and small residences. Orand Tcrro Is to the cast of Grand Island and the two are separated by a channel fifty feet In donth. Old Fort Llvlnirston is on Orand ' 1 crre , as nro also the lighthouse nnd n num ber of small residences , Tlio Grand Isle road was projected to run ton point this side of Iho Urand lake , but the route had never been completed. The Island has n population of about TUO. It is about eleven miles long , and varies in width from a half milu to mnllo and a half. The largest slructuro upon It Is the Ocean Club hotel , which was llnlshed about two years ago with arcoinmodatiuns for suvwnl hundred guests , 'llio hotel is a two-story structure , is quite strongly built , and lies nbonl four squares from the beach. The island Is sandy , Is said to have a rock founda tion , and Is conlldcrably higher at ono end than llio othur. The Kninz property is about llvo miles from Iho Livingston lluhl- house , and consists of about a dozen small cottages lying < i halt n mile from the beach ; I'litturi' * < if DruoliMlim. The wiiltl was highest about mldnlcht and continued for a eotiplo of hours. Then it began to nb.ito in severity until 4 o'clock , when it was blowing with only moderate velocity , finally dying out. Whllo the wind 1 was highest rain foil In torrents. When the wind died out the waves began to decrease In slz'i nnd the water that hail swept over thu land began to run.bnfck again Into the gulf. When daylight broke the picture of desola tion was awful to behold. Only hero and there stood a houso. ICverywhuro there were merely foundations to mark where homes htootl. Trues fell prustrato on the giuiind , great timbers were lodged in piles in indiscilminato confusion , wheru they had been thrust by the mlghlv rush of waters. . Ruined chimneys suggested stories of stricken houses. Furniture , bedding , olothinu' , stoves , kitchen utensils and house hold goods of nil kinds were seattoicd about In promiscuous confusion wherever the vision was able to reach. And hero , thuro and everywhere were llio faces of corpses turned upward to thu peaceful skies , now bright and beautiful , nnd bearing no trace of the awful perils of death. On ninny of them were still evidences of the terrible agony they had suffered before death came to re lieve them of their troublo. Some hud lust their lives in the wreck of iheir homes ; some had been ilrqwnod after escaping from the shells which sheltered them from thu blasts of llio frightful gale ; some hud prob ably given up their lives In a vain effort to save thcso whom they lovud and who were doncndcnt iiKjti | them for protection. Many of the poor fellows , many of the women and Children had lived through the night , but , mortally wounded nnd with nothing to quench their thirst 'and with no medical assistance nt hand , had given up the strmr- glo that very sorely tried men's souls. There were broken arms anil broken legs , bruised ami battered bodies , faces slashed out of all human form. Griivt-s at rnmlllrn. Many a pile of debris was the temporary grave of a family. Chinier Caminda lies across from Grand Isle und is separated from the island by Chinier bay. Its head is stuck out in the Gulf and when the storm came up the mighty waves of the ocean washed over the face of the stricken land and swept everything before them. The Chillier settlement was oven more thickly populated than was Grand fslo. It was the homo of fishermen and storekeepers , and it comprised a colony of 1-llM souls with churches nnd schools and other iividc'iocs of modern civilization. Nearly nil its residents were white people. Hundreds of fishing smacks owned by the residents , and many of thcso were moored to their landing places on the Chinier Inlto when the storm came up , wore destroyed. Others wcro on their way to and from the city , or llshlnjr for oysters , which is the grunt'industry of the islands. Dozens of the little craft that were tied to the posts at the main landing wcro picked up by the muddy water and beached in the marsh or torn to pieces like the housoj of their owners. Hardly any of them es caped injury , and most of them hud been battered to pieces. ToUl Tholifttiiry Amid Tours. Matthew Wortzez and Dominick Mirjro- vich , two sailors , wuro rescued by ono of the luguurs. The story they toll of the disaster at Grand island is iiorrifyintr in the extreme. They went almost wild in giving their de scription of the terrible night , and cried bit terly. The sea was raping all day , they said , und toward night Imd increased to an alarming degree. About 10 o'clock it hurt veered to the southwest. Then came the most incredible story. Thcso men said they wore living on the island at the west end , far out til sea , flashes of lightning would illuminate the darkness and they could see a mammoth wave advancing with great rapidity toward the coast. It brought with it a noise of thunder. On and on came the terrible thing , growing larger each moment. The island was in the stillness of slumber and not a single human Doing could bo seen anywhere. These men boimr too frightened to go to their homes , remained In their boats during the night. Horrified , they watched the wave approach tbo Island until. like a flash of lightning. It struck. Then all was darkness and the Island , as far us the eye could see , was covered with water. Thu next flash of lightning found thu two flsbcrtnen far off to the north of tbo island and lookinu about in the direction of the island tbo.v could sue nothing but a sheet of water. The iblaud totally disnnpoared. Mr. Matthew Schurt ? of Gouldsboro , Just opposite the city , was ono of the survivors of tlio Chinier Cuminda calamity who arrived this morning on the ] schooner Good Mother. Ho brought with him a harrowing tulo of his experiences and of t.no loss of lifo at Chinier. Mr. Schurtswent to tbcd islan about four weeks ago with George Thomas nnd a negro bricklayer named l ouls Huberts , for tbo purpose of constructing a school houso. Ho engaged board in a house In which there was u veryjlargo family , not less than twonty-ilvo in all. The house was a rude establishment of boards , but it had withstood many gales , and thu occupants foil reasonably safe in the storm. It turned out to bo the bier of probably twenty-five peoplo. On * .Mnn'/i Awful Kiperlonce. Mr. Schurts on Sunday night had an ex- porliiiico sulllcicnt to turn a nmi.'s hair gray , and when bo reached the city this morning hu showed the results of the peril ho had : l passed through. Ho was almost naked. Tlio clothing ho had on was torn to .shreds , ills face was bruised , and ho had not yet recov ered from the excitement ho hud undergone and thu frightful scenes of death ho hud witnessed. Air. Scburts says ho estimates the loss of llfo on Grand island und Chinier , and In the Green bay , and Cook. Chalton and Oyster bayou sottlemunts will reach from 80 ! ) to 1,000 people. Whim ho loft Chinier island yesterday ho counted hut l\v \ < s houses stand ing out of about ! U)0 ) before tlio storm. As thu wind increased the bouses began to co to pieces , The wind picked the houses off ns though they had been shaved from the ground with a great knlfo. First the roofs went , and nno by ono tlio buildings weru torn tu pieces , crashing down upon und killing ( heir occupants , aim then rapidly drifted away with the torrlblu currant that was sweeping across thu land. Thu shrloits nnd groan's' of thu unfortunate people wuro heartrending us they were buriud In thu rums uf their frail homes , Mr. Kehurts , Mr. Thompson and the negro bricklayer were in u house In which there were twenty-live peoplu , all middled logolhor and lorror stricken at thu mighty agony of Iho clo- mcnts Suddenly thuro was a fearful crush of timbers nnd the 'roof caved hi , hurrying nearly ovor.v ouo of tbo party , only Mr. Schurts and tbo negro escaping. Mr. Sehurtselung-toa Jloaiing log until hu saw a light In a house not far away. Torn by iliu Mule. Ho swam to the house and was admitted , ' 1 hero were several people in this house , Mr , Schurts had hardly entered , however , when the structure went to pieces nnd out of those who worn in the house , Mrs. Suhurts , a lady and u child escaped. Mr. Schurts succeeded in getting the luuy nnd baby to a trcu and there tbo party stayed until 4 o'clock In the morning , when the wind began to nbato. The negro bricUlaver manauod to reach the polo to which thn fishing smacks are usually tied , and clung to that during thu whole of the awful night , finally being rescued. Mr. Thompson , who lived at Harvey's canal , was lost sight pf , and was probably drowned. Mr .Sclnirls estimates them were twenty people in tiio IHHISO from which ho escaped. It was the residence of Mrs. DIIITOSS. Mr. SoliurU is certain no less than 1HK ) to 1,000 l > cri > ons perished in this awful oyclouo and tidal wave.- ; Mr. Schurts says the nlk'ht was harrow- Ing. The wind Howled , cabins crushed and the ) ii-i'kk | and groans of the wounded und dying ir.iule bis blood curdle. Whllo ho ido miiintHl m thu tree , tin no waves washed ocr him , but Uo uud thv lady uud chilli hung on to the trco and saved themselves from being washed away In the awful , howling gulf around them. Mr , Schurts told n story that was pitiable. On his way homo , hU aim being to put the Chinlcr disaster ns far from his sight nnd recollection as possible , the tug which was bcarlnc htm nnd u party of thirteen to town , was balled by a returning tug , The skipper of the outgoing craft had learned of the storm nnd was hastening back to h Is homo. When he inquired eagerly for news and was told that his family had been swept from the face of the earth , tears welled up Into hiseyes and his ngony was fearful to con template. Orntrnynd the Clmroli. The little church Is , or was. visible from Grand Islo. It was a frame structure , ex cellently fitted up , and had stood for several years. . A simple wooden cross adorned Us top. ' A pretty little thatched cottmra nestled by the side of thu church. When the hurricane struck the Island 'It swept the church out of oxlstenco and lifted thu priest's residence from Its foundation and dumped It without ceremony into the water , which was tli'tn up to the doorstep. The priest and the housekeeper escaped. Thu fate of Ur. Fryo and his family is un known , hut Mr. Schurts says they were missing when ho luft , and that probably the cntlro family , consisting of a wite nnd several children , havu perished. Miss Annlo Douirlass of Now Orleans had been engaged at Chlnlcr in the capacity of n teacher. She was well kuown in this city and was highly esteemed at the Island. Oil MoirJay morning her body was found among the wreckage. She was iulto ] dead ami her remains wuro buried near where she had met her sudden death. As statud above , the picture was a terrible ono on Monday. There wuro soorcs of bodies lying around and beginning to show signs of decomposition. Under the circumstances , for the safety of the rest of the colony , it became - came necessary to take steps to bury these who had lost their lives. M < - There was no time to build eofllns. If- thcro ! had buon time thcro'woro no tools , no boards , no receptacles for"the bodies lying ovorywhcro. So the living merely hunted up | spades and commenced the task of dig ging trenches in which to deposit thu re mains. Up to 2 o'clock Mr. Schurts assisted in the gruesome task , nnd'durlng that tinio he participated in the interment of no less than fifty persons , men , women and chil dren. Some of them havu not n mjtrk upon their persons , while others wuro badly lacer ated. i Into ono grave Mr. Schurts assisted In : placing no less than six people. They wcro all the grave would hold. ww Hobo Hando proved himself n hero. Ho was thu head of iv family that besides him self < comprised his wife and two children. Their house had been torn to picres by the hurricane and tbo.y wort } in imminent neril of losing their lives. Just about this time tbo Wolior had started from her moorings and was sweeping down pist : Chillier with the title. Many planlcs had been blown from her dcuk and wcro distressing her. Uando swam about in the water until ho had se cured sufficient lumbar to mnko an Im promptu raft and with this raft husuceeeded iig saving himself and family from u watery grave. Sutl'L-riMl Torrlb- ! . The Valence family suffered terribly. Tom Vnlcnco is a well known citizen of this city and highly cstuomcd in Granada and other parts of Joffurson parish. Ho had a wife and several childreu and Mr. Schurts believes - lioves that every ono of them are gono. Tuny Valence , his brother , suffered thu same fatu , and so did Tony's wife. John Valence , still another member of the family , was among thu saved , but bis wife und three children were among the missing when Mr. Schurts left. left.It It will never boaccurately known just how many lives were lost in the storm. The mighty waves swept with irresistible force over Ilia land and with such a great depth that it is probable that many bodies and many wno were stilt living were carried into the marshes. As previously mentioned , the population of Chinier was about 1-IUO. Mr. Schurts thinks 1,000 of these have been lost , though bis calculations may bo somewhat overdrawn. No thought has been given to tliu monetary damtvge. Steps were immadialoly taken for the or ganization of relief parlies. Jt is not. un likely many will porlsli from starvation and thirst. The wind anil waves destroyed all the provisions upon Chinier island and swept away all the cisterns of thu residents. Tlio result is that fresh watur is so scarce lhat it is not stiniciont lo rolicvo the thirst of the hundreds who uro without anything to eat and scarcely anything to wear and who are as homeless and shelterless us was Robinson Crusoo on his lonely island. Mr. Schurts was ouo of the party of thir teen that came to the city in the Good Mother , traversing the company roato. Each of them had a thrilling story to relate and on their way up they had no water to drink , but fortunately they saved several pieces of ice , with which they quenched their thirst. Krpiuts Sot l'\njre ' < 'r.itoil. News received tonight from correspondents on the Picayune's relief steamer , on route to Bayou Cook , Grand lake and Chinier island fully confirms the reported loss on the south ern Louisiana coast during tbo storm of Sunday ni ht hist. Captain Terrobonno docs not think that moro than , r > 00 poisons wcro saved on Chinier out. of a population estimated by him nt liUO. ! Ho thinks that about 800 lives were lost thcro. The Pica yune also has information from Grand Isle , indicating that not moro than eight lives were lost ns follows : Old man Itaspia of Bayou Hegg , was lost at Grand Isle with bis two dnuj-'litors. His two boys weroi saved. Mine. Unsptu , with three or four negroes wcro also lost. The correspondent was unable to say how many houses were wrecked. There is today only sadness in the news from Bayou Cook and the various settle ments that uro tributary thereto. There bus been a frightful loss of lifo throughout that section. Houses have heen blown all to pioros and smacks destroyed and wrecked. There'is no moans of estimating thu uxact loss which humanity has suffered. Muny of the bodies have been carried into the marshes tipd will novcr bo found. Some of these carrfctl" into the marshes are still living , but.-- without food and water , nnd they will bo Mlk ly to perish unless assistance is sent tiiqipV' ; .

Ho said ho had witnessed dreadful - ful scones tliroughout thu Bayou Cook coun try , nnd the distress xvas appalling. It is variously estimated that from 200 to 50U people peristiud on iiuyou Cook and In that section of the country. The deaths at oihur points , all the way from Hriyou'C.ook to Grand islund and Chinier , wilt swell 'tho total to i nioro than l.-'UO , according to tlio best information now obtainable. At Grand Isle not less than twenty-six perished , On llosnrlo und Union islands the loss of llfo has been considerable. It 'is dillut | to ostnblish the correctness of the report that thcro has been great loss of llfo on Grand Islo. The bouses on Grand Isle uro ouilt un a ledgu that runs through the middle of the island und , as many of them aru sheltered by thu rocks , It is itinicult to culculatu from the wntor what the result of the slor.ni thcru has been. There arn only about 200 resi dents on the islands nnd no ono has yet ar rived directly front thoro.

The reading of the resolutions was punctu ated by vigorous npplauso , at thu i.'Ioio of every sentunco. Tliu plank endorsing Clu\u- land's mebsagu demanding tbn unconditional ruiiotil of the purulmso i.-l.iusy uf thu Sher man net , provoked riotous applause from these parts of the hall In which thu Bryan men were oonspluuQ'js by tholr absemol The plank rolatlntr to church und Btalu , freedom of lha press , condumning religious tests fur ofllco , conJemulng secret ' political scc-icties , etc. , was greeted with up- oarlous cheers. After reading the rciolu- Ions , McGrow moved their adoption , Ciogg of Hlchardson , the ono slnglo Brynn man on the resolutions committee , offered ho following substitute for. the currency lank of the majority report : Wo uro opposed to the unconditional ippcttl f the Sherman law and demand that tbo re- enllnt ? net shall o.nrry out the remainder cf ho plniiK In the imllonal drmocratlc platform f 18'J ! ) and provide fiu- the cotniiKo of Uith old nnd silver without discrimination against llher metal or charge for mintage. Itcntitllully llointcd liy llry.ui. At 10 : ! ! . ' ) Brynn took the platform to speak t favor of the minority report. Ho was at Is bost. Never before in the political an- tils of Nebraska IIIIM a democratic convcn- Ion received such n merciless eastlcation at bo bands of one of Its loaders. With 111 * ramo quivering with pout up Indignation , ntensilled hy the ititudu after insults that md bccnhuapcd irwm him by the men massed uniiist him by Tobias Castor and the coterie f democrats who represent ttui ailminbtru ion in Nobraslcn , ho applied the lash and 10 applied It with an unrelenting hand. His inpasaioncd address was delivered with a lory impetuosity that was uutirely now to ils hearers. He had the galleries with him at least , and when ho reached the climax of ils speech and declared that If the i-onvcn- Ion stultified itsull and disgraced tbo du- nocrac.y of Nohrjikn ho would leave thu inrty ami light the battle for silver under ho b.inncr of another party , ovrn If ho went iloiiu , tbo ball rocked with the cheers nnd nnphiuso of his friends and resottmle.l with hu hisses of his opponent ! ) . Mr. Brynn declared that the majority -o- ) ort did not represent thu sentiments of thu lemocracyjif Nebraska ; that the ndmints- rntton was seeking an endorsement at Iho muds of n convention paeiteu with men who vuru willing to' saerlllco the interests of their constituents in thu hopes of receiving a postotlleu. Concluding , ho declared that , ilthough thu convention might adopt the majority report , the constituents 01 the dele- gales woultlnever accept the Judgment until thpy'Hptj Had an * opportunity to Pass ' upon the quo'sulon themselves. Mr. Bryiyi concluded bis remarks at U o'clock , having spoken twenty niluutes. Karrwt'll to Yoitit MUM t loiiiinnl. 11. A. Batty of Hastings arose to reply. Uo claimed to represent the worklngmen , Lho farmOMnnd tbo bankers , and claimed Lhat they were all in favor of the repeal ol Llio Sherman act , He paid a glowing tribute Lo Congressman Bryan , but he said that if Bryan pursistud in using his position in con gress to defend the ticrnlclous legislation [ tdopted to enable President Harrison to dodge a veto of n freu coinage measure ho would havu to go. Batty du- clarcd that Bryan hud been elected to congress by a majority of the independent party of the First district. Brynn was on his feet in an instant , and , shaking his band at the excited convention , declared that bo ran upon a frco coinngo platform and that ho had run for congress upon a free coinage platform before there was nn Independent party. "You never ran for congress before IS',10 , " retorted Betty , "and that was the year the independent party came Into existence. " At the conclusion of Hatty's remarks Koberts of Snunders moved the previous question. It was so ordered. Upon thu motion to substitute the minority resolution Mr. Bryan demanded tlio call of the counties. The vote upon tbo adoption of the minority resolution was as follows : Total vote , 517 ; for. llii ; against , WU. The majority rupert was then adopted. At 11:45 : Brogan of Douglas commenced a brief address , in which ho placed thu name of Judge Frank Irvine before the convention as candidate for judge of the supreme co'irt. Judge Broady of Lancaster nominated Samuel J. Tuttlo. Smylho of Doutilas seconded the nomina tion of Jifdgo Irvine. Somebody in the rear of the hall nomi nated Ii. A. Batty of Adams , but that gen tleman modestly declined. Thcro were no further nominations , and thn vote proceeded by counties. As the roll call proceeded it was very evident that the Douglas county man was to win. The roll call was arrested by a Lancaster county delegate , who moved to make Irvine's nomi nation unanimous. Tho' following candidates for regents of the State university wcro placed in nominu- tian : For the full term , Milton Doolittlo of Holt , and J. M. Pyle of Wayne ; fo1' tl10 va' cancy , C. A. Kloman of Ctistor. The state central committee was author ized to fill any vacancies in its own member ship.A . A vote of thanks was tendered to Chair man Mahoney , and the convention at 12Uf : adjourned. Inclinrd to Hed'-d n I.lttle , In a , brief interview with Congressman Bryan before tbo convention adjourned ho expressed himself emphatically in regard to his luturo course in Nebraska politics. He said : "When I said in tbo course of my remarks that if this convention adopted the majority resolution and tbo democratic party of Ne braska endorsed such action 1 shall fight the battle for silver nndor another banner , I meant just that , but 1 do not believe that the democracy of the state will endorse the action of its representative. * in this conven tion. It has always been true to tbo inter ests of the people on this question , and I am inclined to believe that the desire to court favor with the administration has led many of the delegates to forgot both the wishes and the interests of their peoplo. 1 know ol several inslanc.es in which men secured places on thu delegation by pledging them selves to favor silver and who changed front after their arrival in this city. " XVtiH Hound to Iliivu llot'r. An exciting episode occurred this after noon a few minutes after the convention adjourned. The doorkeeper at the stage entrance bad manifested n surly disposition , while the delegates were assembling. When they attempted to leave after adjournment , ho locked the door , The first people to do- ma ml oress were Deputy United States Marshal Hubbard and Dr. Dunn , both of this city. The doorkeeper declined to lot them out without the payment of beer money. They laughed at him , and attempted to brush past him. tllu at once drew a revolver and placing it under the nose of Hubbard snapped the trigger. Chief Operator Carleton of tbo Western Union , who was in charge of Tun BHK'S corps of operators in thu convention hull , was imme diately behind tlio doorkeeper. Ilu grabbed his arm nnd nttuinnted to take tbo revolver away. Buforu ho could do so , howovoyr the doorkeeper tilinud and snapped the cull at Dr. Dunn. Forfjiintuly it did not uxplodu , and before hu could simp it agaiu lie was overpowered qnd phued under arrest. Thcro was a gcner.il scattering of delegates when the man drew his gun , Chairman Mahoiiuy und Secretary Sheuiitin of the statu central committee being among the many distin- gulshcd'domocrals within range. At thupo- lice station thu man gave bis immons Miller. , i . . .C'Olllt'KMUII III 11 < 'Mtl" | 'I'lllllf. FIIIIMO..T , Oct. 4.
