(Continued from First Page.)
Mr. Root without hesitancy peremptorily
ordered the sergoants-at-arms to clear the
isles..' The firmness he displayed appealed
to the delegates and from confusion the
convention quickly changed to a Well
ordered andx' perfectly ' controlled body.
. After prayer by the Rev. .Thomas E. Cox
the business of the day begun, t , . ,
When Senator 'McComas had completed
the reading of the report -from the com
mlttee on credentials. Senator Foraker was
recognised. He, called the attention of the
convention to the fact that Maor General
Osterhaus, a German veteran of the civil
war, was in the hall and suggested that
be be invited to a seat on the platform.
The convention cheered the name of
Osterhaus. The Ohio senator spoke briefly
of the part the general played in the as
sault upon Missionary Ridge and of his
aid to Sherman In the tatter's march to the
sea. The chairman appointed a committee
which eaoorted the general to the platform,
where he was introduced to the convention
as "Sherman's corps commander."
In a decidedly German accent General
Osterhaus thanked the convention for the
- honor accorded him. He mentioned the
fact), that he had been present when Abra
ham Lincoln-was nominated. The applause
which followed was vigorous.
Senator Depew reported that no actio?)
was; necessary by the committee charged
with the perfection of arrangements for
tht; convention to accept, the invitation of
the. Louisiana Purchase Exposition com
1 pany to visit the exposition as their guests,
as this had already been -attended to by
thV'expoaltlon management.:, i
' f Permanent Osarslnlsatlon.
The announcement of the permanent ,or
ganitatkm of the convention followed the
derqjonsfratlon which followed the Intro
duction; of Speaker Cannon, as permanent
cha'jrman. He was escorted.' tor ith plat-i
form by a committee consisting of Hon.
. Jolrti D. Long, Senator Cullom and Repre
sentative Burton of Ohio. The temporary
and. permanent chairman met in the center
of the stage, where they clasped hands in
a cordial grip.
At this moment the applause was deafen
ing,: the convention' rising to Its feet Still
clasping his hand, Mr. Root led Mr. Can
non, to the front of the platform and in
troduced him to the convention as the man
who presided over the greatest legislative
body in America, "with a grip so strong,
a mind so clear and a heart so sound that
he would wieldf the gavel ,ln that body for
many year to Ijome." The scene that fol
"sJowe 'was -inspiring; flags waved, hats
were thrown Into the air, delegates jumped
to their feet and then to their chairs,
.shouting wildly, loudly.. and continuously.
) Until the applause ..subsided Mr, Cannon
stooa facing bis audience, ra contrast with'
v j this was his appearance after he had made
himself heard and his magnetism felt' - '
Bpeakee- Cannon' oratory waa decidedly
to the liking of the convention. He estab
lished cordial relations even before he, had
uttered a word. -He stood in silence for a
"moment on a tongue-like projection In the
center' of the platform. His face fasci
nated. It expressed abundant humor,
strangely blended" wltl' .Virile pugnacity:
He was pausing to think how to begin.
His thoughts, were jlc.tured on his face.
They were pleasant; they were inspiring.

a delightfully refreshing- and humorously
frank avowal. Each pf ths thousands of
listeners received a confidential Up. The
speaker had written his, first speech and
he had tried to memorise It. But he did
not have the slightest Intention of follow
ing it. He knew the inspiration that would
come that had come and. he just wanted
a free hand to cut loose. - -
."So let us jamble A. while.". That Is what
he-said. And then , he abandoned himself
to his limitless store of profound political
sagacity and his. original and , character
istic, vocabulary. Throughout his address
the cheering was generous, intelligent and
appreciative. '
Cheers for Notables.
Former Governor Black came in quietly
and reached his seat on ths plaiform with
out being observed. It was just noon when
Mr. Root went on the platform, which he
obtained by the rear entrance. Screened
by the groups of convention officers and
others, he was not seen, by the crowd.
The hum of conversation as the .Coliseum
gradually filled - had not been broken by
enthusiasm of any kind for some time.
The aisles in the pit were crowded with
standing delegates, only A portion of their
seats being occupied, when Just at noon
the two New York senators and Governor
Odell threaded tbelr way down the center
aisle. ' A cheer went up and the galleries
facing the main entrance began to applaud.
This had hardly died out when the tall
figure of Senator Fairbanks was caught
sight of coming down the aisle to the front
As the hearty cheer went up in that sec
tion of the hall delegates at once sprang
to their feet and more cheers were given.
As the senator reached bis seat In- the In
diana delegation reservation the . ovation
was renewed. ,. '..-,

Just before the convention was called
to order Senator Depew of Maw York, said
to the Associated Press' that he would as
soon the platform was read, move to con
tinue the session tonight or late this after
noon and nominate, the business of the
convention. He said: I have plenty of sup
port from other states. The delegations
are all here in full. Tomorrow' they will'
not be. We must finish today." .. '

was In readiness. Another shout - was
heard to the left and the picturesque Alas
kan delegation, with their -totem poles,
mounted with American ' eagles, marched
in and took thalr seats. At 1:15 the play
ing of the national air brought the assem
blage to its feet, silk flags were whipped
out in various parts of the hall and were
waved in time with the music The band
continued to enliven, things at ; Intervals-
as the wait continued, t Meanwhile the
gallery seats were being taken to a greater
extent tnan on tne day previous..
President's PIctare' Removed.
The herolo painting of President Roose.
velt whloh had adorned the platform dur
ing the morning, was removed that ' the
view from the left of the platform might
not' be obstructed, just as the convention
was to be called to order. ;
, At 12:27 o'clock Temporary Chairman
Root rapped for order, directing the -dele
gates to take their seats. SAQ 'ordering the
aisles cleared. , This latter , order was not
obeyed with sufficient celerity to please
the chairman and he directed the assistant
sergeants-a t-arms to see that .the aisles
were cleared; A second specific direction
from the chairman, directed toward the
delegates in the center aisles, brought the
convention to order.
Chairman Root then introduced Rev.
Thomas E. Cox of the Holy Name cathedral
of Chicago Who delivered the invocation;
'"Is the committee on credentials ready
to report?" asked the chlrman. .
Credentials Committee Reports. .
Benator McComas. chairman of the com

the Maryland delegation and said; -
Mr. Chairman, the committee on cre

report which is now ready."
"The gentleman will please take the
platform," said the chairman, and Senator
McComas mounted the rostrum . and pro
ceeded to - read the" report' j
Cheers for Wisconsin "Stalwarts."
The first part of the document relates
to those contests in which, the action of the
national committee was' upheld. ,The report
wag received fwith a ripple of applause.
An , outburst of cheers greeted the an
nouncement hat the . credentials -committee
had decided, in favor of the 'StaTwarts"
in Wisconsin case. ( . )
The statement of the .committee giving
Its reasons for decisions on ths Wisconsin
ease, was heard in silence, the convention
showing Intense Interest In the report. In
this particular: . . - ... . .
The senator went Into the facts
of the appearance of .. the LaFol
lstte faction before the committee,
its disparaging statements to the commit
tee made by Mr. Roe, but announced that
it was appended to and made a part, of the
report of the committee. His announce
ment that the credentials., committee had
unanimously decided in favor of the stal
warts was greeted with loud cheers. The
chairman declared that a complete, full
and Impartial investigation bud been made
and there wu no other course : for the
committee. He pronounced ths allegations
made in the report as fur as they related
to the committee to be' vtterly false.
The chairman put the vote. The report
was ad"ptd by a viva voca vote.
Senator Foraker-, moved that General
Osterhaus, ? distinguished German soldier
Pf the union army, be given a seat,
Ths motion was unanimously adopted and
the chair appointed Senator' Foraker of
Olila, and General Bingham of Pennsylva
nia, a committee to escort General Oster
haus to the platform. .
Venator Depew obtained recognition to
nuke a report from the special committee
which referred to the Invitation of the St.
Ixiuls Exposition company to the delegates
of the convention to vlatt the exposition.
No action in the way of an acceptance of
invitation, was deemed; necessary by the
committee. The report gae I. detail the
transportation arrangements, the trip to be
gin at o'clock Thursday night The re
port was adopted.
At this moment the convention burst into
applause as General Osterhaus was es
corted to the platform. Chairman Root
presented him to the convention as "Major
General Osterhaus, corps commander of
Sherman." 'Hie general made a brief
speech which was 'listened to with Inter
est General Osterhaus said:
Permit me to thnnk you most heartily
for the courtesy which permits me to ap
pear before you. I win present at the
republican conventions in IfhiO snd 1864 when
Abraham Lincoln whs nominated, and I
bespeak for the nominee of this convention
the same gforious succx-m.
The chairman then called for the roll
call on permanent organisation!
Chairman William Johnson of the com
mittee, advanced to the platform and read
Declares Cannon Elected.
The announcement that Speaker Cannon
had been selected for permanent chairman
of the convention provoked enthusiastic
applause.
On motion of Senator Cullom the report
was adopted.
Chairman Root appointed ex-Secretary
John D. Long, Senator Cullom and Repre
sentative Burton of Ohio, a committee to
escort Speaker Cannon to the platform.
Upon this announcement .the bonventlon
gave a mighty spontaneous shout and when
Mr. Cannon appeared at the speaker's desk
and Chairman Root took him by the hand,
and led him forward to the extreme front
of the platform, the climax of enthusiasm
was reached. Delegates with cine accord
jumped to their feet and on to their chairs.
Cheer after cheer went up nnd waves of
of sound swept over the throng. ' The ap
plause continued as the temporary and
permanent chairmen Continued to stand
arm In arm waiting for sllente.
Mr. Root raised his hand for silence.
The cheers went on without cessation.
Twice more Mr. Root raised his hand for
a silence that was not forthcoming. The
delegates were on their chairs and their
enthusiasm could not be checked. Mr.
Cannon appeared decidedly uncomfortable
while the cheering went on and shifted
about as though the floor underneath him
was red hot
Root Presets Cannon.
When finally there was a chance for Mr.
Root's voice to be heard, he presented Mr.
Cannon to the convention as a man who
presided over the greatest legislative body
In the world, "with a grip so strong, a
mind so clear and a heart so sound that
he woulj wield the gavel in that body for
many years to come." Another shout
went up as Mr. Root stepped back and
Mr. Cannon stood alone, facing the great
audience.
Mr. Root returned In an Instant with a
large gaveL As Mr. Cannon turned, to the
front of the platform to commence his
speech there was another chorus of . fac
tional cheers and, loud cries of "Cannon;
he's all right" Then came the . usual
query of "who's all right?" and the ring
ing' .answer "Cannon." r
' Chairman Cannon's Address.
The chairman waited patiently for the
applause to subside and then it r being
comparatively quiet, said:
"Gentlemen" 1 ,:
That was as far as ho went Another
cheer cut him off for a full minute, and
then he was allowed to proceed.
Laughter greeted him as he said:- "For
the first time in my life I have written
enough 'sentences at one time to ' make
2,600 words to say to you today, i tried
hard to commit. It to memory, but I can-.
not Mow.", he continued, "we will begin
o ramble.' " ' - IV-
A heat-lhg more quiet, but flattering:, was
given Mr. Cannon when he entered; upon '
the solid matter of his address.
Chairman Cannon's Address.
On being introduced by Temporary Chair
man Root Chairman. Cannon said: .
. The republican party was born with the
declaration that slavery was sectional or
local, ana mat ireedom was national. Jl
has ever been a national party, its policies
benefiting every section and every man
in the republic. It made its first suc
cessful contest for power In llttO, with
Abraham Lincoln as its standard bearer.
Secession followed. The war for the main
tenance of the union was waged for tour
years, .and such a contest of arms the
world liad never seen before and perhaps
will never see again. In the end slavery
was abolished and freedom became uni
versal within the borders of the republic.
With a bankrupt treasury and a bankrupt
credit the party, under the lead of Lin
coln, went back to the policy of Wash

been the shibboleth of the republican party

l'roats, Mot DeAelta, Produce Strikes.
But the little politician cries out thot
strikes abound here and there la tbe
country. ea, they do. out contests thin
lewd to strikes, where an adjustment Is not
irmde and where arbitration falls, are
quarrels between organised labor and or
ganized capital about the division of the
profits. As has been well said by another
many yenrs ago, -there were not many
Ktrikes when the di-m.-rscy hud lull power
under Urover Clve.an, uecau-'e there were
no profits to tilvido. There are profits to
divide now, and with a people who work
shorter hours and wno are on the average
more fully einoloyed-. and with a larger
wage thnn was ever paid before In thu
history of the human rsoe for a similar
amount of work they will not -lie led Into
destroying that-policy which renders these
things possible because of a local trouble
and there touohlng a -division ot the profits.
But It Is alleged that great Industrial
combinations have been formed. and over
capitalized, and that they oppress their
employes on the one hand and- the con
sumer upon the otlier. ,- it is true that
extraordinary combinations have been
formed. That they have been. In the main,
capitalised to their full value and by the
aid of the printer a 114. enaraver securities
have been . issued in many Instances to
many times the value ,of the properties
combining Is also true, .. .
Mo Man Above the Law.
The republican fiarty. frvcr ready ft keep
pace with the industrial development of
the country, has enacted legislation within
the constitution, prohibiting such combina
tions; and 1'resident Roosevelt,' our presi
dent and our president-to-be,' has kept his
oath to soe to It that the laws are enacted.
And by the decisions' of tbe highest courts
the republican legislation has been sus
tained and tne laws are being enforced. All
are equal before the law, both the high
and the mighty, the meek snd lowly, the
capitalist and the laborer, whose capital
Is his muscle Intelligently directed, the rich
and the poor all, all -have- equality of
opportunity before the 'law, and all, nil
must abldo by and obey the law. Our
civilisation- Is built- upon obedience to the
law. "I'y this sian we conuuer."
We enter the coming campaign with the
record of the republican party, undnr the
leadership' of Theodore Roosevelt, feeling
that we have made' progress and marked
progress nlong the line of law and order,
contemporary with the development of our
material Interests. - , '.-
Shrinkages of Wind and Water.
In addition to this.- and as a further Illus
tration of the condition of the country, let
me call your attention to the faot that the
people of the United States nowhave far
greater wealth than the people of any
other country -on earth. Capital is abun
dant, Interest rates are decreasing and cap
ital seeks investment And while the law
prohibits unlawful combinations, great
blocks of competitive private capital have
been and are being Invested in all the? In
dustries of the country.' It can be easily
foreseen that when a 'legitimate plant
comes Into competition with a plant that le
capitalised for two or three times its value
the over-capitalized plant will go to the
Wall. It is an open secret that within the
last two years the shrinkage from over
capitalisation has been many, many hun
dreds of millions of dollars. The property
Is all there now, as It was two years ago;
but the wind and the water and the gas
have disappeared, greatly to the advantage
of the people ot-.tne country. And yet on
the average,'! Bay agnln, our people aro
better employed and at a better wage, and
have been for the last twelve months, than
ever before. And '-notwithstanding - this
gre it shrinkage of . fictitious values the
millions of people throughout the. country
who live in the sweafof -their faces do hot
khow thereof, and are not affected thereby.
. Competition. Great' Trust "Buster."
The trust buster who le always "busting"
the trusts by word .but never by action
would lead the people to- believe that all
the production of the country Is-under the
direction of unlawful combinations. Be
hold how plain -a talevshall put that down.
The statistics .', carefully and honestly
gathered by th government show that
competition la after nO 4he great force that
regulates .productiowan the pi Ice.. -.If. you
take all tbe a.lleg'd,rfvst properties. . en
gaged In production, in the year J900 they
?roduced 14- per nt. svhUe the independent
actoriea produced . t ;per cent of : the fao
tory product of , the country. v It le impos
sible to permanently eorner . capital and
muscle and the raw material which nature
has prod ttqed in such -abundance. -
But why multiply 4 words? The history
of the country from 1S93 to 1897, for the four
years under Cleveland and -democracy, as
compared with what , we have today, tells
the whole story. That, of Cleveland was
marked with dlsscntlon and disaster, not
only to his party bdt to the people, and
that of McKinley and Roosevelt With har
mony and ' prosperity unparalleled.
Anarchy nnd Blossing of, Patriotism.
The last word of a republican national
convention, held at Philadelphia In the
year 1900, was overwhelmingly endorsed
by the American . people ana remarkably
successful administration of President Mc
Kinley was continued; but In the .hour of
universal peace, wht-n partisan criticism
was stilled by the Spread of prosperity,
the blight of anarchy. Imported from
Knother shore-struc k down our chief mag
istrate and brought' the ' whole world to
his bier as mourners. Universal sorrow
stopped the pulse of Industry, not In fear,
but in profound respect of the memory of
the man and the president who died breath
lrg, '"Thy will not mine be done;" for in
tlmt "hour ' a vigorous, , energetic and en
thusiastic young man : stood beside that
deathbed pledging bis life to the policies
of his predecessor. . We had confidence In
that pledge; and nobly has It been kept
The new president took up the burden of
office with caution, but not fear, for he
had the republican party behind him and
the success of its policies everywhere In
evidence. Tbe last three years of the ad
ministration have been marked by the
same success as those that preceded and
today, as in Philadelphia four years ago,
there is no division In the republican coun
cils as to the standard bearer ot the re
publican party.
The history of civilised government is
a record of peaceful administration under
established policies, not of new laws or
new interpratatlon. In the old world 4
new law or a new policy affecting the
general welfare of the people Is an event
of a generation. In this country new laws
oome more irequently. but those' of a gen
eral character rarely oftener than once
In an administration. The McKinley ad
ministration was marked by a new tariff
law -which restored prosperity, a gold
standard act which gave stability to our
currency, -the annexation of , Hawaii, a
snort ana tnumpnanc war witn bpain
Which brought freedom to Cuba and placed
Porto Rico and the Philippines under the
the Hag. 'The administration of Roosevelt
has brought to an end the cry of "Imnarlal.
Ism" with growing civil government in the
Philippines and a free and independent
government in' Cuba, the purchase of and
authorisation of the Panama canal, the ar
bitration of the coal strike and the deci
sion that trusts' are' amenable to the au
thority of law. These are some of tbe sots
of the republican party under the admin
istration 01. president rtooseveu, ana tnere
is not a responsible American' cltl
sen . who dares deny thst . they have
one and - all been - tor the gen
eral good of the whole people, and that
they are, one and all, endorsed for the
whole people. Let us make our nomina
tions in order and appeal to the people of
the country for a renewal of power to the
republican party, standing by our policies,
ready to legislate where legislation would
be productive of more good than evil from
the economic standpoint, but refusing to
legislate and lose the substance of success
in a vain effort to secure the shadow that
abldeth not and satlsfieth not either the
intellectual nor material existence.
Closes Amid Applanse.
Mr. Cannon departed at times from the
text ot bis prepared speech, but the de
partures were flashes of his keea sarcasm
or rugged humor that never failed to arouse
applause.
"Our friend, the enemy," he Said, "came
out with strong lungs as 'trust busters,'
but did anybody ever hear of them doing
any 'busting?'. That young, true roan In
Washington has ssen to It that laws are
enforced and they went out ot exlstenca
That's the difference between us and the
other peoples-one 'busts' by wind, the other
'busts' by law." And here the convention
once mare broke into loud cheers. Ills as
surance that the "man In the White
llouse"-Theodora Roosevelt would en
force the laws was the signal fur another
tribute of applause. ,'
As he uttered the words "Gnodby" at
the close of bis address the delegates rose,
cheering and waving hats, flags and band
kerchltts. The chairman paid but little
heed to the applause after one bow ss he
closed, but, returning quickly to bis sat.
sutured upon the work ef the Convention.
The band played "The Star Spangled Ban
ner." the delegates and spectators rising
There was s stay in the proceedings after
the close f Mr. Cannon'a speech, while
Mr. Root and others on the platform
crowded around the chairman to thank
him for his speech. Mr. Cannon remained
apparently oblivious to demonstration. The
bond drifted Into a medley of popular aire,
the cheering etopped and there was a
hiatus Of some momenta.- . . . '.
Msny delegates began to leave the hall
after Mr. Cannon's speech. Finally Mr.
Cannon rapped for order and called for the
report of the committee on ifiles, which
was presented by General Bingham of
Pennsylvania. 0neral Bingham, In pre
senting the report, etAted that the com
mittee had adopted the rules of the Fifty
eighth congress, when not Inconsistent with
the hilea of the convention.
Bingham Offers Snhstltnte.
Mr. Bingham offered substitute, ae fol
lows: ' . . '
That the representation from Hawaii
shall be two delegates; provldVd, that this
shall not impair the rights and privileges
of the six delegates already seated in this
convention.
'Oft this the first roll coll of the conven
tion occurred.
- Senator Foraker moved to amend the
substitute by Including in It Alaska, Ari
zona and Mew Mexico. The motion wae
not entertained,' as the roll call had been
ordered.
There waa considerable confusion on the
floor and- the chairman rapped vainly for
order.
"It's the delegates who are making the
noise,? was called out to the chairman.
"All right," responded Mr. Cannon. "I
know the delegates can have disorder as
long ' as they wish it" '
After a few states had voted, ' Illinois
announced that It was ready with thirty
four votes for the substitute.
. Ae Senator Cullom announced the vote
the band In the gallery, getting a wrong
cue from some source, commenced to play
to the great amusement of the convention.
Illinois' vote waa challenged on a misun
derstanding, and tbe delegate making the
challenge withdrew it almost immediately.
All the territories voted "no" with the
exception of Okahoma, which caat two
ayes, and Hawaii, which declined to vote
at all. The vote resulted, 47 ayes, 490 nays.
"Tbe substitute le agreed to,", shouted
the chairman. ' He then put the vote on
the adoption of the substitute and declared
the substitute adopted by a viva voce vote.
Report of Committee.
The report of the committee was then
adopted amid cheera. Benator Lodge, of
Massachusetts, ' chairman at the committee
on resolutions, proceeded to the rostrum,
the platform in bis hand.
Mr. Lodge read the report of the com
mittee on resolutions in a clear, carrying
voice that reached the remotest corner' ot
the hail, and demanded close attention.
The first applause whloh interrupted
Senator Lodge was caused by the declara
tion that the republican party had made
possible .the Panama canal. The sentence
of the platform ' declaring the party'a
stand on protection .wan appiaudud, and
the utterance on revision also caused
a handclap.
The most striking declarations of the
report were quickly recognized and 'Its
reading was punctuated with approving
ripples of handclaps.
This wae particularly emphatic on that
part of the resolutions which declared In
lavor of a reduction of the presentation in
congress and the electoral college of those
atatea where suffrage has been curtailed.
The ..names of President McKinley and
President Roosevelt were applauded, when
ever mentioned in -the platform. , ,
- Senator Lodge closed, the readlDg, of the
4mtjr4iam unld jwonsTed, ftpUMeev .-.-H J
Report Is Adopted. - -j i !-.'"
Senator Lodge moved the- adoption Of the
platform at the coticlueion of the reading.
Chairman Cannon put the question and
after a rousing vote in the affirmative de
clared the report unanimously adopted.
Chairman Cannon then advanoed to the
far end of the platform and read a dis
patch from v Washington giving the ulti
matum of Secretary Hay to the Moroccan
government, that the United Statea wanted
either Perdickrls alive or Raisoult dead.
Thls'announcement was received with wild
entbiiasm. ' The delegates with one accord
jumped t6 their feet and voiced their ap
proval vigorously.
Select Committeemen. .
The election of members of the national
republican committee was the next busi
ness In order and Chairman. Cannon expe
dited business by securing consent to omit
a roll call, in place of which the clerk
read the recommendation of the various
State delegations for this committee. ' The
Louisiana delegation secured consent to
withdraw Us recommendation until tomor
row. Honorary Vice presidents to the' conven
tion were then elected in the same manner
and while the reading of these names waa
In progress many of the spectators left
the ball. .
Senator Galllnger of New Hampshire
was recognised to preeent a resolution
authorizing the national committee to fill
vacancies in its membership. The con
vention at 1:60, on motion of Senator Kean
of New Jersey, adjourned until. 10 o'olock
tomorrow. '
Chairman Cannon arrested the band
whloh had begun to play after adjourn
ment to announce a meeting at the Audi
torium tonight, at which Senators Depew,
Dolllver and Lodge will speak,
"All are to come end you will never
have a better trinity to draw to." ahouted
Mr. Cannon amid laughter.

William A. Gordon, president of th Ex

two day in the county Jail and pay 100 in
cash for tbe unusual liberty he took In
landing a couple -of vicious blows on the
neck of -Lawyer Richard 8. Horton in
Judge Bartlett's court yestsrday. afternoon.
The blows not Only stunned Mr, Horton,
but severely Jarred the. dignity of the
court
' Mr. Gordon was in court as the defendant
in a suit brought by the Transmisslsslppl
Exposition company to recover. i-0 on a
etock subscription, his father, former Police
Judge Samuel I. Gordon, being there as hla
attorney. Mr. Horton came In as the trus
tee of the exposition, but bla case, waa
being presented by T. W. Blackburn, who
aat with him at the lawyers" table. A
Jury had heard the evidence presented by
the plaintiff. A motion by Mr. Blackburn
to Instruct ths Jury to find for the plaintiff
had Just been granted. Judge Bartlett had
left the court room for a few momenta and
while Judge Gordon waa dictating his -exceptions
to the court reporter young Gor
don walked quietly over to the lawyers',
tabls and struck Mr. Horton two atunnlng
blows Just behind the right ear. ' The dam
age to Horton' nsok was very little, but
Gordon'e thrust tors all kinds of holes in
the dignified atmosphere of the court room.
When Judge Bartlett returned to the
bench, a moment later, he Was Informed of
the disturbance, but did not realise its
aerlouaness and merely reprimanded young
Gordon. A few minutes latsr, after the
Jury had returned It verdict In accordance
with the instruction of the court, Mr.

constructive contempt of court Mr. Hor
ton, George C. Cockrell and other wit
nesses of the affair ware put on the stand
to tell the court how it happened. As the
full story waa unfolded the Judge learned
that the assault wae both vicious and un.
provoksd. Young Gordon declared that bis
eompsny had done considerable work for
the exposition end had nsver been paid
for it, and to be compelled to pay an e po
sition stock subscription under the circum
stances was too much for his temper. He
said that, hie attack on Mr. Horton wa
Impulsive. ' . ,
Judge Bsrtlett said that Gordon'e failure
to control his temper wae Inexcusable end
