KICKING TAMMANY.
Special Dirpatch to Tua BKZ.
NEW YORK , Juno 24 , 8 a. in. The
World lays the Cincinnati convention
xna.de a gre.it mistake in refusing to
* recognize Tammany hall.
" T " * ' BOT UB COT LEFT.
The Herald says , it is stated on
' what ia regarded BB good authority
that Tilden , apeaking yesterday to an
intimate friend of his own candidacy ,
aid in substance he was confident of
( be nomination nt-iha bands of the |
L Cincinnati convention , giving as his
1 reasons for this conclusion that he was a
assured of the support of 365 dele
gates. If it turns out that 365 dele
gates at any one time do vote for Til-
* rdeji , he will only need ,127 delegates
to give him the nomination.

Special D1spa.tc.bes to The Bee.
< CINCINNATI , June 24. 8 B. m.
'TJ big Hancock boom-has aroused all
[ the .opposition , and a this hour this
tjnorninga grand fight all along the
line is being made upon him. New
York has withdrawn Payne , but settled -
* * tled upon nobody. The cry of the
murderer of Mrs. Sarra'.t and regu
lar army officer is being raised against
Hancock , and a still fight goes on ,
with the sly face of Uncle Sammy
-with his barrel forever appearing
. - through the emoke of battle.
A HOT-HOLE.
Bpedtl Dispatch to The Bee.
CINCINNATI , June 24 , noon. The
weather is hot and oppressive and if
nothing else will do it , it will certainly
bring the convention to a close before
long. Human nature cannot stand it
much longer. The indicatipni point
strongly towards Hancock , towards
whom there seems to have been a
regular stampede. Illinois hai been
promised the second place foiMorrison
if they would vote for Hancock.
in
FIELD FLOORED.
One of the California delegates said
of Judge Field's chances , that , while
his friends were working very hard
for him , and they were some of the
ly
most eminent men in California , he
did not aee how the Judge could get
the nomination. He did not gee
where the votes were to come from.
Tildenwas not popular in the state or
with * its delegate * , and was not
f likely to get any of their
rotes. Hancock waa not a fa-
rite with the delegatlon.whose mem-
T > eiB differed widely in their prefer-
" 'ences , and would probably scatter their
votes to morrow morning as they did
to-day. The speaker felt a good deal
of aolkitude about Indiana. He did
. not believe Hendricks would tike a
second place , and If he wouldHake it
he did not think he could carry his own
slate , as the democrats of the a fate
would be very angry over mch an en
gagement.
GONE TO ItAXDALL.
By order of Tildon New York this
morning will vote for Randall. _ This
is done with the mtentlon.of keeping
Pennsylvania from going solid for
' Hancock , and thus breakingthelatter's
'boom.
CALLED TO ORDER.
In
The convention was called to order
at 10:30. : Immediately after prayer
Peckham , of New York , obtained the
-floor and said in behalf of his state
. .that they hid heard with great aensibi-
vlity the votes which were cast yester
day for the honored statesman of New
York , Samuel J. Tildan , but the
delegation , knowing Mr. Tilden'i
feoBfsty of purpose , had considered , hil
IeU ; cf declination final , and there *
.
* fr
tion this morning that New York *
seventy votes this morning would b
cast for Randall.
A. motion was then put and lost to
read Tilden's letter. 'Jfc was then de
cided that the convention should pro
ceed to
TAKE ANOTHER BALLOT.
Alabama , the first state on the list
gave Hancock eleven , a gain of three
California , from which Hancock got
nothing yesterday , ' gave him fire.
When Illinois -was reached every one
held their breath and eagerly bent
forward to catch the chairman's
words. As the chairman announced ,
"Illinois cists her forty-two votes for
General Hancock , " the wildest en
thusiasm and loudest cheering fol
lowed. The galleries and delegates
rose to their feet and waved hats and
handkerchiefs. Louisiana , Mafne ,
Michigan and Missouri ; wore cheered
as theycjst their votes , ijlsiouri was
lustily cheered as she cast her 28 votes
for Hancock. New York then gave
RandaU 70 votes , and got hissed for
it. Ohio , after consultation , ca t 44
votes for Thurman. Pennsylvania was
; iroa permission to retire for consult
ation. Wisconsin then changed her
vote to 20 for Hancock , and NewJer-
aey added 18 to the General's score.
A scene of indeicribablag
ENTUOSIASM AND EXCITEMENT
followed. The immense audience
rose en masse and there followed such
a waving of everything waveablesuch
a cheering and imch general wild de ;
light as never had been seen before.
The chairman all this time kept rap
ping with his gavel as if jhis life do"
pended on it , but nobody raid the
lightest attention to his * harmless
amusement , and ho continued it mo.re
vigorously than ever , doubtless giving
vent to his enthusiasm in this manner.
When at last the people bad tired
themselves out and the semblance , of
order bad been obtained , Penusylva-
nia cast her 58 votes for Hancock , and
a repetition of the enthusiastic scene
followed.
-MILL HUNTING.
Louisiana's banner , with a picture
of Hancock , waa taken to the front of
the stage and immediately the "banners
of all other states were lifted in the
air and borne to the stage , where they
were around that of Louisiana. The
cheering continued fully fifteen min-
utes. Kentucky then changed her
Tote to eighteen for Hancock , five for
Bjyard and ono for Thurman. Rhode
Island then went over the Hancock
column , and his nomination was an
accomplished fact.
;
After every ono was allowed to give.
full expression to their enthusiasm
in yells and cheers for a long time , it
was moved to make the call of states
anew. This was assented to and the
call began with one state after another ;
voting. The vote was then announced
Hancock 705 , Biyard 2. Hendrioks
30 , Tilden 1. Cheers , repeated again
and again , followed the announce
ment , and tbo band played patriotic hi
airs.

gatiod took the stand to second Han

which would insure a democratic vie-

applause , there wore numerous and
oft-repeated calls for the Tammany
chief , who finally took the platform
and said the nomination of Hancock 18
had reunited the New Yor democracy.

WOULD-B3 PRESIlJEXr-MAKING STATE.
Before the vote could bearmouujed
and , indeed , before Iho clerk could
fairly bfgin the communication the
the chairman of the WiscDnsin delega
tion said his state wished to change
its vote.
Beabee , of New York , rose to a
point < of order , but the motion to
: liange was put andcarried , by a viva
YOCO vole , and Wisconsin cast 20 rotea
Bolld for Hancock. Thus Wisconsin ,
; no state which made the original
jreak for Garfield in Chiccgo , lead off
' 11 the sauie line for the demojracy.
New Jersey wsa the next to change
and also cast her 18 votes for Han
cock , irauing his total 348.
By this time the exct.jinent was at
over heat and it was evident that the
end had come.
Bay , of Pennsylvania , went over to
: he center aisle , and whc-n the cheer-
ng had subsided ao that ha could bo
recognized by the chahman , made a
pooch from ihe top of a Boat in the
! : owa delegation in which ho raid lh.it re
'ennsylvania was proud of her moat
amotu eoldicr in the Union a.nd of
ice other famous sou in the councils
of the nation , and glad to see tbat the
national convention had come down
JQ the point when the selection of a
andidato was between these two mm. vie
t was a gratification to him to an viof
nounce that the united delegation do- of
ired to change the vote of the state
nd make it 58 solid for Hancock ,
'his brought the total Hancock vote
up to 40 . at
The excitement was intense , and it hno
was impossible to proceed. The chair non
men of a dozju delegations worp on- in
eavoring to obtain recognition in or-
ier to change the votes of their state" , wi
"he Hancock banner was brbbght to' no

ends was flanked on either side by
ha banners of the Randall associa-
ion , the Hamilton county club and
he Hendricks , and the state banners
wore brought up and waved in salute.
The cheera were something like Chi-
ago. The crowd , fortunately , was min
not big enough to make such an over miN.
whelming noise. Banners wcro waived N.h
nd not a delegate icmaincd seated.
? he umbrella and parasol delegation
vas again in force , and the floor and
galleries were white with waving
landkerchiefi. nn
The chairman hammered his deak ia
diligently but'iucffsctually , and the of
ergeant-at-arms called an extra lores
0 enable him to tcep order should it ir
over bo restored. Up made no eBbrt '

he
FIRST ENTHUSIASM OF THE CONVEN
TION.
It was'full ton minutes Jbeforo anyone iao
ono could get the fleer , end it then e
went to Peacock , who changed the
vote of his state for Hancock. Then mi
Obits of all kinds were made to bo miwi
leard by delegates from several states. wimi
Nothing could bo got at. The secre- mi
ary and tally clerks wore unable to B.Bi miB.
et vot03and nobody except members Bie
if individual delegations know at all ter ;
what any etato was coiug to do. 10
New York and Kentucky changed 10di
o Hancock , who then had 500 votes , :
eight more than necessary for the iO
nomination. iOo :
By this time the convention had be
come resolved into a ma.s of enthusi "
astic politicians who paid not the "
slightest heed to calh for order , but
shouted huzzas for the successful can
didate. The chair finally ceased to
call for silence , and announced that
more business would be proceeded ing
with until the convention was quiet , G'
and the delegates resumed their seats. > G'r
After Kentucky was reached there
VAS no accurate information of any Jc
rt. Announcements wcro notmado of
ofm
rom the deak for the reason that the m
officers did not hear the figures and : o
could not announce them. The dco- ! ; h
ates knew the resalt of the charges
efnre the pres'ding officer did , and in
bat Hancock had received what msdo dc
dcit
its necessiry two-tlirda vote. Con it
necticut and Nebraska were under ith
stood to change , and it was afterward the
earned that Virginia had given 21 of oe
ts votes for the soldier , but no one
leard all this. ly
The chairman , with the assistance
Mr. Morrison , of New York , and Tl
some others , succeeded in making an thnc
arrangement by which a motion was not
made and declared carried calling for ncm
repetition of the ballot. n
When Alabama wis called , and it
was known what the result would bo ,
hera were renewed cheers. Then the
sorgeant-at-arms refused to allow the
Alabama chairman to make hi * an

ed down , taking him at his word
Before the list of ttites had been half
called the hall was almost ailont. No
largo body of mou wai over more quie' '
than the convention was when New
York was called. Silence had becomi
intense when the announcement wa
made. It had not teen a'tagether

tary outburst of applauco. It only
lusted a moment or two , and then the
throng icmenibercd the EerReant-at

again silent.
There wai no break in the Hancock
column until Indiana was reached ,
and her 39 vet js went to Ilendricks

In Maryland Bayard retained two
of his votes.
South Carolina's vote waa an
noiiiiced by Vrado Hampton with
those words , "We wheel into the solid
column frr Haucojk , " which were re
ceived with a cheer.
The vote resulted : Hancock 705 ,
Jlnidncka 30 , Bjyard 2 and Tildeu 1 *
Indiana made an effort to change
her vote before the announcement was
inii'Jo , but TCSs not recognized by the
chair.
Tbo scene at the announcement of
the billet WOT a repotiton of the ex
eitement has characterized the pro
ccadinga during the entire diy. The
band at ono end of the hall and the
grand organ at the back of the stsge
united in a choriM of "Hail Colum

"Yankee Doodle , " the audience and
the entire convention in the mean
time standing on the seata , tables and
railirg , waving their handkerchiefs

for some 15 or 20 minutes , when Mr.
Mack , of Indiana , in behalf of his
state , proposed that the nomination
of Hancock bo made unanimous.
"We came here , " ho said , "in
stiuctcd for Gov. Hend'icks. We
know him to be honest , capible , faith
ful and able to carry Indiana , and
now when you hear from Indiana you

York and Connecticut to attend to the

There were cries of "Kelly : " "Kel

most a storm of it from the galleries.
There was , if anything , more noise
than at any time piovious , bat it was
all applause. Call after call was
made ; until at length the organ and

airs were played in wonderful unison
and the harmony was euchthat the

Mr. Kelly was then introduced to
the convention , and said :
Mr. Chairman and gentlemen of the
convention : Your chairman hos told
you that by your action of to-day in
nominating Gen. Hancock you have
united the democrats of the state ol
New York. He has told you the
truth. While myeelf and my brethren
here on the right hare been fighting
each other politically for the last five
years they no doubt will agrea with
what I am going to say. Let past
differences bo biniahed from our
midst. 1 am not going to speak to
you now of what has occurred in the
great state of New York , or what has
occurred since we came to the city of
Cincinnati. Never again shall I refer
in any political way to what has trans
pired in the past in the state in which
we live. Wo have differed simply
politically ; our personal relations
wcro never severed. Though some
times our political anxieties led
us into making passionate remarks
against each other , in our sober mo
ments , when we have time to rafiect ,
we see , like sensible men , that we
have committed an error , and are
willing to ask each other's forgiveness-
I think my friends hero upon my
right , as I stated , agree with me upon
this question , that the great state of
Now York can not be carried unless
there be a united democracy in that
state. Now that we are united , I
think it will be safe to say to this con
vention that thora can be no doubt as
to what the result will bo'in that state
in November next.
Kelly eulogized Hancock and said
that ho was a phalanx in the hearts of
the ; soldiers. Ho predicted that he
would execute the laws of the land by
Vc
civil authority , but if the mili
tary arm was needed to
quell riots or disturbance ? , no man
could ba found inoro capable of direct
ing it than Hancock. He called on
the New York democrats to organize
upon their return homo , and said that
if anyone shirked he would be looked
iiu
iiI as a traitor to the democracy.
He freely forgive the convention fur
tlti throwing out the Tammany delega
tion and thanked it for h's ' reception.
In : closing ho said :
Now lit me repeat to my friends
heao on the right from the state of
New York , let us once and for all
t take < each other by the hands and say
this ' in common , that wo have another
duty to perform than to be fighting
each other politically in our own state.
Let us unite as a band of brothers.
r1 Let us look at each other kindly and
favorably , and act together. Let me
pledge again to the convention that
; hero can be no question whatever as
; o the result.
When Kelly concluded Col. Jno R.
Fellows , of New York , was called to
the stand and said : "I wanted to
speak from my seat in order to gather
nspiration in that direction rather
than in thii. " Indicating the seat oc
cupied by Kelly on the platform.
Applause. ] Continuing he reaffirmed
hat the action of the convention had
lealod all differences and predicted
tbat New York would be swept by a
democratic tornado , and give Han
cock 50,000 majority.
As Fellows turned to leave the stand
Kelly advanced to the front of the
stage and before the entire convention
, hey shook hands heartily , standing
for several minutes side by side at the
chairman's desk. The band and or-
fan played "Auld Lang Syne" and
he multitude shouted and finally
oinod In _ the chorus , keeping time
vith hands and feet.
Susan B. Anthony presented a po-
ition in behalf of woman sufirage ask-
ug that a resolution in favor of their
'rights" be inserted in the platform.
A resolution wai presented affirming
, ho right of citizens to trial by jury ,
ho liberty of- the press and free
peocb. Referred to the committee
on resolutions.
A resolution was offered that at the
next national convention tickets of ad
mission be given delegates , alternates ,
and members of the press , but to none
others , to the end that the convention
might be , in all respects , a dolibera-
ivo body. Tabled.
An attempt was made to adjourn ,
tut finally a motion to nominate a

ried.

SAN FRANCISCO , June 25 1 a. m.
The nomination of Hancock ru-
ceived with satisfaction by the demo
crats , who say the republicans can no
longer shake the "blo'ody shirt" to
scare timid people into voting againit
the democratic party.
The Bulletin ays he ii the strong
est nominee for the democratic party ,
but ho cannot carry Pennsylvania ,
and even if he could tbat would not
jive him victory in November , The
louth has resorted to every possible
device to carry eight northern elec
toral votes , but the nomination of a
military candidate will not make the
north consent to give up the reins of
jovernment.
The Post expreises delight that the
cry of fraud has been abandoned , and
lonest minded conservatives , who sym
pathized with the democrats on the
claim that the last election had been
decided by a trick , will now tea the
ahallownosa of that pretext. Han
cock has been put forward as a politi
cal stop-gap , to bo brushed by tha
people at the ballot-box next Novem
ber. It will not bo forgotten , either ,
the part which Gen. Hancock took in
the execution of Mrs. Surratt for al
leged complicity in the assassination
of President Lihcoln. This stain ia
attached to his name and cannot be
effaced. The republicans will have
easy work next November , and should
bo grateful to the democracy for nom
inating eo weak a man.

Special Dlapatih to TheBe .
LONDON , June 24 , 1 a. m. The
the house of commons yesterday was
extraordinary. The speaker vainly
appealed to tbo house for order. In
the midst of the confusion Bradlaugh
managed to make a speech in defense
of his course. He asked the house to
be faithful to its traditions and hear
him before he was compelled to with
draw. There was no precedent , said
ho , tor the manner in which his claim
hadbeon treated , or if other some
what similar circumstances were con
sidered as precedents the decisions ar
rived at en these occasions were in his
favor.
The speaker said the question of
precedent must now be considered by
the house and again bade Mr. B. to
withdraw while the question waa
taken into consideration.
Bradlaugh then withdrew in the
lobby amid some cheers from friends.
Mr. Henry Labouohere now moved
that Mr. Bradlaugh be heard.
Mr. Walcole " suggested , as amend'
ment , that "Mr. B. be heard but only
at the bar of the house and not upon
the floor.
The motion and the amendment by
Walpole was adopted , and Mr. Brad-
laugh then being sent for , appeared at
the bar of the house , which was now
crowded. He began to make a very
classical speech. His words were well
chosen and delivery excellent , and
though laboring undar great excite
ment he restrained his passion to an
admirable degree. He set forth in
their order his reasons why the reso
lution against him should not be en
forced. He implored the house
not to be more urgent to him than to
other members who were at this mo
ment seated upon the bench ol
the house , and who were known to
entertain opinions as revolutionary
and atheistic as his own. He stood
there as a claimant for justice , and he
trusted that the house would not deny
that which he asked in the name of
justice and of his constituents. He
was willing to comply with all the
forms of the house , and he demanded
as a right his admission. He aikpd.
what tlje house was going to dowith
him ,
Sir g , Ncrl cot ? , \ity } m Ud Ui
opposition to Mr. Brad'augh's ' ad nils
aion , maintained that the commons
had already come to a conclusion on
the subject , snd that nothirg siuce had
occurred to alter its decision.
Gladstone said that while questioning
the legality of the exclusion of Brad-
laugh , he felt himself obliged to con
cur in the position taken by Sir Staf
ford Northcote.
Mr. Bradlaugh , who had continued
standing at the bar during discussion ,
said that he claimed that justice which
was given even to every criminal. He
pleaded simply for justice and caked
why he should not baee it.
BradJangh , who had then again
withdrawn , was now called and the
resolution of the house explained to
him by the speaker.
Bradlaugh then drew himself up to
his full height , and exclaimed :
"i SUALL SOT V.TrHDltiVr 1"
The excitement now rose to a fever
heat and a violent cceno was antici
pated by the speaker , who put a mc-
tion ordering Unidlaugh to withdraw ,
and it was carried by A vote of 326
against 3G.
Daring tha diThJc J3radJ8gh re
mained , ahontug denance at the bar.
A most exciting scene * now followed ,
Bradlaugh. repeating his rcfosal to
withdraw and drawing himself up in a
moat defiant manner , he proclaimed
bis right to remain in the house. Tto
sergeant at-arras , in obedience to the
command of the speaker , advanced to
remove him by force. Bradlaugh for
bade the officer to touch him. ' I sd-
mit , " cried he , "the ri ht of the ho i-
orable house to imprison one cf its
membera , but it has no right to expel
one. I will go to prison at your order ,
but I will not bo expelled. "
Sir S. Northcote now moved that
Bradlaugh be taken into custody ,
whereupon the aeneantatrnis > and
Inspector Donning , of the nie'ropoli-
tan police , arrested him by order of
the speaker. He was taken to a strong
room of the clock tower and there im
prisoned to await the further pleasure
of tha bonne. His dungeon is by no
means -unpleasant. It coniists of
well-furnished rooms , and the table of
the prisoners there confined is furnish
ed from the kitchen of the house.

honEo of commons yesterday Sir Staf

Bradlaugh , and as he had moved for
Mr. Bradlaugh'a committal for diso
beying the orders of the house , and
the authority ef the houseof commons
having been vindicated , he would
therefore move for Mr. Bradlaugh's
discharge from custody. The house ,
after a short debate , agreed to Sir
Stafford Northcoto's motion , and Mr.
Bradlaugh was then released from the
clock tower , where he had been con
fined , and shortly after , while Glad

and resumed bis old seat. Bradlaugh's
entrance caused a sensation in the
house.
