The end Is precisely ns predicted for nearly a week In these dis patches. It was the field and not Blalno against the president and the Hold wns de feated by an overwhelming majority. Blus ter and braggadocio , intrigue nnd chicanery , combination of the ablest practical politi cians of prominence , the attempt at the last moment to introduce n darlc horse In the race , lill mot Ignominious emtbrow. The Harrison forces neves : faltered fi om the outset. They gained In strength In the face of opposition and finally wrested victory ' from the ( 'rasp of a coulldont eatorlo of leaders who throw over their avowed idol at the last moment In the fruitless hope of securing - curing the president' * defeat. The oud of the campaign singularly verities all the theories of the urosldnnl's supporters. It .clinches the oft made state ment that the so-called ana loudly advertised Blalno boom wns a heartless aud faithless attempt to use the name of tbo great republican leader to accomplish personal ro- vcnifo. The parading processions , the bel lowing bauds , the flaunted Jlajs and pendu lous plumes were shams and known to bo so by those who were only disturbing the po & " litical atmosphere by such moans In the hope of having discovered a now partisan rain prompter. SlcKlnloy anil Ills Hopes. The expected deluge did uot como and the McKinley ark will never reach the repub lican Mount Ararat. Ono of the most pathetic features of this bitter strugfjlo is the use made of James O. Blalno's ' name to promote political revenge to sootbo Individ ual disappointment , The great leader , dragged on oy unwlso friends und former Noncmlos , working behind conscienceless flat tery , now rounds his carper with unmerciful defeat by republican votes in a convention from which ho sought no recognition and whoso suffrages ho so recently und emphat ically declined. Ho was never a possibility , ills loudest boomers were always ready to drop him for anyone who could draw Rrcator convention strength , and before a single ballot was taken moro than half of those who had boon predicting his choice ipnommlously deserted him on the Ueld ot action. The result forever removes Mr. Blalno from the political chess board. Ho was traded fora pawn ut the out set. Hundreds of thousands of republicans will feel a sense of bitter mortification that their former loader Rbould , In bis latter days , bavo fallen Into such hands. Major McKmley's' action in permitting himself to bo used In the final attempt to defeat the president Is Inexplicable , The intrigue must bavo been Known to blm yesterday. It was openly manifested by the IIrst vote cast in the convention. It devel oped In nil Its fullness when Forakor throw tbo Ohio delegation to him. A faint dissent ivas his only answer , Not True to HIH VrlomlH. His election in Ohio wns chtclly duo to the Korkof the president's ' friends. Ho came to Minneapolis an uvowod advocate of the presi dent's ronomuiatlon with the loudly heralded Intention of taking oft Ills cant in Mr. Har rison's Interests. He ended by calmly hand ling the gavel nnd keeping silence while bis banner wns being used to rally tbo forces of the president's enemies. A bold und manly refusal to permit the use of bis name , an IndlgDunt protest against tactics which cannot but cast suspicion on his good fnltb , ' on earnest plou for political fair play , such us ho made In the Culcago convention of 18S8 , would nave put blm ou a pinnacle of popularity , and In line for further political Honors , But ho did none of thcso tilings , and wont down to defeat with poor Blalro as an unsuccessful and discredited element of n poorly planned and badly managed ploco of political Intrigue. lliirrUon'n from the Start. The convention was hcldVoll in hand by tlio Harrison farces from the start. U was maintained In control nt ibo outset against an adverse national com mil too on creden tials , There was never a moment after the permanent organization when iho president's lupjiorters. were uot certain of 100 votes morn than was needed to nominate. Their Blrucglo was only one of adhesion. Their chief light was for prompt action. Last nUhl'tt session proved that the Harrl- ten forces could neither bo cajolou nor ttatnpodod , Tbo two votes token were abso lute tent * which were moro ttian virilleu uy r the results of today , The two dctperato- chureos of opposition at midnight rolled .back from uuLroHi-u line * , , Tbo wild yclU of today , the shrieking galleries , the bowlinp of the disappointed and the demonstrations ot an oxcltea multi tude made no Impression on the phalanx on tbo floor below. Mr. Harrison was practically nominated before the ballot was half concluded and the MeKlnloy bomb shell fell , fizzled , shuttered and was ex tinguished , only to bo rolled out of the con vention halt at the finish with few caring enough to give it a passing and a parting glance. Details of tlio Final Struggle. The interest of the convention concen trated in the last day and a balf. The battle royal began at midnight last nleht. The llnal struggle consumed live hours of today. The forlorn hope lighting for delay gave up the contest on the ques tion adopting of the majority report of tbo committee on credentials iho first thing this morning and thus acquiesced In an immedi ate ballot. They were supremely conOdent that the MeKlnloy 'inovo would win , although Governor Uear of Iowa and others insisted that the agricultural northwest could never swallow McKinley as n candi date. date.Tho The nominating speeches which followed worn admirable. They all reached the high est mark. \ \ olcott's was the apothcsis of stump speaking. Cbauncoy M. Dopow's was polished , forcible , eloquent and epigram matic , The wonderful versatile Now Yorker was never moro at bis best In thought. In phrase , in action. The scones accompanying ivcro thrilling and dramatic. The galleries were uncontrollable. Women led the applause with shrill shrloks nnd r.vthtnlc boatlna ot the air with parasols. Delegates Joined the clamor which the band could not down. Evan tbo press platform Joined. When the end came , there was another cone of wild lunacy and enthusiasmfollowed > y adjournment for recess , Whltelaw Hold's nomination was the re ult of Mr. Morton's further disinclination 'or public life and a dcslro to recognize a working republican who hnd much to do with furthering the policy of the adminlstra- lon abroad for the extension of the foreign narkot , for American agricultural products. .1 was u happy chotco and wont through by acclamation. Tno ticket will commend itself to tbo con servative Interests ol Ibo country and will ; row every day from now until the election n November. Tbo Nebraska delegation today cast 15 votes for Harrison and 1 for McKinley , the solitary ono bclntr Warner of North Platte. The test vote last night upon tbo adoption of the report of the com mittee on credentials showed six Nebraska votes presumably anti-Harrison and willing to evidence it In nn indirect way. Those were John L. and E. D. Webster , Loran Clark , Warner , Scoti nnd Walker. All today voted for tbo president's ronomlnatlon except Warner , who throw bis vote away on tbo nntl-admlnlstratlon stalking horse. Immediately after the afternoon adjourn ment the Nebraska delegation mot in their licadquartors at the Nlcolot nnd selected Edward Uosewator as their ohoico for mem ber of the national committee , the vote standing 11 to G in his favor.

It was received wltb a con siderable show of satisfaction , but without any particular manifestation of surprise. If the community bad been In Its mood of lust Saturday evening or if the news had struck the city oven as late as Tuesday even ing there would have been a tremendous sensation of astonishment , but ovci- since Tuesday tbo Blalno boom has been wither ing away at tbo national capital ana the Har rUon men bavo hod the call. The only Jlf- ferccco of opinion expressed this morning in conversation was ns to whether tbo prcbl- uont would pull through or bo run elf the track by 501110 third candidate , but the odds were with Harrlion ail day , and nt 50 : ! ! o'clock the streets were full of men , the bur den of whoso conversation was ; "I told you bO. bO.Tho center of attraction today was of course thu wbito house. All tno morning the president und his band of able and faith ful lieutenants were busily occupied , as tboy have been for several dayb and nlchts past , in smiling and recclvmir communications from the seat of war , The news which they received was Raid to bo uniformly favorable. About noon inn promises wtro in vaded by a company ol newspaper correspondents and other privileged individuals who established themselves In the rooms and hallways of the upper story und awaited the fulelut tidings wllhun much composure ns they could muster. The presi dent meanwhile was in hU private oftlco sur rounded by iho members ot tils cabinet , who received every few mlnutca tbo succcstlvo telegrams from MlnneapolU and made calcu lations from them.

Tbon it seemed to the white house ppoplo ns It there would bo no cholco on the llrst ballot nnd tbero wore many specula tions and criticisms In regard to the strength displayed bv the MeKlnloy vote. After Ohio and Pennsylvania had been passed , however , the probabilities of tbo president's immediate success dawned upon tlio company and caused n flutter of pleasant anticipation in the midst of which nt exactly Gill ) , the record of the roll call was momentarily In terrupted nnd thn telegraph Instrument ticked out tbo words : "Harrison Is nom inated. " At once there was n shout nnd all these in iho room , Including tbo postmaster concrnl nnil Secretary Utiltord , rose nud made a rush fpr the president1 ! ! room. It did not tnko long to explain the cauio of the Invasion and the president , looking very hiippy but perfectly dlgnlltcd nnd jolt-con trolled , was Burrcmtmcd by the crowd of congratulating Irk-i.Us , who with uhr-ors and many other manifestations of delight shook luinds with him nnd offered him their good wishes. The scene In iho room nt this mo ment was quits picturesque nnd striking. The tall forms of Secretaries KlUIns und Husk loomed above the crowd , whllo several Indies of the president's household mingled xvlth the thronp , looking the picture ot hap- pinoss. Ono of the young ladles throw her arms around the president's neck aud kissed blm In the excess of her joy. The cabinet ofllcors came In for their share of iho general congratulation and they were nlso the center of hand shak ing groups. Amid it all the president , the calmest man In the room , stood by his desk conversing in his ordinary manner with all who approached him nnd reading occasionally telegrams which were brought In to him. After a tow minutes , in response to the evident general desire of thoao present , ho made n short speech In bis most felicitous Myl ? , which was loudly applauded. ITU ! Clone Up the It units. Soon afterwards the president retired to take .a llHlo well earned rest , nnd the cabinet oftlccrs , Commissioner Morgan , Secretary Halford and the other prominent olflciala engaged in general conversa tion tvlth iho correspondents , aud gave their views upon the sit uation nnd the prospects. They were all exceedingly cheerful , und were unanimous In their onlnlon thnt the nrcslaant would bo rc-olcctcd. Sociotarv Husk , for example , said tliere had boon a hard flcht and n good deal ot bitter feeling between the different branches ot the party but ho had no doubt that all the trouble was now ever and that the ranks would Immedi ately close up and press forward to victory. The other cabinet , ofllcors expressed thorn- solves In exactly the barno terms. The hap piest man of ttiom all was Secretary Elklnii , and ho certainly had a right to bo happy. The result of this contest is a treat triumph for him. Not only has ho displayed a romaritablo degree of po litical sagacity and ability In the manage ment of his share of the duties pertaining to the president's campaign , but ho has also foretold that result with almost absolute ac curacy In regard to all the details of the vote from first to last. His figuring has boon wonderfully close and Ills estimate on Tbura- dav nlijht tallied almost proclsely with the result as announced tills afternoon. Finally the crowd at the whlto house broke up and mingled with the crowds on the streets. The news happened to arrive at the most favorable hour for the convenience of tbo public. The departments wore all closed and the streets were * full of people on their way homo to dinner. Tlioy gathered in great numbers ' around Iho various bulletin boards , almost completely blocking up Fourthtoontti street ID front of the United Press oHlco nnd when the llnal announcement came there was loud checrlus and hats were thrown high in tbo air. 'Ibe department clerks were much pleased as was only natural. AnxlouH to. Get tlio Mows. All during the morning from the time of the assembling of the convention crowds gathered around various places In the capital whore bulletins were displayed.

During the time taken up by tbo nominating speeches the members of the house amused themselves by Ruylntr everything and every body and singing patriotic songs. CoMKrensnii'ii 12n.oy | tlio Fun. Mr. Tarsnoy of Missouri moved that the house resolve itself Into a mugwump conven tion with Air. Walkar of Massachusetts In the chair , and Mr , Williams from the same stuto as secrotary. Tbo proposi tion was received with icud laugh ter on account of the recent differ ences between these two gecllmncn as to the usa > of the word "mugwump" but amid loud applause Mr. Walker ascended to the speaker's desk and suggested that nomi nations were in order and ho would present the name of Mr. Cleveland. Somebody nskod him whom bo was fur nt Minneapolis to which ho quickly responded , "Tho man whom tbo convention nominates. " Oavo Henderson of Iowa in the back part of the hall fathered around him a half dozen or so of men wltb good voices and began singing "Marching Through Georgia1 Gen eral Henderson sitting astride a desk und using his thick walking stick as H conductor's baton. A cry then arose for "Tho Star Spangled Banner , " and Heading Clerk Houtaling was called upon to load the choir. Ho attempted to dose so , but started the song too high ana broke down amid loud laughter. Tbon Mr. Hen derson undertook the Joe himself. Just as the lust strains of the patriotic hymn were sounding through the bull a pugo rushed In with u bulletin announcing that it bad been agreed to commence balloting. At once lucre was" excitement in the hall. An im- mcnso blackboard was raised upon tbo clerk's desk In front ol the speaker's table nud members flocked Into-tho halt In greater numbers than at qnyotncr time during the day and took seats where they could con veniently see the figures ns they were posted up tbero , and tbo spuco in front of the speaker's ' desk wna crowded with a number of excited members , pages and outsiders , und Clerk Houtaling was called upon to bold himself In readiness to roaa aloud the bul letins us they were received , ItecclvliiK tlio IlulletliiK. "Horo tboy cornel" cried a man near tbo door , and while others shouted , "Clear the way , " a puce struggled through the crowd nnd handed a telegram to the reading clerk. This was repeated with each succeeding bul letin and meanwhile eager men were busy with pencil and paper figuring upon tbo re sult. Up to the tlmo that Pennsylvania's vote was reached Ibo .talk ( that Me- Kinlcy might perhaps yet secure the nomination continued , but when the Key stone state wus reported as having given 10 lor Mr. Harrison , which was 1U more than his friends bad claimed , tbo bhout arose , "That settles It , the president is rcnoml nated , " A moment or two later word came that tbls prediction bud boon fulfilled aud tbo un- nouueoninnt wus grouted with cheers , Flvo tuluutcs afterwards the ball of the house was empty , l > Uciu lnit thr Nfl\v * .

" Talking Through Ills Hut. Representative Uocitery of Missouri said : "It will bo a cold campaign and there'll bo no need of lea this summer. Mr. Blalno would have boon the next weakest candi date. I am surprised that the republican party should have nominated Harrison. I should have thought they would have avoided the dissensions which nra bound to occur In their ranks as a result of the bitterness en gendered between the Harrison and Blalno forces.

The sudden disappearance of the Blalno boom Is talked of by everybody hero tonight , and the opinion Is general that this will wind up the pollilcaij cacoor of the plumed Knight.

There is a good deaof curlotfs whispering amouri tbo politicians lontpht iconccrnlni ; the ultimata fate of Governor McKluley. Tbo part his nome played in tbo touvcntton Is ironcrally characterized as a very peculiar one. It looks to thn Washington politician as It Governor MoKInlcy had listened too kindly to the persuasions of the Blnlno mou and that ho bad allowed them to muko use of bis name for the purpose of creating a third candidacy aud Diverting thereby a number of votes from the president with the intention of transferring iho Blalno strength to McKinley ou tbo second ballot or third and thus securing bis uomlnation In the Interest of the anti-Harri son men. It is said here that If McKinley had been voted for by some of the Harrison men Instead of by the lilalno man bis position would not bo open to criticism , but as bo "was known as a Harrison man and was the candidate of tbo Harrison men lor chairman of the convention , hU action in relation to the use of his name ou ibo tlrs.t ballot looks very suspicious , and It is thought hero by most of the lending public man that ho has inflicted upon hlinsolf an injury which may prove permanent. Tbo democrats bavo all along thought that President Harrison \yould probably bo ro- nomluutcd and so they express llttlo sur prise this evening. Most of them declare that tbo president will.bo an easy man to beat on account of Iho party dissensions in which ho has been so conspicuous , provided the democrats put forth their best efforts at Chicago and in tbo subscquantcampatgn. During the cvonlngihe president received many callers , including a delegation of about 100 Indiana people residing hero.

Tbo result BENJAMIN HARRISON. of tbo contest which bus boon so stubbornly I waged for the past week remained in doubt I up to the very last stages of the ballot.

A balf dozen conferences were hold In the midnight hours by nntl-admlnlstratlon lead ers to determine what was best to be dono.
