In a cannonade , anil pounding with the
Ravel counted for no more In producing re-
miltH. With the Brewing Morm the silver
leaders became very much Incensed Acting
upon the spur of the moment. Governor
Slono of Missouri circulated a petition ask
ing the sergeant at-arms to clear the gal
leries completely. Some of the silver dele-
gatci assured him of their support , and It
looked for n while as If this remedy would
ho resorted to Different coun'fl prevailed ,
however. The governor first computed to
ft modification suggested hy ex-Senator Mar
tin of Kansas , providing for rinsing the
hall to visitors at all future sessions. I.ati r
the silver men hrcatno morn reconciled lethe
the stale of affairs and. with the first flush
of surprise and Indignation , the manifesta
tion of their 111 feeling passed off , and It
wan decided to do nothing for thu present
looking to the suppression of such demon
strations The new spirit vvns manifested
hy a remark made hy Senator Jones "I
Btipposo that vvo rnn Bit In our scats and
take It easy as long as they can jell , " ho
said , The first nianlfe-Mlatlon , as made upon
New York's vote , was generally accepted
as a personal tribute to Senator Hill lie
sat quietly In his scat vvlllle the cheering
proceeded , and appeared anxious to atlract
as little attciillon as possible He WHS
sought out , however , by mail ) frlemls and
personal admirers and congratulated upon
the demonstration. When It was suggcstol
to htm thai It might mean an effort to secure -
cure his nomination , he closed lilrf lips
tightly and declined to replj
LuniNO IN run CROWDS.
Crowds began pouring Into the Coliseum
shortly after U o'clock , but the hcuvj-c-ye-d
delegates many of whom had had an all-
night \lgll. were late In arriving A fresh
green fe-in bank crowned with bright roses
graced the edge of the platform The sun-
ahlno sifted through the. air spaces In the
vast dome and gllltcrcd among the gay
trappings. The hands kept up a fusll.ido of
lively airs , vvhllo the people bubbled up
to the entrance and melte-d away In the
scats , and the scene early became brilliant
and animated.
A few minutes before 10 o'clock the dele
gates begin to arrive. They came- with
their loins glided for the fruy. The de
velopments of Iho night put every man on
his mettle , for It meant hard lighting all
along the line The lirst of the conspicu
ous leaders to arrive was Governor Alt
gcld. Ho stalked moodily to his seal , and
Immediately became the center of a group
Nervously his le-nn fingers bought his short
brown heard , ns with Inclined head he
llsluncd lo thu latest reports of his llciiten-
anls hofoic Iho convention opened The air
wan rife with rumors , much of It hovering
about the question of a gold holt.
The arrival of the Now York delegation ,
which was still In conference on this sub
ject , was anxiously awultcd by borne of the
old dcmociutlc wai horses an ( UK the sil
ver men , but many of the radicals ex
pressed utter Indifference as to the course
of Iho gold wing.

At 10 30 a man In a tow suit , bearing a
banner of the W J Urjaii club of Ncbia.ka

lortlurn capital southward and faced the
'rlendly ' nudlcme with n round , smooth
nco. HP proceeded with n voice lll\e the
jass of a church orgnn to hurl thunderbolts
against gold and republicanism.
The Texas ex govcinors attack on the ro-
iiibllcnn platform met with hrartj syjnrath }
trom the audience S-omo of the gold men.
iov\cvpr showed openly that they were op-
losed to some ot his extreme expressions.
When ex-Governor Hngg had finished. Sen
ator White assumed the gnvel temporarily ,
while the crowd cried for Hill , Ilrjan Illack-
buin. Altgcld nnd others Delegate Money
of Mississippi moved that Senator Hlaekburn
ho rorpiested to address tne convention and
the crowd veiled Itself hearse In approval.
With proud step , the gallant Kcntucklan
mounted the stage. Ills apniauncc set the
rowd wild Ho Is one of the silver Idols

oratory was launched that he had pit ami

Thcio was no doubt where the duty of the

like a Ileiee cavaliy charge. It swept aloiiR
with volley after \olley of silver shot and
its pcrlodj were followed by volley aftoi
volley of wild shi leks of applause nnd ap
pi oval that were as fierce as the shots The
flr t tci rifle yell went up when ho said' "Let
us const ! uct n platform that neither human
nor dovlllsh Ingenuity can submit to but one
construction " the second , when ho ex
horted the convention to tell the country
'that we mean to put silver back where
It was In 187.1 , " another when he dencuncod
"the Issue of bonds In times of profound
peace , " nnd another wilder than all , when
he shouted"Christ with the lash drove
from the temole a batter sot of men than
those who for twentv jenrs have shaped the
financial policy of this countrv "
"A new day Is dawning , " he concluded
"whose effulgence marks the return of

Duilng the progress of Senator Ulnck-
burn'B speech the 15,000 pi ople In the hall
worn aroused to a high pitch of enthusiasm ,
nnd as he closed they went wild. For two
minutes they rnvcd their approval Then
they began to shout for other favorites
Loud calls for IJryan vvcro heard. Another
demonstration almost equal to the one be
stowed on Ulackburn occurred when the
chaliniiin asked if Mr Bryan was In the
hall. Thu delegates and spectators stood
on thutr feet and waved their handkerchiefs ,
but the jouug ointor from Nebraska could
not bo found. The chorus of demands for
Hill wns raised again louder than ever
While the tin moil was at Its helRht Delegate -
gate A. W Hope of Illinois pushed his vxav
dov.n to the steps of the platform and wltii
outstretched arm pointed toward Senatoi
White , clamoiIiiK foi recognition. Finally
the chairman snvv Mm and was nblo tc
hear him ciy " 1 move that Govcruor All-
gelil of Illinois address the convention , " al
though no ono twenty feet away could catcli
the purport of the demand. Senator White
bent a slmip , penetrating click with his
gavel until the convention consented to subside -

Governor Altgeld ot Illinois wns called for
Ho had many friends In Illinois and manj
enemies equally wnim and the > sprang at
the chance to voice their sentiments Tin
Illinois delegates raised an onthuslastli
cheer , which was taken up by other dele
gations and chorused by the galleries
There came an end to the upioar at Insl
and Altgelil made his voice heard.
"On behalf of the state of Illinois , I sug
gest that this convention glvo to Hon
David IS. Hill of Now York , an oppoitunltj
to address It. "
T > is stioke brought down another showei
of demands for " 11111 , Hill , Hill. "
The ehaliman made himself hcaid and
said : "Tho distinguished gentleman froir
New York who has been railed for so often
Is n member of the committee on resolution ?
and Is not here. "
Still the convention demanded Hill until
Senator Whllu was driven to cry appealing ! )
"Why will you Insist on a man who Is not
llOIB * "
Then the cry was turned to "nuBsell , "
by the eastern men , but the young Mas-
sachusntts ex-governor sat Impassively in
his chair In the first row and his friend *
gave him up
rin.illy ex-Governor Ovemmycr of Kansas
v\tts brought to the platform and appeascil
the nppetlto of the ciowd for soveial mlmitci
as ho pleaded for the "dollar of our diddles "
For another five minutes the band held them
In ( hock with stlirlng music. Then the
crle.s for Altgeld were lenowei' ' and at last
with evident reluctance , thu Illinois gou-rnoi
wns urged forvvnid to the stage. Oienl
curiosity exlstfl to sco him. Some of the
delegates crowdtd to the front of the stage ,
not because his voice was weak , KB his
clear tones reached out to the furthermost
limits of the hall , but to got n closer view
of lhr > man With great dcllbei.illon he
opened with the statement that ho did not
come here to make n speech , but to assist
In the nomination of the next president of
the United l.iles and the formulation of a
decimation of prlnrlples that would ngnln
offer hope to the party of the people Th s
opening sentiment warmed tip the audience
and soon the pale , almost hnggnrd , face nf
the Illinois governor grew flushed His
gestures rnme quick nnd vehement nnd be
fore he had proceeded far the convention
wns swnvcd ns by a cjclom by his oratory.
When he declnicd Hint hungry men nnd
children were looking to this Convention for
relief there was a great demonstration
Adroitly he worked nn to his climax lie
drclnicd the toM and blood and svviat of
the millions was being doubled by the
shrinking standard of values Thin le
paused , and , flinging his nuns out bcfoto
him , nsKod : "Will jou let them con
tinue It ? "
"No no , nevor' " raivp In thundering
chorus fiom 10,000 throats Later , refcnlng
to the great struggle against slavery , he
pointed to nn American ( Ins ; nt his back nn I
scouted the Idei of compromise "Did the

to prcscivo that flag talk of compromise ?
There could be none There can b ? none. "

conversion to fico silver was recently an
nounced , wns called to the platform nmld

for the frco silver men of New England nnd
Ills speech was by far the most striking In
cident of the day. Ho made an Impassioned
plea against sectionalism and made It in
juch forcible , clear-cut , ringing sentences
tint cvcrv one shot to the mark like a bullet
Ills fit- , ! sentence , "This Is not a sectional
convention , ' brought the silver men to their
feet like a regiment answering to the woid
of command , nnd when hu declnred that
"This Is a battle for the restoration ot the
union of the states" the shout made the roof
rattle. "This In no transfer of the seat of

approval "The fnimers of the west and

"and now wo have finally come down on

statement that the sent nf power wns to be

The ovation which followed his perora

senator , with the face of a last contuij
statesman , stepped forward to seize the

off-hand , blue grass style , said "You did

Some unsjiniKithHtic auditor In the gallerj
shouted : "SUllt up cinil nit down , " whe-reit
there seemed to be ai sympathetic attempt
lo howl Ihe speaker down. This roused the
Ire of the silver men , and one of Iho Indig
nant Louisiana delegates arose and shouted
thai If these Interruptions were continued
he should move to clear the galleries. "The
galleries are packed by the gold men , " ho
shouted. But the cries of the crowd con
tinued. At last Colonel Mai tin , the ser-
gcanl-al-arms , Interposed from the platform
and Instructed the nsslstanl sergeant-al
arms nnd Ihe police lo summarllv eject any
one who Intelrupted the pioceedlngs.
Senator McLaurin drifted Into a discus
slon of the Issue bfeforo the democrats of
Michigan , whereupon Delegate McDermott
of New Jersey-arose to a point of oidoi.
"What happened twenty years ago , " he
shouted , "has nothing to do with the merits
of Ihls conti oveisy "
The galleries cheered and waved their
handkerchiefs at this protest fiom the floor
The blood of the gold spcctatois was
aroused John P Salisbury , a member of
Iho famous old Salisbury family of Dela
ware , whose ancestry runs through all Ainct-
Ican history , pushed his way to the plat
form to protest against the majority report
Ho was elected nfi a free silver delegate , ho
said , but ho believed the sitting delegates
from Michigan were entitled lo their seata
"I prolost , " ho Bhoulcd emphatically , "that
this Is not the place to wash the dirty linen
of state factions "
After Salisbury there stepped to the front
of the platform a stalwait , mustaclied young
man with n red rose on the lapel of his
summer coat.
"Gentlemen , I am the man Ihoy say stolt
Michigan , " ho shouted In a tone that lang
to the rafters This defiant Introducllon
caught the fancy of the multitude , which
sent up a gre-al shout of laughing approval
"Name , name , " Iho galleries cried
"Sloveiison , " the } oung man yelled
His full name was Hliot G Stevenson He
Is the law partner of J'losldent Olevrhuid's
friend and ono tlmo cabinet aide , Don Dick

men w llh rounding up 100 federal ofllre
holders lo swing the Delrolt convention for
gold Defiantly ho lold the convention it
had no rlghl lo lurn out delegates ele-ute-d
by n soveielgn slate ; lhat by doing so 11
would establish a precedent that would re

were returned cries of "night > ou are ! "

who made a violent speech In favor cf scal

notorious that the Michigan convention had
been pncUel and manipulated by federal of
ficeholders
"Inn whole Infernal delegation should , In

out robbing n state of Its votes ho was ready
lo surieinlcr.
Delegate McKnlght , ono of the Michigan
silver delegates , replied to Mr. Stevenson
He snld that U wns notorious thnt the sllvei
men elected a majority of 200 to the Mich
igan convention. "As soon ns the ndmlnts-
ttntlon at Washington ascertnlncd this , " he
continued , "Mr , Ste eiiBon was hastily stgu-
moned to Washington for a conference wltb
the great chief"
"It's a lie ! " yelled Mr Stevenson , mount
ing a chair auJ facing the delegates. "The-ic
\t \ not one word of truth In the statement '
Mr. McKnlght Insisted on his statement
and piocceded to describe the methods by
which the convcnllon had been wrested from
tl cm. In conclusion , he predicted that Mich
igan would give 'j.OOO ' majority If a free
silver platform Is adopted.
WOULD 1)0 WITHOUT THEM.
The Michigan de-bate was becoming vvcarl-
uonie , so w lion Dole-gate llrucker , a smooth
faced young man from that stale- , began to
talk the delegates began to cry for a vote
Mr. lirncker defied them , declining thai
whllo ho had ahvays been a silver man , he
believed the sllvcrltcs had enough delegates
to elect a tie-e sliver piesldent on a flee
silver platform without committing highway
robbery
'llien the gold men were roused to gientoi
eii.thuslasni by Chai lea S Thomas , the Colo-
uido member of thu national committee , who
sfoKe In n similar strain , saying that If the
convention could commit a greater VMOIIR
than to nominate a candidate who did not
ropicsent the wishes of the majority , such
a wrong would bo to oveilurn the otllclallv
expressed wishes of a sovereign stntp Ml
Thomas thought that virtue which discov
ered so late that It had been outraged should
be looked upon with suspicion nnd was nt
a lors to understand bow the fiaud chnigc'l
affected only four delegates
Judge Powers ot Ulah followed. Ho did
not want any delegates bccaucu It was neces
sary to make a two-thirds majority , "for we
hove that already , " but because their cause
was Just
Senator Grady of New York , a picturesque
red-faced gentleman , with a red moustache
and wearing a rather short jacket , punctu
ated a speech for the gold dele-gates with
violent gestures , which did not avail to
secure him close attention.
Senator Grady was Just beginning to be
listened to when the thread of bib argument
was Interrupted by the flist fight of the
convention It started over In front of the
press seats , to the left of the platform ,
where a policeman , through mistaken dili
gence , pounced upon n delegnle from Illi
nois who wns nttenintlng to entPi Hie FCC-
llon allotted to the delegates. People climbed
to their chairs everywhere , and a smnll
riot seemed on hand until the chairman
pressed Hie button whch signaled the band
to piny. Senator Giady coolly paced the
platform with bis bunds In bis pockets whllo
the band played , nnd when hu could moke
himself heard icmarkcd that ho bad never
been able to speak In a convention without
starting a fight.
Ills e\lt set the convention to crying
"Vole , vote ! " once more.
Suddenly , at 7-30. the electric lights wpre
turned on and the artificial daylight Hooded
the room Electric lights bad been hung
at Intervals from the galleries behind bur-
nlshfd reflectors , which thiew the rays In
white slreams toward the pit. Several arc
lamps which depended from the lofty stool
glrdcra were also lighted. There were al
most 20 000 ncople 111 the amphitheater by
this time , and the night scene was even
more Inspiring than thai of Ihe day.
Ex-ConqreBsman Weadock of Michigan , a
sandj balrcd man with a straw-colored
moustache and Imperial , concluded the debate -
bate in behalf ot ibc mlnoilty.
DelegateO'Donnell of Colorado performed
the same office for the- majority
Just bc-foro O'Donnell began several bun
dled niand boomers came up through the
north entrance and created nn enthuslnsllc
doinonslratlon In favor of their candidate
At th.3 conclusion of O'Doniiell's speech ,
amid loud crlos of "vole , vote' ' " from the
Impatient crowds. Chairman Daniel put the
question , first , on the substitution of the
minority rcpoit for the majority ropoit
to confirm the sitting delegates In Ihclr
title to the scats. The roll was called.
The vote on the adoption of Iho mlnoilty
report recommending that the gold delegates
from Michigan be allowed to retain their

swelled Into n loar. The gold delegates
mounted their chairs and waved their hand

whistled , stamped their fee-t , Hung their
lints and turned the convention Into pnndo-
monlum The enthusiasm ro o and fell only
to rise' again like the oncoming tides of the
ocean. Up to thai lime It was the most en
thusiastic scene of the convention. Clmli-
man Danlol liled to secuio order with his
gavel , but the raps v\cio swallowed up in
the awful din as the crack of a toy pistol
would ba by Iho roar of a volley of hundred-
ton guns. The band bioko In with the

manifestly disturbed Governor Stone of
Missouri Moved hastily up to the stage to
consult dial ! man Daniel. Senator Cock-
roll worked his way aiound to w he-re sat the
Illinois delegation Others moved hither and
thither. It looked almost as If the silver
n on hnd been stricken with panic. Sud
denly Governor Altgeld got upon his chali
and faced the chairman Ills pale face was
silhouetted against the royal purple stand
ard of the Illinois delegation , and his long ,
lean arm wns extendcl loward the chairman
appenllng for recognition. The silver dele-
gales icgalned Iheli coniposuic ns they saw-
that strong , mnsterful figure towering nbovo
Iho forest of waving arms , unshaken by the
tumult around him , Gradually the storm
died away , after being icvlvcd once or twice
by a Nevv York de-legate , who shouted for
Hill. As It finally subsided It left Altgeld
still standing resolutely with his face to
the clmliman. and the sorgeant-at-nrins
standing on thu blink of thestage. . The-
dcinonstr.illon hnd lasted eighteen minutes
QUIRTING THR HACKRT.
The scrgeant-at-arms had been w Hilly
waving his arms for five minutes As the

"Tho chairman , " ho shouted , "desire's to

Senator Daniel , who had been facing thu
arena , with set lips nnd folded arms ,
stretched out his hands Ho said'
vl shall direct thu secretary to stop pro
ceedings In this convention until order Is
restored" and then sat down In his chnlr
and folded hU arms again.
Governor Altgcld bad been standing In
bis chair , with Cockroll , Mnrlln nnd Stone
sathoied about him. He jwciiiod recogni
tion by the medium of a messenger lent
to the platform , nnd then ho shouled "I

and the ehalrmnli ruled thnt the point of

The crowd overwhelmed him with their cries
It was convention mob inle. The .illvoi

The scene showed plainly the completion
