Forced to Decide on New Nominee, for. Mayor;' ' STANDARD BEARER FIRST NAMED DECLINES Emersjeacr Flads Former Candidates Loth to Enter Contest Acrlam -tlon Plaa Finally Finds ' Favor. Dell O. Morgan was -nominated Friday night as the republtcsn candidate for mayor In place of Colonel Charles R. Hannan, who declined. The first Intimation that Colonel Hannan would not run was received at the Council Bluffs office of The Bee Friday afternoon at 2 o'clock, la the form of the following tel egram: "NEW YORK, March 21. To The Omaha Bee, Council .Bluffs, la.: Absolutely Im possible for me to accept nomination owing to business engagements. . ' , "CHARLES R. HANNAN." Tbe telegram was In answer to one sent to Colonel Hsncan Thursday afternoon after the convention, asking him If he would accept the nomination. Following the dis patch" received by The Omaha Bee came several others of .a liks character to friends of Colonel Hannan In this city, ' In his telegram to B. M. Sargent, member of the Board of Education,. Colonel Hannan said: "Cannot consider nomination owing to uncertainty of being at home this sum mer." The news that Colonel Hannan could not accept the nomination spread rapidly through the city and within half an hour of Its receipt the politicians gathered In knots at the street corners discussing the situa tion. That there , was something In the air was evident even to the eye of a stranger In the city. The question arose, what was to be. done under the circumstances?. Was the va cancy In the ticket thus caused, to be Oiled by the republican city central committee or should the convention be reassembled and the selection of a candidate for the head of the ticket bp. left,. VCU?. t, ; ,-: Methods Are" la Dvsbi.' The first suggestion was to call the 'con ventlon together again, but some were of ths opinion that this could not be done, as the convention on adjtfurnlng without day, Thursday afternoon, had gone out of legal existence. Chairman Brown of the cltf Can tral committee, after a consultation with several of .the. leader of 'the republican party, decided to call a meeting of ths com mittee In the. evening to flU, the vacancy, and notices to this effect were prepared. Before the notices were sent out, the serv ices of a number of leading attorneys were sought and they gave It as their opinion that the convention should be reassembled sod it was decided, to prevent any mistakes, to recall the convention and hold a meet ing of the city central committee, the latter body to appoint such candidate, to nil ths vacancy as ths convention might nominate. The nominations as mads .Thursday aft ernoon were, filed with the city 'clerk the same evening, and yesterday being the' last day, in which such nominations could be filed. It was decided to hold tbe convention at 8 o'clock In the evening. Notices to this effect were then ' served . upon esch dele gate, either by messenger or by means of tbe telephone. - , - The law provides that In tbe ' event of a candidate's declining the nomination, or dying before election, tbe . vacancy thus oc casioned may be filled by the convention, caucus meeting or primary, or other per sons making the origins) nomination or In such manner as such convention, caucus meeting or primary has previously t pro vided. If the time Is insufficient for again holding such convention, caucus meeting or primary, or In case no such previous pro visions have been made, such vacancy shall be filled by the regularly elected or.. ap pointed executive or central : committee. The city convention .Thursday failed to Instruct or empower tbe city, central com mittee to fill any vacancies that might oc cur in the ticket Wire. Palllaa- Resaaied. When it was announced that the conven tion would be reassembled, the- wire-pull ing was begun and the frleida of ths sev eral candidates who were before the' con vention Thursday started uxVjliamalgnlng anew The members of he Municipal Non partisan league swept into the breach In uppurfc ui meir vanaiaaie. o. r. nenry; business men left their places ''of "business to get out and work for ' the man of their choice, and . the nomination for mayor on the republican ticket again became the. all- absorbing topic. The names of a number of what were termed compromise candidates were brought out and discussed and Alderman Eldln H, Lougee of the Second ward was again trotted out 'as a possible dark, horse. On sll sides the action of Colonel Hannan In declining the nomination was regretted, .as his election was generally conceded.. Ths convention, when It reassembled lsst night, nominated Dell O. Morgan by accla matlon to bead ths city, ticket. In place of Colonel Charles R. Hannan. The nomina tion was brought about after nearly an hour had been consumed In caucusing, When the delegates began to assemble at the courthouse, word was received from 8. F. Henry tlfat ha declined to be a candidate any further, - and that under no clrcum stsnces would bs accept the. nomination, Some-, of his friends stvonce hastened to his residence, requesting him to reconsider, but be ststed that his decision was final. Then cams ths intimation that Alderman McDonald had retired and that Dell O Morgan was no longer a candidate. The climax was reached when It was announced that W. F. Sapp would not permit hla name to go before the convention again. Left ' Wlthoat Candidate; This left the convention without a can didate before It and the search for' a man who would accept tha nomination was- be gun. Efforts were made to Induce Dr. H. B. Jennings to accept the nomination, but he wbuld not consent. Alderman Lougee was absent from the city, end he would probably have received the nomination had It 'been possible to come to some agreement as te who would succeed him as nominee for alderman from ths Second ward. ' Party leaders asked Colonel C, Q. Saunders if he would permit bis psme to go before the convention, "but he declined. In the meantime tbe lobby became lm patient and the noise In the hall resembled that la a theater when there Is , delay Is ringing up ne .curtain, After considerable persuasion Dell Morgan consented Jo, accept ths nomination, provided It were given to- aha by acclama tion. T Than Chairman Brown: reaped for order and Attorney . Blsocfrard assumed, the gavel and read a telegram .fraov Colonel Hannan declining ths nomination. W. F. Bapp took the floor -and aald be deemed It. expedient no longer to permit . his name to go before the convention and be 1 . BJe) OoVUUSn W Bte vaivi vVH'VHUwa aa-ia oav 3 released kid daletUea from taelr ailegia to him. He placed Dell O. Morgan In nomi nation' and moved his nomination by accla mation.' The convention was willing and Mr. Morgan was accordingly nominated by acclamation and the convention adjourned. The city central committee met at the close of the convention and selected Mr. Morgan to fill the vacancy caused by Mr. Hsnnan's declination. Who the Candidate Is. Dell O. Morgan, who now heads the re- publican ticket. Is a successful business man who has spent tbe grester part of bis life In this city, coming here as a boy from New York.
