The distinct triumph ot the day In the way of a popular ovation was that accorded to Senator HiU. and in its spontaneity and enthusiasm was one of the most notable features the convention has produced. It was accompanied, too.

by a remarkable scene when Hill earnestly protested to his friends against being placed rn nomination, and then, finding his protest in vain, when he strode to the platform and in tones which left no doubt of their sincerity, earnestly besought the convention not to make him the nominee. The proceedings yesterday moved with greater briskness than on the two preceding days, for there was none of the tedious waits for platform and committee. aspect of the vast auditorium was truly democratic whea the session began. Anticipating the close of tbe convention, the general public was admitted freely, and as a result great crowds emptied into the hall, not only filling every "available seat in the area, and aisles, but also overflowing into the arena reserved for delegates, while some more adventurous individuals scaled the iron girders and looked down from a dizzy height oa the 30,000 people packed below. The crowd practically took possession of the proceedings, and at times the chairman aud his officials so powerless to proceed that they gave up to the multitude until the various demonstrations spent themselves.

On the call for nominations Alabama yielded to Minnesota and the latter state presented its young champion of silver republicanism and democracy -Charles A. Towne. The mention of his name was the signal for a flattering demonstration in bis honor, men aud women joining in the outburst.

They pressed forward from all quarters of the halt, urging him to the convention. The face of the New- Yorker was a study, as the up-jn him from all sides.

He sat in 'he front row of delegates, with ex- Evnator Murphy on his right and Judge Van on his immediate left. A teiond away was Mr. Croker. Hill protested vociferously. Judge Van he could not refuse.

Murphy and Croker pleaded with him to obey tho will or ih" convention and accept. While the pleadings continued the call of Delaware was heard above the roar, and Delaware yielded her place to New York. At this the bulky form of Senator Uraay. the sliver tongued orator of New York, pushed the densely packed aisles up to platfcrm. There was a hush through the hall to hear what word New York had to offer.

"In behalf of the United Democracy of New York." shouted Grady, "I present as a. candidate for vice president The effect was electrical, and a tidal wave of enthusiastic approval swept over the convention. Delegates stood on their chairs and waved frantically, not in a few scattered groups, but in a solid phalanx. Flags and standards again mingled in triumphant procession, while a roar as from Niagara pulsated through the great structure. Grady stood there proudly waiting for the storm to subside." But as he waited the audience saw a strange pantomine.

They saw Hill leave the New York delegation, and push through the throng up to the platform. They could see him to appeal to Grady to withdraw, while Grady's answer was apparent from the shake of his head and his advance to the front of. the platform to continue his nominating speech. When the demonstration had subsided Grady completed his speech, placing Hill before the convention. But as he stepped from the platform me man had just been placed in nomination took his place.

The senator looked out sternly, even savagely. the shouting thousands. "When ho heard he made the acknowledgement of the honor done him. ACTS GENTLY ON THE KIDNEYS, LIVER AND BOWELS THE 5 STEM EFFECTUALLY A.G.QUYNNCO. HARDWARE.

He was frequently interrupted with enthusiastic shouts of approval, but when he left the platform the delegates were firmly convinced from his words and manner that he "was sincerely desirous of having his name withheld.

It is probably this alone which prevented a nomination by acclamation then-and there, for the tempestuous spirit manifested so much that the convention was onthe point of being carried off its feet. It was apparent soon that, -with Hill out the way, Stevenson was a strong favorite. State after state seconded his nomination--Georgia, Indiana, Virginia, Iowa, Kentucky, Illinois. Some of the devoted friends of Hill stil maintained their allegiance to him and the delegations of New Jersey, Louisiana and some others seconded his nomination. A number of favorite sons also were placed in nomination, Maryland bringing forward Governor John Walter naming James Hamilton Lewis, North Carolina nominating Col.

Julian. Carr and Ohio presenting the name of Patrick. It was after 2 o'clock when the seconding speeches, many of them wearisome, were concluded and the ballot ing began. As the roll was about to be called Mr. Lewis appeared on the platform and in a few well chosen words withdrew from the contest.

The vote was followed with intense interest, for when Alabama three for Stevenson and nineteen for Hill it looked as if a close and exciting contest was to occur. But it was soon evident that Steven son had a strong lead. At the close the-call he had votes, which, how ever, was not enough to nominate, the requisite two-thirds being 624. Hill had received 200 votes and Towne Bu beforo the annotsncemoat of the resul strong lunged delegate from Tennes see-stood on his chair and announced: "Tennessee changes her twenty-four votes from Hill to Stevenson." That started the tide irresistibly toward Stevenson. From every quarter of the hall came demands for recogni TO THE ma Preparing to Twenty Thou- md More Troops to China.

For two hours Senator former Congressmen Sbafroth of uorado aud Cheadle of Indiana and others made speeches in favor of endoi the Democratic ticket, but it was not until Towne himself appeared and appealed to the convention not to nominate him. but to concentrate their forces, that the delegates calmed down, and the his program in the slightest way.

Towne would have strengthened the ticket In the states where there Is fusion between the Democrats, Populists and Silver Republicans, but the support given Mr. Stevenson shown the convention thought Mr. Stevenson the more available man.

The choice has fallen upon one who is in every respect worthy of the position." Mr. Bryan then sent the following message to Mr. Stevenson: "Accept congratulations upon your nomination. It was a deserved recognition of party service." All through tho day telegrams of vice presidential nomination was re- congratulation poured in on the presl- ferred to the national committee. dential candidate, including one from "The Silver Republicans have made' Mr Stevenson.

jj Bryan definitely decided not to go to Kansas City yesterday after he had a conversation over the telephone with members of the national committee at Kansas City. Tho pressure to have him attend and make a speech to convention as a fitting climax was a good fight," said Mr. Towne in his speech. "They have been defeated, but it is our duty to support the ticket, nominated by the national Democratic ronventlon." He insisted that there was an issti" In the election which towers i above men, and he implored the con- i unusually strong, but Mr. Bryan has vention to look at it as he did.

He himself steadily advised against it. He begged them- to remember that Bryan i finally brought around the Democratic was jtill at the head. The platform of the Democratic party was almost identical, at least in principle, with the platform of the Silver Republican party While Mr. Towne was speaking several attempts were made to Interrupt him with questions. The convention howled down the attempts until Mr.

Towne yielded to the questions, after which he insisted that it his wish that the convention should not nominate him. The convention gave Mr. Towne most respectful consideration, while he was speaking it was evident that the convention was disposed to follow his advice and wishes, although there was some determination to nominate him Tn spite of his declination. But his arguments prevailed In the end. The national committee of the Silver Republicans organized by electing D.

SILVEniTES STEVEXSOA. Topalictx CoDBltlrrlnir tbe Itr of Similar Action. Kansas City, July protracted meeting of the conference committees ot the Democratic, Populists and Silver Republican parties was held at the Lyceum Hall last night, at which the vice presidential situation was discussed with a view to bringing about an agreement between the three parties.

The members of the Democratic committee urged the Populist and Silver Republican representatives to use their influence in urging their parties to the support of Bryan nnJ Stevenson. "The Democrats all over the country," said Commltteeman Johnson, turning to the Populists, "know that Mr. Bryan is your kind of a man. If the two parties were to unite, and factions arose, every Democrat knows that Mr. Bryan would be found with your party.

Democrats felt that the nomination of Bryan was in deference to the rnone radical reform clement of the party, and that a selection should be made for vice president to hold the conservatives. This brought about Mr. Stevenson's nomination. There never was a time that Mr. Towne had a show of success." It was fully decided to hold anoiher conference later between the Democratic committee and sub-committees from the Populists and Silver Republicans, the result to be reported to the full committee of tbe two latter parties for approval.

Krom those utterances It is inferred that Japan does nominate conditions, and that the concert of the powers is little jangled. Hecitals of further horrors in Pekin are gathered by correspondents at Shanghai, from Chinese sources especially, of the slaughter in the Chinese and Tartar city of thousands of native Christians, so that the capital reeka with carnago.

The ruthless thirst for blood is spreading In all the northern provinces, and wherever there are native Christians the scenes enacted iu the capital are reproduced in miniature. From these stories nothing further comes regarding the legation forces except a repetition that they are all dead. The correspondents aver that If tho Chinese officials in Shanghai wished to throw light on the real state of affairs in the capital they could do so, and therefore the worst reports are accepted aa true. Prince Tuan's coup d'etat is described by the Shanghai correspondent of The Dally Mail as a sequence to the grand council ot ministers at which Yung Lu advocated tbe suppression of the Boxers promptly. The dowager empress gave her whole support to Yung Lu and a scene of disorder ensued.

Prince Tuan passionately Intervened, backed by Yang Yi. The rushed from the council aud their partisans raised the cry, "Down w.th the foreigners." The effect was electrical. The eunuchs, palace officials of all sorts and most of the popular tootc up the cause of Prince Tuan am. his agents immediately put the and the dowager empress under restraint. The Chefoo correspondent of The Express, telegraphing on Thursday, says there is no longer any doubt that disaster has overtaken the Russian force of 3.000 that left Tien Tsin for Pekin on June fl.

The Russians had a full field gun complement and carried their own transport. As nothing has been heard from them for 24 days It is assumed that they have been overwhelmed. Trustworthy news is received to the effect that all the country to the northeast of Pekin Is covered with the corpses of men and harse-s of the western garnsqns. Fightmi: of a desperate character took place in the immediate neighborhood of Tien Tiin on June 30. Takti dispatches say an attack In jrrrat force is expected at any moment.
