Then a whoop woulst go up and the band would play. At the end of the fourth ballot another ghost dance began among tbe delegates. It was because of the turn things had taken In favor of Bryan. Over half the delegates gut up In a body and marched around In a wild ring, waving banners, hats, flags, newspapers and umbrellas. Several pictures of Bryan were also visible.

Very shortly It was announced that Bryan had received the nomination. There Is no adjective In the dictionary that is applicable in describing tbe kind ot noise that followed.

He resented the Imputation that Mr. Sibley was a Populist was, he said, as good a Democrat as any man on the floor. As for the crltcism Mr.

Sibley had passed upon Mr. Cleveland, in the Fifty-third congress, he said a convention which had condemned the administration could not object to the criticism of Mr. Cleveland. As he mentioned the president's name some one in the gallery shouted: "Hurrah for Cleveland. The scout went down under a splutter of hisses.

The voting began amid the usual confu sion and it was developed at once that there was to be a big field of candidates. The southern states at the beginning went tor Sewall. Notwithstanding his withdrawal, It was evident that some of McLean's adherents were standing by him. He received Michigan's vote.

July 1L Probably no presidential nomination tines th war has given to the capital city a greater surprise that did that of Mr. Bryan yesterday afternoon. He had hardly been thought ot here as even a possibility, not to say probability, and to those who remember him while he congress the wonder grows as to how It ill happened. They recall his meteoric career; how he started out and made one speech on the tariff that was very much talked about as having been made by a born orator. There are only two or three members of the cabinet in town Carlisle, Smith and Wilson and neither will say a word regarding the nomination.

There are tome sanguine Penv ocrats, however, who are predicting that the Populists will nominate Bryan, and that he; will thus be elected with a sort ot wholesale sweep of the country. As his nomination seems to have been accomplished entirely by rhe southern and far western states, the southerners starling hit boom, It may be interesting to know that a free silver speech he made before a female college down In North Carolina a year or to ago Is said to have been the direct cause of his nomina tion, as it first put him In touch with th south.

Bryan did yesterday after hi nomination for president by the Democrats wat to nana to a reporter a slip contain ing the following: "To the American Peo ple: In order that I may have no ambition, but to discharge faithfully the duties of the office, I desire to announce that If elected president I shall under no circumstances be a candidate for re-election. W. J. Bryan." Then Mr. Bryan dictated the following: "I may add In explanation of thlt state ment that It was not the result of a sud den Impulse for I have had In mind the propriety of making such an announce ment ever tines I have regarded thlt nomination as a probability.

I believe It to be, a good principle. The presidency it ths highest honor that can be bestowed by thls country upon a human being and the pow er of the office la so great that there ought to be no temptation to ths man occupying ths office to us It for his own advancement My declaration Is not unprecedent ed. Mr. Cleveland, In hit first letter of ac ceptance, set forth the objections to a sec ond term In language to forcible that It cannot be surpassed. President Hayes ad vocated an amendment to the constitution making holders of the presidential offlc Ineligible for re-election, and a similar amendment wat suggested by Andrew Jackson.

I deslrs alto to express my deep appreciation for the kindness shown mt byi other candidates tnd their friends, and alto to lay that I consider my nomination It due to the peculiar circumstances which itirrotind this campaign and not to any superior merit of my own. In fact, had th convention considered who wat most deserving the honor would have fallen tip- en another.

Chlcsgo, III, July 1L The headquarters of the Wisconsin delegation at the Palmen house was the scene last evening of an exciting meeting between General Edward 8.

Bragg and Delegate Dockery of the Ninth' district General Bragg, who Is chairman of the delegation, denounced Dockery for sneaklngly taking the banner of the state from the chairman's seat after the delega-, tion had retired for consultation, and trails Ing it around the hall in the rear of a gang of Populist fanatics," and announced that he would rise in the convention to a question of personal privilege and denounce the, action. General Bragg fairly boiled with rage. When asked at to the effect of Bryan's nomination on Democratic chances In Wisconsin, he passionately exclaimed: "Bryan and silver will be buried under an adverse Gen. E. 8.

Bragg, Who Bolt the majority of 100.000 in the state of Wisconsin. I shall not support the ticket Bryan ts a Populist not a Democrat and rather than support such a ticket I'll vote and work for McKlnley.

I'm as) young in strength and vigor today as I was In I860, and l'U organize an 'Iron Brigade In Wisconsin that will help drive these) fanatics out of the Democratic party.

The methods adopted by tha silver ma jority In the convention were damnable, outrageous, and will be resented by Democrats everywhere. Bryan and silver will be burled under an avalanchs of votes. Tbey will be defeated as no candidate ever was before In the history of the American republic." BRAGG FOR GOVERNOR. Geo. Bragg told the Wisconsin delegates that be felt the pressing Importance of tha Issue and that If It was required of him he would become a candidate for governor of the gold standard men.

And if they would make him forty-five years of age he would guarantee to make a speech In every town In the state. Although Chairman Geo. W. Peck will say nothing at present it Is not Improbable that he may decline to have anything to do with the campaign if the silver men capture the convention and force the state Into line for ths national ticket MORE BOLTERS.

The program for the day includes the nominating sneeche anf the bajrotlng or vice orwldent: the namlns of committees on notification of presides' and vice president: the assemblage of du national committee to conduct the cam, paign. The same glorious weather wbtol has been with tbe convention from the start promises to rtmaln with to the finish. Although the convention crowd had th first touch of beat yesterday, yet the me cury never went above the eighties, an today It ODened in he tnwr i.

The exodus from the city has already ana wa normal quiet of hotel corridors, other political centers Is being restored. The regular trains mi, laai night and today were crowded to their ut most capacity, and most of the speclai trains which had brought marching clubs with their bands and shouters hav gom horns. Early this morning ths work of taking down th bugs portraits, lithographs aid banners bearing the portraits of Bland, Boles, Matthews and others) who figured tni the race, began, and with these went ths) flags and bunting which had added so mucin color to rhe scene. There wat a not-. ioeabls falling oft In the throngs moving toward the convention hall early In tha day, for tbe dramatic Incidents had passed.

Ths main interest of ths day centered in ths vies presidential candidate. It was felt that the leaders would reach a conclusion, before the balloting began, and that th struggle would not be prolonged. They were together until 2 o'clock this morning, going over the advisability of the various candidates, Tha south had hoped to bava ons of tu sons on the ticket and yet ths southern men -were the first to concede that. ins memories or the war wers still too potent to warrant a southern nomination. even for second place.

The names of Dan iels and Blackburn were still heard, however. Tr other candidates Included Mo-Lean of Ohio, Sibley of Pennsylvania, Williams ot Massachusecta, and Messrs. WorUilngtoD, FUh.an and William ot Illinois. Governor Mutthews ot Indiana was also enjoying another boom, this time tor second place, and tbe political and geo graphical advantage of g.vtng Indiana rec ognition, on th ticket was Industriously urged. Mr.

Bryan is carefully refraining front all active participation in ths choice of his associate on tbs ticket An effort was made last night to Induce him to attend tbe meeting of the leaders who sought to secure an agreement on the nomination. but he declined, saying it wat th duty of the delegates to settle this question without the advice which his Influence might bring. His quarters at ths Clifton house rival the convention ball as a center ot attraction tor great throngs. They besiege the entrances and corridors and keep up a continuous demonstration. The nominee it proving himself truly Democratic.

Hi shows himself frequently, has hi doori open, not Only to the leaders, but to tht crowds In general, and talks without any of the restraint which political candidates usually Impose. There is the possibility that his presence here may lead to Immedi ate action by the committee on notifica tion, so that ths formality of proceeding la a body to his home, and there exchang ing ths notification of nomination and ths candidate's acceptance, may be avoided, His speeches to the "plain people" from the, balcony ot bis hotel last night are taken to indicate tbe general lines at his campaign. The selection of ths national chairman to conduct tbe campaign will depend much on, ths wishes ot Mr. Bryan, and there has been scant opportunity for consultation since th nomination was made. While the name of Bland was foremast in ths contest the senator of Arkansas was regarded as the most likely candidate for the chairmanship, and he may yet be chosen.

His generalship was shown when he directed the tariff contest In (he senate on the pass-. age of tbe Wilson-Gorman tariff bill, and more recently In the direction of the tilvea campaign leading up to thlt convection. Ths talk of an Independent ticket It stia beard, but lacks tbe powerful infiuenc which New York, Massachusetts, Pennsylvania and other strongholds could give to It The only definite step In that direction! has been taken at a meeting attended by a number of Illinois men.

Today' Proceedings. Coliteum, Chicago, July It :15 p. m. Arthur Sewall of Maine haa been chosen as the vice-presidential nominee of the Democratic party. The result wa reached on the fifth ballot.

111., July 11. The convention was very slow In assembling this morning. Although ten o'clock was tha hour for assembling, at twenty minutes after that hour there were not more than one hundred delegates in the pit and the galleries were not half filled. The dele-bates had been worn out by the exciting muggles of the past week and public interest seemed to have culminated yesterday In the nomination of the presidential candidate. The news that John It.

McLean of Ohio was the most formidable candidate last night had finally and positively decided not to allow his name to be presented for the vice-presidential nomination, had left an open field for the second honor. The silver leaders stood about with their heads together discussing the availability of the various candidates. Ex-Congressman Ben Bhlvely of Indiana, who has recently been nominated for governor of that state, was trongly talked of by the leaders, despite the disposition of the Indiana delegation that his nomination would confuse the pro-tram In their own state, Tho fact that he was from a doubtful state in the middle v.ates greatly strengthened him. Arthur Sewall of Maine, Boles of Iowa Sibley of Pennsylvania, Ftthian of Illinois, each had. earnest advocates, and there was a warm sentimental regard for George Fred Wil liams of Massachusetts.

The leaders were disposed to look strictly to political con. sideratlon In the selection of Mr. Bryan's running mate. It was understood to be Mr. Bryan's wish that a man of wealth should not be placed on the ticket with him.

As the hands of the clock pointed out eleven o'clock. Chairman White called the convention to order. There were only about 4,000 people in the Coliseum. More than half of the gold delegates were absent. Contrary to the usual custom, the proceed.

lugs were not opened with prayer. A few ruutine announcements were made before the names of the vice-presidential candi- lates were presented. Nominations for the vice-presidency were then called for. After a motion offered by Senator Jones of Arkansas had been adopted, limiting the speeches to five mlmitea ach, J. T.

O'Sullivan, the fiery young del egate from Massachusetts who has often ittracted the eye of the convention by his utbreaka of enthusiasm, walked to the platform to place in nomination George Fred Williams of the same state. Although At. O'Sullivan was not a graceful orator. lis sentences were so well turned and ringing that they had the close attention if the convention. He referred to the mi en delegation from New York and urged the convention to prove that It had turned.

down New York's leader (referring to Hill) not because he came from the east, but because be was for gold. Mr. O'Sullivan exhorted the convention to choose a man from the Atlantic coast, that east and west might join hands on the ticket, and ended by saying: "We do not want a man with a barrel to inaugurate this peaceful revo lution, Cries of "Water, water," were shouted in choris when Mr, Marston of Louisiana, the planter who has so often appeared be fore the convention, came to the front. Mr. Marston was not in his humorous mood and said: "I assure you, gentlemen.

that I have not tasted a drop of water, Me wanted to place in nomination John R. McLean of Ohio and he said that he did so on his own authority. He assured tha convention that, although his state dele' gatlon had repudiated him (Marston) on the day before, he represented the people of Louisiana, and in conclusion paid well-worded tribute to the Cincinnati ed itor. Delegate Malone, without making a nominating speech, named James Hamll ton Lewis of Washington, J. C.

Curry of North Carolina nominated Judge Walter Clark of the supreme court of North Car olina. A man -with bright eyes and close cropped brown hair and smooth face then mounted the stage. As he turned to the audience he was recogntzed as ex-Congressman Tom Johnson, the free trade millionaire of Cleve land, and there was a cordial demonstra- tion. Mr. Johnson nominated ex-Congressman Geo.

W. Fithian of Illinois. He was list wealthy, but Mr. Johnson maintained that the cause was one ot the common people and that a rich man was not desirable. It was the cause of humanity.

If the fight was to be money against men, money would be all on the one tide. "I do not believe in free silver," said Mr. Johnson tn his frank, Impulsive way, "but I believe that this Is a great movement In the Interest of human ity, and therefore I am with you." The convention broke loose at this utterance. The nomination of a rich man, be argued, would kill tha party. Mr, Fithian was poor man but a strong pleader, and he cam froirna pivotal state.

Chicago, 111., July 1L The evidence It growing hourly that the ticket and platform adopted by the national Democratic convention is far from satisfactory to a large portion of that party. One of the most conspicuous and vehement protests against the platform of the strange Democracy which has turbulently carried on its work in Chicago during the last four days Is The Chicago Chronicle, the only straight-out English dally Democratic newspaper in the city. The Chronicle, in an editorial this morning, savagely denounces the Coliseum ticket and platform, and demands the calling ot another convention to put up a second ticket. It says there is, plenty of time to assemble such a convention that will truly represent the Democratic party, which it declares the Coliseum convention conspicuously failed to do.

According to the suggesiion of The Chronicle, this convention should assemble not later than September 1. This Democratic organ denounces the present convention at) being controlled by "revolutionary and sectional fury," and as be ng engaged in ciusade of sectional sm, disunion and repudiation." Altgeld and Tillman, whose spirit, It says, dominated the gathering, It characterizes as "gibbering malevolents." The editorial In which the western organ of Democracy demands the calling ot an- other convention is as follows "It ts neo- essary that the Democrats of the United States should call another convention. The convention held In the Coliseum at Chicago has been controlled by the foes of commerce, of labor, ot sound finance and of Democracy. It has no claim to the title 'Democratic' The duty devolves upon the Democratic leaders who have been Ignored, reviled and scoffed at by the enemies of Democracy In the Coliseum gathering to issue a call for a Democratic convention. Ample time remains for the assembling ot such a convention.

With proper concert of action among the leaders of democracy In the various states the preliminaries can be, arranged at once and the convention can be held not later than September 1, The Dem ocrats of the country have not been represented at Chicago. They have been delivered Into the hands ot their enemies. They must meet and organize against their toes. Let another convention be called." The New York Sun, for many years leading Democratic organ of the east and the special champion of Tammany Hall, which has twice given the presidency to the Democratic party, bolted when the platform was adopted, without waiting for the nomination ot the candidate for president. It an- announces Its intention of supporting McKln ley.

It was quickly followed by The Brook' lyn Eagle, an o)d and Influential regular Democratic paper, whose editor is a warm personal friend of President Cleveland and who la In cloze touch with the leading Dem; ocrats of New York and New England. The New York Times, another strong and pecu liarly able Democrat paper, also of administration sympathies, has declared its In ability to support the Chicago platform and ticket. The prevailing belief among the prominent Democrats from the east who were dele gates to this convention Is that there will be no second ticket They argue that a Democratic sound money vote cast for an inde pendent nominee Is only half a vote, and that to be fully effectual It should be cast for McKlnley direct They claim that by the secret ballot, every man for himself, It is possible for the sound money Democracy to enter such a protest against the revolution which has been brought about in their own, party as will forever put a stop to the dominance of any great party In thlt country by the silver idea. Privately many of the east ern Democrats say they not only Intend to vote for McKlnley, but to contribute their time and Influence, as well as their means to the Republican campaign fund. They talk of rolling up a majority of 300,000 for McKlnley In New York, with corresponding majorities In every other eastern state.

DEMANDS ANOTHER CONVENTION. St II. The Globe (Dem ocrat) says: "No Democrat Is bound by the Chicago denial and repudiation of Dem ocracy. No Democrat Is bound by a con vention whose Irregularities and defiance of rule and precedent were, next after Its avowal of sectionalism and the gospel of hate, Its own particular pride. Today every man whose Democracy Is graven on hit heart and stored among the ideals dearer to him than all save honor.

Is absolved from party ties." In another editorial The Globe demands the holding of another Democratic convention the nomination of a ticket MIGHT HAVE BEEN WORSE. Petersburg, July 11. The Index Ap peal (Dem.) says: "The nominee is more distinguished as the "boy orator of the Piatt" than for any achievement In statesmanship or legislation. And yet the country la to be congratulated on his nomination over the list of fanatics and extremists who con tested with him for the prize." Roanoke, July 11. The Timet (Dem.) ays: "In nominating William J.

Bryan for the presidency the Democratic convention at Chicago has decided wisely and well. A better man for the position could not have been selected. Hit name will be a tower 'of ttrength in th west and south." Danville, July 11. The Danville Reg lster tayi: "He who thought the day had passed when tkyacraplng oratory can move the multitude Is evidently In error. William, J.
