CONVENTION II ALL, Denver, Col.,
July 10. The chairman 's first words
made known last night the fact that
there would he a late session. OHie
James, at the head or Kentucky's dele
gation, inquired whether the commit
too ou resolutions was ready to report.
Receiving a negative answer, he ap
pointed a commit teo to wait upon il
and aseeriaiu when it would be ready
and then declared that felicitious
speeches would be in order for a tune.
Several deoioerats of prominence deliv
ered brief addresses until James re
turned and announced that the reso
lutions committee would be unable to
report until midnight, lie then moved
that the rules be suspended in order
that the nominating speeches be re
ceived, making the proviso that the vole
on president would not be taken until
the platform could be adopted. Dunn
of Nebraska was then recognized.
Bryan Wildly Cheered.
Dunn was in excellent voice, and
his speech, aa eloquent tribute to Bryan,
thrilled the crowd. Kspeeinlly demon
strative wen the Alabama delegates,
whose action in giving way to Nebraska
on the roll call gave that state the op
portunity to urge the claims of its favor
ite son first. While the speech was
punctuated with the volleys of ap
plause, it was not until the peroration
was reached that there was a unison
in the cheering. When Dnnn reached
his climax and mentioned Bryan's name
for the first time there was a mighty
roar from the delegates and galleries.
At this signal someone in the flies re
leased a great oil painting of Itryau'
and it dropped into midair directly
over the speaker's stand.
Then pandemifnium set in and reigned
for 1 hour and 1." minutes. Delegates
doffing their coats to more readily with
stand the heat yelled like madmen,
threw their hats in the air, stamped
the floor anil in every possible way in
dicated thetir approval of the senti
ment that Bryan was the one man to
lead their party, to victory.
Five States Keep Stleiit.
So soon as the cheering settled to
one wit led roar, to the magnitude of
half a hundred steam ealiopes. the
march of the standards began. A stal
wart member of the Pennsylvania dele
gation snatched the marker of that
standard from its socket and set off
down Hie hall whh it. toward where
the Nebraska delegation wn seated.
The delegates from Wyoming grasped
the standard of her state and the exam
pie was followed until finally the ban
ners of New Vork, New Jersey, Dela
ware, Georgia and Minnesota were all
that remaiued in place. Everyum
would haw gone were itnot for the
fact that stalwart hands were guarding
them.
Delegates Were i,Mw striding about
ihe ball fn.ui every direction, waving
flags, banners and bunting, alternately
cheering for Bryan or jeering at those
who sat stolidly in ieir eats refusing
to join in the demonstration. This out
burst differed materially from that of

of Majority.
the day be font. Then the floor con
ducted the demonstration, but now the
galleries were striving 'to outdo the del
egates and alternates, and for half an
hour it seemed as though nearly every
person in the building was cheering.
One ent husiast clambered ou the rns
trinn with n beautiful little girl garbed
in pink and white cliging to Ins neck
and waved a big American flag for !
mi iih ten without apparently tiring of
his self appointed task.
For a solid hour the applause went
on uninterruptedly, and then Chairman
Clayton attempted to check it and re
store order. For a time he failed sig
nally. F.very rap of his big gavel was
a signal for renewed effort on the part
of the crowd, and he finally had to in
struct the police to clear the galleries
before he made himself heard. After
a while the cheering died down, caused
more by physical exhaustion than any
thing else. Thou I lie naming of can
didal s commenced.
Gearin's Good Impression.
Senator tiearin of Oregon got the
floor to second Brnyan's nomination
through the generosity of California,
which surrendered its place on I he roll
call. Me mnde a good impression by his
speech, the feature of which was tin
appeal for more rigid Asiatic exclusion
laws. Kx Governor Alvn Adams of Col
trad i then seconded Bryan.
W. S. Hammond of Indiana mention
ed t he first of t he rival candidates,
Governor Johnson. When he concluded
hPi candidate was cheered for 1.1 min
utes, several of the ardent Bryan advo
cates aiding t he solitary Minnesota lis
iti their effort to proe their governor's
popularity.
Judge Gray Is Named.
Deleware was called, anil former Con
gr.ssmnii L. Irving Handy placed the
name of Judge Gray before the con
vention. He had just got fairly well
starred on his speech when the com
in it tee nn resolutions made its appear-,
auce, headed by Governor Haskell of
Oklahoma, its chairman, with the draft
oi the completed document under his
firm. Handy was permitted to conclude
his speech and Haskell was then intrn
dnced.
He made a real hit n hen ho declared
i hut the committee, after a two dnvs'
tniunle. had succeeded in recognizing
all factions and drafting a document on
which eerv im-inher could agree and
uiged this fact as good reason why the
platform should be adopted unanimous
ly. Various -eel ions of the platform as
rend were cheered, especially the refer
ence to a n 1 1 i ii jit net ion , government
e-naraiit f bank dejm-.it s.
Platform Adopted.
At the conclusion of the resiling Has
ke moved the adoj.tioii of the plat
form, and tin was inrro-d mil without
1 dissi ntiug vote.
The committee and subcommittees had
ben in almost continuous session for
R't hours.
After the platform was sdtptd An
gusttis Thon.as, the playwright, made
aa eloquent address, which was thus

Father Van of the loeal Catholic

J. Lent 7. of Ohio was given slightly
