Tammanv'a aspirants were thrown Into a condition bordering on a panto today, wheu the Associated Press Bulletin announcing that W. C. Whitney deollned the nom ination for governor, was read. Sen ator Hill said: "I supposed he would deollne to accent." Lieutenant Gov ernor 8heehan said: "The eltuatfon now Is rather mixed. We wasted val uable time chasing a shadow." John D. Crlmmlns, a personal frloud of Whitney, has received a mtseage, stating that Whitney deollned for per sonal reasons. At tho headnuarters of other candidates the news caused great rejoicing. Tho Thatcher people at once began to assert that their candidate would be nominated on the first ballot. and some of the Tammany peoplo ex pressed the same belief. Senator Hill called the convention' lo order at 1:50, The committee oh coi- tested delegations deoided iu favor cf all the Witting delegations except in the case of Monroe county, for which the, representative le divided equally between two delegates, each having half a vote. When the nomlaation for "governor was taken up Delegate Reynolds, from Albany, arose and said: "Mr. Chairman, I desire from Alle ghany county to put In nomination our first and only choice David Beunett Hill." In an Instant there was u pandemon ium. Delegates were standing on obatrs, crowding aisloa.ehovlug toward the platform, yelling themselves hoarse shouting, "Hill, Hill." The senator stood pounblng his gavel, his face pale and lips shut. He hammered vigor ously, but as he did so the din In creased. "Three cheers for the next governor of our state," shouted a man In the rear, and up went ;a mighty shout. After five minutes of this re markable scene, tberp was some order restored and Hill said: "I am grateful to Democrats for thus showing their good will and their faith, but I cannot accept the nomination you offer me." The roll call then proceeded, and at the conclusion the clerk announced the entire vote for D. B. Hill. Clerk Le- forest declared Hill the nominee of the party for governor. Daniel Lock wood wm nominated or lieutenant governor. The platform Is the same aa sent In the Associated Press dispatches last night, with a plank expressing regret tht the Income tax wm passed. Immediately after nomination of the ticket Senator Hill wm asked by an Associated Press correspondent what he thought of the situation. "Oh," he replied with no little anger expressed in his face, "It Is an outrage" "It's an outrage!" Oregon Is Wet Dead. Oregon le not sleeping, neither hi W1hi, but hi alive and awake.
