The Republican City Convention for the noms ination of a candidate for the Mayoralty was held yesterday afternoon at the headquarters, corner of Lake and Clark streets. The attend- ance of delegates and members of the party was large. Mr. Monroe Heath, a gentleman who has been recognized as the strongest man for some time, was practically the only candi~ date before the Convention. AMr. Wright re- ceived guite a complimentary vote, but Mr. Heath was virtually clected on the first ‘ballot. The other candidates, several of whom “wers not backed by a formal nonination, had but a weak showing. A disposition was evinced by several delegates to introduce business entire- ly without the province of the meet. ing. The resolution of ex-Ald. Camp- bell, to the ecffect that the city- employes’ claims should be scttled as speedily as possible, was harmless, and would be cheer- fully adopted by any gathering, irrespective of party.- Mr. Hoffman’s resolution critizising the action of the United States Court in the whisky cases was-of a different nature, and was wisely voted down. While retarning thanks for his nomination, Mr. Heath was unfortunately attacked with pal- pitation of the heart, and was unable to make any cxtended remarks. The proceedings, alto frether, were conducted_with a proper r d te the rules of order and decorum. L PRELDIINARY. The Convention was called to order shortly after 8 o'clock by Abner Taylor. Mr. Elliott Anthony was elected temporary Chairman. Col. Stephens and Jobn C. Barke: were elected Secretaries. In taking the Chair, Mr. Anthony said they had met to put in nomination & gentleman fox the chief executive place in the city. Allthe old issues; such as the beer question, had pass- ed away; the main question now was whethel we should have our affairs administered with honesty and economy. We were a cosmopolk tan city, and the man to be nominated should Dbe one who would meet the approbation of all classes. The financial condition of the city was scrious, but we were by no means bankrupt. U the proper man was el confidence would be restored and the city enter upon a new leasy of pros; cflg. * Mr. Scanlon_moved that a Committee ot three from the West Side, two from the North, and two from the South be appolnted on Cre dentials. Mr. Taylor considered such a motion was uo necessary. It would be enough to call the lisi of the délegates as published in the newspapers, anda let each delegate answer to his name. This sugeestion was acted upon. Almost the full complement responded to their names. M. Taylor moved that the temporary officert be made permanent. Carried. NOMINATIONS. Mr. Phil Hoyne moved that the Convention proceed to the nomination of candidates fo Mayor. The Ecrsona who should make the nominations should be limited to five minutes. Carried. Mr. Brentano nominated Monroe Heath, 8 geatleman of honesty and integrity, and on¢ who would reflect honor on the city. . 3r. W. H. Thompson moved that the nomk na‘.'ig]n be made unanimous. [Cries of “Nol no!” - The motion was not seconded. Mr. Gill said he would put in nomination = man who was«n out-and-out reformer, and one who held the respect of .the laboring classes,— Charles S. Crane. [Applause.] Mr. Leonard Swett nominated Mr. A. M. Wright, s gentleman who had all his life sus- tained the characterof a pure and upright man. This gentleman enjoyed the confidence of the mercantile port{on of the community, and it waz believed by his friends that if he received the nomination and was elected he would in every sense make a reputable and good Mayor. - There being no further nominations, br. Hoyne moved that an informal ballot be taken. ME. SWETT here rose and spoke as follows: I was requested to make a communication to this Convention, and 1 promised to doso. From what I know of the fecling of the Convention Iam doubtful as to whether it will be acceptable, but in discharge of my promise I am bound to make it. To-day a committee of the Democratic Tfly informaily gathered and came to me and asked me to maka astatement to the Convention. It was insub- stance that this Convention should ap) t s %ummmee !rl;z afich ward coklnonfer th the emocracy with a view to making an arrange- ment whereby a candidate ould bo. selected who would pmmlnentl‘{ r:&:esen: reform, and who would besupported by botk pastics. Istated to thegentiemenwhocame to me that, inasmuch a8 this sgr(ng we had voted for a Democrat, and inasmuch as the Republicans seemed to be; and doubtless are, in the majority in the city, T did Dot think it would be any use making that sug- gestion, unless it was with the expectation that a Republican and not a Democrat would be se- lected. They stated to me that, while they had no authority to make absolute pledgcs, they be- lieved that if the proposed committee should azree upon a Republican that the Democracy, it they were assured that he was & reform candi- date, would agreeto him. 1 therefore promised to offer the following resolution, with the idea that it might possibly adjourn this Convention for one weck, to allow the Committee to confer to see whether this arrangement can be carried out. The resolution reads: Resolzed, That for the 'gnrpflse of carrylng out in good faith the reformation of the government of the city which was hunfunud by our late epring election, and ignoring for that purpose all mere party aames and differences, this Couvention £ hereby appoint a committee’ of one {rom each ward, to be selected by the respective delegations of the several wards here present, who shall meet & similar committee to be appointed by our Demo~ cratic friends, which joint committce shall put in nomination a snitable candidate for the office of Mayor. Mr. Swett (continuing)—I desire simply to state that all must rewgfilze the fact that the men in the city who are ln favor of reform aro not exclusively of any party. [Cheers.j The first step towards strictly party nomination i3 to divide in two the forces in favor of reform. I fear that if we receive a portion of the votes of men whoare in favor of reform,and the Democrats another gamon. that a third ele- ment, greater than the reformers divided, may come'in and perpetuate the present Lorrible state of things. Now,I am aware that in 8 Presidentlal election or campaign like lhg ogz esire which- i{s approaching, there is a o the pert of party men thal there should be strict party nominations. I am aware of the fact that from a purely na. tlonal party standpoint it may be wiser to make purely party nominations for the mou: of giving to the gmy the discipline and neces- any to the final election; but I am equally well aware that, for the sake of reform, irre« spective of its bearing upon party, it is better $Batall men who are in favor of honest City Government unite lrnspect&u of political pre- dilections. [Applause and hisses.) Therefore, the plain, simple &uufion 1s, whether we prefer to hold together the forces simply in favor of reform, or whether wa aza fa favor of disband-
