The crowds gathered about the bulletin boards with increased interest to-day. About the time the clerks began to come out of the Treasury for lunch the crowd became quite large in front of the West- ern Union telegraph office. But few prominent politicians appeared among them.

CLEVELAND'S NOMINATION APPLAUDED BY DEMO- CKATS HERE. The announcement of Cleveland's nomination ‘Was received with a shout by the crowd about the Western Union telegraph office. Representative Ellis, of Louisiana, who stood by watching the bulletin board, said he was well pleased with the way tilings had gone off. He liked the platform and the nomination. Cleveland could certainly carry New York. Kelly's apposition would only Strengthen him, and he could poll a la inde- endent vote tian any other mai He will not lose a vote in the south,” he said, “and all Blaine’s ‘hopes in that direction are vain.” “Good! Good!” cried Representative George D. Wise, of Virginia, “The platform suits me; and eerenas is the Dest nomination they could have made.” yy aaa Herbert, of Alabama, thought the latform was admirable. "It could not, he said, be ‘tter. He said he had had some doubt of Cleveland, but after a careful examination of the elements of opposition he regarded him as the strongest man belore the convention. Senator Vest says lie kes both the nomination and the platform. He thinks there will be no ‘trouble about Cleveland’s election. He thinks he will certainly carry New York and has an excel. lent chance of carrying Massachusetts. He dis- parages the idea of Kelly’s repudiating the nomi- nation. He only kicks to increase his prestige. Colonel Wintersmith, who was sitting by, seconded all that the Senator had tw say, and both seemed immensely satistied. WHAT REPUBLICANS SAY.

Special Dispatch to Tue Evestxe Stan: CuIcaco, July 11.—The convention for the first time met this morning on sharp ume. Every dele- | gate was in hisseat andevery atom of space was occupied by spectators, ‘The pressure was simply immense, and the heat for the first time very | great. Ten thousand fans were moving in front of | asmany perspiring faces. There was every Indica- Uon of @ nomination within and without the con- vention. A huge battery of artillery was stationed on the | Jake front of the hall, ready to b h the mo- | iment a neinination’ was made. ‘The frst move Within was tie withdrawal of Randall's name by the Pennsylvania delezation, which gives Cleve- land the vot of that state. When Hendricks’ name was mentioned again by the solitary vote in the {ilnots delegation, the cheering was loud and long, and the more the chairman attempted to suppress it the louder and. longer 1 became. “It reminded one of the great demonstration for Blaine in the republican conven- Uon, for It lasted several minutes. MF. Hendrieks sat tu his seat, apparently un- moved by the yells and cueers and waving of flags and handkerchiefs ‘The band piayed “Hall to the Chief,” but it could not be heard ten feet away, and, finally ceased playing. Even after the convedtion ceased cheering it was some tme before the galle- Tes came to order, Such a scene was certainly hever Witnessed 1n a detiocratic convention before. |The Exciting s The second ballot began with excellent order. ‘The galleries were comparatively quiet, only cheer- ing the Cleveland gains. “The first gain of a whole state for Cleveland was that of Colorado, which cast 6 votes. Senator Voorhees made his way through the | dense crowd to the president's stand and withdrew the name of Mebonald for the pur- pose, he sat, of presenting, at the proper Un tua of Hendticks. Another Wild scene of excite ment followed. “Up to thls Ume tie shouting had lasted Just, one-half hour, and it was 10 minutes more before the ballot began again, PANDEMONIUM BROKEN LOOSE. Iulinols then cast an increased vote of 10 for Cleveland, which had a great effect in heading off the attempted stampede for Hendrick. It was the McDonald vote left in that delegation, but 1t was followed by another uproarious scene, lasting sev- eral seconds. Tt seemed as if a pandemontuin had broken loose. Nothing like it was ever witnessed, except the Grant demonstration in the republican convention of 1881. A delegate sald it Icoked asf “the inmates of a hundred insane asylums had been let loose in | the convention. ‘Men certainly acted as if they had lost ‘their reason. AU last the roll-call went on. When Pennsylvanta was called the delegation asked leave to retire for consultation, and 1ts 60 delegates fied out of the hall amid thecries of “Hendricks and Slocum.” When Kentucky was called Speaker Carlisle's name was withdrawn, and 15 of its votes were given to Hendricks, which created an outburst of enthu- Siasin, as did the 13 votes in Massachusetts and 13 in Minnesota for Hendricks, Bayard’s column melted steadily away as the | ballot progressed. On Uils ballot ‘THE 2 VOTRS OF THE DISTRICT OF COLUMBIA were given to Hendricks, followed by a round of cheers. ‘When Pennsslvanta came in the convention was ina profound quiet, but when she threw 42 of her Votes for Cleveland another of those wild scenes which has made the day famous broke out, The fact that Cleveland had gatned 50 more than a majority was lustily cheered. North Caro- na then changed to Cleveland | with ts |24 votes, ratsing his column to’ 487. Vir- |xginia came next’ with 23 more votes for | Clevetand, tnereasing it to overso0. Georgia struz- | gled for a hearing, and in the din gave Cleveland 22 | Votes, a gain of 13. | Struggling to Get Into the Cleveland Hanks | Hlooked now asif the whole convention was struggling to get into the Cleveland ranks. It was a long time before any one could be heard, and the president’s voice was fast giving out. Texas could be heard going over to Cleveland, but other states were shouting for recognition. ‘The Grand Hurrah for Cleveland, ‘M ssourl declared, amid the yells, for Cleveland, and then, {t being evident that he was nominated, the 14,000 people rose to thelr feet and cheered, Waved their banners, threw up their hats, and made every other possible demonstration of noise |and contusion, which was echowd back _ by the roars of the artillery on the lake shore, The District delegates changed to Cleveland before the Tesuit was aonounced. . Indiana took the platform, and this, its chatr- man said, at the request of Thomas A. ‘Hendricks, It would east its vote for Cleveland. Caitfornia moved to make 1t unanimous, and then: the convention broke into prolonged cheers. Although Cleveland had M practically nomi- nated, It was half an hour before the ballot was counted, The Hendricks Spasm. ‘There was then the calm of exhaustion that fol- towed the two hours of excitement. The only ef- | fort—it could hardly be called combination—made | today to defeat Cleveland was the Hen- dricks spasm, which exceeded everything in | the way ever witnessed in a convention; but it lacked the solid votes which were secured in Pennsylvania and North Carolina tor Cleve- land, and which silenced the Hendricks boom the mouient they were announced. In fact t can be said at the end, as it. was suld at the becinning, that the only real effective orgaulzation here was in the interest of Cleveland.
