The Maine Statesman’s Name Cheered by the New York Republicans. ‘The Syracuse convention is, so far as outward indications go, solely and entirely Jas. G. Blaine’s. The opera house fairly shook with applause aud cheers at the first mention of his | McN name and similar demonstrations in his favor were frequent throughcut yesterday. Aportrait of the Maine statesman wasconspicuous among the decorations at the morning session. At the noon recess, in order to open a passage way down to the auditortum for the people on the platform, it was removed to one of the wings, and through forgetfulness it had not been re- placed. The Kings county delegates were the first to notice its absence and soon the word went about that it was gone. Then the cr; arose all over the house, “Where is Blaine’ ” and the demand did not cease till the ° pict dous cheers. ‘The report of the committee on league work farnished occasion for a large amount of specch making, in which nothing of any gen- eral interest. was sajd, except by the colored delegates.

While everybody knew that the transfer of Minister Roustan to Madrid was a settled con- clusion several months ago, that will not soften the blow to his wide circle of friends in diplo- matic and official circles, who were hoping that his often expressed preference for Washington would result in his staying here indefinitely.

PROCEEDINGS OF THE SESSIONS IN THE ACADEMY OF MUSIC TODAY—CrTIES WORKING FOR THE NEXT CONVENTION—EARNESTNESS OF ALL THE SPEAKERS IN TRE GOOD CAUSE. The second day of the convention of the Catholic Total Abstinence Union of America was opened this morning, as was the first day, with a religious service at St. Patrick's Church. Yesterday it was the celebration ‘of s solemn high mass. Today it wase requiem mass for the repose of the souls of the deceased mem- bers of the union. The services at the church were.of a beautiful and impressive character, the music especially being very fine. Father O'Brien, state lecturer of Ohio, was the cele- brant; deacon, Father Hannegan of Philadel- phia; subdeacon, Father Cassady of New York; master. of ceremonies, Father MoGee. The music rendered was as follows: ora,” from Verat's re- quiem. Quartet and chorus.

Directly after the celebration of the mass of reqiilem the delegates proceeded to the Acad- emy of Music and at 10:30 the president, Bishop Cotter, rapped for order and opened the busi- ness session with a brief prayer. When the delegates reached the hall they found their seats occupied by handsom printed cards extolling the merits of Indian- 1 place for conventions. Indianapolis @ hard fight for the convention of the ‘Total Abstinence Union next year. On the back of the card was a list of distances from other cities, to prove that Indianapolis comes Hickey, Bisho) jam very near being the center of the universe. ‘An interested spectator of the of ‘the day was Miss cos Wi ,who occupied one of the lower boxes. Miss Willard, as ever: one knows, is the president of the National W. C. T. U., and she is present at the sessions of the Catholic Union as the fraternal delegate from the great society over which she presides 80 ably. jhe has mado many friends among her colaborers in the Catholic church by her timely and graceful speech of yesterday afternoon. THE FIRST LAYMAN TO PRESIDE. One of the prominent delegates present at the convention is Mr. Christopher J. Fay of Boston. Yesterday afternoon he presided for awhile over the proceedings of the convention. ‘This is said to be the first timea layman has ever presided over the deliberations of the na- tional union. The delegates from New Jersey, who were in- advertently omitted from the lists yesterday, are as follows: St. Patrick's Cadets, Rey. M. J. Coughlan; St. Patrick's, M. J. Quinn. Secretary Noblan, at the opening of the morning session today, read a number of com- munications from leading dignitaries of the church throughout the country who had been invited to participate in the convention, but who for various reasons were not able to be present. All the letters were filled with words of hope and inspiration, some with checks, and all wore received with applause. Mr. Fay, chairman of th> committee of the whole, reported progress and the report was adopted unanimously. Bushop Cotter announced to the convention with reference to the excursion tomorrow ten- dered to the delegates by the local society that a larger number of invitations would be issued than was at first contemplated and that the tickets would be distributed through the chair- men of the various delegations. Dr. Conaty, chairman of the committee on the temperance manual, read the report of his committee. It included a revised of the mana), which was read by chapter titles, and one or fwo points in each chapter were touc! upon in order to give an idea of the genefal racter of the manual, which is really quite an extended work on temperance, ite virtues, heredity and other matters of that sort. THE RESOLUTIONS. The chairman of the committee on resolu- tions, Father McKenna of Massachusetts, read the committee's report. The resolutions began by stating the platform of the union, recogniz- ing in the liquor curse the chiet cause of pauperism, vice and crime a lar responsible for wrecking indi- vidual liver homes and. increasing” public disorder and social troubles. Rules for ite regulation and restriction should be adopted. It commended the work of the union and pledged its ‘united efforts to help the labor organizations which recognize our platform as one of the chief helps in ameliorating the con- dition of the toiling millions, and we offer our support to candidates for public office whose public efforts shall pass restrictive legislative enactments looking to the suppression of in- temperance and the evils of the liquor traffic. “Cutholie maidens atid matrons should be appealed to in order that by their organized effort they may imitate the noble example given to the world by the Women's Christian ‘Temperance Union and co-operate with them by the annual observance of Father Mathew's inspiring anniversary.” LIQUOR AND THE WORLD'S FAIR. The report closed with the resolution “that sound public policy does not seem to sanction the sale of liquor at Chicago world’s fair, nor does it requir the existence of a traffis privi- loged to cover. this fair land with imported breweries, distilleries and saloons, and whick i ‘wrecking the homes, blight. ing high hopes, bresking hearts and grinding down ' priceless souls into the mire of unutterable wretchedness and woe; and that we return our thanks to the of Washington and the country. to the citizens of Washington and it honcrable Com- missioner, Mr. Ross, and ite Father Mathew Society, to his eminence Cardinal Gibbons, Bishop Keane, Fathers Walter and McGee for their encouragement and hospitality to the union.” ‘The resolutions gave rise to considerable debate and the qnestion of politics soon entered and was treated rather acrimoniously.
