The National Republican Convention Will Meet There. ‘E 7 THE DAY The Outcome of un Exciting Contest by Delegations From Several Cities—-Much Oratory ‘- Expended Without Avall—How the Different Ballots Stbod--Jubilation of the Flour City Peapte. JUN FIXED. It took more than seven hours of oratory aud eight ballots to rettle the question, but et 11:50 o’cluck last night the republican national com- mittee announced that Minneapolis bad been chosen as the place in which the great repub- lican convention of 1892 would be heid. June 7 iw to be the opening day Wheu the advocates of the competing cities had concluded their more or less impassioned pleadings there was a reasonable degree of calmness in the demeanor of the many inter- ested men and women who occupied the Ariing- ton's best patlor, but ae soon as it became known that the committee was engaged in bal- loting a decided change became apparent. A score or more of newspaper men crowded ne tightly as possible up to the door which protected the committer, and, de- spite many disadvantages, waited for results with good-humored patience. Occasionally « member of the committee would come out or go in, but the same man never came out twice; One experience of that sort was enough. Be yond the aggregation of reporters and jourm ists was a no less eager maltitude—entbusiastic supporters of the various cities which were wup- posed to ve in the race. An hour before and every supporter of these interested towns was certain that success wne bound to come his way, but when the result of the first ballot was being watched for even a professional “spor! could not have placed a silk-hat bet All was uncertainty and fear. A few of the leading spirits imagined they had hopes, but if they ‘they were vague and expressionless. ANNOUNCING THE BALLOTS. “Here he is!” “Now, for the news!” “Let him get out!" “Give him air!” “Yell it loud!” “Shut up!” “S’pose you let bim do tho talk- ing!" “Him” was Col. Swords, und the outcry immediately followed his appearance at the committee room door with a sheet of paper in his band. As soon aw the crowd had beer. made to understand that the ballot was an informal one the colouel announced that Omaha bad 5 votes, Detroit 1, Minneapolis 13, Cincinnati 4, New fork 9, St Louis 1, San Fraucisco 8, Chattanooga 4, Pitteburg'2. Then the Min: neapolitars howled; hkewie the St. Paul- ites. In rapid succession then followed the an- nourcements of succeeding ballots, made amid moroconfusionand more tobaccosmoke than. the ladies’ parlor at the Arlington ever experienced before. The feature of the first, second, third and fourth business ballots was the steady growth of Cincinusti, and when the high-water mark of fifteen was reached there wns excensive jubilation among the Ohioars present. A good many of the trans-Missiesipp! people wore very much afraid lest a New York-Cincinnati com- Vination should upset the western plan, and they kept on wondering why Omabu, whose Diggeat vote except on the | informal ba was fixe, did not threw its yt) strength for Minneapolis. When, on the fifth ballot Minneapolis jumped to seventeen it was evident that the end was near,and io one was ry much surprised at the flour city getting twenty on the sixth, but the outsiders were a trifle astonished that the aid sbould have come from San Francisco ana New York and notfrom Omaha. There was a long wait between the sixth and seventh ballots and everybody be- came very anxious. Suddenly the door opened and a whisper reached somebody's ear, for a wild northwestern yell broke forth. it was hushed almost instantly, principally through the efforts of folks who were not from Minne- sota, and Col. Swords announced that prior to the taking of the vote San Francisco bad with- drawn from the strife. MINNEAPOLIS WINS. “Minneapolis, 29!" shouted the sergeant-at- arms; and that wasall the crowd ever beard. ‘The wildest of whoops and the most vociferous expressions of delight threatened to crack the ceilings. A few curious ones looked at Col. Swords’ tally sheet and saw that Cincinnati still held her 15 votes, but that New York had gone down to 3. MINNEAPOLIS HEADQUARTERS. The Minneapolis headquarters and the big parlor were really one, and it was into the Minneapolis room that every one endeavored to get. How so many people and so much noise got_into that one apartment nobody jows. For three or four minutes there was one continuous shout. punctuated by silk hats which careless owners flung to the ceiling or flattened against one of the walls. Of course the hats would be useless anyhow today, so the destraction went right along, and when a man didn't happen to bave any more hats of his own todistignss and throw away, why, he simply helped himself to some other man igear. ‘Chen came ademand for speeches and there were placed on acentral table, successively, Senator Washburn, who was too howrse to say much; Chief Clerk Charles W. Johnson of the United States Senate, whose hoarseness was just a trifle more marked than Senator Wash- burn’s; Senator Manderson, who was at once sorrowful for Omaba and glad for the north- west; Win. H. Eustis of Minneapolis; Ex-Se1 ator “Gui” Pierce, ina dress suit; Frank Hat- ton, A. J. Blethen of Minneapolis, James H. Stone of Detroit, George Brackett of Minne- apolis, Ex-Goy. Foraker of Ohio and others. ‘Several of the speakers made incidental r erence to Blaine. and im each instance they se- cured such a dose of applause that further o torical cffort was itapossible for a minute or so. Alla speaker had to do was to make some in- definite remark about “the white plume” and every lang in the audience would respond to the full extent of its power. One o'civck a.m. (observatory time) was in- dicated on the dials before the arsemblage lost much of its warmth, and it was several min- utes Inter before the crowd dispersed. ‘Tue Ai:nnexpolis delegation atter calling on Dir. biuine tis morning were photographed by Brady.
