The ex-gove at the Delavan House was later astir than usual, but his foes up the slope at the Kenmore. a block away, were early moving and the morning arrivals from cut through the state were met and escorted to their headquai ters. Mr. Franklin D. Locke of Buffalo wi determined, at a morning conference, as the man to preside at the meeting of anti-Hill peo- ple at Exgle Hail this afternoon. The day opened cloudy, but happily without prospects of rain to dampen the ardor of the democratic hosts, who began to gather at an early hour. The Elmira delegation of 350 arrived at 7a.m. They found the streets too muddy for parading. Bingham- ton's 100 came on the same train. Erie county, 700 strong, and Troy, with 500, made their appearance about 9 o'clock. By that time the Tammany delegates were out in force and the streets and hotel lobbies presented a a crowded and hwvely appearance. The committee to present the protest to the democratic state committee were named this morning. and between 8 and 10 o'clock they started down the bill to Stanwix Hall, where the Tammany chiefs are quartered and where the state committee had begun its session. .

In the course of remarks Mr. member of the state committee, suid: inion is that the original purpose of the ge lemen who are now here as con ants, at their first meeting, was to Protest against calling the convention too late and that plan was changed because the convention was called too early to suit them.

He does not make any proposition whatever which could be iam R.

Mr. Grace denied this. On motion of Mr. Coekran the protest was laid on the table and the protesting delegation withdrew. CONVENTION OFFICERS. The committee adjourned after selecting the following for officers of the convention: Tempo- rary chairman, Geo. M. Beebe: permanent chairman, Gen. Daniel E. Sickles; secretaries, Charles R. Defreest, Calvin Hewson, Charles F. Dunning, James T. Lully, Wm. J. Ellis and Charles Sutherland. Tammany Hall's delegation met after the ad- journment of the state committee and ap- inted a committee, headed by Richard ‘roker, to select vice presidents and secre- taries for the convention and delegates and alternates to the national convention. This committee met and selected delegates to the national convention. Also electors at large. THE ANTI-HILL MEN. When the committee of the anti-Hill move- ment returned to the herdquarters they retired into private quarters, where the sit- uation was canvassed for definite hearings and definite action. Wm. A. Poucher of went to talk with the leaders, and there was James Shannahan, whom State Committee Chairman bie vd had displaced from the superintendency of canals to make place for his father. Mr. Shanpaban was in the conference, and there were old warriors from throughout the who earnestly declared that decisive ac- tion must taken; that the a -g must be burned and new ones built. Thus through the day the plans of the t convention opponents were in process of maturing. There was a big crowd ground the entrance to Harmanus Bleecker Hall half an hour be- fore the time fixed for the convention to assemble, but only the fortunate hold- ers of tickets were admitted The hall was not decorated except for a woodland scene on the stage and national flags around the roscenium arch and boxes. ‘The delegates Baa to struggle through the crowd and came in slowly, causing delay in cailing the convention toorder. As tho leaders appeared they were greeted with applause. ; ‘Tlie CONVENTION. ‘The convention was called to order by Chair- man Edward Murphy of the state committee at noon. The crush was tremendous. Many delegates were shut out through the anxiety of the Albany people to get in. Without for- mality the chairman introduced the temporary chairman, Judge George M. Beebe. In taking the chair as booms “ype chairman Judge Beebe made a speech referring in enlogistie terms to Senator Hill and plainly hinting at his choice as New York's presiden- tial contin. ‘The speec! originally prepared was not delivered. ” Judge Beebe's reference to David R Hill as the “leader under whom democracy has ne known disaster, dishonor or defeat,” ged state was the sentence address that warmed the blood of the delegates and shout that broke into a serics of rattling yells burst forth from eral thousand the STREET CARS NOT KUNNING, The Mayor of Indianapolis Refused Pro- tection Against Strikers, Ixpraxaroris, Ixp., Feb. 22—Not a street car is moving in Indianapolis today, and it is hardly “probable that “any will move uhtil police protection is guaranteed to the company’s employes. Mayor Sallivan still refuses to furnish police to assist in running the cars, and President Frenzel says that they cannot bo moved until such protec- tion is given. An effort was made this morn- ing at the New Jersey avenue barn to take out a horse car, but the strikers pushed it back into the ‘barn and bolted and barred the door. The company has eight barns, ench of which is guarded by from fifty to 200 strikers and sympathizers to 1y attempt to rur cars. e Central bor Union is expected to indorse the strike tonight, thus allying all the local labor unions with the Street Car Brotherhood. A compro- mise or concession by either side seems of re- ‘mote possibility. President Frenzel bas again appealed to Mayor Sullivan for police protection, to which noresponse hus been made. President Frenzel says he will next demand assistance of th sheriff and if refused will apply for an injunc- tion restraining the strikers from interferin; with the running of care. He also says he wil hold the city responsible for all damage to property. —— TRANQUILITY IN MEXICO. Reports of Any Widespread Discontent With the Government Contradicted. Cirx oF Mexico, Feb. 22.—A thorough in- vestigation along the frontier shows that there is now no danger of any uprising in Mexico.

Meeting of the Oldest Inhabitants’ Associa- tion—The Farewell Address Read. Patriotism is always foremostin the history of tho Oldest Inhabitants’ Association. They are not banded together as patriots, but at the samo time they manifest their love of country and respect for its institutions on all appro- priate oceasions. They celebrate the Fourth of July in the old:time way, by holding » public meeting, when tho Declaration of Inde- pendence is read and » patriotic oration is delivered. When the anniversary of the birth of Gen. Washingtog, comes around the association stands alone among all the organi- zations of this city in meeting together for the purpose of hearing the farewell address read and listening to an oration. This seem to be rather old-fashioned, but’ still itis inspired bya national feeling that will never be out of date. ‘THE MEETING TODAY. This morning, in accordance with the time: honored custom, the association met in their rooms in the Corcoran building and paid honor to the memory of the man who is known as the father of his country. The formal exercises were led by ® business meeting. The president, Mr. John Marbury, presided, and he’ was flanked in his official position by Dr. J. T. Ho ‘the corresponding secretary; Mr. Allison Nailor, Jr., the recording secretary; Mr. Robert Bail, ‘the treasurer, qnd Mr. Wineberger, the mar: shal, Several new members were elected, the list containing the names of John Humphrey, Jobo N. Merrill and T. F. ire. It was an- nounced that Edwin Green, jr., had given to the association copies of two old directories of tho city of Washington for, the years 1546 and 1850. "This gift was received with thanks. THE LAG 18 FLYING. For a number of years past, at these annual gatherings, Mr. William Beron has called the attention of the association to the fact that the American flag was not flying from the public school buildings. His patriotic endeavors seemed to bewithout avail, but finally public sentiment was roused to such an extent that nowit is the exception when tho national colors are not floating from the top of the school buildings. When Mr. Beron, therefore, arose today, us has been his custom for years, to minke his report he was uble to make the gratifying statement that flags were waving in the breeze from every schvol building in the District. The association ay wuded Presi- dent Marbury called attenti to the fact that Mr, Beron bad led tho way in tho agitation which had ended in such & satufactory way and he thought that the credit belonged to him. He was glad that a mombor of the asso- cintion had been successful in bringing about a patriotic and desirable result. r.

Mrs. Harrison reviewed the organization of the society in October, 1890, since which time membership of 1,200 bas been gained. She congratulated the society upon this growth and welcomed the first’ congress, hoping that the consultatiqn will strengthen and improve what has been so well begun. There have been difficulties in the organiza- tion and new obstacles have met the board at many points. These troubles at the time per- haps caused some friction and unpleasant feel- ing, but in view of the great success which has attended the labors of the society and of the more brilliant future which is before it these can be happily forgotten. “It may be in the future that other difficul- ties will arise,” said Mre. Harrison. “It would bearare society if everything should move along smoothly, and I can only commend a little patience and for a rule of action Pryor's advice to a man in the conduct toward his wife: ***Be to her faults a little blind, And to her virtues very Ii Mrs, Harrison said the society is firmly es- tablished and in good condition for continued success. “I welcome you, regents and delogates of the society, to this city and to the first congress of the Daughters of American Revolution, with the hope and desire that your conference may be one of pleasure to yoursclves, having the promise of strength and progress for the future.” ‘MRS.

The blood of the private soldier marks the claim to patriotic descent and measures the patriot's to his coun- try and to posterity as nobly as that of the gen- eral in command. Here woman has her duty. There may be difference of opinion upon pther pointe, but when we touch the love of country, love of home and love of ere woman, whether it be in trials of war or the sweet pursuits of peace, it is properly and surely to be found. ‘MRS.
