NORRIS AND DAVIS ‘The Delegates Elected to the Democratic Na- tional Convention. ‘THE RESULT REACHED AFTER AN EXCITING STRUG- GLE—MESSRS. MANOGUE AND KELLY CHOSEN AS ALTERNATES — CONSIDERABLE CONFUSION CAUSED BY THE CHAIRMAN'S RULINGS. After the close of the report of the District democratic convention in ‘Tx Star of yestor- day the committee on resolutions and rules reported through their chairman, Mr. Yates. The resolutions reassert the fidelity of the dem- ocrats of the District to the principles of the party as declared in the national platform of 1888, with emphasis on that plank which pro- des for local men for local offices, that the District of Columbia should have in its govern- ment that local representation which be- peaks home rule and ix the corner stone of democratic’ government, and it is im heart and soul opposed to any dominion over our local government which is typified in force bills or any other form of legislation cal- culated to suppress government of this District by its bona fide residents. The resolutions favored the merease of the representation of the District in the national convention to six delegates and six alternates; that Congress be asked to give the District a representation in the national legislature and the electoral col- nd that the violation of the eight-hour day at the navy yard and the government print- ing office be condemned. Areport prepared by M. L Weller was in- dorsed by the committee, which recommends that the city be redistricted 40 ax to make the popuiation of the districts uniform or else give more representation to the districts as existing at present. ‘This report as well as the resolutions were adopted as a whole. NOMINATING THE DELEGATES! Then nominations for delegates and alter- nates to the Chicago convention were called for and they were made briefly, starting off with Mr. Jordan, who arose and simply said, “I nominate William Dickson.” ‘The others followed thisexample. Frank J. McQuade named Mr. Norris, Mr.Frank Morgan named Mr. Weller. Mr. Lipscomb was also nominated. But when Mr. Kilmartin arose to nominate Mr. H. E. Davis he could not refrain from making a Iittle speech. ‘The delegates, however, seemed to like the other style of nominations and they advised Mr. Kilmartin with more eny than elegance to sit down. The sturdy old democrat sad grimly that no one could put him down. The name of Davis seemed to inspire eloquence, for James F. Brown arose to second the Davis nomination and launched into cuite axpeech. Mr Thomas J. Luttrell was nominated by Mr. Hammett and thea Mr. Charles Thomp- son started in to make a speech, but some one moved that the nominations be closed. ‘The chair put this motion and declared it carried. His decision stirred up the noisest scene of the entire day. A LIVELY TIME. Delegates arose to their feet and shouted and shook their fists at the chairman. Mr. Boyle yelied out at the top of his voice that the chair was acting in an arbitrary way. He con- tinued to speak, and finally Mr. Thompson got the floor and yelled that he would vote for no man that favored Grover Cleveland. The con- vention was gradually working itself into an excited condition. In the midst of the confu- sion a motion was recognized to have the vote on closing the nominations taken by roil cull. ‘The noise and the shouting continued and the secretary's voice as he began to call the roll could not be heard, _ Finally the chair informed the convention at the top of his voice that as they would not allow the roll to be called he would hold that the motion to close the nominations had been adopted. ‘The storm of protests broke out again and the chairman was vigorously denounced. An effort was made by the sergeant-at-arms to restore quiet. but nothing succeeded until the secre- tary began the roll call on the election of dele- gates. RESULT OF THE ROLL CALL. Then the convention quicted down and the roll call resulted as follows: For Norris—Tolson. Rose, Brashears, Darling, Manogue. Maher. Offutt, Hutchins, Talbot, Cook.

The business of the convention being com- pleted the delegates who bad been shouting for Norris and Davis were gratified by the appear- ance of these gentlemen. Mr. Norris spoke first, and after thauking the conveution for the honor which had been conferred on him he ‘There are distinguiebe1 democrats of national aud world-wide repute whose names may come before the convention at Chicago, and whoever sball be there desigaated as can- didates for the high offices of President and Vice President of the republic for the ensuing v your representatives in that convention Ail ican say is that so far as it lies in our power we will see to it that we are not on the losing side and that the position and action of the District de- mocracy shall be so maintained that in the event of our nationai success our people here at home shall receive at the bands of & demo- cratic administration the weight and influence which they justly merit.” Mr. Davis made a brief but effective speech, im which he declared himself in favor of home rule and announced his firm adherence to dem- plea. tion about 5 o'clock finally ad- ——_- The Auditor's Report Confirmed.

The old quar- ters on 12th street and more recently on 15th street were anything but suited to the needs of ‘8 hospital. and good ground for congratulation was found in the fact that it had at Iast ob- tained a home adequate to its needs. ‘The new building is located xt the corner of 15th street and Ohio avenue. 't is a lar brick structure designed and equipped in the most approved style. The building stands on ® narrow point of land so that it has three fronts and big windows onall of them. ‘The opening last evening was rather in the natur of a reception, for most of the board of directors with the physicians who are connected ith the hospital were on band during the hours that the building was open to the publi for the purpose of showing visitors over the building «nd pointing out to them all the vari- | ous features that would be of general interest.

Both singers have gained in finiss since they were last heard in Washington and their sing- ing is now wellnigh pertect. Henschell’s voice, though not extremely powerful, has a deliciously sympathetic quality, which’ carries her audience with her and givés the liveliest satuwsfaction. Mr. Henschell’s rich and virile baritone is always listened to with pleasure, and in his numbers yesterday he completely captured his hearers.

A Meeting to Secure One—Contributions Be- ing Received for That Purpose. A meeting of friends of the temperance tent was held Wednesday evening atGood Templars’ Hall to plan for the purchase and furnishing of anew tent. The chairman, stating the object of the meeting, said that the old tent had been purchased by the Good Templars, and after the first year's work was placed in his charge, and that he called to his assistance a corps of temperance workers, who the ,payt two years had succeeded in accomplishing a great work for the cause. Nearly five hundred meetings had been held, over six thou- sand names enrolled on the _ pledge book. The — temperancé —_ organizations had been strengthened and a more healthy temperance sentiment pervades the commu- nity and that while the population of the Dis- trict had increased nearly 30 per cent the ad- neement of the saloon had been checked and that there were fewer saloons at present thin | atany time within the past ten years. The cost of a new substantial tent with new chairs, books, &e., would be over five hundred dollar: An effort was being made by tie Woman’ Christian Union to ruse a portion of the amount. He expressed the hope that ull friends of the cause would rally to the support of #o grand a wor!

Au appeal was made for the better enforce- ment of the anti-cigarette law, and the “de-| partment of parlimentary law” came in for its share of consideration. A brief Bible service was conducted at the noontide hour by Mr. ‘Telford of Colorado, and Miss Lewie Foss g an instructive Bible reading at 1:30. The following revolution was adopted by » rising vote: ““Kevolved, That the Woman's Christian Temperance Union, believing that the custom which prevails among many women of wearing low-necked dresses is immodest and demoraltz- iyg, aud should be condemned by ull right- minded people, therefore we earnestly appeal. to womanhood in all grades of society to from decollete dressing, feeling assured that neither their beauty nor attractiveness are thereby enhsnced among the pure minded of ther sex.” ‘There wus a large number of ludies present from various staves, who were introduced and spoke brietly. Mrs, Alden (Penay) spoke of her great interest in the work and the pleasure it gave her to be present. Rev. George W. Moore was also introduced. wap aa REMOVED TO AN ASYLUM. Mr. J. Farmer-Atkinson, Remembered Here aa a Delegate An interesting piece of news has recently reached here concerning Mr. Heury J. Farmer- Atkinson, who was an English delegate to the great ecumenical conference in this city last spring. Mr. Farmer-Atkinson was the mem- ber of parliament whose curious behavior dur- ing the sessions of the conference caused so much comment at the time. With his brilliant red necktie and his irascible manner he sought the floor on every provocation, so that he kept the more staid members of the conference | trembling for fear of what he would do next. A telegram to the Peterborough, England, Advertiser of March 12 says that a painful scene occurred at Nice on the preceding Tuesday, when Mr. Henry John Farmer-Atkinson, M. P. for Boston, Lincolushire, had to be removed from the hotel at which he had been staying for a week to the asylum. Ever since Mr. At- kinson's arrival at Nice his behavior had been, very strange, and on Monday morning he be- came violent. At an early hour he commenced street, and one or two persons who were pass- ing at the time had a narrow escape. He was | examined by one of the local doctors during the day, and upon his certificate the police were called in to take charge of him. They await the arrival of Mr. Atkinson's brother for instructions regarding the removal of the un- fortunate gentieman to England. es Inrontayr Saez or Furxtruns, Honses axp Canutaces.—Me-sre.
