HOW SEWALL WAS NOMINATED Democratic Candidates to Be Nc- tified in New York. NATIONAL COMMITTEE MEET The nomination of Arthur Sewall’of Maine for the vice presidency by the demoeratic national convention at Chicago Saturday was announced in an extra edition of The Star. After the withdrawal of Bland’s name by Governor Stone of Missouri the Bland votes on the fourth ballot went to Sewall in large blocks, but McLean captured enough to give him, seemingly, a safe lead of 24 against 261 for Sewall. During this roll call there had been trouble in the Ohio delegation, which was polled, and showed 14 anti-McLean votes locked up by the unit rule. ‘There was also a big revolt against Gov. Altgeld’s domination in the Illinois delegation. Ex-Congressman Fithian made a fiery protest against the nomination of the Ohio editor. It was at this critical juncture that a tele- gram from John R. McLean was read by one of the Ohio delegates. The telegram stated that it was Mr. McLean's wish that he should not be balloted for. Delegate Sloan, however, after reading the telegram distinctly stated that while the telegram expressed Mr. McLean's wish, it did not ex- press the sentiment of Ohio, which, on the fifth ballot, cast her 46 votes for McLean. The telegram, however, shattered the Mc- Lean forces, and Indiana, Iowa and other states flocked intc the camp of the Maine man. Sewall’s nomination was made unani- mous before a conclusion of the roll call, amid scenes of jubilation and rejoicing, in the course of which the state standards Were paraded about the Coliseum in the wake of the colors of Nebraska and Maine. Fifth Ballot. The fifth ballot was as follows: Sewall—Alabama, 22; Arkansas, 16; Cali- fornia, 16; Colorado, 8; Delaware, 1; Florida, 8; Georgia, 26; Idaho, 6; Illinois, 48; Indiana, 30; Towa, 26; Kansas, 20; Kentucky, 26: Louisiana, 16; Maine, 12; Maryland, 9: Michigan, 28; Minnesota, 11; Missourt, Montana, 6; Nevada, 6; North Dakota, 6: Ohio, 46; Oregon, 8; Pennsylvania, 5; South Carolina, 18; South Dakota, 8; Tennessee, 24; Virginia, 24; Washington, 8; West Vir- sinia, 12; Wisconsin, 4; Wyoming, 6; Ari- zona, 6; New Mexico, 6; Oklahoma, 6; In- dian territory, 6.

Weather conditions and general forecast: The center of high pressure has drifted from the south Atlantic to the east gulf coast. A belt ot low pressure extends from the northern Rocky mountain slope to the south Pacific coast. The weather is nearly clear on the At- lantic and gulf coasts, with a moderate amount of cloudiness in the interior. Scat- tered showers are reported in North Caro- lina, Tennessee and the southwest. Showery conditions also prevail in the far northwest. During the twenty-four hours ending Sun- day morning scattered showers were re- ported in the south, while all northern dis- tricts were free from precipitation. ‘The hot wave continues unabated in the middle and north Atlantic states and the Ohio and central Mississippi valleys. Fair and hot weather will probably con- tinue in the middle and New England states and the Ohio valley through Tues- day. In the south Atlantic and the gulf states increasing cloudiness, followed by showers, is probable, without decided change in temperature.

This is the place where tae exercises were held four years ago when the committee notified Mr. Cleve- land of his nomination and heard his ac- ceptance. In view of the fact that the candidates were eo widely separated, Mr. Sewall liv- ing in Maine and Mr. Bryan in Nebraska, New York seemed to offer a convenient meeting place, both for the candidates and the many members of the notification com- mittee. Mr. Sewall also spoke briefly, expressing his readiness to enter into the campaign work whenever the committce desired it should begin. Gov. Stone of Missouri, Sen- ator Pascoe of Florida, Chairman Harrity and others urged an early and vigorous opening of the campaign, and the senti- ment now general that the eastern states should receive full attention. Several of the speakers expreased the hope that New York audiences might have an early op- portunity of hearing Mr. Bryan and judg- ing of his abilities. Populist National Committee. The following has been issued from the headquarters of the people’s party national committee: “I hereby notify the members of the cen- tral national committee of the people's OF MAINE. hospitality, and declaring Chicago eatest convention city in the world, jast proposed by Senator Blanchard of Louisiana. Cc. K. Ladd of Illinois made an unsuc- cessful attempt to secure consideration of a motion to abrogate the two-thirds rule, and Chairman White declared the conven- tion adjourned. Workmen were already among the rafters tearing down the deco- rations, and the bands played “America” while the crowds filed out. TO BE TOLD IN NEW YORK. Bryan and Sewall Will Be Notified in Madison Square Garden. Senator Jas. K. Jones of Arkansas was elected chairman of the democratic nation- al committee at Chicago Saturday night. The new chairman was called in and made @ speech, saying he was deeply sensible of the honor, and accepted the position be- cause of the interest he felt in the cause of silver. The members from the gold states did not generally attend the meeting, although there were some notable exceptions. Mr. Harrity was there, having the proxy of E. C. Well of Wisconsin. An interesting fea- ture of the meeting was the fact that the temporary organization was presided over by Mr. Harrity, a gold standard man, and Mr. S. P. Sheerin of Indiana was tempo- rary secretary. Among the gold states not represented were Maryland, Massachusetts, Minnesota, New Hampshire, New Jersey, New York and Rhode Isiand. Senator Jones was directed to select an executive committee of nine members, of which he should be chairman. He said he was too tired to make the selection that night, and was given such time as he de- sired. He was also empowered to select a temporary secretary. It is understood that the former secretary, Mr. 8S. P. Sheerin of Indiana, will be appointed, The Plan of Campaign. There was a general discussion as to the marner of conducting the campaign, the sentiment being that it should be an ag- gressive contest, and that the war should be carried into New York and New Eng- land from the outset. Mr. Bryan, the presi- dential nominee, approved a suggestion which had been made that the exercises at- party to meet in St. Louis on July 21, 1896, at 2 o'clock p.m. This will be a very im- ortant meeting, and every member should e present. H. E. TAUBENECK, “Chairman of the National Executive Com- mittee. This is the day before the populistic na- tional convention meets, and the com- mittee is called together to complete the temporary roll, select temporary officers and transact whatever other business may be necessary prior to the convention. Bimetallists’ Convention. The national convention of bimetallists will also be held on July 22, and every- where there is much interest in the result of these two meetings, in view of the out- come of the republican and democratic na- tional conventions. Only a few contests will come before the committee, and it will have ample time to dispose of them before the convention meets. Chairman Taube- neck did not know who would be selected as temporary chairman. Silver Committee Disbands. The silver committee closed its head- quarters at Chicago Saturday, and many of the members left the city for their homes. Senator Harris, who has acted as chairman of the committee, satd: “I feel that we have done a good work and done it well. When we started in a year ago, people were inclined to laugh at us, but we have done all that we have said We would do, and all that we hoped to do. Everything has worked out according to program. We have given the people a pair of silver candidates on the strongest silver Platform ever made. Having done this, and paid its bills, the silver committee feels hat !t may consistently close up the busi- ness and leave the rest for the people.” ARTHUR SEWALL. The Candidate for Vice President a Wenlthy Main Ship Owner. Arthur sewall was born in Bath, Me., No- vember 25, 1835. He is the son of the late William D. Sewall, who began shipbuilding in Bath in 1823, and was a descendant of a noted New England family. Prominent in public affairs from the earliest days, this family has produced many conspicuous men. Arthur Sewall was educated in the INDEX TO ADVERTISEMENTS. AMUSEMENTS. ATTORNE! AUCTION SALES. BOARDING BUSINESS CHANCES. Page CITY ITEMS. Page 1 COMMISSIONERS OF DEEDS. COUNTRY BOARD......

Having mastered the mysteries of mari- time architecture, he formed a partnership in 1864 with his brother Edward, under the firm name of E. & A, Sewall, shipbuilders and commission agents. The youthful part- ners were exceedingly successful. They built ships on their own account and em- ployed them in the general freighting trade. When the firm was dissolved in 1879 by the death of the senior partner it had built forty-six excellent vessels. Arthur Sewall continued in the business, admitting his son, Willlam D. Sewall, and his nephew, Samuel S. Sewall, to partnership, under the firm name of Arthur Sewall & Co. This firm is well known not only for the excel- lence but for the size of its ships. Mr. Sewall is a progressive man, and he has had the good fortune to maintain his flee: and increase its carrying capacity, while other shipbuilding houses were retiring from the sea. Three of his most famous vessels have been the Rappahannock, which was burned at sea; the Susquehan- na and the Roanoke, all three of them four- masted vessels, and among the largest sall- ing ships produced in America since the days of the great Republic. The Sewalls are now the largest managers and probably the largest owners of sailing tonnage in the United States. The latest enterprise has been the creation of a plant for the building of tron vessels, and the iron ship Dirigo, of 3,000 tons, was launched from their yard in 1804, the first of its class ever constructed in New England, the owners say, and it 1s probably the fact that no stancher one was ever built. Mr. Sewall has been enabled to make a number of investigations in other lines of enterprise. A director in the Maine Central railroad since 1875, and president of the road froin 1884 to 1993, he has also been president of the Portland, Mount Desert and Machias Steamboat Company, and of the Eastern railroad, as well as a director in the Mexican Central railway, the Bos- ton and Maine railroad, the New York and New England railroad, the Portland and Rochester railroad, and’ in some of the lines of the Atchison, Topeka and Santa Fe sys- tem.

SOME ACCEPT THE RESULT Platform and the Leading Candi- date Denounced. TALK OF A NEW PARTY It is not an easy matter to keep record of the democratic newspapers that are an- nouncing their disapproval of the platform and candidates at Chicago, and declaring themselves out of the party. In the list thus appes. the following journals, in ad- dition to those noted in The Star Saturday: In the east: Boston Herald, independent democrat; Boston Globe, democrat; Providence Jour- nal, independent; Hartford Times, demo- crat; New Haven Register, democrat; Man- chester, N.

The expressions of some of these bolting papers, together with the views of those who approve, of those who disapprove but swallow the result, and of the so-called in- dependent press, are appended. BOLTING DEMOCRATIC PAPERS. Louisville Post (Dem). The populists at Chicago, masquerading as democrats, have capped the climax of their foolhardy proceedings with the selec- tion of William J. Bryan of Nebraska as the candidate for the presidency. They have chosen a bolter from the party councils, a deserter from the party camp, and an avowed populist, who has cast his fortunes with long-haired and long-eared donkeys of the west, and placed him upon a populistic platform,and now ask Simon-pure democrats to swing into line and support him for the highest office within the gift of the voters of the United Btates. Galveston, Tex., Newn (Dem). The democrat who understands the full meaning of the platform, who realizes the desperate plunge which the nation fs invited to take} will protest against debauching the national credit and embarking upon a wild, shoreless sea of financial chaos and degra- dation, will rise up from the dwarfdom of the partisan to the full statue of the patriot and align himself with those citizens who are determined to maintain the honor and integrity of the government, and to oppose every heresy which is subversive of good morals in the administration of national affairs. Brooklyn Eagle (Dem). Nothing but an honest democratic ticket and platform can arrest the march of the party toward republicanism. Some of its best men have already gone over to repub- licanism, not as republicans, but as honest- money democrats. We think they have made a mistake. The preservation of the democratic party to honesty as an organi- zauon is of more importance to the people of the United States than the result of any presidential election. We think that can best be done by providing an honest plat- form and honest men on it for honest demo- cratic voters who are still sane and who can jJabor, on those lines, to bring back to rea- son its still honest voters, who are out of the way. Louisville Courier-Journal (Dem). The league of free silver men who went to work several months ago to capture the organization of the democratic party have accomplished their purpose. They have put forth, in the democratic name, a plat- form which violates almost every cardinal democratic tenet, and have nominated as the democratic leader a young hot-head, who but recently abandoned the democratic for the populist party. Such foolhardy and bastard teadership, and such a radical revolution of the very life-principles of democracy, will be disowned by those dem- ocrats whose subserviency to party form is not dictated by their desire to share in the official spoils of party success and whose fealty to party organization means fidelity to the views for the advancement of which party is only the instrument. Speaking for these democrats, the Courier. Journal, whose whole existence has been spent in battle for democracy, rejects the new faith of fiatism, repudiation and an- archy which the Chicago convention has preciaimed as the democratic creed. The Baltimore sun (Dem). The only question that now presents it- self to the sound money men is “How to beat Bryan?” He is the best man the free coinage people could have nominated; a brillant speaker and an effective cam- paigner, he fite the platform and the plat- form fits him. The chances of success, however, are in favor of McKinley, as sound money men regard the evile of Ppro- tection as of less importance than the evils of free silver coinage. The Baltimore News (Dem). ‘There ts no duty half so urgent today as the duty of seeing that the Chicago con- vention idea of democracy 1s buried as deep as possible next November. Manchester, N. H., Union (Dem). For the first time in its history the Union refuses to vlace at the head of its editorial column tho name of the candidate selected by a national convention of its party. Re- gardless of what may be the personal mer- its or demerits of the young man who has been selected, regardless of his brief public career, which has sufficed to show him op- posing the repeal of the Sherman silver purchase act, an opponent of the present democratic administration and an extreme free silver advocate, the fact remains that that candidate has been placed upon a platform which no true democrat can intel- ligently and sincerely support. Springfield, Ma Union (Dem). The Springfield Union raises the republi- can ticket, and seys: “This is not the time to straddle. It is not the hour to fool around, to denounce republicanism and to harp on ‘corpcrate greed’ and the evils of protection. The democracy has gone over solidly to repudiation and to revolution. The party that stands for the financial honesty of the country must be supported by all patriotic people unless they can con- scientiousiy indorse the democratic plat- form.” The New York World (Dem). Lunacy having dictated the platform, it was perhaps nat:ral that hysteria should evolve the candidate. As the party is doomed to defeat by its platform, the tick- et is of minor consequence, except as it bears upon the future of the party. The nomination of a “‘boy orator” for the White House at this junciure of the nation’s af- fairs, domestic and foreign, when the ripest experience, the best tested wisdom, the aca Ant ahamster a rales broadest patriotism and the greatest exec-! utive ability are required, comes perilously FINANCIAL lew Ideas” On Building.

As a whole the money plank of the Ohi- cago convention is an assemblage of the historical falsehoods and economic er- rors and heresies that have been reiterated endlessly for the last twenty years in ail the populistic and silver gulch platforms from Ocala to Denver, and that have been made the t.xt of furious diatribes by venge- ful rebels and screeching populists.It is that plus and snarchistic assault upon the sa- cred right of private contract. St. Paul Globe (Dem). No democrat is bound by a convention whose irregularities and deflance of rule and precedent were, next after its avowal of sectionalism and the gospel of hate, its own particular pride. Today every man whose democracy is graven on his heart and stored among the ideals dearer to him than all suve honor is absolved from party les. ACQUIESCE, BUT DON’T LIKE IT. Richmond, Va., Times (Dem). The grief which the action of the Chi- cago convention has been to us can only be understood by those who have the prin- ciples of democracy permeating their moral and intellectual being. We do not mean to advise any one about his vote. As to those who voted in the primary, each one must judge the extent of his own obligation, in view of the extraordinary developments at Chicago. We shall continue to declare democratic principles, and 0 illustrate them to the best of our ability, irrespective of the Chicago manifesto of Tillman, Alt- geld & Company. Jachsonville, Fla., Times-Union (Dem) Democrats who do not agree with Mr. Bryan should support him because he is the nominee of the democratic party. They submitted the currency question to the de- cision of that party. They elected their delegates to its convention. If they had secured control of the convention they would have expected their opponents to submit. Failing, it is their duty to submit to the majority and support the nominee. Seranton, Pa., Times (Dem). The democratic national platferm is not in accord with the utterance of the demo- cratic party in this state. But the national ecnvention is the supreme arbiter, and no democrat should reject its conclusions without having given the subject due thought. In nearly every respect it is im- measurably preferable to the republican latform. W. J. Bryan, the candidate for resident, is an honest, able, pure and pa- triotic man. He has the same interest in upholding the honor and dignity and the financial standing of this country as any other patriotic American. He will not per- mit the ship of state to be run into the shallows during his administration. There should be no sulking or whimpering in the ranks. Stand by the democratic ticket manfully and honestly, and the outcome will be such as the American people will ccmmend. Richmond Dispatch (Dem). When we come down to the real, pai mount issues of the campaign, they are the same as they have always been. The parties are arrayed against each other on the same lines upon which they have always stood, and to the south, espe- cially, the maintenance of democratic eupremacy is as vital as it ever was. The scuthern democrat who allows the cur- rency, the tariff or any other minor ques- tion, or the unwise policies of his party in one campaign to obscure the fact that through democratic ascendancy alone can he expect the continuance of local self- government and white supremacy in the south makes a great mistake. INDEPENDENT DEMOCRATIC PRESS New York Evening Post. The nomination of this blatherskite for President of the United States and for adoption of a platform of repudiation make a pitiful cymax for the democratic party— the party of Jackson, Benton, Seymour, Tilden, Cleveland—the party whose boast has been that it always stood for sound money and never put a depreciated dollar into the hand of labor. The decadence of the party in the past few years, since the Tillmans, Altgelds, Bryans and Black- burns came to the front and took the leadership, has been melancholy in the extreme. " There are signs in plenty that nearly all the men who give character to the party today, successors of the great men whose names honor their country’s aistory, will repudiate this ticket and this platform as they would the pest. Philadelphia Record. The position taken on the money ques- tion 1s a compendium of misstatements and willful misrepresentations. The use of gold and silver as money was before the Constitution, and no power was given to Congress under it except to coin money and stamp it at its intrinsic value. It was forbidden to the states—and by im- plication forbidden to Congress—to make anything else but gold and silver a legal tender. Congress was givea no authority to issue money; only to coin it. Springfield, Mass., Republica’ The true interests of the people, then, ask for the clection of Mr. McKinle for himself, but for the absolute necessity of the whole people of the United States, and of the greater world of which they ere after all but a part. It will throw upcn the republican party a burden of duty which we must hope they will as- sume with dignity and conscience. They are largely responsible for the popular wrath which finds expression in the speeches and the declarations and the candidates of Chicago.
