The hall was densely crowded when the hour for the avening rossion ar- rived, Fully one half of the spectators were Iadies, The delegutes were all in their reats at7:30, half an hour aiter the appointed time, Temporary Chairman Raines called the con- vention to order, The commlttee on contested seats reported, recommending that contesting aud regular delegations from Westchester by both admitted with half a vote for each; also that the contesting delsgation from Chautan- qua bs admitted as tho 2ightful delezation. ‘L'hie contest in Livingston couaty was reported a haviog been sottled and withdrawn, The report was adupted, he committee on permanent organization reported, recommending that the temporary chairman, Hon.

The armament of these ves- gels 18 not decided on, Commodore Walker is stroogly opposed to putting larger guos than eight-inch rifles on cruisers. The Esmeralda corries two ten-inch guns, but guns of this sizs can be handled only by stesm machinery, while eight-inch puus can_be worked by hand, and me less likely to ba dis- abled in an engagement, The ammunition for ten-inch guns also takes up a great deal of room, A CORIOUS CRANK.

I will introduce my bill, which is » substitute for the Bland bill, at the assemblivg of congress, It will be opposed by the extreme gold and extreme silver men, but I believe there aru enough men who favor my proposition to carry it through the house, I think all will agree that sush a bill will offer a more perma- nent settlement of the silver quostion than would a change in the weight of coin, and no doubt a permanent settlement of that import- ant matter will lead to an immediate and last- ing revival of business throughout the country.
