Special Dispatch to The Call. ALL HEADQUARTERS, HOTEL WALTON, PHILADELPHIA, June 19.— Judge Van Fleet and Messrs. Spreckels, Peixotto and Spear remained in Washing- | ton last night so as to.be on hand lest ny further action was necessary in the matter of the California quarantine, Spear and Peixotto called on the Chinese Min- ter on Monday night and talked over the ation with him. The Minister was pleased to see and converse with persons who had been on the field and was much interested in all details. He expressed great satisfaction at the course now taken by the Federal authorities in Washing- ton. The four gentlemen who remained over took an early morning train from Washington to_Philadelphia. On reaching Philadelphja Mr. Spreckels found waiting him numerous dispatches thanking him for his efforts and asking him to convey thanks and congratulations to the delegation. Many of the delegation received individual dispatches. The spirits of the delegates were made much lighter nd all folt much relieved. The Eastern papers make very little comment on these matters so vital to California, all space being given up to convention items. U. 8. Grant Jr., delegate-at-large, and G. Bond, delegate, reached here and delegation went into_the convention complete. Dr. George C. Pardee has been appointed to go on the committee to no- the nominee for Vice President. The ation held a meeting in the morning passed resolutions thanking those hy had contributed fruits, wine and other California cheer. The reception room is filled with visitors all the while and hospitality in true Cali- fornia style is continually dispensed. The delegates expressed themselves as much pleased with the address of the temporary chairman, Benator Wolcott but more than one was heard to say, “General Barnes could have done better. We would like to hear him address the | convention on expansion and present Re- publicanism.” The weather is delightful; nothing bet- he hall is spa- cious and af the crowd well handled and directed, facilities for reaching the hall good and, generally, Philadelphia has done well. A committee of Philadelphia citizens is at hand to look after all dele- gations and the Californians have ex- tremely pleasant and attentive gentlemen in attendance upon them. The committee had a spacious house specially and ex- clusively at the disposal of the Califor- | nians to see last night's big parade and after the parade a fine spread was served. This was due to the thoughtful consid- eration and courtesy of Sheriff Crowe of Philadelphia, a friend of Mose Gunst of the deiegation. Sheriff Crowe has taken a special jnterest in the comfort and ac- commodafion of the delegation. . McCarthy of San Francisco ran over from New York to attend the col vention and will be here through the ses- ston. NIGHT OF FUN FOR VISITORS Crowds Make Merry on the Streets of the Quaker Town.

'There is no formidable contest com- | ing before the convention over the selec- | tion of the Kansas City delegation.

There wus an | advertising wagon in the crowd con- | structed on the election plan. A man | mounted this and harangued the crowd. | He had the voice, and that satisfied them. | No one seemed to know the speaker’s | | name and no one seemed to care. When | | the speaker jumped off the wagon the | band and the Albany Club moved toward | | the City Hall. | broke Into groups and still | street. Later in the night a drum and fife corps, under the apprehension that they had been neglected, started in and added to the noise. This was a diversion for a few minutes and then the crowd resumed its promenade, halting, commenting or | shouting, according to its disposition, The | weather was well adapted and the throng | made the most of the combination. While the street throng was enjoying it- self the hotel lobbies were in .a merry | mood. The time for buttonholing dele- §ates in the corridors had passed, so the otel crowds amused themselves by in- | ducing anybody to mount the office stairs | | and orate. From the time the speaker be- | gan he was the butt of ridicule and cat | calls until he gave up in despair. And then the lobby crowd would sing, or try | to, and wind up with a college yeli. i b | ACCIDENT IN HOTEL WALTON The crowd shifted and filled the Elevator Falls and Six Per- sons @Are Seriously Injured. PHILADELPHIA, June 19.—The ele- | vator in the Hotel Walton fell seven sto- | ries at midnight to-night and five of the passengers and the elevator boy were in- | jured. The two passengers most seri- ously hurt were J. J. Pringey, a delegate from Oklahoma Territory, and Brenton F. Hall, a delegate from Belding, Michi- | gan. Dr. Burton and Walter Hunter of "De]a.w:u'r‘, Marcellus West of Washing- ton and’' Dr. Camden of Texas were among the injured. Pringey and Hall have broken legs. | Dr, Camden of Texas had an arm and leg broken by being thrown out of the | elevator as it fell. The accident caused | great excitement. | “Marcellus West was conveyed in an am- | bulance to the Jefferson Hospital, where it was found that he had sustained a fracture of the leg. DECORATIONS OF CONVENTION HALL Crayon Portrait of McKinley the Most Striking Feature. PHILADELPHIA, June 19.—The Na- tional Export Exposition building, in which the convention meets, is located in ‘West Philadelphia, across the Schuykill River. It is an imposing structure, with a classic front, Corinthian columns and a handsome architecture, crowned by a quadriga drawn by four horses—an alle- gorical group representing commerce driving her steeds through the world, A seats of 500 working newspaper men, and down five more steps was the pit of the ‘delegates, their seats running back, rank on rank, the State standards marking the location of the delegations. Back of the delegates’ seats were those of the alter- nates, the whole pit being sunk five feet below the main floor and surmounted by a rafling. From the edges of the pit stretch- ed away endlessly the thousands of chal for the public across the entire length of the hall. In the north gallery was the band of 100 musicians. In the decorations studded between the outer rank of pillars were pictures of the Presidents of the United States and many of the heroes of the Republican party— Lincoln, Grant and Garfield. The portrait of Jackson, Democracy's patron saint, also occupled a prominent position. In the pit Alabama was at the front on the east and Texas on the west. Idaho, Indiana, New Jersey and New Hampshire were lo- cated between. The three blg delegations —New York, Ohlo and Pennsylvania—sat in that order immediately behind New Hampshire. Tllinois and ~ Missouri rominent in the right center. a, Mississippt, Rhode Isiand and South Caro- lina were in the extreme rear. Across the immense sea of seats from the platform the baton of the bandmaster looked not larger than a slate pencil. SENATOR LODGE FOR_CHAIRMAN Committee on Permanent Organization Selects X Officers. PHILADELPHIA, June 19.—The com- mittee on permanent organization, of which General Grosvenor of Ohio is chair- man and Thomas M. Hastirigs of New Hampshire secretary, met after the ad- journment of the convention and b unanimous consent selected Senator T.odge of Massachusetts for permanent chairman and voted to continue Charles W. Johnson of Minnesota permanent secretary. The list of secretaries, clerks and other officials recommended by the Natfonal Committee was approved and the commit. tee adjourned. ASSAULT UPON CIVIL SERVICE Message From Californians to the Philadelphia Convention. The following message has been sent by the Antl-Civil Service League of Califor- nia to the Republican Natlonal Conven. with a view of making a fight against | him at every turn, but they are not se- curing that support which would indicate that they will have very much weight in the convention to-morrow. Bailey's fight will be for a strong anti-expansion plank | in the platform and this is the only issue to come before the convention. The dele~ Eales will undoubtedly be instructed for ryan.
