Teller.” Every jumped to his feet and | shouted his approval of Senator Teller, as the latter s ped to the speaker’s ln-‘ ble. Mr. Towne presented Speaker Teller with a gavel made from wood taken from | Lincoln's old home at Springfield, Il , | which was presented to the runven(lun‘ | | ap- | | | by Lincoln Dubois of Illinois. Speaker Teller then delivered an elg- quent address, dealing with the monetary question and bitterly denouncing the d of silver. Senator Teller sald: Questions of forelgn and domestic policles | growing out of or incident to the last Spanish | war have especially attracted the attention of | the people dur last two years and will continue to do must not and will not be | allowed to obsc great and still unsettled question, ‘‘What shall be the financial system | of the repu I say still unsettled question because no great | economic v an be settled until it 1s set- fled In & way to do justice to all.

Senator Teller criticised the gold stand- ard legislation of the last session of Con- gress and asked if we should place ob- stacles in the way of those who search out hidden riches of the earth and ded cate them to the use of munkind. The on of the Republican convention of 189 and subse- Quent legislation, said: The Republican party has thrown off the mask and no longer pretends to favor even in- fernational bimetallism. It is well that it should do so, for the pledge of 189 was made fo secure votes, as was frankly admitted by leading Republicans as soon as the campalgn was over. Refers to the War Tax. The Senator claimed that the stimulus te business experienced in the last few years was due largely to the increase of The gold output and the continued produc- tion= of silver, thus confirming the bi- metallist quantitative theory of money. He continued: The Republicans boast that they have reduced the war debt $40,000,000. They fail to mention the fact that they have increased the national to reduce it. Nor do they mention the fact that they are collecting an internal revenue hom the people nearly, it not quite, $150,000,000 I more than any other administration aid in’time of peace. He contended that the present prosper- ity was not due to the Republican admin- istration or to the Dingley bill or the gold standard legislation. With a United States statute for their the land to be constitutional, he sald, the Republican Attorney General declares that the great trusts are beyond the power ©f the courts and cannot be restrained in Their work of spoliation of the public. It was certain no honest effort has been made by the party in power to control the trusts or in any way mitigate their per~ icious polley, nor would such effort be hde by that party in the future. Evi- dently trusts were secure while the Re- arty was in power. Mr. Teller reviewed the war with Spain and its results, concluding that the refer- ence to the Philippines, that there “ap- pears to be no way to protect the peo- ple of these islands, to maintain the peace Df the world, and our own honor, except o exercise sovereign power over ‘the isl- ands, until the people could form a gov- ernment of their own. I believe,” he con- tinued, “that public sentiment and the in, terest of the people of the islands demand | thte had never doubted that It was our nos the right domestic af- Porto Rico and Cuba. The Porto Rican legislation and the ad- ministration’s sudden change of front on that question were criticized and the speaker continued: “Fhe Republican platform declares. as to the inhabitants of our new possessions, “the largest measure of self-government consistent with their welfare and our duties shall be secured to them by law.” This Is the language of the despot. ‘‘Consistent with thelr welfare.” So of self-government in the dly exer- vs kingly power, always profe ised for the welfare of the subjects. The results in Cuba do not justify-any laud- at the ointees or of the method of their selection, for a more disgraceful chap- ter in American history has not been written in Cuba under Republican officials, rica] flights about our destiny and our - to take charge of the movernment and s of the Philippines against their will and to secure to them the blessings of free institutions will not deceive the American peo- ple any more than it will the objects of our osed_benevolence. What they demand of us is that we shall be true to our traditions and declarations that “the just powers of government are derived from the consent of the governed.” A guar- antee that such will be our pollcy will doubt- ess bring peace to the PhHippines. He declared that the Republican party was no longer the party of the people, as it was for many years, and sald: To-day it stands for all the combines and syndicates that . are robbing cause it derives its great power and strength from such combinations. Its policy is not, as it was once, to rely upon the people to support Republicanism and to maintain order and obedience to law, but, on the contrary, it now demands an army of 100,- 000 men, not to defend the country against a foreign foe, but to defend the wealth of the country agdinst the people of the country. At one time individual judgment and consclence governed Senators and Representatives in Con- gress; mow it is a caucus that controls the action of the representatives of the States and the people. Caucus domination is bad, but it is worse when, as now, the caucus is controilea, not by Senators or members, but by influences entirely outside of officlal life. Mr. Teller referred to the refusal of Con- | gress to adopt a jesolution of sympathy with the Boers, and closed as follows: With such a record is it strange that thou- sands of men who have been members oOf the Republican party find it inconsistent with their sense of duty to continue in its support, and turn to some other organization to find a better expression of their views? 1 feel assured that with Mr. Bryan's nomination and election will come o better condition of administration in all Qepartments of the Government—a bstter hope for the masses; better opportunities for struggling labor and liberty to our own peop.e and all that are within our jurisdiction in the islands of the seas. 5 5 Chairman_Teller was given the closest attentlon throughout his speech, which was nearly an hour in duration. ‘Were we wrong in leaving the St. Louis convention?” questioned he, and a thunder of noes came from the delegates. “If I had not left the party in 18% I would have done so every month since,” said he. “The conditions how are a thousand times worse than they were then.” ~ Cheers for Bryan and Towne. The first mention of Mr. Bryan's name came near the end of Chairman Teller's speech. It started a perfect storm of ap- plause, but the demonstration was excefied by that which occurred when Charles A. Towne's name was mentioned. The dele- gates, one and all, jumped to their feet, Wwaving flags, handkerchiefs, fans and hats and shouting and cheering for Bryan and Towne. For two or three minutes the delegates cheered for their choices and when a moment later Chalrman Tel ler finished his speech and exhausted into his chair he wa ed by delegates on the stage and congrat- ulated. B. S. Corser of Minnesota presented a resclution providing for a committee of fifteen, of which Henry M. Teller should be chairman, to present to the Demo- cratic convention the name of Charles A. Towne as a candidate for Vice President and that a similar committee of confer- ence be appointed to confer with a com- mittee which shall be appointed by the Democratic National Convention. The various State delegations announced their selections for members of the com- mittees, and pending their organization and report the convention adjourned until 10 o’clock to-morrow morning. The committee on resolutions, Senator Dubols chairman, had a protracted ses- slon to-night. Several drafts of platforms and numerous amendments were read and discussed. A sub-committee of seven, Senator Dubols chairman, was appointed to take up the several reports and amend- ments serjatim and report a platform to the committee to-morrow after the ad- journment of the morning session, @+ o+ e e eb et eoeQ BOISTEROUS SESSIONS OF CONVENTION Continued From Page Two. sank nearly plause swept over the audience. From side to side the bust was turned that all might know whom he represented. When the applause had subsideqd, Charles Hampton of Peterskey, Mich read in magnificent voice the immortai Declaration of Independence. As the full and rounded sentences of the great state aper rolled through the hall the cheer- ng and enthusiasm increased and when Mr. Hampton had concluded the tremen- dous applause fairly shook the building. When the applause ceased Miss Ful- toni of New York was introduced and sang ‘‘The Star-spangled Banner,” the au- dience standing and cheering after each verse. It was an innovation in a nation- al convention. Then, as she finished the Jast strain, the band took up “‘America” and, led by Miss Fultoni, 20,000 rsons broke into the stirring words of ‘M Country, 'Tis of Thee,” singing it throu;i with unction and closinz it with a cheer. Clamorous for Hill. Then suddenly somebody started the cry for “Hill,” “Hill.” In an instant Ma- rfiund. Tennessee, Loulsiana, Mississippi and New Mexico were on their feet, wa ing their standards and yelling “Hill" “Dave HIIL' The pounding of the chair- man’s gavel had no effect and for a time it looked like a concerted movement to stampede for the New Yorker. As dele- gation after aelegation arose 'in their Seats and the chairman’s gavel fell, Mr. Hill was compelled-to arise and bow.’ Th: was the signal for pandemonium and nothing seemed to be able to stop the torrent of avplause. A few hisses were met with-volleys of cheers and finally a the people be- | | than this of the administration of postal affairs THeTO -0 Hea ANSAS CITY, July 4—The contest over the question of the monetary ratio, which has been brewing ever since the delegates to the convention began to assemble, found expression in the committee on res- olutions when it assembled to-day. Sena- tor Jones of Arkansas was unanimously | chosen chairman and Mr. Metcalf of Ne- braska secretary. Metcalf presented the draft of a plat- form, covering all questions of public in- terest, which draft all the members ac- ‘cepted as Mr. Bryan's expressed opinion on this question. of New York. All these documents took practically the same ground on all ques- tions except that of finance. Metcalf's declaration was for the reafirmation of the Chicago platform in letter and spirit, and it emphasized and reiterated specifi- cally the declaration for the free coinage of silver at the ratio of 16 to 1. Both the other drafts simply reaffirmed the Chi- cago platform without reference to the ratio. Van Wyck led off with a brief statement | saying that while in his platform he had referred to four issues as prominent, namely, those of imperialism, militarism, only three of these were of current conse- quence, bellieving that the money question had been crowded igto the background by other cubjects which had pressed to the front during the past four years.

STEVENSON | | BY BELL the surprise of s the . committee, followed Van Wyck in support of his views of the question. The Senator said that no man who knew him would doubt for a mi that_he now stood where he had stood on the silve question in '%, and he entertained pre- cisely the same views on the subject | which then controlled him. He was, how- ever, anxious to bring back into t of the party those who had left it years ago on account of the positi taken on the silver question and if this | could be accomplished, as he believed it could, by omitting all reference to the ratio, he, for one, was content to pursue that course, simply reaffirming the Chi- cago platform. Fitzgerald of Colorado followed in a warm speech depouncing in most emphatic language any effort to minimize the finan- cial question. “If,”" he said, referring tosthe platform presented by Metcalf, “Mr. Bryan is a g00d enough man, then the platform ap- proved by him should be good enough.” George Fred Willlams of Massachusetts passionately declared he did not believe in deserting those people who had left their own partles to support the Demo- cratic policy of four years ago for the purpose of regaining the support of the traitors and trimmers who had left the Democratic party because of its financial position. “There is no r making any conce: on,” he exclaime ion to treason Continuing, he asked: ‘“‘Are we going to drive the Populists into the middle of the road in order to get back the traitors? Are we going to sell out our principles to the torles of the Democratic party, and desert our real friends?” be pursued the trusts would take posses sion of the Democratic party as they had already taken possession of the Repub- lican party, and that In that event there PRESIDENTIAL NOMINATION.

T oa° by Ser part of New York's delegation arose and joined the applauding _hosts. Croker, Murphy, Van Wyck and the Tammany delegatlon kept their seats without join- ing in it. For fully ten minutes the applause and disorder continued, the steady rap of the gavel having no effect. Each time a new State standard was pulled up and waved the applause began anew. After his first bow to the audience Hill kept his seat, but he could not disguise the gratifica- tion that he felt at the reception accord- ed him. Friends urged him to. take the platform, but he kept shaking his head negatively. On the platform the chairman and the sergeant-at-arms tried in vain to_get order. Finally Hill himself, hoping to stem the torrents of applause, arose. Then the delegates and the crowd howled them- selves hoarse. “HIill'" “Platform!” they screamed. = “Mr. Chairman,” he ejaculated, but his applause. “*Mr. Chairman,” he tried again to say, and then, drowned out again, sank laugh- ing in his seat. Just before the demonstration over Mr. Hill began, Delegate Joshua A. Miles, a former Congressman from Maryland, ad- Vanced toward the platform occupied by the presiding officer, and waved the Mary- land standard. There was so much noise be heard four feet from where he stood. He sald that he had arisen to move the thanks of the convention to the young lady who had so moved the convention by Ker rendition of a song which had been written by a Maryland patriot. The | motion was announced in Mr. Miles’ most b; o*\cer found no opportunity to aul})mlt it W] ‘ter fifteen minutes, order was o ey A rernor Thomas administered & stern warning to the assemblage, stat- ing that the convention was here to do business and that if the spectators inter- rupted the work by unseemly disorder, the officers of the convention would be directed to clear the galleries. Hisses for Van Wyck. members of the various committees. This Was a tedious work, covering ail the cau- cus selections of the several States and Territories. When the name of Carter H. Harrison was called as the Illinois mem- ber of one of the committees, it brought out a round of cheers and calls for Har- rison, which for a moment threatened to be a repetition of the Hill demonstration. The names of Governor Overmeyer, Sen- ator Blackburn, George Fred Willlams and W. J. Stone _also _elicited cheers. When Augustus Van. Wyck was an- nounced as the New York member of the platform committee there was a storm of mlng!ed hisses and cheers and another demand for Hill. Delegates Grady and Malloy of New York led in the applause for Mr. Van Wyck's name. It took a vig- orous play with the nfi'wel to restore or- der and allow the call to proceed. After the name of the last committee- mar. had_been given Chairman Thomas announced that a motion had been made Flvlnz the thanks of the conyention to the ady who had sung “The Star-Spangled Banner.” It was carried. A delegate from Ohio secured the at- tention of the chairman by violent ge: ticulation and then, mounting on his chair as he was ncOfnued. moved that an in- vitation be extended to Mr. Bryan to visit the convention. A wild cheer of ap- lause went up before the chairman had geen given time to hear a second to the motion. . X = .

By 4:30 o'clock about half of the various delegations were in their seats and the unding out ragtime airs to entertain the crowd which filled every | seat and occupied every square foot of standing room outside of the space re- served for the delegates and alternates. Chairman Thomas, warm and perspiring, mounted the rostrum at 4:33. The recess gave a chance to the Hill ad- mirers to crowd about him and for fully twenty minutes they forbade him leaving the hall, shaking his hand and congratu- lating him on the ovation he had received. When the convention began assembling the principal point of interest seemed to be the New York delegation and around It warmed the delegates from other States, anxious to see Hill, Croker, Van Wyck and other celebrities. At 4:43 Chairman Thomas' gavel called the convention to order, the delay being caused by the non-arrival of the delegates and the desire on the part of the conven- tion leaders to afford the committees time to prepare their @eports.
