CUT LOOSE McClellan They Couldn't Grout and Fornes. «Gloom in the Wigwam Forces, ‘The convention that nominated McClellan, Grout and Fornes at Carnegie swarmed about the doors to the inner etrcles of the machinery that son the inside there were discord and violence and perapiration. y convention marked the parting of the Ways between Tanimany Hall MéLaughlin organization. There is a split in the Democratic end of jgn. Mr. Murphy showed his power, and Mr. McLaughlin, out- outgeneralled, showed his power with his own adherents, Out of the smoke and the foul air of the convention there was born g ticket that ‘will be knifed. The only Tammany leader who revolted was James J. Mar- tin, but the Brooklyn delegation stood against Murphy to a man. When the convention was called te order the floor and the ide. Mr. T. C. T. Crain made a long address in a sing-song way, end fle he was talking most of the frantic delegates managed to squirm to their places. {Phe hall looked like a real convention hall, All of the gallery reilings werg:draped fn American flags. Women gowned in white occupied the front rows.. In the topmost gallery the mob whs coatless, On the main floor delegates, policemen and butters-in were mixed in an apparently inex- -tricable mass: madercurrent indicating doings later on. “st last, when Carnegie Hall hed reached resemblance to the steam room of a Turkish bath, the committees returned and the convention got fown to business. Former Senator O'Sullivan, one of the few men in the assemblage who was dressed up, took the centre of the stage to read the platform which was adopted. *'Pown the middle aisle stepped a stocky young man with a pink com- plexton and hairy epuulets on his cheeks in front of his ears. It was Johp J. Delaney, formerly an assistant District-Attorney, the man upon whom Mr. ‘Murphy had placed the obligation of opening the battle. CHEERS FOR M’CLELLAN. «Mr, Delaney was burdened with more or less stage fright, but he ao- quitted himself well notwithstanding. He worked up the anticipation of the expectant and knowing audience and then satisfied the anticipatton. When he said that in the veins of the man he was about to place In nomi- mation for Mayor flowed the blood of heroes and then mentioned the name $iere was enthusiasm in Carnegie Hall. , All of the delegates save those from Brooklyn arose amd cheered and plumped their hats into air like men putting up dumbbells, In the middle and south galleries women and nien stood on their chairs and screamed, .From one of the boxes there was dextrously rolled a great banner bearing ~~ a picture of George B. McClellan and the information that he was the regu- Jar nominee of the “Democrat-Republican” organization. After Mr. Delanoy had left the stage Col, Franklin Bartlett took hts ace. It was then close to 11 o'clock and the crowd was tired. Col. Ban- took a drink of ice water and began a speech seconding the nomination © wf Mr, McClellan. He went back to the War of the Rebellion and described in detail the formation of the rival armies that faced each other before the dectaive tattle of Antietam. He wis deliberate in his speech, and before he got down to the real fighting somebody in the gallery asked him to “eut It out.” Following this there was tumultuous and sarcastic applause—the sort. et applause that makes an orator mad. It was joking applause. The Y, autiience had accumulated the idea that the Colonel was going to make t them a lengthy address and the audience wanted action. They howled him_down \ Directly across the aisle from Tim Sullivan sat a round-faced young Ei man who hat listened attentively to the speech of Mr. Delaney. This young mar anrwers to the name of Martin W. Littleton, There is something sug- weetive of William J. Bryan about his appearance and his ovatorical meth- ~ ods. When he got up on the stage io place in nomination a candidate other than that candidate proposed by Tammany, his colleagues from kiyn smiled and nodded at each other, and the big, torrid hall became The effort Mr. Littleton made was mot up to his capacity. He had been Ingthe dark like all the rest of the politicians up to a few days ago, and ite this he had been assigned to the task of placing the name of Justice jam J. Gaynor before the convention in such a convincing way that many men would vote for Gaynor, His eloquence was all right, but he@iid not avpear to be warme:! up to his job. ARREN TO THE FRONT. The long form and Indian-like face of Senator McCarren ovcupied the tage when Mr. Littleton had stepped down. It was up to Senator McCarren | to@econd the nomination of Justice Gaynor. He did it in a tactful speech that would have surprised many of the men who know him only as a con- traptor, an owner of race-horses and race-tracks. He had the good will i of the crowd. ' ; Between Mr. Littleton and Senator McCarren there ha@ been said # things about Tammany Hall that required answers. Hence, Senator Grady, i: ergtwhile the silver-tongued orator of the wigwam, wis chosen to go up L J make the required replien. He was in hetter form than usual of late, a hig: well of sarcasm was flowing, and at the finish of his effort there were i feWer wrinkles on the brow uf Charles F. Murphy than there had been wi he began. The fight was on. Brooklyn had chosen one candidate for the honor of nation, Tammany had chosen another, In the wegured the whole vote of Brooklyn barring one, his delegate, from the Bigth District, voted for McClellan. It was almost two to one in favor of;thé Tammany nominee, and Mr. Shea, of Brooklyn, made a motion to a ane nomination of McClellan declared unanimous The motion was ‘ROOKLYN CAME EARLY. + safot_ until Luke Stapleton, of Brogklyn, mounted the stage to place Comptroller Grout in nomination was the mystery solved of how it had sree a hard to get imto the hall and way there had been such silent erowd¥ in the north galleries. It seems that so many Brooklyn people ie i the hall early and when the Manbattanites got around to break they found all the places occupied. The name of Grout wes greeted with shrieks and groans and strango where the men had been silent before, Men want a Democrat.” All sorts of questions alloting Justice Gaynor . megaphones Asdikely to furnish 2 campaign ery was pnt by a itin whistle.
