From all sides of the house came cheers for Charles F. Murphy as he marched down the main aisle with A, Bird Gardiner and “Big Tim” Sullivan. There were cheers for the big fellow, too, Gardiner and Murphy set qlde by side well up in front and just off the main aisle. Victor J. Dowling sat close by, and so did Tom Grady and John J, Delany, A seat was saved in the eame Diace for Bourke Cockran, who was Inter then the others in arriving. Mr. Cockran was cheered. CONVENT.ON BEGINS WORK. It was exactly eighteen minutes of 8 o'clock when Chairman Campbell] «i opened the convention and appointed five secretaries of the convention, among them Thomas F. Smith, secretary of Tammany Hall, George Raines, of Monroe, was chosen temporary chairman of the con- vention without a dissenting voice. Thomas IF. Grady, of New York; John F. Grady, of New York; John L. Shea, of Kings, and Robert A. Maxwell were appointed a commitee to escort Mr. Raines to the platform. The ap- pearance of Mr. Raines and his escort on the platform was the signal for more applause. By far the most interesting part of Mr. Raines’s speech was that de- voted to the convention's choice of Alton B. Parker as tts candidate for the Presidency. Mr. Raines said that not only the Democracy but the entire|a country bungers for a conservative, level-headed, well-balanced candidate, | Ball, “one who will nt daily get on the nerves of the country. Mr. Raines start- othd the up-Staters cheering by saying there was no difference of opinion as to the candidate, but simply a difference as to the best way in which to ex- _ USpreus the choice. The majority would prevail, he said, and once a decision} # was made, he was confident that all would acquiesce. This brought out more cheering, during which the Tanmany men were absolutely silent. ‘The afternoon session of the convention clsed with the calling of tho temporary roll. On motion of Senator McCarren the convention took a recess unt!! this evening. GRADY FORCES HILL TO MAKE CONCESSION. (Spectul to The Evening World.) ALBANY, N. Y., April 18.—Before the convention assembled there was » meeting of the State Committee. It was surprisingly peaceful. Where Temmany had planned to make its first stand—the contest in the First District of Onondaga—the Hill men yielded after listening to a half hour of rather plain talking from Senator Thomas F. Grady. The concession by Hill on its face appears to be a conciliatory move, for yesterday the Hill men were shouting that under no circumstances would a single antl-Hill delegation be even seated in the temporary organization. They have now calmly allowed three such delegates to take their seats, and there seems to be little doubt but what the Committee on Credentials will tndorse the move during the recess of the convention this afternoon. ‘The State committee headquarters were crowded to suffocation when Obairman Campbell rapped his gavel for order. In a jiffy the work on the Programme was under way and George Raines, of Rochester, was selected as the temporary and permanent chairman. a ‘When Onondaga County was called the anti-Hill men were named by |s: State Committeeman John Dunfee, but the contesting delegation made up of Hii men wore declared seated by Mr. Campbell. ‘The Tammany men were furious at this reverse of his own ruling by Mx. Campbell, and they made such a fuss that Mr. Campbell again reversed Mmself. This brought Senator McCarren to his feet in @ second. He does not want Murphy to have a single delegate outside of New York. and he pro- tested agninst seating the Dunfee men in spite of the fact that the Hill men . i Cattaraugus were seated over the anti-Hill men under precisely similar @lroumstances. Senator Grady then took the floor and began his harangue iii favor of the anti-Hill men. GRADY’S STINGING SPEECH. t.-“It' you have decided on any kind of unfairness in the powes fa brutal majority—to suppress the minority,’ sald Senator Grady, “then Mt-makes little difference to us for whom you give instructions or how long these instructions are. Remember that when you decide to deprive men of their rights in a convention in this State they still have a national conven- tion to which to sppeal, and will use that privilege. Do you want the taint of 1892 on this convention? You trampled on your properly elected dele- gates then, and were properly punished. Do you want the same fate next Futyt “To-day there is.a magnificent opportunity for complete Democratic suc- “Seess in) this State. The clouds never looked down on a more hopeful aceno, 4nd all that is neceseary is for us to be of one mind. ‘The point of diffor- $nee'detween us is very small. Some say now Is the time to name our can- @Mate; others say no. Are you ready to -anipulate a State convention in pier to‘cerry your point? Bo careful.” Bivergbody looked to Senator McCarren to see what he would reply, but ghook his head. He had been whispering with Mr, Sheehan dur. Grady’s speech. Mr. Sheshan and Mr. Parker are known to be opposed subbing It too hard into Tammany Hall. Mr. Qampbell then announced SWEEPS THE DEMOCRATIC STATE CONVENTION.

The hearing in the sult against the Northern Securittes Company, asking a restraining order against the announced | method of distribution of that com- pany's holdings of Great Northern and Northern Pacific railroad stocks held in| Jersey City to-da for the big mei company. E. T. Nichols, ary and tr resulted In a victory urere of the Northern Securities © sl pany, filed an aMdavit very similar to! that filed in the Minnesota suit, the only new thing being a statement that! the Continental Securities Company be-| came a stockholder of record of 500! shares on March 28, ix days after the} distribution of stock had been decided upon. Counsel for Mr. Venner demanded the production of the books, to which de- mand the counsel for the Northern Se- curitles Company objected, and the| argument was protracted. Thomas Thatcher, representing 5,000 shares of stock, objected to any extension being granted, A Mr. Cortright, one of the stockhold- ers, sald that 2,800,000 shares of stock were ready to assent to the plan of re- organization as set forth in the circular recently issued by the Northern Secur- {tes Company, Hoe sald there are 8,%4,- 00 shares of stock of the company out- standing; therefore, more than half are in favor of the plan of reorganization. Gharles E. Thompson, who was ac- companted in court by Charles H. Ven- ner, of Boston, who ts said to be the backbone of the Continental Securities Company, read an affidavit of Venner, but this was objected to by Mr, Griggs as containing new matter and not re- buttal, Vice-Chancellor Bergen ruled that Venner should have told all he knew in the application, and that he must now confine himself to the rebuttal. Thompson argued that by a decision of the United States District Court in Min- neota the company, having failed in its purpose, should now return to the orig: inal stockholders the stock they put in: Mr. Griggs argued that the holding company has legal ownership, and acting in an equitable manner, It w: shown by affidavits that more than two- thirds of the stock as filed gave assent to the plan of reorganization, There was nothing to show that there should eb an application of the Sherman act. As the Attorney-General had taken no action, the Court should assume that the Attorney-General had none to make.
