THE FIGHT BEGINS.

The Republican Convention Holds an Exciting Session.

CREDENTIALS COMMITTEE REPORTS.

lArrlft(iit*n

&Uu&>4

The day's work was completed by the reading and adoption of a platform as presented by ex-Uov. Foraker. When the convention meets at 11 o'clock this morning there will be nothing to further delay the orators who are to place the candidates tu nomination.

The Morning Session^'

MINNEAPOLIS, June 10.—The republican national convention was called to order at 11:22 o'clock, and after a session of a quarter of an hour adjourned until 8 o'clock p. m. He v. Mr. Hush, 1"). IX, chancellor of the University of South Dakota, delivered tho opening prayer.

Chairman Cogswell, of the committee on credentials, when called upon for his report arose and said: "The committee is still at work and husinade diligent progress. It hopes to l»e able to rei#ort at 8 o'clock, and asks for further time."

To Indorse tlio World's Fair. lCx-Gov. Sewall at once moved that a recess be taken until 8 o'clock in order to give the committee the necessary time, but yielded for a resolution of Senator Culiom, of llliuois, indorsing tho world'* fair and recommending a national appropriation therefor. The resolution is as follows: "Resolved, That tho World's Columbian exposition, to be Inaugurated in the city of Chicago in 1893. Is rightfully considered by all classes of our citizens, regardless of their political affiliations, as a great national undertaking, and that in recognition of Its character and importance cougress ought to promptly provide by appropriate legislation such reasonable aid needed therefor as will enable tho government to discharge its express and implied obligations incident thereto and as will insure the attainment of such result as will befit the dignlty, progress, culture and development of the nation."

After reading, the resolution was referred to the committee on resolutions. Seats for Veterans.

Mr. Rolmrt, of Illinois, presented a resolution (also referred) providing that grand army men be admitted to standing room and that If any seats were vacant thirty minutes after'the convention was called to order they should be allowed to occupy them. The resolution was received with applause.

Adjournment.

The question now reverted upou ex-Gov. Sewall's motion for adjournment until 8 o'clock, but the Harrison men objectod to this, and Mr. Lawson, of New York, dctnauded a division u))on the vote and there were cries for a speech from Ingalls and others. Pennsylvania and Ohio were notably in favor of adjournment, while Wisconsin, Missouri aud several of the strongly Harrison stales wero opposed. After a careful eotint of heads, Chairman McKinley said: "The yeas are 407 and the navs£60. and the convention concludes to adjourn until 8 o'clock p. m."

The Mfht Session.

MINNEAPOLIS, Miun., June 10.—THE convention was called to order at 8:45 p. m. Mr. Depew, of New York, in a felicltious speech called atteution to the fact that Hon. It W. Thompson, of IndlAna, had reached his 83d birthday, and moved that the convention congratulate him aud iuvlte him to tho platform. Amid prolonged cheers the motion was unanimously carried.

Scene of Enthusiasm.

It was a scene of enthusiasm long to be remembered that greeted tho appearance of tho venerable ex-secretary of the navy as be walked up the aisle arm in arm with Chauncey M. Depew and A. C. Dawes, of Missouri, and of course the incideut was not complete without a speech from "Dick" Thompson.

Veterans Honored.

The resolution admitting membors of tbe Grand Army of the Republic to any seats in the convention unoccupied thirty minutes after the opening of the convention was of course adopted, aud a message was read from the mayors of Titusville and Oil City announcing to the world the state of distress and suffering that prevailed in those inundated districts aud maklug a public appeal for aid.

Cred«»ntlaL Committee Splits. The announcement of the committee on credentials that a minority report would be submitted caused considerable excitement and there was painful susponse, while the two reports were being orally submitted, as to what would follow.

The majority report recommended that twelve Harrison delegates in Alabama, Mississippi and Louisiana be seated in place of the same number of Blaine men given places ou the temporary roll, and the mluority rccom mended that tho twelve Blaine men on the temporary roll be placed ou the permanent roll. The report of the committee also covered contests In Texas, Kentucky, Maryland, South Carolina and North Carolina aud District of Columbia, but 'there was no political significance In these, contests and the report was unaulmous on these oases.

Uavo Harrison the Benefit.

The majority report sustained tho national committee as to 23 votes and reversed the national committee as to 17 votes. In Louisiana tho national committee was sustained as to four delegates at large and four district delegates, and not sustained as to four ether district delegates—In Maryland not sustained in i! votes Mississippi sustained as to 2 district votes and were not sustalued as to two delegates at large (each faction being given a half vote Instead of the Hill faction a whole vote). North Carolina sustained I voles, District of Columbia sustained 2 votes, Utah, not sustained as to 1 vote (by-splitting the delegation between the two factious), Alubam.i sustained as to 8 and reversed as to 0 votes. Politically the result was again of IS votes to Harrison and of 1 vote to Blalno, a net Harrison gain of 12 voles.

This gain iucludcd 0 votes in Alabama, 4 in Louisiana and 8 in Missfcstppi. The gaitrof the votes was made owing to the fact that the Harrison men had won over three members of the credentials committee and thereby secured a majority.

The Fight Really Deguu.

When Chairman Cogswell moved that the majority report be adopted ho was loudly cheered by the Harrison delegates, and when Chauncey I. Filley, of Missouri, moved to substitute the minority report therefor, tho applauso which followed from tho Blaine delegates told the gal*

lerliK that tlie long-expected tight between the .Illtilnc und HnrrlRon force** WIIB on. The chief point In Mr. Filley'* argument In behnir of the minority report was that the regular orguuUution of the party In the Alabama cane had been barred from their regular place of meeting by United States deputy marshals.

A f.ong unit Heated Debate. Then followed a lengthy dlauusalon. Ivnlghl, of California, spoke warmly In favor of the minority report. Bothea, of llUnolH, made an uncomplimentary alluiton to tho people of tbo Hcctlon from which tho contest came, and was lilBhwl by the galleries.

'ftl tlio lloflnlt of the Convention'* Action, Regarding- It us a Tent Vote.

TILK SITUATION OUTLINED.

A test vote in the nuUomil .republican con* ventlon taken ut midnight indicated majority of the delegates to be in favor of UarrlKon. The vote WUH on the adoption of the report of the committee on credentials, but was generally looked upon as a fair tc«t of the strength of the opposition. 'I ne evening session continued until 1:87 o'clock this morning, and almost all the time was occupied in a heated debate over the majority and minority reports of tho credentials committee. The result of the ballot was enough to start the president's shouters afresh. They had previously held a caucus aud claimed to have the pledges of enough votes to secure Mr. Harrison's rcnominntloo.

ORAWFORDSVILLE, INDIANA, FRIDAY, JUNE 10, 1892.

»n Assistant sorgeant-ot-orms and attempt to clear thom. for tlio crowd was excited and Intensely Interested. Senator Wolcott, ol Nevada, In speaking for the minority report, warmly denounced not only the deputy marshals In Alabama, hut the hundreds of officeholders who were to-day present In the galleries and In the hall of this convention, crowding out the people's delegates in their frantic attempt to renominate the president. Wolcott's speech was answered by C. U. Ilart, of West Virginia, who said that he came from a southern suite and yet ho was not an ofllceholGer. He Came from the stato of West Virginia, which had given Cleveland 300 majority in 1U88 and would go re publican in 18912.

The greatest Interest was manifested when Col. H. M. Duftield, of Detroit, the Alger manager, arose to speak lu fuvor of the minority report. His uctlon was interpreted us meaning that tho Alger people wero prepared to vote with tho Uluiue people in the test of strength ugulnst tho Harrison force.

Depoiv and Mlllrr Opposed. There was wild applause when Chauncey Depew arose to support the majority report, which he did briefly.

Ex-Senator Warner Miller, of Now York, spoke for the minority, and as his first point, said that ho had listened to many reports of the committee on credentials, but this was tho first time he hud over beard a majority rciiort which gave no reasons why It should be adopted except that It "was" tho mujority report. It had been said that the majority report was 41 to 6 that It was not so—It wns i!4 to 23. Was one majority to overweigh everything olsc

Miller then closed by moving as a parliamentary motion that the Cogswell report bo divided and the present vote taken on tho Alabama part alone.

The Previous Question Ordered. Chairman Cogswell closed the debate by calling for tho previous question and immediately tho demand for the previous question wus seconded by a majority of the delegates of Massachusetts, Delaware and West Virginia. •Senator Quay, rising to a parliamentary question. wnnted to know the effect of the previous question—if It would enable them to have a voto on tho separato propositions Involved in tho report. Tho chair ruled that Senator MiUor having demanded a division of the propositions involved In the Cogswell report there could bo separate votes takon. Doth sides were ready for tho vote, and a storm of ayes greeted MoKinley when ho asked if tho previous question should be ordered. Deforo this was done, however, by unanimous consent tho majority report In all cases where there was no minority report was submitted and adopted by acclumution. An amendment was now mndo to take a standing vote on the Alabumu case, and when the affirmative vote was submitted an upparcnt majority of tho convention arose. Instantly the New York and Pennsjivunla delegations demanded a roll-call and it was ordered by the convention.

Tot-lnff Ilepiui,

The question was put on adopting the ma Jority report concerning the uncontested seats In the convention, and tliero was but one vote in the negative.

Tho roll was then callcn on the minority report in tho Alabama case. Tho chair stated the question heforo tho oonventlon to be the substitution of tho minority report in the Alabama caso for tho majority report. A call of states was demanded by Pennsylvania, seconded by Now York, and tho chair thereupon directed the secretary to call the roll of states and territories.

At its completion the chairman said: "On this voto for tne substitute of tho majority report in Alabama, tho ayes are 423« and tho nays are 483, and the motion Is lost."

Motion to adjourn fulled to carry and the roll was callcd In tho adoption of the majority report 011 delegates at large from Alabama, Penn sylvanlu having demanded it and New York and Colorado seconded the demaud. The vote resulted 47(1 yeas and 8V4 nays.

Harrison Men Went Wild.

A mighty yell greeted the announcement of the Harrison victory. Cunes. hats, handkerchiefs, anything that could bo grubbed, were swung wildly in triumph while the dome seemed to tremble with tho terriile roars of uppluuse.

An attempt to udjotmi the convention at this interesting juncture failed. The hour proposed wus 10 o'clock In tho morning, but it was decided by a substantial majority to procced with the business of the convention without delay.

Gov. Foraker asked the unanimous consent ol the convention to the* reahlng of the platform as prepared by the committeo on resolutions. The platform was read and adopted, notwithstanding a plea from Hiscock to give tho udvocatcs of irrigation of arid lands in tho west chance to be heard, and the convention adjourned.

The Harrison Vote.

MIKNBAI'OI.IB, June 1Q—The greatest'sensutiou of the day was a caucus of the Harrison men held immediately after the adjournment ol the convention. Word had been passed around in tho convention hall that all delegates who favored Gen. Harrison's nomination were cxpeetcd to meet at Central Market hall us soon as tho convention had taken recess. Tho object of tho meeting was not stated. Only the leaders of tho Harrtsou movement knew its purpose. But its importance wos Impressed upon each of the delegates and he was urged to come from tho convention direct to the place of mooting. Chauncey M. Depew WM mado chairman, and Chris Mugec secretary of the meeting.

Thero wns some discussion as to tho best method of registering the strength of Harrison In tho convention and Mr. Magec suggested that he would read a roll which had been made last night for corrections. Mr. Mageo then read tho roll, beginning with Alabama. Tho report of each chairman on tho platform announced tho Harrison strength in his delegation.

At the conclusion of the roll call Mr. Magec announced that the total number of votes promised to Harrison was BfiO. This included figures from Now Mexico, Oklahoma and Utah, which were not represented In the meeting.

Mr.Magce moved that Chauncey M.Dcpew be tnnde the leader of tho Harrison forces in the convention and that the friends of Harrison stand by him to the end. The motion was adopted amid cheers.

Culloin Tra* to Harrison.

Senator Culiom has beon repeatedly askod to allow his name to be used as that of a favorite son to consolidate the Illinois delegates against Harrison. His refusal has been quiet but firm aud determined. He said: "I came here to vote for the renomlnation of Unrrlson as the best candidate before the convention. Ho will be nominated and he will be the best candidate boforo the people. If I could be nomlnatod, which is an Impossibility as I understand the situation, 1 oould not be a party to any matter involving a breach5 bt faith and violation of my instructions." The-senator denies an interview published Thursday morning to tho oCTcct that he had stated be would be a candidate in case Harrison oould not win. "Blaine Is In the Race to stay.

BOSTON,'Juno 10.—Mr. Blaine Is still at Hotel Brunswick, and. cannot say whon ho will leave Boston. He received a delegation of newspaper mon, hut refused' to be interviewed. A gentleman who oalled upon Mr. Blatne Wednesday says that Mr. Blaine resents the treatmont' he has received from the, press that he has had uo personal quarrel with the president that ithelr differences are purely political and that they parted on the most courteous terms Ho further says that Blaine will not withdraw his name from-before the convention, but is perfectly willing to let tho delegates fight It OUL

NEW YOHK, June 11.—The Times this mottling publishes the following special from Troy: "There is in existence a letter signed by Senator David U. Hill authorizing the withdrawal of his name from all further consult-ration by the democratic state and national conventions whenever in the opinion and discretion of Richard Croker, Hugh McLaughlin, ICilward Murphy, Jr., and \V. l'\ Sheehan such a step should be taken.

In ICilwurd Murphy's Safe. "That letter is in this city at this moment. It is in the safe of Edward Murphy, Jr., chairman of the demoeratie state committee. There will be hasty and perhaps angry denials of the above statements, but they are based upon information which the Times has taken pains to verify and which is believed to be absolutely reliable. The letter was brought to New York by Lieut Gov. William F. Sheehan on Sunday night from Washington in the same pocket in which Mr. Sheehan also brought the resolution, a part of which only was adopted at the delegates' meeting ou Monday night last "The knowledge of tlie letter was supposed to be coufined to Messrs. Murphy, Sheehan, Croker and McLaughlin. The letter throws a good deal of light on the Monday meeting of the the delegates.

THEIR PRINCIPLES.

ITNNEAPOMT), Minn., June 1.—Following the complete text of tiie platform adopted by the committee for submission to tho convention:

The representatives of tho republicans of tlio United States assembled in gei.eral convention oil tho shores of the Mississippi river, tho overlasllng bond of an lndeHtructible republic, whose most glorious ohapter of history is tho record of the republican parly, congratulate their countrymen on the majestic march of tho nation Wider the banners Inscribed with the principles of our'platform of 1888, vindicated by victory ut the polls and prosperity In our fields, workshops and mines, and make the following declaration •ofprtnciples:

Wereamrm the American doctrine of protection. We call attention to lu growth abroad, we- maintain that tho prosperous condition of our country Is largely duo to the wise revenue legislation of the republican congress.

Wo bflllevo that all articles which cannot lie produced In the United Slates, except luxuries, should be admitted free of duty, ami that on all Imports coming in compel)lion with the products of American labor there should be'levied dnties equal to tho difference between wages abroad and at home.

We assert that tho prices of manufactured arUoIesof general'consumption have beon reduced undea tho operations of tlio tariff not of 1890.

We denounce the efforts of tho democratic majority of the house of representatives to destroy our tariff laws by piecemeal, as Is manifested by their attacks upon wool, lead ami lead ores, the chief products of a uuinber of states, and we oslt tho people for their Judgment theroon.

We point to the success of tho republican policy of reciprocity, under which our export trado has vastly Increased, and now and enlupged markets havo bceu opened for the products of our fnrms.and workshops. We remind tho people or the bitter opposition of tlio democratic party to this practical business 'meas ure, and claim that, executed by a republican administration, our present laws will event ually give us control of the trade of the world.

Declaration for Itiinetolllsm. The.Amerlcan jieople, from tradition and In. terest, favor bimetallism and the republican party demands the-use of both gold and silver as stundard money, with suoh rfcstric tlons and under such provisions, bo determined by legislation, us. will socuro tho maintenance of tho parity ol values of the two metals, so that tho purchasing and debt-paying power of the dollar, whethor of silver, gold or paper, shall be at all times equal. Tlie lnterests of the producers of the country, Its farmers and lu worklngmen, de-mand-that evtery dollar, paper or coin, issued by the government shall be ns good aB smother.

We commend the wise and patriotic steps ul ready taken by our government »o Bcrure an international conference to adopt such meas ures as will insure a parity of value between gold and silver for uso as money throughout the world.

Wo demand that every citizen of the United States shall bo allowed to cast one free tud unrestricted ballot in ull public elections, and that such ballot shall be counted and returned as cast that such- laws shall be enacted and enforced as will secure to every citizen, be he rich or poor, nativo or forclgi! born, white or black, this sovereign right guaranteed by the constitution. Tho free and honest popular ballot, the Just and equal representation of all tho people, as woll as their Just and equal protection under the laws, are the foundation of our republican institutions, and tho party will never relux its efforts until the inl.Tgrityof tbe ballot and tho purity oi elections shall be fully guaranteed and protecU'd In evory stato.

We'denounce tho continued inhuman outrages American citizens for polltlcertaln southern states of the

foreign Relations.

Wo favor tho oxtensloo of our foreign commerce, tho restoration of our morrhunt marine by homo-built ships and tho creation of a navy for the protection of our national Interests and the honor of-our flag: the^ mnlntcnunce of the most friendly relations with all foreign powers, entangling alliances with none: und the protection of the rights of our fishermen.

Wereafllitn our apprcA'alof tho Monroe doetrine and believe In the oclilovemcnt of the monlfest destiny of the republic in lis broadest sense.

We favor the enactment of more stringent laws and relations for the restriction of criml nal, pauper and contract immigration.

Wo favor eftlclent'legislatjon by congress to protoet the life and limb of employes of transportation companies engaged In carrying on In tor-stato commerce, and recommend legislation by tho respective slates that will protect omplojes ongagod In state commerce, In mining and in manufacturing.

Tha republican party has always been the ohamplon of tho oppressed and recognizes tho dignity of manhood, irrespectivo of faith, color or nationality 'It sympathizes with tho cause of homo rule In Irelaod, and»protests against tho prosecution of the Jews in Russia.

ThoulttmatorcUance of free popular government Is tho Intelligence of the people and the maintenance of freedom among men. Wo therefore declare anew our devotion to liberty of thought and conscience, of spocch an4 press, and approve allagencios and Instrumentalities which contribute to tho education of tho children of the land, but while Insisting upon the fullest measure of rcilglons liberty wo arc op posed to any union of church and state.

Opposition to Trusts.

We reufflrm our opposition declared in the re publican platform of 1888 to all combinations of capital, organized In trusts or otherwise, to control arbitrarily: the condition of trade nmong our citizens. We heartily indorso tho action already token-upbuthlB subject and ask for such further legislation as may be- required io remedy any dofects In existing laws and to render thoir enforcement more complete and ef-
