Row in South Carolina Convention.

Columbia, S. D., Oct. 24.—Last night the convention was enlivened by a hot war of words between Senator Tillman and Frank E. Gary, a delegate from Abbeville, during which the lie was passed. Gary charged that Tillman had entered into a secret combination to rush three new counties through the convention. Senator Tillman got very much excited at the untruth, as he called it. After the convention the gentlemen met and mutual explanations were made.
