CLEVELAND-THURMAN UNANIMOUSLY NOMINATED BY THE CONVENTION. - A Full Ktvjort o? tin; Moat Harmonious nnd ' EuthusiaBtic Convention!? Ever Holt! Tho TeoplVB ch)lco "Destiny ic "Ban dana" ST. Louis, Juno ti*.-Tho Demo-j orftth national convention to-day j bioko tho record for tbo Kr?ntest diaplny of enthusiasm over wit nos sod in a similar body. For over twenty consecutivo minutes 12,000 people Ulled the air of tho great convent len ball with a volition of undimhiishing applause, compara ble with nothing on earth, perhaps, save the roar of the falls of Niagara. It followed the utterance of these words: "I give you a name en twined with victory. 1 nominate (Hover Cleveland, ol' New York." The speaker was Daniel Dougher ty, of Tammany ball. With bead proudly erect, every libro ol bis features quivering, every nervo ol his nobly ligure tense, Ibo m agu if Iceilt-voieed orator was alternately thrilling the vast audience and holding them spell-bound, when, at the climax of his eloquence, he named for tho Hrs! time the mau who was uppermost in the i houghts of nil. Il was needless to utter an other word. Dougherty paused for a moment to ga/.e over the hun dreds of frantic cheering delegates and nt ibo even more frantic thou sands of spectator-; beyond. High i above tbt' fores! ol bends wits thc waving of innumerable roil hornill mis. Hats and cane.' were being pitched Into the air, while the cheer ing was becoming so terrille that no single enthusiast could hear his screech in the one overpowing gen eral yell, Al this moment in the mammoth picture of the capitol at Washington covering the wall fur above the platform ami in | hun view of the whole con vent ion, doors were seen lo swing back, ami tho smiling face of President Cleveland beamed out on bis admirers, livery body in the hall scorned fairly be sides himself willi excit emeu t. The stone bust ol (he President near the speaker's stand was crow neil wit li a wreath of green, snatched hy ut most frenzied hands from among the decora lions of the platform. 'Tho long poled state hu nr. ors among lologutos wore being whirl ?ed wildly in the air, when the con vention willi a mighty : Inuit dis -covered Daniel Dougherty climb ing OU the chair in the middle ol tho New Yorkers on the ll ?or. Ile was waving alofi an American Hug. As if moved by a common Impulse the stamin rd hearers ortho differ* cut st ut cs nil passed toward .New York, euch seeking to reach Dough erty's emblem with their tull stub's and toss it to the roof, At Ibis mo ment the hundred A mei lean ea gles ornamenting (he railings of tho gallery were being torn off, and their outstretched mimic wings, si x feet from Hp to tip, w ere (lap ping with tho assistance ol' the near est spectators-men ami women alike. lu sheer mercy lo the peo ple, Chairman Collins ul length in terposed, and. after repented efforts, directed their attention to the tall { Kentuckian who stood beside bim. Tlds gentleman, Delegate Macken zie, wits t > second the nomination ! . of Cleveland, ami aroused llio con .vention toa renewed outburst ul-1 rowet at tho llrst word by declaring | that there "wits hut one Democrat in the country more popular tbuii Cleveland-thc queenly woman ho has made bis wife." Again tho convention was in un uproar when the speaker gave fl brand new litio to Ibo lender of the Republicans the "Florentine Muutie from Maim-. Mackenzie moved to now sus pend tho rules, and made the nom ination of Clevoland absolutely un animous. Hut everybody wu* giv en A Chance, Then the thing was ?done with ono extraordinary bur rub. The other great feature of the .day Indite convention was Hie four .concerned struggle between tho Tburirnn men, the (?ruy men, the tariff reformers and the protective tariff element. Tho Thurman dole? gate? wen; eager to have Hw moni nation for Viet' President made ill once, while tho enthusiasm Was al fever lieut. They were reinforced * by tho tnrlff reformers, who were Incensed st tho delny of thc coin? milter on pint form, and eager to administer a rebuke. The dray men were using Fabian tactics, mid had nide nllies in the protection Ists, Roswell I?. Fowler, of Now York, mid Daniel NV. Voorhees, of Indiana, were the opposing leaders, the b/tler being regarded as the spokesman of ?Jray. Though out* numbered many times over, the phalanx under Voorheos was muk* ! lng a most determined light, con ti-a*ing every inch in tl way thal ? threatened to develop ugly feelings. \ .lust when things had a particular ly squally aspect, White, orCnli fern bl, in tho interest of the obi Kommt, poured oil on tho troubled \\ aters. The postponement asked for hy Voorheos was advocated by White on broad grounds lu a mun* uer as magnanimous as it was ex pected. Tho adjourn men I was in peace. Many left tho hall willi ?lark forebodings regarding what might luke place in (ho platform committee before Hie convention reassembled, hut the great majori ty of delegates fell to discussing on their way out from the bull tho e.\ elting details of their own proceed- ' lugs.
