Convention Hall. Philadelphia, Special.?The
crowds were slow in gathering
at the convention hall. When
shortly after 11 o'clock the band in the.
gallery awoke the echoes in the vast
reef space, there were not more than
1.000 persons in the great auditorium..
Put it was astonishing how rapidlythe
crowds began to arrive after that
hour. They poured in in steady .
streams until they blackened the acrc.<v
of scats. An unusually large number
were women, looking fresh and sweet
in their summer gowns. The leaders
were slow in arriving and it was not'
until Senator Hanna put in an appearance.
at 11:43, that the enthusiasm of
thousands was uncorked. He got a

tie full length of the hall, to the platform.
General Grosvenor. the whitebearded
old veteran, was immediately
( recognized, and he, too, got a cheer,
j Occupying prominent seats on the
I platform were four of the It men now
living who were delegates to the first
oAni'fmtinn r\f Pont?l\liptin r.r.rtv hplll !
in Philadelphia, June 17, 1S5C. All were
members of the regular Ohio delegation.
Three of them were prominent
in the anti-slavery fight that led to the
convention held in Pittsburg, Fcbrnary
22, 1856, which was in reality the precurser
of the Philadelphia convention
and these men, therefore, claim to be
among those who were chieliy instrumental
in forming the Republican
party. Cornelius N. Bliss, of New
York, got a scattering applause as he
came in and took his seat with the
New York delegation, and Senator
Piatt, of New York, got a popular
greeting. As the hour of noon ap
proached the delegates entered in a
solid stream and spread out over the
seats reserved for them. Meantime,
the band was playing popular airs and
the scene was impressive and animateed.
At noon Senator Hanna took his
seat at the chairman's table, but al;
though this was the hour set for callI
ing the convention, be waited a few
! moments, conferring with Secretary
i Dick, Senator Wolcott and ouers.
I At 12:27 the first pronounceu demonj
stration of the convention occurred,
i Governor Roosevelt came in through
! the main entrance and moved down
' the centre aisle. He wore his Rough
: Rider hat and was instantly recogniz!
ed. A deep, rberbrating cheer greeted
i him. Men jumped to their chairs tc
> cheer him and women fluttered their
handkerchiefs. Delegates crowded forward
to greet him as he moved through
the presS and his entrance, theatrical
though it may have been, was like that
of a conquering hero. He took .. s seat
immediately in the rear of Senator
Piatt and in front of Senator Depew.
Governor Taylor, of Kentucky, came ic
with Governor Bradley, of that State
! {hp former smiling and unruffled aftei
all his turmoil. Just across was Senai
tor Foraker with his hair tossed, look|
ing as though he had been having nard
conferences, while General Grosvenor,
looking like a patriarch, paced the

roving over the convention. At 12:3C
the band broke into the stirring strain;

to the national anthem. Instantly

wave of applause swept the hall.
Chairman Hanna faced the storm oi
applause witji a resolute lace. tin
ste: n features did not relax, but h<
nodded an acknowledgement as the
applause broke here and there into z
cheer. When it had subsided h<
brought down the ravel again.
"The convention will come to order,'
he shouted,, at exactly 12: P.".
"The convention will bo opened will

Gray Bolton, of the Hope Presbyteriar
Church, of Philadelphia."
Chairman Manna remained standing
with bowed head while the divine tanu
forward in the black robes of his office
to deliver his invocation, but tin
delegates in the pit remained sentec
and only here und there did one of tlu
spec tators rise. All, however, bowcC
their heads reverently while Rev. Mr
Bollcn read his prayer from small slip:
of raner which he lied in the liollov
of his hand.
As the prayer closed. Senator Hann:
was again on his feet, and adjusting
his eye glasses, said in a resonant,
voice:
"The secretary of the national corn,
rr.ittee will now read the call for the
convention."
As Col. Dick stepped forward, call in
hand, he was given a ripple of applause.
He trad the formal call, while
the vast assemblage fretted for the
more vital proceedings.
The remainder of the day's session
of the convention was devoted to
routine business, the appointment cf
committees, and other matters in detail.
Storms of. applause a-'coted the
name of McKlhley whenever mentioned.
The day's session closed by adjournment
at exactly 3 o'clock.
Second Day of the Convention.
Philadelphia, Special.-President McKinley
was not renominated at tne
session of the national convention
Wednesday. Senator Hanna threw up
the sponge. He found he could not
stem the tide of the popular favorite
without using the direct influence of
fhi? KlminiitPifinn nt Wrivlvil -ftfin.
And this he eouiu not go:. Possibly
even with it. he might have failed, P.u;
without it the task was hopeiess. The
President would have no hand in an
effort to control the convention. He
made known directly to Mr. Hanna his
wish that the will of the convention
should not be thwarted, and when that
unequivocal wcrd came. Mr. Hanna reluctantly
abandoned the fight. With
his retirement from the contest against
the Empire State Governor, both nominations
could have been been made
before the convention adjourned Wednesday.
The original programme was
to renominate McKinley and to nominate
the candidate for Vice President
Thursday, but the national Republican
committee had a compact with the local
Philadelphia committee to keep tho
convention Lere for three oays, ana it
was feared that if the norainantion for
President ?-as made *ho *wv<mtlon
mignt take tne on in its teeth and
wind up the proceedings before dark.
All the preparations for the President'3
nomination at this session had been
perfected. Hundreds of beautiful red,
white and blue pampas plumes, attached
to long staffs, had been taken down
into the delegates' pit before the convention
met. and there stowed away
against the inevitable moment when
the climax should be reached. As they
were carried into the pit by the ushers J
while the convention was assembling,
they recalled the magnificent scene a*
St. Louis four years ago when similar
plumes set the convention mad with
delight during the famous McKinley
demonstration. Knowing the temper
of the delegates and the crowds, Mr.
Hanna decided to take no risks. And
consequently the immense throngs
which blackened the vast amphitheater
were compelled to content themselves
with rotine incidents connected
with the permancnet orcanizat.ion. an
oration cj senator i-oage, tne permanent
chairman, and the scene which
attended the unanimous adoption of
the platform.

FORAKER NAMES McKINLEY.
The call of States was begun nnd the
first State yielded to Senator Joseph
Benson Foraker, of Ohio. Senator Foraker
made a ringing speech, in which
he said the Democratic financial policy,
like the "Lost Cause" of the Confederacy,*
ana its oZiTer policies had tTeen
buried too deep for resurrection. He
spoke of the record of the Republican
party and reviewed the great record of
the present administration. He denounced
the Democrats and declared
that the country demanded the re-nom
ination and re-election of William Mc
ivmiey.
ROOSEVELT'S SPEECH.'
Then Governor Theodore Roosevelt,
of New York, took the platform. He
was greeted by the most enthusiastic
cheering, and received an ovation that
lasted for five minutes. He said he rose
to second the nomination of President
MeKinley.
He was applauded at every word he
spoke, and was frequently interrupted
in the midst of sentences.
He was followed by Senator dojih*^
Thurs?on, of Nebraska, who also'made'
a strong speech, seconding McKinley's
nomination. Mr. Ycrks, of Kentucky,
also seconded the nomination.
The delegates called loudly, "vote!"
"vote!" but Chairman Lodge recognized
Mr. Knight, of California, who also
made a seconding speech.

every one voted for MeKinley.

GREAT ENTHUSIASM.
A storm of cheers' and applause
greeted the announcment of the vote.
Chairman Mark Hanna led the cheering
and franficallv waved a banner.
wli'le the hand played "Red, White and
Blue." The delegates with banners
marched around me hall, wildly cheering
for McKinley. It was an inspiring
and enthusiastic scene.
The nomination of vice-president
was declared next in order. Theodore
Roosevelt, of New York, was placed
in nomination by Young, of Iowa, sec
by Chairman Lodge, to be unanimously
adopted. The anounccment of

names fell from the chairman's lips.
Apparently Governor Roosevelt had
not expected to be thus designated and
his face showed signs of annoyance.
With Governor Shaw he stepped to Mr.
Lodge's seat and with the permanent
chairman between them they marched

to the "infamy in Kentucky," the delegates
from that State yelled their approval

references to the policy of the government
toward Cuba and the Philippines

FILIPINO PEACE CONFERENCE.
Leaders of the Insurgents Agree on
Terms.
Manila, by Csble.?Two hundred Filipinos
met Thursday morning in Manila
to determine honorable and decorous
methods for securing peace.
The results were submitted in the
evening to General Mac Arthur, who
accepted them.
The leaders of the meeting will use
their influence to induce Aguinaldo to
accept the arrangement. If they are
succos-ful as they hope to be, they believe
Aguinaldo will issue orders in
conjunction with the American autbor itigs
far the cessation of hostilities.
i ne meeting. wmcn was tne nrst 01
the kind since the days of the Filipino
congress, was composed of the distinct ly
revolutionary element, the "Americanistos"
being lacking.
Thirty political prisoners were re.
leased from jail in order to attend.
Senor Paterno presided and Senor Buencamino.
the originator of the movement,
Senor Flores, Gen. Pio del Pilar,
Gen. Garcia. Gen. Macabulos and other
prominent revolutionists were present.
It was pointed out that the questions
to be considered were military
and civil, the military being concerned
with a fessation cf hostilities and the
civil with the determination cf the political
status of the Filipinos. The im
mediate cojcct or me meeung was ia
efTect peace and subsequently the leaders
could consult with the civil commission
as to political matters.
It was evident that Senor Patera o
was convinced that he could obtain
Aguinaldo's sanction to a peace based
upon the following seven clauses,
which, after four hours, were unanimously
accepted as compilable with au
honorable peace:
1. Amnesty.
2. The return by the Americans to
the Filipinos of confiscated property.
3. Employment for the Tevoluticaary
generals in the navy and militia
when established.
4. The application of the Fillpinc
revenues to succor needy Filipino soldiers.
5. A guarantee to the Filipinos of
the exercise o! personal rights accorded
to Americans by their constitution.
6. Establishment of civil govern,
ments at Manila and in the provinces
7. Expulsion of the Friars.
The statement was vociferously acclaimed,
the entire assembly shouting
"expel, expel."
Chinese Situation.
London, By Cable.?The silence of
Pekin continues unbroken. Four thousand
men of the allied forces were
having sharp defensive fighting at
Tiea-Tsin, Tuesday and Wednesday,
with a prospect of being re-enforcod
Thursday. This is the situation in
China as set forth in the British government
dispatch. Eight hundred
Americans are taking part in the
fighting in Tien-Tsin, says the Shanghai
correspondent of the Daily Express,
cabling Friday evening, "and
they apparently form a part of a supplementary
force, arriving with Germans
and British after the conflict
started. It is impossible to estimate

they had a surprising number of
guns." This information appears to
have been brought by the United
States gun-boat Nashville to Che Fu
and telegraphed to Shanghai. The Chinese
are deserting Shanghai in large
numbers and going into the interior.
Reports from native sources continue
to reach Shanghai of anarchy in Pekin.
According to these tales the
streets are filled day and night with
Boxers, who are wholly beyond the
control of the Chinese troops and who
are working themselves up to a frenzy,
and clamoring for the death of all
foreigners. .
