The New York delegation Was the
last to enter, she pinned the Thur

assemblage rose on foot and gave her
hearty cheers. Bat Indiana Was not
dismayed and answered with'defiant
shouts and for somements confusion,
noise and excitement reigned.;
A letter was received from General
Black requesting that his name be with
drawn. Just before the convention
was called to order a loud whoop was
heard to come from the: upper gal
lery, and an enthusiastic: Gray man
Was seen to unfurl and allow to hang
fluttering down a roll of gray muslin
several yards in length, and the ad
herents of the Indiana candidate
Rewarded his efforts with a succession
of cries and hurrahs. Of course the
Thurman men could not let the inci

every shout for Gray.
The convention was called to order

THE PLATFORM.
The following is the platform:
The Democratic party of ' the
United States in national con

pledge of its fidelity to the Demo
cratic faith, reaffirms the platform
adopted by its representatives in the
convention of 1884, and endorses the
yiews expressed by President Cleve
land in his last earnest message ;.to
Congress as a correct interpretation
of that platform upon the question of.
tariff reduction. It also Indorses the
efforts of our Democratic representa
tives in Congress to! secure i a
reduction of excessive taxation.

its policy, not only avoided disaster,
but greatly promoted the prosperity

improvident and unwise policy of the
Republican party touching the public

porations and syndicates, alien and
domestic, and restored to tho p-jople

While carefully guarding the iiteres'?.
of the principles of justice - aafl

sions and bounties ta the- saxliers
and 6ailors of the rt public than
ever paid before during an . equal pe
riod. It has adopted and consist
ently pursued a firm and prudeat for
eign policy, preserving pe ca w;th all
nations while scrupulously mainta'ri
ing all the rights and interests of our
own government and people at Votes
and abroad. The exclusion from oajr
shores of Chinese laborers has boeh
effectually secured under tha provi
sions of a treaty, the operation of
which has been postponed bv the
action of the Republican majority in
the Senate. In every branch and de
partment of the government under
Democratic control the rights and
welfare of all the people have be sh
guarded aid defended; every pub
lie interest has been protected
and the equality of all our citis'fus
before the law without regard to race
or color has been steadfastly main
tained. Upon its record thus ex
hibited, and upon the pledge of a
continuance to the people of the
benefits of Democracy it invokes' a
renewal of popular trust by the re
election . of the chief magistrate
who has been faithful, able and pru
dent, and invokes in addition to that
trust the transfer also to the Democ
racy of the entire legislative power
The Republican- party, controlling
the Senate and resisting in both
Houses of Congress the leformation
of unjust and unequal tax la wa, which
have outlasted the necessities of war
and are now undermining the abun
dant prosperity of a long peace, deny
to the people equality before the law
and the fairness and justice which are
their right. The cry i of American
labor for a better share in the rewards
of industry is stifled with false pre
tenses; enterprise is j fettered and
bound down to home market?; capital
is discouraged with doubt wbe her the
unequal, unjust laws jc in ever be
properly amended or repealed. The
Democratic party will j continue with
all the power confided to it to strug
gle to reform these laws in accordance
with the pledges of its last platform
endorsed at the ballot-box by the suf
frages of the pe'ople of i all industries.
The free men of our land, the immense
majority, including every tiller of the
soil, gain no advantage from the ex
ceBBive tax laws, but the prioe o-
nearly everything they buy is in
creased by the favoritism of the un
equal svstem of taxation. All unne
cessary taxation is unjust taxation.
It ;b repugnant to the creed of the
Democracy that by such taxa'ion the
cost of the necessaries of life should
be unjustifiably increased to all our
people. Judged by Democratic prin
ciples the interests of the people are
betrayed when by unnecessary taxa
tion trusts and combinations are per
mitted to exist, which, while unduly
enriching, the few that ! combine, tend
to the robbery of our citizens by de
priving them of the benefits of ;natu
ral competition. Every Democratic
rule of governmental action is viola
ted when through unnecessary taxa
tion a vast sum of money, far beyond
the-neod3 of economical administra
tion, is drawn from ' the people and
the channels of trade and accumuia
ted as a demoralizing surplus in the
national treasury.
The monev now Iviner idle in the
federal treasury resulting from bu
perfluous taxation amounts to move
than one hundred and twenty fire
millions and the surplus collected 18
reaching the sum of more than sixty
millions annuallv. Debauched by this
immense temptation the remedy of
the Republican party ia to meet ana
exhaust bv extravagant appropria
tions and expenses, whether constUu-
tional or no', the accumulation oi ex
travagant taxation. l;he Democratic
policy is to enforce frugality in pno-
lic expense and abolish unnecessary
taxation. Our established domestic
industries and enterprises should not
and need not be endangered by the
reduction and correction of the ; bur
dens of taxation. Orf the contrary a
fair ami careful revision of our tax
lawc with due allowance for differ
ence between the wages of American
and foreign labor imuBt promote

opera!ioii8. In the interests of Aiuer
icftn. labor, which should in no event
bo neglected, the revision of our tax
laws contemplated by the Democratic
party should promote the advantage
of such labor by cheapening tho coit
of the necessaries of life in t'.e home
of every workingman and at the Fame
time seapring to him steady, remuner
ative employment.- Upou this j'io
tiou of tariff reform, so closely con
cerning every phase oi our national
life, and upon every question in-
volvei in the problem of good gov
ernment, tbe Democratic party sub
mits its principles and profocsiona to
tbo intelligent suffrages of the Amer
ican people.
At the conclusion of the
rea bn of the piriform, Mr."
Wa!,te- son addressed : the con
vention. ne was followed bj Sena
torGorman: He sa:d: We bring you a
pla'form on which Democrats may
stand wi hout feeling that they r.re
away from home. (Laughter aud ap
plause). Its items embrace? a doc'ar
avion of principles to wh'ch. Demo
crats may subscribe without going
arouud the corner. (Applause and
laughter.) It embodies a sla erunnt
of facta incontrovertible. It,- face ia
set in the right direction aud its eye
lock not to the setting ru-i. (Ap
plause) - Henceforward the Demo
cratic party, which has been the voice
of the people, will become i's hands.
(Applause.) But it will bo hands of
construction, not bauds of destruc
tion, and it will remove the occupants
from the house before it has taken off
the roof." (Applause.) Iu conclu
sion ne said : "Two good Ddmucrats
can never know anothf r wholly, nor
love one another until they have had
some fun with each other, and this
will furnish the reason, if any reason
is needed why I should now present
Senator Gorman, of Maryland."
Mr. Uorman rec ived a flattering
reception. Mr. Gorman said that he
would be buf of place in a Dvtuo
cratic convention if h i w.rc not sup
porting the principles of the Danio
cratic party upheld and practiced by
Grover Cleveland. Tho Democ ats
had made pledges of reform and a
tax reduction four yars ago,, and wa
have kept those pledges! We havr
now to face tho fact that a reduction
of taxation is imperative,, and we
must wipo out one bund ed million
dollars of the surplus. They cha ge
us with fiee trade, but we stand here
as honest men to reduce this im
mense surplus. We have prea.nhd
a platform in strict accordance with
all Democratic doctrine. As Mr.
WaUerson has Baid, it is one which
can stand. If during the campaign
we porfectly recognize - these prinei
plet, we can well ba sutscessfu!. With
such candor and such declaration, e
will go forth to battle, with the con
sciousness that we are b-:ing recog
nised and are more certain .of victory
than ever before.
x!r. Watterson movid that the n--po.-jt
of the committee be adopted,
which was agreed to by a unanimous
VOti.
Mr. Septi, of Pennsylvania, uader
instructions from the contuitteo on

in the Hou?e of Representatives. The
resolution was adopted aimd loud
applause.
Mr. Deb man, of Iowa, offered and
the convention adopted a resolution
in declaring for the admission of
Washington Territory, Dakota, Mon
tana and New Mexico in'o the Union.
On motion of Mr Abbett, of New
Jersey, the following resolution was
adopted :
llesolved, That we express our cor

people of all nations in their efforts
to secure for themselves the ihest ma-

civil and religious hbertv : and we

St. Lich, Mo., June 7. Senator
Gbrraan was seen at his rooms at the
Southern Hotel after midnight by a
reporter of the Associated Press. The
Senator paid that the meeting of the
committee on resolutions had been
very harmonious and that no substan
tially different views were held by
himself and Mr. Watterson upon the
question of tariff reduction. With
ihe exception of the ques ion of re
affirming the tariff platform of 1881,
there had been no division whatever
in the committee. "Both Jdr. Wat
terson and I" said the Senator, "have
made concessions in . the interest of
harmony. I think there will be no
minority report upon the platform. I
am sure that Mr. Watteison is en
tirely satisfied " "And,"' added the
Senator wi!h a smile, "I am satisfied
also with the result. Our labors have
now been practically concluded and I
expect that we shall be able to ad
journ early tomorrow morning."

iMr. Morgan asked leave to offer a
lorg preamble and a serieij of lesolu-
tious on the aubjnet of the peni'itg
fishery treaty and Mil "Vance moved
to refer them to the eomniitte rtn
foreign relation The preamble re
cites that thn i-po.t of the commit
tee on foreign t elation on the treaty
raises the qtie-tion whether the P.es
idant had autho ity to negotiate such
a t.eaty or to appoint plenipoten
tiaries without tbe p evions consent
of the Senate and the resolutions de
clare that the treaty has been duly
negotiated and is lawful and valid.
Mr. Morgan insisted that he had
a right to speak on the motion ta
refer and in spite of the objection cf
Mr. Sherman and the ruling of the
chair that he (Morgan) was out of
order, Mr. Morgan .proceeded, an
nouncing that be ir tended to make
this morning the speech which he
made in executive session, or, if the
Senate would give leave to ltave it
printed he would do so without de
livering it in the Sen ate -
The presiding officer, while ruling
Hr Morgan out of order, said thut he
had no means of enforcing his ruling.
That was for the Senate, not the.
chair.
Mr. Morgan, with apparent indif
ference to the ruling, proceeded with
the reading of printed slips of his
speech in the secret session. One of
the sentences of his speech was, "The
Senate ma y make war necessary, as I am
very much afraid we ace doing here
today."
In, an allusion to the Republican
Senators,' Mr. Morgan said that the
only' preparation which they were
making for war was an attempt to en
list the sympathies of disaffee'ed
subjects of "Her Majesty. Their ac
tion, he said, was doubtless with ' the
view of exciting and antagonizing
voters to the President because of
his alleged subserviency to British
influences. That the charge rankled
wite injustice. Congress, he said.
had'given to the President the power
which all Presidents had poss-sed
since 1850 to wage a paper war on
British commerce and had then tood
by to see whether the President
would push that paper war into the
category of real war. If he had
done so: the country would have
cried out for hia impeachment,
but having failed to do so, he was
charged in the report of the majority
of the committee on foreign relations
with abuse of his constitutional power
because he had sought to find a peace
able way to get the rights claimed by
the United States. And a threat had
been made by the committee of future
dealing with the President, held in
reserve for the time' being.
Mr. Morgan finish el reading at 1.50
and the resolutions went over without
action.
After some routine business the
F"ate, at 2 p. m , adjourned till Mon-

After a few reports from commit
tees the House went into committee
of the whole on the tariff bill. Mr.
Dingley,' of Maine, opened the battle
by speaking in opposition to Mr.
Breckenridge's amendment of yester
day tothe proviso attached to- the
lumber schedule of the free list,
which! proposes to admit Canadian
fish free of duty upon the allowance
by that country of commerdal rights
to our vessels and also for reciprocity
in the exchange of prodic! f between
the United States and CanagU. A long
debate followed on which a good deal
of heat was developed, principally on
the Republican side.
Mr. Anderson, or lows, won ap
plause from the Democratic side by
declaring his belief that American in
dustries were now full-grown an l that
we should throw open the gatea and
challenge the world to competition.
He denounced trusts and maintained
that the Mdls bill was the b1 meas
ure that had yet b oa p o.uuted.
Constant interruptions were made by
the Republicans, but 3lr. Anderson
was ready in repartee t and delighted
the Democrats by telling the Repub
licans that they had drifted into bad
ways, not because they were willing,
but because they were led by the bad
masters and sophists.
Politics cot the upper band after
this and several telegrams and bulle
tins were received as part 01 tne
speeches.
Mr. Cox read the announcement oi
Thurman's nomination and a scene 0:
wild confusion followed. Nearly
every able bodied Democrat was on
his feet shouting and cheering, and
bandannas, which had not been so
prominent this morning, mysteriously
appeared in every hand. One enthu
siast tied one to the suck 01 an urn

the excitement by calling oat in
voice broken with emotion "I have

Finallv. br Mr. Mills' effort, the
House was brought back to the on
sideration of the pending amend
ment. Mr. Dingley ' amendment of
yesterday was first amended and then
ifieced ontiiely.- Several other
amendments were offered land re
