By Teletraph to the If ew and Obterrer.
I Chicago, lit, Jane 22. The con-'
tention has reached that stage itt
which all interest in its prooeedinas
culminates. The decks ha re beonp
cleared foe action and the battle ror
al is about to begin. What the first:'
ballot will d solose is already known
The absorbing curiosity is to know
what the third or fourth or fifth bal
lot will show. ?
I The meet who pall the wires have-J
been up nearly all night and the air of
the convention hall as it begins to fill;
is full of rumors, theories and blindi
guesses. Sherman loomed up la,st
night because of the great demon
ntration which Foraker'B econd of ;
Gen. Has ling's nomination of the
Ohio Senator s name pioroked, but
there was a foeling in the city that
Sherman would win today and if he
does not win today he cannot win at
all. Yesterdays demonstration is
generally believed to be more of a
Foraker room than a Sherman, boom
bn( no one can separate the shout?
for the Senator from the enthusiasm
for Foraker.
iSenator Quay, of Pennsylvania,
who was at work for Sherman until
the small I hours of the morning,
cqmes jnto the convention hall
with' a weary and anxious air.
The Pennsylvania delegation is hard
toi handle and there have been
stories, current all the morning that
the Harrison people have succeeded
in; making a strong impression there,
and it is openly boasted that Quay
cannot hold his men for Sherman
longer than, three ballots and that
most of the Filler vote will go to
Harrison after the first ballot. But
wth all the talk and chatter and nodi
and winks of the knowing ones who
think" they have the straight tip the
convention meets with no new known
?uantity to Bolve the puzzling prob
em -before it. .
Te men who are seeking to pre
vent a great stampede at the start
bat who are ecfually anxious . to pre
vent the nomination of any other
maaf are watchful but nervous and
anxious. They possess sympathy
and at critical moments would have
the support of Chairman Estee,
whose voice nearly gave out yester
day in his efforts to qull the pande
monium which: followed Foraker'B
appearance. !j The delegates do not
oome in promptly. This was antici
pated. They are being wrestled with
or are themselves engaged in mis
sionary work, while the leaders have
been seeking to get together and
agree npon some satisfactory ticket
This big floral emblem inscribed with
the legend No rebel flags surren
dered while am -riTsraor"-which
appeared! alongl with the Sherman
Foraker demonstration of yesterday,
has been removed front the conven
tion hall stage, vhete it was plaoed
yesjterdayi It may Berve its purpose
at some future time. The pressure
for admission for outsiders is so great
that its influence can be felt in the
auditorium room itself. Those who
get; n are excited over their efforts
to get through the crowd and con
vince the doorkeepers that their
tjekets are all; right j
There has been a row between the
local committee and the sub-committee
of the national committee having
charge of thai tickets, ! and Chairman
Clarkson of the former and Sergeant-at-Arms
; Fitzsimmons have had an
encounter over the dispute in which
it is asserted that blows were passed.

the hall and seats are very sensitive.

the candidates ' appeared, and was
distributed ixi the seats early this
morning, but j as soon aa the charac

they were all collected by t he qshers

Chairman Eetee's desk was redeco-
ratea witn cut nowcrs this mornmcr

of roses and begonias. The chair-
man wants to pteep up ms recora ana
compel the convention to come to or

rives it is doubtful whether he will be
able to do so. f
The convention misses the genial
and heretofore familiar face of Chaun-
cey 31. Depew. who does not come in

TBI COXTIXTpn CALLED TO. OKDEB.
Alew moments past 11 o'clock, the
convention was called to order by
chairman Estee, ; who, having com
pletely lost his voice, called Senator
mscpcK to ine cnair to preside over
the session, which was formally
opened with prayer by Rev. J. LL
Worcester, of Chicago. The conVen
t ion at once proceeded to a call of
States for a ballot for President. When
the vote of Tennessee was announced
a poll of the State was again de
manded. The request was greeted
with hisses. When the poll began
one of the delegates said he arose to
a question of privilege and said he
was here under positive instructions
to vote for Blaine. A delegate called
attention to the fact that Tennessee
was 'not spealing on a question of
privilege and was violating the rules.
The chair sustained the point cf
order,
During the call of the roll the con
vention was at first disoosed to be
come boisterous and cheer as the votes
were announced., There was a very
enthusiastic outburst when California
voted solidly lor Blaine, bat finally.
having found that these demonstra
tions were delaying the announcement
of the.' result, the convention's curi
osity overcame its enthusiasm, the
confusion was considerably abated
and the call proceeded in, good order.
The result of the ballot, as an
nounced, was.:

ItTh second ballot was then pro

mntof votes the Convention was
mors tedate than it had been at any
time during the jiessioa. Spectators
and aelegates were jtoo mucn mter-
estesiin noticing changes from the
previohs ballot to make any demon
atration. Senator . Quay had evident-
j dae kopd work among the
Pennsylvania de'egates last night.
Shennan j gained 24 votes from
that Slate, most of tnem being votes
whicb', on the first ballot, had been
cist f o Fitler. This was the most
import'tni 'event of ' the ballot and
considerably elated the Sherman men,
whogMtd been disappointed at the
vote for their favorite on the nrst
ballot t
Fitlel was withdrawn and
Feunsyivania gave 53 votes to
Shermafo. Connecticut scattered
her votes also, .4 going to Alli

During the thunder storm last

bridge at this place at least twice and
frobably three times. One of the
arge sleepers, size about five by
twelve or fourteen inches, was splin
tered into kindling wood. The dam

Mr. George H. Chapio, a wealthy
and enterprising Bostonian, has pur
chased about "thirty acres of land in
the suburbs of Greenville, 6. C. It
is Mr. Chapin's purpose to build a
large house on the place and make it
a winter home, as well as the show
place of the State, especially in fruits
and flowers. He proposes to set out
for this purpose 100,000 rose plants,
that will make the picturesquely situ
ated acres a blooming paradise., It
is intended that the place shall not
only be a pleasant winter residence
for its owner, but an illustration of
what can be done in Southern homes
by care and good taste. Mr. Chapin
predicts si large emigration from New
England to South Carolina.
; Dlverce In Egypt.
A lecturer told Gotham art stu
dents the other evening that he
thought "divorce was more common
among the Egyptians than with any
other people. If the Eirvptian
wished to divorce his wife, he simply
bad to tell her he was tired of her.
The husband ; had to pay alimony for
three months after the divorce, and
the woman was at liberty to marry
again. The man might if he wished,
marry the woman a second time or a
third time,' bat the Egyptians drew
the '.line at the third marriage. A
fourth marriage could be arranged
only by the woman first marrying and
getting divorced from some other
man."
The rabbit pest in New Zealand is
said to be j constantly increasing in
seriousness in spite of the persistent
efforts made by the government and
the farmers to eradicate it. They re
duce, it is said, the feeling capacity
of the land one-third, while the
of the sheep have decreased by one
pound to one and One-half pounds
each, the number of lambs decreased
from 30 to 40 per cent, and the death
rate increased from 3 to 13 per cent.
It is hoped that the increase in the
population and the cultivation of the
country will drive out the pests in
time. v

Hon. Morris M. Estee, the per
manent chairman of the Republican
national convention, is a western
Pennsylvanian by birth, and is fifty
five years old. He was a miner, but
has for a lond time been a prominent
San Francisco lawyer, being the au
thor of a work on code practice. It
was through him that Newton Booth
was nominated for Governor. Whenj
Senator Farley was elected Mr. Estee
received the vote of the Republicans.
His sentiments are against the cor
porations. In Republicanism he is
much of an independent. He is iden
tified, like Gen. Stoneman, with the
.agricultural interests, and has a 200
acre vineyard in Napa county. In
1882 Mr. Estee was nominated by the
Republicans for Governor of Califor
nia, but was defeated by Republican
disaffection on account of the Sunday
law, Gen. Stoneman, the Democratic
oaadidate, being elected bv a small
majority. He was named for United
States Senator in the California leg
islature in 1885, bat Mr. Stanford se
cured the prize. Mr. Estee went to
the Pacific coast from Pennsylvania
twenty-five years ago.

Chicago, III., June 22. Late last
evening the Blaine procession marched
into the rotunda of the Grand Pacifio
Hotel .with a, band of music and
hoisted their ; transparencies. The
cheering was tremendous, tin horns,
flags, canes, umbrellas and hats help
ing on the general enthusiasm. The
Gresham procession bad returned to
the hotel only a few minutes before,
and some of the Gresham men did not
relish the Blaine enthusiasm. They
went jto the gresham rooms, and
brought ou t a couple of transparencies
used in the parade and hoisted them
to counteract the cheering for the
man from Maine. The din now be
came frightful. The big rotunda was
one solid mass of humanity,
men standing cn chairc, lounges and
wherever they could obtain a foot
hold. Cheers for Blaine and counter
cheers for Gresham rent the air until
Clark Street became impassable from
crowds trying to get into the hotel.
Hats W6re hoisted on canes and um
brellas, and amid the din the old
campaign cry of ""Blaine, Blaine, Jas.
G. Blaine" coujd be heard like the yell
of a marching army. Sympathy
seemed to be evenly divided and
when the Blaine noise faltered the
Gresham men cheered like mad.
Suddenly a man carrying a Blaine
transparency ras hoisted on the
shoulders of a group of enthusiats
and from this eminence he waved the
name of the Plumed Knight. The
crowd went wild. Then the Gresh
am men did the same and -for twenty
minutes there was a rivalry to see
which motto could be placed highest.
Men pulled off their coats, climbed on
top of each other and waved the
names of Blaine and Gresham within
a few feet of each other. If one mot
to fell it was grasped by a score of
hands and sent aloft again. Finally
the Blaine man reached the capital of
a pillar. His banner was
now highest but the Gresham
fellow, more of a sailor, climbed np
his pillar to a projection above the
capital and pushed his banner against
the ceiling. The crowd went wild.
He had hardly descended when thj
pack of Blaine men set upon him and
in a second every vestige of linen was
torn from the frsime he earned. The
Gresham men retalia'ed and the
Blaine banner was only saved by be
ing rushed out through a cigar store.
In the melee partisans pounded one
another in the face and several of the
men were knocked to the floor. Po
licemen in vain tried to force their
way through the dense crowd, but
before they reached the combatants
the struggle was over. In revenge
two Gresham men men climbed up and
fixed their favorite's pictures on the
highest points of the pillars and left
them there. Such a scene was never
known in Chicago before. Last night
was tne last occasion many of tne
"clubs" had to Bhout for their favo
rite candidates, and they made the
most of it The Alger clubs paraded.
The Sherman forces were oat, and the
Gresham clubs repeated their tour
of the principal streets with half a
dozen bands and myriads of torch-r
lights. The principal Gresham dem
onstration was composed of a large
number of workingmen armed with
tin dinner pails and spades, who pa
raded headed by the Topeka Flam
beaux Club. '
Blaine processions were not want
ing either during the evening.

The next meeting of the North
Carolina Press Association, which
will be held at Morehead City, July
18th, will possess one distinctive
mark of difference from many of the
previous meetings, viz: No one will
be recognized as a member who is not
an editor or publisher of a paper,
supported by subscription and advertising-
There will be no "hangers
on" to bring discredit upon the Asso
ciation, and if such, by misrepresen
tation or otherwise, succeed in reach
ing Morehead City, sll courtesies will
thereafter be discontinued. It is the
sincere desire and intention of the
secretary to make this meeting, so far
tn mm lies, a representative meet
ing of newBiaper 1 and to that
end he would moar Vrnestlv urtre
the attendance of-Vwery editor in

forgetting the mistakes of the past,
resolved to place the North Carolina

plane of usefulness that will com
mand the proud admiration of its
