Blaine is not a Candidate before! this ! convention unless by and withij the consent of at least four of thel leading candidates now before it. Hel will not be placed in nomination un-f dot i any ; circumstances and his friends trust that bis friendsj in. the contention will, refrain! ironi voting for him until everyf other man hast had au portrnityj for a nomination. As I said we wast at least four of the presidential can-l the claims they m&j have upon thef convention! and make Blaine their candidate as nearly unanimously aj j ossible. liis Maine friends, Uon cressman Uoutelle .ana air. Manly,; will: insist on this and they are snp-l ported by every clear-headed, honest friend of Blaine. Of course therej are a few hot-heads here as there arec most anywhere and they are attempt-! ine to force thing's, but such a morel wuli be deprecated by those whe understand Blaine's relation to this convention in, view of his letters, The chief reason for the caucus las evening was to obviate anything con template! wmcn mignt iook as it ni name was being forced on the con vention. f At this meeting of Maine delegates have mentioned I foucht for soma length of time to .combat any rash o foolish action on the part of hi J riends an4 then I was called in iol gether with several other gentlemen who are nqt delegates and therefor! had no right to a place in the caucusl I can now Bay to you that there wilt be no stampeding. Other candidates must have their - day in the conven tion and then if there is no nominal tion, and th representatives of af laaat four candidates conclude thaf Blaine is the onlv solution of thi dilemma they can ndminate him an$ 1 have , no doubt be will accept Bat we must have it practically unani imous or we wont listen to it. At any rate we ; are intent on holding down thos whose blind fidelity to Blaine would make it appear that he wisueu 10 putaia a nomination ty an tagonizing other candidates. They are all his friend and he would not think for a moment of destroying this interests of a single one of them. We do i not want the nomination fdjr Blaine unless tve get it as I have indi cated and ho one will labor harder tjb prevent any thoughtless or hasty ac tion than I will or his friends in the Maine delegation. This is why they of $U owaUtate have peremptorily re used to C4?t single vote for him untess the conditions exist which 1 1 have poiiited- out T As for myself, though I am a personal friend of Mr. lilame, Mr. Harrison and X know that New York;is Almost solidly for hiin and will so remain." f The sub-committee of ih'e cauc&s remained in session alter tne main body adjourned. The sub-committee. it is understood, is in reality a Blaine 'steering ? committee ; to whom tJlaine men on the noor wm look lor direction a. Half a dozen men compete this committee and along with them ire i'owell Glttyton, Greed Hammond ahd Charles .aiory Smith. Just before 11 o'clock this morning a messenger 14ft the room hurriedly and soon returned with S. JlFessenden and" J. 8. Clafk- son- Both of these gentlemen had apparently retired for the' night and had only: come to the meeting bn argent summons. j 10 a. m The Sherman tide which pet in yesterday flows, on this morning and it will reach its Hood on the second ballot today. The situation is critical for all the other candidates and the manipulators , of the Blaine movement are disconcerted and hive lest their: confidence. New York Can stem' the feher man tide if the delega tion front that State desires to prevent his nomination. The question is now, Can New York effect his nomination if the delegation desires to do so? Ih brief, without New York's support it does not; appear that Sherman Ijias any chance at ail- His friends claim that Sherman will get New York, and that is the situation in a nutshell. Senator Hiscock said to an Associa ted Press; reporter a few moments ago: "KewiYOrk will vote for Harrisonaa long as he has a fair chance of suc cess. Should Harrison become Im probable New York will consider tiherm'ani New York has not decided yt; we expect to stand by Harrison Hi several ballots." ! i At 10 o'clock the band is playing and the California delegation areiun f (irling the celebrated blue bafiner bearing the inscription, "Blaine Jand protection, in large gold letters. This indicates that they intend to ilafeh it over the convention atl the proper time. Just when and under 1 what circumstances they may cupose to Bpi'lng it on the convention re mains to be seen. There are other indications besides this significant ban ner incident which show that a few of the Blaine people propose to (oake tiheir final effort today, but there is reason to believe that this efforf will, fail, some of liiaine s friends hav given up all hopes of his nomination. ; a.1 tnree minutes past 11 oeiocar the convention was called to order by Chairman Katee, who was agan in good voice. The convention tueets with almost absolute certainty thai Blaine is entirely out of the ratijb and that all the candidates must cofcibrne to prevent the impending nomioatitJn of bheman. The proceedings were opened by prayer by Rev. Arthur HARRISON Edwards,- of Chicago. Evidently there is some occasion for delay, for as soda as the prayer was concluded Chairman; Estet i the little elec tric bell and star. d the band. ; Mr. House, of Virginia, arose and said he desired to offer a resolution regulating the order of balloting u th convention which would proh bit tap casting 01 any voie ior. anj did ate -'ho ha 1 not been r?!'ilni'ly piftceu in nomination . f before the con vent'on. The chairman rulei'thai, thi c 'iIJ npjt be done, as nothiog was except balloting.

If there wme any speeches to be made he wautnd to make one for Blaine. Applause The chatrmm said that be uuur stjiod the gentleman from Maine de sited to make a privileged announce raijnt, and he was given the tloor. He mounted : the platform and said : "I Cud myself somewhat embarrassed in being thrown even into a semblance of-antagonism to the representatives o that delegation from the great Pacific elcrpe who have come here manifesting such devot:on to the chieftain i whose banner 1 have fol lowed with pride antf" affection these many years. Applause. I would lik;e, were the occasion appropriate afcd did I feel it proper, in view of the courtesy to which I am indebted for an appearance here at all, to -pre face the announcement I am about to make with some explanatory remarks. I : -shall hot attempt to do so. No one in this, convention, no one in this magnificent auditorium has any doabfc as jto where the affection, devo tion and allegiance of the Republicans of Maine have been and always will be. (Applause). No one here will doubt the regret with which I dis: charge the duty imposed upon me, but, Mr. 1'resident and gentlemen of the cokventioi, I am under con straint which I dO not feel at liberty to epeak of and without attempting to gre construction or interpreta tion of my own to the language of oul better: than I am by far to judge, discharge my humble duty as a representative 01 tne piarne delegation by presenting to you without preface or comment the 1 ol lowjmg dispatch which I have received. Mr; lloutelle read two cablegrams. The first was dated at Edinburgh, June 24, j to Boutelle and Manly at Chicago: j "Earnestly request all my friends to respect my Paris letter." The second was dated today and said: "I think I have the right to ask my friends; to respect my wishes and refrain from voting for me. Please make this and the former dispatch public, j James G. Blaihe." After the applause and confusion whloh followed Boutelle's announce ment had died away, the convention proceeded to the, sixth jb&llott. Lit? tie excitement was occasioned by the roll call outside the usual tuurmurs of applause, when California again cast ner solid vote for Blaine, until Ohio was called and Gov. Forakei announced forty-six votes for Sher man. Then a delegate arose and challenged, the correctness of the an nouncement. The chairman wanted the name of the delegate and there being delay occasioned by the efforts of Gov. Fioraker and others of the delegation to persuade their colleague to with draw his challenge, the- chair stated that unUss the name was given the announcement would stand. J. B. liuckey arose and announced hie hame and insisted upon a poll. The result of the poll was 45 votes for Sherman and one vote for Harris on, which was cast by Mr. Lucky himself, i The result of the ballot W43 a8follows: t ; SIXTO BALLOT Arkansas, Alger 14.

Mr. Henderson, of Iowa created a sensation by rising in his Beat and ml 1-1 1 - withdrawing the name of Senator Al lison, Mr. Henderson spoke briefly and to the point. He said that he thanked the friends of Senator Alli son for their support and 'with his authority withdrew his name. It at once became rumored that the Alli son strength would go to Harrison and not to Sherman as the Sherman people were claiming in the morning. Assurances which were received soon after withdrawing Allison that his vote would go to Harrison took the last show from Sherman, and Quay, finding that the game was up, told his friends to fall in line, and as soon as it became known that New York would not, now that his nomi nation was in sight, desert Harrison, there was no longer any doubt of the result and the reading of the roll be gan. HAREH0N NOMINATED. Harrison was nominated after the Tennessee vote had been settled. Only a single vote stood by Sherman in Pennsylvania, and after that State's vote the Harrison movement became a land-slide. The ballot resulted : EIGHTH BALLOT.

The result was received with bursts of applause and the great audience rose to its feet and shouted until it had tired. One of the officers of the convention climbed on the chairman's desk and waved a banner bearing the portrait of Harrison Ladies in the gaUeries waved their handkerchiefs and parasols, and hats were thrown up and a scene of enthusiasm fol lowed. Cries of "He's all right" were heard in the din. . Finally, with three cheers for Harrison, the convention became quiet enougn to near a mo tion. 1 Gov. Foraker then took the plat form amid enthusiastic applause and Baid : Gentlemen of the Convention: The delegation from ; Ohio came here all Sherman men; they are now all Harri son men. Applause. It is easier for us to be bo when we remember that Gen. Harrison had the good sense to be born in Ohio. Laughter J I am directed by the unanimous vote of the Ohio delegation to move that the convention on behalf 'of the State of Ohio that the nomination of GenJ Benj. Harrison be made unanimous (Applause). "Mr. Horr, of Michigan, seconded Gov. Foraker'a nomination. He noted that the convention would be unani mous. "We will stand by Harrison just as firmly as 'we stood by Alger. Some people do not think that we knoweverything but J think that I can see the hand of ovidenee in thislnomination. We hoped to place a soldier at the head of the ticket It has done it. Now let us go home and ratify it." Senator Farwell, on behalf of Illi nois, also seconded the motion of Foraker. Mr. Depew made his way to the platform and said: "This convention would adjourn in a different temper from any other convention in a quar ter of a century. No candidate be fore the convention expected to suc ceed and no one was disappointed. The candidates would go away with out heart-burnings but as full of en thusiasm as they were when they came here. New York was the cos mopolitan State of the Union. Men of other States, whenever they got too big for their own commonwealths went to New York and when New York found a man too large for his own oommonweath andhe would not move, she adopted him. New York had adopted Benjamin Harrison and voted for him solidly. (Applause). In conclusion, Mr. Depew predicted an old time victory for the Republicans, for Republican principles and for the salvation of the industrial interests of the country (Applause). Mr. Hastings, of Pennsylvania, said that be was also authorized to second the motion to make the nomination unanimous. Pennsylvania had 100, 000 majority for any candidate and it has that, and perhaDS more, for liar- , . X A rison. Henderson, of Iowa, also seconded the motion. He was sorry now for the quill-drivers in Democratic sanc tums. They could find no weak place in Harrison's record, no stain on his character. He was a great man, who would measure up to the full dignity of the occasion. Iowa sent him today to Bay that that great Re publican State will stand now firmer than ever at the head of the Republi can column. Boutelle, of Maine, cave assur ance of heartiness, cordiality and en thusiasm with which the people of Maine would ratify Benjamin Harri son. lie promised that tne old re frain would come down from Maine as it did in days gone by, when an other Harrison was in the field ; "Oh, have you beard the news from Maine, How she went, hell bent, for Gover nor Kent and Tippocanoe and Tyler too T" (Applause and laughter). He promised his State to the Kepub, lican party and declared that in the fore front of the battle would be found gleaming as it had in every critical fight of the Republican party the white plume of our Henry of Na varre, lhis declaration was the sig nal for an uproar of applause and cheers, which continued for some time. When Boutelle had concluded his speech there were calls for Creed Hammond, of California, and when he mounted the platform he was gen erously, applauded. He uaid that while his heart was glad that a nomi nal ion had been reached, before he said anything about the candidate he wanted to return thanks to the ladies of Chicago for their gifts of flowers to the California dele gation There had been some ques tion as to whether it would be wiser to nominate a soldier or a statesman. The convention had given to the party a cand da'e who combined the qualities of both. He did not think there would be much need for epeech- maiung in mis ngnt. rne Uemo oratic party was at last making its fight under its true colors. It had adopted the badge of slavery, the red bandanna. It was a banner which no virtuous woman loved and no brave man ever fought 'Under. The great party of the country, which saved the country under the stars and stripes, would again march to victory under the old banner which was now flung to the breeze to meet the old bandanna. Mr. Davis, of Minnesota, in flowery remarks on behalf of Minnesota, also seconded the motion to make the nomination unanimous. The chairman then read a dispatch he had received from Russell A. Al ger, requesting him to convey his sin cere thanks to the delegates who had so loyally supported him, and declar ing that no State or man would give the gallant gentleman who had won the fight a heartier support than Michigan and himself. "He's all right" ended the dispatch, and the Alger men in the convention cheered loudly at the old well-known refrain. After the convention had been ad dressed by Wise and Mahone of Vir ginia, Proctor of Vermont, Lynch of Mississippi, ihurston of Nebraska, Harris of North Carolina, Williams of Arkansas and Bradley of Kentucky, all in the same strain, the chairman put the motion of Mr. Foraker, Which was adopted with a shout and the chairman declared ex Senator Harri son the unanimous nominee of the convention and of the party for Preei dent. THE VICE PRESIDENCY. Mr. Thompson, of Ind ana, thought that it was desirable for the conven tion to take a recess, and he therefore moved one until 5 o'clock, this after noon. . xne cnairman stated mat tne mo tion was not seconded and directed the clerk to call the roll of States for tne presentation of names of nomi nees for the Vice-Presidency. The clerk proceeded to call the roll amid much confusion occasioned by the frantic efforts of the chair men of various Southern delegations to persuade the chairman that they had seconded the motion. Mr. Houk, of Tennessee, finally succeeded in getting recognition from the chair and renewed the motion, that a re cess be taken until 5 o'clock. The motion was seconded by Bev eral States, but the convention by an overwhelming vote declined to ad- j&urn and went on with the regular order, tne placing in nomination or of the candidates for the Vice-Presi dency nomination. Wall, of Pennsylvania, joined in seconding Bradley's nomination. Atkinson, of Michigan, on behalf of a large part of the Michigan delega tion, seconded the nomination of Bradley. When New Jersey was called, ex- Senator Sewell stated that it was the intention of New Jersey to present the name of William Walter Phelps for the Vice-Presidential nomination. There would be, he said, some brief seconding speeches, and as the mem bers of the convention were tired, he would move a recess until G o'clock. This motion was, at 3.05, agreed to. THE HOME STRETCH. That the interest in the convention had almost entirely died away with the Presidential nomination today was manifested this evening by the array of empty seats in the galleries which previously have presented an attractive picture of handsome toilets and kaleidoscopic colars. The mem bers of the various delegations were early in their places evidently anx ious to complete their business and return to their respective homes. The convention reassembled at 10 minutes past Bix and proceeded to the regular order, the presentation of names for the Vice-Presidential nomination. Mr. Griggs, of New Jersey, pre sented the name of William Walter Phelps- Mr. Fuller, of North Carolina, sec onded the nomination in the name of the young and progressive Republi cans of North Carolina- (Applause). 1 15 Cries of vote and general con fusion. Roll call proceeds. 1.18 Speers, of North Carolina, rose and claimed that North Carolina had not been called. Amid great laughter the clerk called North Caro lina. 1 19 Speers, of North Carolina, seconds Morton in a highly humorous speech.

The conference report on the bill for an international marine conference to Becure greater Bafety for life and property at sea; was presented and agreed to. j The fishery j;reaty and Mr. Mor gan's resolution on that subject, which were on the order of business for today were allowed to stand over informally in the absence of Mr. Hoar, who is entitled to the floor. After a brief executive session Mr. Harris addressed the Senate on the resolution to refer the President's an nualjmessage. He declared the ex isting revenue system to be vicious, nos to say criminal In re-ad- t'usting the system an effort should ie made, he said, to make it least oppressive to the largest num ber of people. ; Contrasting the reve nue from spirits with that of im ported goods, he argued that out of every dollar collected on spirits 97 cents went into the treasury, while, in the case of protected imports,f or every dollar that went into the Treasury ,$7 in bounty was paid to home manu facturers. He asserted that capital and not labor is the chief, if not the only, beneficiary of protection. Adjourned. : Hon be.

Several bills relating to the district of Columbia were then passed and the ! House took up the bill to secure to actual settlers the public domain.! The remainder of the day was spent in detailed consideration of a large number of amendments which were offered, when the bi'l wasloBt before the House. A long discussion was had upon the proposition to . retain in the United States the title to coal or min eral land within the limits of lands granted to railroad companies, but the entire third section of the bill was laid aside for further act ion. A material amendment to this was first adopted at the instance of Mr. Pay son, of Illinois, restricting the issue of patents to mineral lands to citizens of the United States. Without progressing further than the fourth section the House at 5 o'clock took a recess till 8, the even ing session to be for the further con sideration of amendments to the bill.
