C o o " o CLEVELAND & STEVENSON OFFICIAL NOTIFICATION OF THEIR NOMINATION A Grand Speech From tbe Next Presldenl-Lower Taxes and No Force Bill tbe issues-More Tbau Tblrtv Thousand People Are Present. NkwYokk, July 21. Orovcr Cleve land aud Adlui E. Stevenson have been officially notified that thev arc the choice of t lie democracy of this great country to lead it either to victory or defeat.- The notificuticiM ceremonies took place last night in the presence of a crowd of people that surpassed in en thusiasm and numbers even that vast throng that on SeptcmlKT i, 1888, at the same place, gave greeting to Allen 0. Thurman. The great amphitheater ol Madison Square garden was crowded as it never has been before and a thous and and odd electric lights twinkled in wonder as they looked down from their lofty perches upon the sea of heads and gesticulating speakers. - Whea the doors were opened the peo ple overrode the police, clubs and all. They made one frantic rush lor the seats, and in the remarkably short space of ten iniiiuics no me room in me uunuing mat remained vacant were the reserved seats on the platform and boxes. Mr. Stevenson was. the hrst to appear. but Mr. Cleveland soon followed. Alter waiting some time to be heard, anil for I ha uproar of the applause to subside, Mr. Cleveland arose aud Mr. Wilson notified him in a speech of ten minutes' duration that he hail been nominated lor the Presidency. (Mr. Cleveland responded: Mk, Chairman anp Gknti.hmkn': -The message you deliver from the national democracy arouses within nic emotions which would be well-nigh overwhelming if I did not recognize here assembled the representatives of the great party who must share with me the responsibility your mission invites. 1 find much reliel in the reflection that I have been selected merely to stand for the principle and purposes to which my party is pledged, and for the enforcement and supremacy of which all who have any right to claim democratic fellowship must constantly and persistently labor. Our party re sponsibility is indeed great. Turning our eyes to the plain people of the land, we see them burdened as con sumers with a tariff system that unjustly and relentlessly demands from them in the purchase of the necessaries and com forts of life, an amount scarcely met by the wages of hard and steady toil, while the exactions thus wrung from them build up and increase the fortunes ol those for whose benefit this injustice is perpetuated. Wc see the fanner listen ing to a delusive storv that fills his mind with visions of an advance, while his pocket is robbed by the stealthy hand of nigh protection. Our workinguicq are still told the talc, olt repeated in spite ol its demonstrate! falsity, that the existing protective tariff is a noon to them, and that under its beneficent operation wages must in crease, while as they listen scenes are en acted in the very abiding place ol high protection that mock the hopes of toil and attest the tender mercy working men receive from those made selfish and sordid by unjust governmental favorite ism. Wc oppose earnestly and stubbornly the theory upon which our opponents seek to justify aud uphold existing tariff laws. We need not base our attack upon questions of constitutional permis sion of legislative power. We denounce this theory upon the highest possible grounds when wc contend that in the present couditions its operation is un just, and that laws enacted in accord ance with it arc iueq.iitable and unfair. Uurs is not a destructive party. We arc- not at enmity with the rights of any of our .citizens. We are not recklessly heedless ot any American interests nor will wc abandon our regard for them, but invoking the love of fairness and justice, which be longs to true Americanism, and upon which our constitution rests, wc insist that no plan ot tariff legislation shall be tolerated, which has lor its object and purpose a forced contribution from the earnings and income of the mass of our citizens to swell direct the accumulations for n favored few; nor will we permit a pretended solicitude for American labor, or any other specious pretext of the be nevolent care tor others to blind tne eyes ol the cople to the selfish schemes ol those who seek, Hi rough the aid of an unequalled tariff' law, to gain unearned and unreasonable advan- ages at the expense ot t heir fellows. We have also assumed in our cove nant with those whose support we in vite, the duty ot opposing to the death, another avowed scheme of our adversa ries, which, under the guise of protecting suffrage, covers but docs not c nccal the design thereby to perpetuate the power ol a party afraid to trust its continuance to the untrammelled and intelligent votes of the American people. Wc are pledged tolrcsist legislation in tended to complete this scheme, because wc have not forgotten the saturnalia of the theft and the brutal control which followed another federal regulation of state suffrage, because we know that the managers of the party which did not scruple to rob the people of a p csidcnt would not hesitate to use the machinery created by such legislation to revive corrupt instrumentalities for partisan purposes; because an attempt to enforce such legislation would re-kindle animosities where peace and hopeful ness now prevail; because such an at tempt would replace prosperous activity with discouragement and dread throgli- out'a large section or our country, and would menace, everywhere in the land, rights reserved to the states and to the people, which underlie the safeguards of American liberty. I cannot, therelorc, forbear reminding you and all those attached to the demo cratic party or supporting the principles which wc profess, that dclcat in the pending campaign, followed by the con summation of the legislative schemes our opponents contemplate, and nccom pnmeu by such other incidents ot their success as might more firmly fix their power, would present a most discour aging outlook for future democratic supremacy and for the accomplishment of the objects wc have at heart. More over, every sincere democrat must believe that the interests of his country arc deeply involved in the victory of our party in the struggle that awaits us. Thus patriotic solicitude exilts the hope of partisanship, and should inten sify our dctcrmiuntiou to win success. Let us tell the people plainly and hon estly what wc believe and how we pro pose to serve the interests of the entire country, and then let us, after the man ner of true democracy, rely upon the thoughtfulncss and patriotism of our fellow countrymen. It only remains for me to say to you in advance of a formal response to your message, that I obey the command of my party, and confidently anticipate that an intelligent and earnest presenta tion of our cause will insure the popular endorsement ot the action ol the body you represent. the next speaker wus cx-Licutcnant- Govcrnor Steven M. White, of Califor nia, notifying Gcveral Stevenson' of his nomination. If General Stevenson had any doubts in his mind as to the enthusiasm of a New York audience they were completely effaced by the reception he got. He de- Uvcicd his speccti,.which was a ringing and splendid one, with effect. 1 he meeting is now adiourned, said Mr. Wilson. It had lasted just one hour and three minutes. It is no exaggeration to say that probably never has there been in the his tory of New York city such an inimtnsc crowd gathered under one roof. An idea ol the crowd can be had when it is known that the seating capacity of the Madison Square garden is in the neighborhood of 8,1)00 and that between 23,1)00 and :!(),. 000 ware there assembled.

A. Crandall refuses to make any statement concerning the romantic story that he was forced to leave Cleveland, O.. owing to a love affair between himself and Miss Alia Rockefeller, daughter of John D.

He finally arranged tor a marriage with Miss Rockefeller, but when the sub ject was broached to her father he be came indignant and told the clergyman he must resign or the Kocklellers would withdraw. Dr. Crandall resinned. He came here three weeks ago and took charge of the Memorial Baptist church, lie was seen by a correspondent today and said : 1 have absolutely nothing to say to the papers. This matter is not the busi ness of the public." "Do vmu not desire to have the storv denied if untrue ?" Asked the correspon dent. "There is no use in prolonging this in terview," said he. "I will not say any thingpositively nothing." Miss Rockefeller is the second daughter of Mr. Rockefeller, and it is said that the disparity in ages added to the ire of the girl's father when the news of the pio posal of marriage came to him.
