FIRST DAY UT KANSAS CITY
Democrats Assemble and Organize
National Convention.
AN OVATION TO D. B. HILL
The Platform Committee, After
All Night Session, Declares
For “i6 to i” By a Vote
of 27 to 25.
The national Democratic convention
was called to order at Kansas City at
noon Wednesday by Chairman Jones.
It was an inspiring scene that the
chairman looked out upon when, with
a rap with his gavel he stilled the tu
mult and declared the convention
open. About him were fully 25,000
people rising tier on tier like the
spectators in some vast coliseum,
while on either side stretched away
the rows accommodating representa
tives of the press from every section
of the country.
The Rev. Dr. S. M. Neel, pastor of
the Central Presbyterian church,
Kansas City, offered prayer.
The Democratic mayor of Kansas
City, James A. Reed, welcomed the
delegates to the city. A yell of ap
plause greeted his announcement that
the convention was gathered upon
Democratic soil and as the guests of
a Democratic constituency that bad
always been in the forefront in the po
litical lights of the country.
The delegates and spectators had
listened with rapt attention to the ad
dress, but heartily applauded the
closing sentences.
Senator Hill entered just at this mo
ment, and the applause turned to him.
“Hill, of New York;” “Hill, Hill!”
they shouted.
“Let’s hear Hill,” with a few hisses
interspersed was all that could be
heard, until the chairman finally rapp
ed the hall to order.
A few minutes later they renewed
the call, but the audience was impa
tient to get on with the proceedings
and showed their disapproval with
hisses.
When finally the chairman was able
to make his voice heard he introduced
Governor Thomas, of Colorado, the
temporary chairman.
A round of applause greeted Gov
ernor Thomas as he ascended the
platform und began his speech.
The delegates fretted during the de
liverance of the speeches and sought
more exciting themes, The second
dramatic episode of the day occurred
after Campau, of Michigan, had secur
ed the adoption of a resolution for the
reading of the declaration of inde
pendence. As the reading was about
to begin two attendants pushed up to
the platform bearing a pedestal and
bust, both draped in stars and stripes.
As the orator raised his voice for the
first words of the immortal instru
ment, the draperies were thrown back
diclosing a splendid head of Bryan.
The effect was electrical upon the vast
assemblage, which up to the moment
had neither heard name nor seen the
face of their leades.
At 2:31 p. m. the convention ad
journed until 4 p. m. At 4 o’clock,
however, the committee was not yet
ready to report and another adjourn
ment was taken until 8:30 p. in.
It remained for the night session
to bring the most remarkable demon
stration of the entire day. For the
first hour the proceedings were formal
and profitless, but when, at the close
of the speech of Permanent Chairman
Richardson, he paid a glowing tribute
to William J. Bryan, pandemonium
broke loose and the historic scene of
Bryan’s nomination at Chicago was
repeated, even exceeded, in a frenzied
demonstration lasting half an hour.
The state standards were wrenched
from their sockets aud borne aloft, a
battle ef supremacy was waged be
tween the standard bearers, urged on
by the deafening applause of the en
tire shouting, gasticulating multitude.
Outside of the formal proceedings
of the day, interest had centered in the
action of the platform room. As the
evening advanced it became known
that a determined struggle was in pro
gress, involving not only the question
of incorporating a specific 16 to 1
declaration in the party declarations,
but to some extent involving the de
sires of the prospective nominee as to
the terms of the platform.
While awaiting the committee’s re
port, ex-Governor Altgeld, of Illinois,
entertained the convention with a
speech. He unwittingly touched off
a mine by using the expression in dis
cussing the attitude of certain Demo
crats toward the silver question, “now,
my friend Hill.” That was as far as
he got for several minutes. The name
of Hill again started the uproar that
had marked the first session of the
convention. From all sides of the hall,
and particularly from the southern
delegates, came loud cries of “Hill,”
“Hill.”
Mingled with calls for the New
Yorker came hisses in plenty, and, de
spite the vigorous use of the gavel, all
semblance of order was lost aud noth
ing could be heard save the calls of
“Hill” and the disapproving hisses.
The band in the gallery struck up a
lively air, but as soon as it subsided
the uproar was as great as ever, the
California delegation being prominent
in calling for Hill. It was not possi
ble for Governor Altgeld to continue
immediately. As the committee on
rules declared itself ready to report,
Governor Altgeld discontinued his ad
dress and left the platform.
The report of the committee on
rules was read and adopted.
The report of the committee on per
manent organization brought on ap
plause. When it was announced that
Hon. J. D. Richardson, of Tennessee,
had been selected as permanent chair
man, cheers swept over the great audi
ence.
Chairman Thomas, after announc
ing the adoption of the report, with
out debate appointed a committee con
sisting of Former Governor McCreary,
of Kentucky; Daniel Campau, of
Michigan, and Mayor Phelan, of San
Francisco, to escort the permanent
chairman to the platform.
Mr. Richardson repeatedly bowed
his acknowledgments of the cheers
that swept in wave after wave through
the hall.
The first token of approval given to
his address was that which greeted his
first mention of 16 to 1. The applause
however, was rather feeble and scat
tering. Much more energetic was the
shout that followed the declaration
that the coming campaign was to be a
trial of the republic against the em
pire.
Twenty minutes after Chairman
Richardson had mentioned the name
of Bryan, which, like the wave of a
magician, had conjured up a scene
that has seldom been witnessed in a
convention, he began to rap for order;
but the delegates were not yet ready
to yield the floor, even to the chairman
of the convention. The band in the
gallery started a patriotic air, and
despite the continuous efforts of Chair
man Richardson to restore order, the
demonstration continued for half an
hour.
Order was finally sufficiently re
stored to enable the chairman to
recognize Delegate J. G. Johnson, of
Kansas, who made a motion that the
convention adjourn until 10:30 o’clock
a. m. Thursday.
At 10:34 the chairman declared the
convention adjourned.
COMMITTEE SETTLES SILVER ISSUE.
The platform committee, after being
in session all night, decided at 3:40
o’clock Thursday morning, for an ex
plicit declaration for silver coinage at
16 to 1. The vote stood 27 to 25.
OREGON SAFELY FLOATED.
The Trouble Now Is to Find a
Dock Large Enough to Re
ceive Gigantic Battleship.
The United States battleship Ore
gon, which ran on a rock off the Chi
nese coast on June 28th, has been
floated.
Secretary Long Tuesday morning
received the following cable message
from Lieutenant Key, naval attache at
the United States legation at Tokio,
Japan, in regard to docking the Ore
gon:
“Tokio, July 3. —Secretary of Navy,
Washington: Port Arthur too narrow.
If Oregon cannot dock at Nagasaki,
Japanese navy department tenders use
of Kure or Yokoksuka docks. Offer
any assistance desired. Has ordered
Akitisushima from Che Foo to the
Oregon. Have cabled Wilde offer of
docks. Key.”
The naval officials are disappointed
at the statement that the Oregon can
not be docked at Port Arthur, as that
place is only about sixty miles distant
from where she struck. Nagasaki is
600 miles, and can be reached only by
the Oregon venturing far outside of
smooth waters. If the docks there
are too small, then she must pash on
to the Yokoksuka docks. These are
located just below Yokohama* Tapan,
in the harbor.
MANY BODIES RECOVERED.
Death Lilt of the Great Fire at Hoboken,
J., Still Grow*.
A New York special says: Up to 11
o’clock Wednesday night 128 bodies
had been recovered from the waters of
the North river, victims of the disas
ter to the North German Lloyd Steam
ship line and docks. There are yet
over 125 people missing.
