Tha democratic congressional conven
tion of the Eleventh district, at Mon
mouth yesterday was, the largest and
most enthusiastic gathering of its kind
ever held in the district. The basis of
representation had heretofore oeen one
delegate for ever 400 votes, hut the cill
this j ear reduced the basis just one-hulf,
thus making double the number of dele
gates 87 in all. Henderson county
lacking only three votes necessary to se
cure another delegate, was a'lowed one
moie by unanimous vote, which unhap
pily f roved to b a the medium of creat
ing a dead -lock which required seven
ballots to break.
From tbe night previous and during the
morniug up to the calling of the conven
tion the friends of the rival candidates
were assiduously urging and presenting
the e ements of strength of their respec
tive favorites. The Ruck Island contin
gent was not only numerically fctronger
than any other, but they rightly earned
tbe title of hustlers" for the earnest and
effectual manner in which they eluci
dated the situation from a conservative
and incontrovertible standpoint. And
when the scene of operations was trans
ferred to the floor of tbe opera house
when was enacted probably the most ex
citing political contest ever witnessed
in tlie district, their admirable tact
and management was a conspicuous
featue of the proceedings. Not
for one single moment did they
flinch or lose confidence in the uK
timatj success of their cause. But when
the chairman of the Schuyler delegation
the last county on tha roll call arose
and in slowly measured teres said "that
one of our brethren has turned from his
first lve, and Schuyler casts 6 votes for
Necct- and 4 for Cable," the long sup
pressed emotion of the lalter's friends
found vent in a lusty cheer that threat
tied to raise the root, flats went ceil
incest arris, handkerchiefs were flaunted
and t ie scene was One of wild enthusi
asm.
When the delegates arrived at the ha'.l
they were agreeai.ly surprised to find that
the ladies of the Frances Cleveland club,
of Mc nmouth, had not been unmindful of
tbe occasion, and had graced tbe stage
with i everal handsome bouquets, whose
beauty and fragrance diffused a cheery
welcome. A temporary organization was
perfec ted by tbe election of Mr. Frank
Q'lintiy, of Monmouth, as chairman, and
C. C. Chain, of McDonough, and James
Anderson, of Hancock, as secretariep.
Upon assuming the chair Mr. Quinby
said:
I believe it would be impossible for
me to express the high sense of honor
that I must necessarily feel has been con
ferret! on me by the congressional com
mittal) in inviting me to occupy this
cbair It hes come too unexpected, and
hence I am in doubt whether I fully ap
preciute tbe bonor, but 1 think 1 do ap
preciMe the responsibility that it also
concurs. I only feel capable of even
trying to occupy this position with credit
to thH convention when I find that deep
down in my heart is a feeling of certain
ty that I shall have the sympathy and
help of every delegate here. We are
here to not only name the demo
cratic candidate but the next con
gress nan from tbe Eleventh congres-
siona district. Whoever be may be.
ho will certainly be one who will
be opposed to the trickery, class legisla
tion, and all other means, whereby the
people are deprived of their rights both of
property and of person. The voters of
the Eleventh congressional district have
bad during the last four years enough of
public promises broken by tbe man who
made them, broken not so much perhaps
nten' tonally, but because of an utter
want of capacity to keep them. We have
bad enough of nonentities. We want a
leader, a representative. During all our
energy for our favorite candidates let us
not forget we baye a common cause
against the most oppressive and corrupt
of all political partirs. Once again
thanl.iog tbe congressional committee
for tbe honor conferred on me, I wait
your further orders. '
A motion then prevailed that the roll
of counties be called, and that tbe chair
man of each delegation announce one
amocg his number to serve on the com
mittee of credentials on permanent or
gani7ation, resolutions and a member of
the congressional committee. The com
mute es were constituted as follows, and
tbe c invention adjourned for dinner:
Credentials J. R. JnhnBton, B. Whit

Tte convention got down to business
again at 1:30, when the reports of the
different committees were received and
adop ted . A motion was made and carr le d
unanimously that Henderson county be
allored an extra delegate, as it lacked on
ly three votes of entitling it to five. Per.
mam ;nt organization was effected by the
election of Dr. J. G. Phillips, of Hancock,
as cl airman and C. C. Chain, of McDon
tragi, and T. J. Medill, Jr., of Rock Isl
and, as secretaries. Hon. . W. Hurat,
of Rick Island, and Mr. Q. C. Ward, of
McE onougb, were appointed a commit
tee to escort tbe new chairman to tbe
stag ). Dr. Phillips made a short ad
tires i, and predicted a glorious victory
for c emocracy not only in tbe district,
but i n the state this fall.
The following resolutions were read by
Mr. L. C. Blanding, and unanimously
adopted amid much enthusiasm:
We, the democracy of the Eleventh.
congressional district of the state of Illi
nois in convention assembled, hereby ex
press our hearty appreciation of that
grand old democrat, Jobn M. Palmer.and
trust that be may .be the next senator
from this state, a sturdy and honest rep
resentative of the principles which are so
dear to tbe hearts and minds of all trne
democrat: be it
Rttoltxd, further, That we express our
appreciation of the bonor conferred up
on this district by tbe state central com
mittee in the election of the Hon. Delos
Phelps as chairman of that committee;
be it
Retulved, further. That e express our
disapproval ot the course of the republi
can party in the further continuance of
our present high tariff of that war tariff
which U so burdensome and unnecessary
for the welfare of the people of our
country, and that tariff which protects
the few to tbe detriment of the many;
and further we express our most hearty
disapproval of the McKinley bill now
pending before congress.
THK NOMINATIONS.
Upon motion tho roll of counties waB
called for nominations, and Mr. a. L.
Bwiaher responded for Rock Island. lie
made an exhaustive and earnest plea for
the nomination of Mr. B. T. Cable. He
was an able and a polished gentleman, a
man ot affirs. and a gentteman wbo
would represent tbe district creditabiy in
congress. He was charged by some
with being a rich man and a monopolist.
The former statement, the speaker ad
milted, was true, but the latter, he said,
could not be substantiated by facts. Mr.
Swisher referring to the questionable
manner in which Mr. Cable's father had
been defeated for congress twenty years
ago, said "that if Ben T. Cable is nomin
inated here today all the powers under
heaven will be unable to count him out
next November. (Applause ) Mr.
Swisher then dwelt upon the situation as
be had found it. and thought the only
wise thing to do was to nominate Mr.Ca
ble, and that if be should be chosen to
lead the democratic hosts this fall tbe
convention would never regret its ac
tion. If be is nominated be will be
elected.
Mr. Guy C. Scott, of Aledo, when
Mercer county was called, stepped to tbe
front, and in a well delivered speech,
ably seconded Mr. Cable's tiomination.
He said he asked for Mr. Cable's nomina
tion in tbe name of the young democracy
of the district, and if the convention
would do its duty and select him as their
standard-bearer, when the votes were
counted in November it would be found
that Cable and Gcst would go to the
south line of Mercer county "neck and
neck." The speaker said that this was
tbe fifth time that the county of McDon
ougb had asked for the congressional
nominee, and it was about time the
claims of the north end of the district
were recognized. ne eulogized Mr.
Cable in fitting form, and said he was not
only the choice of tbe delegation, but of
tbe whole democratic party of Mercer
county. His speech was extemporaneous,
but none the less brilliant and convinc
ing. and be was applauded to the echo, i
Henderson, Warren and Hancock were j
successively called and passed. McDon
ough presented the Hon. W. n. Neece
through Mr. J. Ross Mickey, who made
an earnest and eloquent appeal for the
congressman. Ilia speech was punctured
with applause, and was decidedly credit
able to bim as sn oratorical effort.
Mr. Webster Leonard, of Schuyler, then
presented the name of Judge 8. B. Mont
gomery, and it was thought tho speeches
were over. But there was a surprise in
store. Tbe Hon. E. W. Hurst arose
among tbe Rr2k Island delegation and
stood before the convention. He spoke
earnestly and impassionately in behalf of
Mr. Cable, and clearly pointed out to the
convention that it was its "duty to nomi
nate him.
BALLOTING COMMENCED.
Mr. J. R, Johnston, of Rock Island.
moved that an informal ballot be taken
for a candidate for congress, which was
carried. Tbe ballot resulted:
Cable Rock Inland, IS; Mercer, 9;
Henderson, 4; Warren, 4. Total. H5
Neece Henderson, 1; Warren, 6: Mc
Donough. 16. Total, 23.
Scotield Hancock, 80.
Montgomery Schuyler, 10.
With the beginning of the regular bal
lots Scofield'a name was dropped while
Schuyler stuck to Montgomery until the
4th, when tbe contest narrowed down to
Cable and Neece, both receiving 44 votes
for six consecutive ballots. The greatest
excitement prevailed and tbe delegates
were importuned and labored with to
change their votes. There was no break,
however, until the tenth ballot when a
Neece delegate from Schuyler was pre
vailed to vote for Cable. Tbe cheering
that followed was deafening, and when
order was restored tbe Hon. w. H.
Neece appeared on tbe rostrum. Ha coin
dially thanked his friends for the lively
interest they had taken to secure his nom
ination, and urged them all to take their
coats off for the nominee, ne, himself
would take pleasure in doing so, and was
confident that Mr. Cable would receive
the solid support of the democracy in the
lower end of the district.
Tbe convention then adjourned hur
riedly, and the north bound delegates
had barely time to catch their train.

A SAD ENDING.
The Drowning of the Little Moa fr
Mloan. of Mettae. Clone a Day of
Pleaaare at the Tower.
The drowning of the little son of Dr.
and Mrs. W. K. Sloan ia Rock river at
4 o'clock yesterday afternoon was one of
the saddest occtrrenses of the season.
Tho boy. Paul, aged erven, with his sis
ter Clara and brother Chester, was spend
ing the dty at Black Hawk's tower, in
card of Mrs. Sloan, who with rela ives
and friends, composed a party for the day.
The pleasure seekers were all at the foot
of the tower not far from tbe river and
the children were searching for stones and
plants, and Paul and a cousin a few years
h8 senior, waade red along the water's
edge by themselves. Coming to a high
ledae which protruded ever the water
with a narrow footing beneath where one
might pass by stooping low and using
care, Paul attempted to cross on it, but
lost his balance and fell into the water,
at a place ten feet deep. His cousin
was the only witness to the drown
ing, and immediately attracted help
by his screams. Messrs. H. F. Lamp
and James Moore we:e quickly on hand
and made every posaiole effort to recover
tbe body before life was extinct, but
failed, and half an hour elapsed before
by means cf a grappling hook the body
was brought to the surface. Dr. Sloan
had in the meantime been summoned and
aooa arrived, as did Dr. Jennie McCowen,
of Davenport, and Dr. Kinyon, of this
city, and as sion as the body was taken
ashore by Messrs. Lamp and Moore,
who bad recovered it after diligently
dragging the river, the physicians and
others worked bard and long to resusci
tate the boy, bat it was too late and at
8 o'clock last night all efforts were aban
doned in despair.anJ the party whose joy
of the morning when the start was made
to the tower, was turned into sorrow in
tbe eyening started home with the
body. Coroner Hawes had .been sum

necessary.
