First Day's Demonstration
Was for Cleveland While
the Second Day's Hurrahing
Was Given
Over to Bryan.
Tho democratic national convention
met in St. Louis Wednesday, listened
to an extonded speech from
Representative John Sharp Williams,
ita temporary chairman; appointed tho
committees necessary to perfoct a permanent
organization, and adjourned.
lu a session lasting two hours and
fifty minutes one striking incident
overshadowed all other proceedings.
That was the enthusiastic and prolonged
cheering which greeted the
name of Grover Cleveland. While the
outburst which greeted the name of
the former democratic president before
its last syllable had fallen from
the lips of the temporary chairman,
was noteworthy in itself, it was magnified
by contrast with the greetings
accorded the actual persons of mc^ji
who stood for all that has been opposed
to Mr. Cleveland within the party
during the Inst eight years.
Rxactly at noon Chairman J. K.
Jones, of the national democratic com
initiof, cauea iuu convt uuuii u> order.
His appearance on the platform
and the sound of the gavel brought
forth a checr from the floor and galleries.
After quiet was restored. Chairman
Jones declared the convention opened
after prayer Ity Ilev. John Cannon,
pastor of Grand Avenue Baptist
church, St. Ixmis.
During the invocation the convention
stood. Dr. Cannon's voice was
entirely Inaudible to the center of the
hall. The prayer occupied several
minutes.
Enthusiastic,cheering greeted the
> chairman's announcement that ho was
/ (Urocted by tit national committee 10
^^point. Jolfl %hnrp Williams temporaiv
chairman, and C. A. Walsh tem
porarjTsecretary and John I. Mariin
temp<rary sergeant at arms.
"[ lave the honor to introduce to
you Jphn Sharp Williams as temporary
chairman," said Chairman Jones,
and again the convention cheered.
Sevpral cries of "Louder! Louder!"
interrupted Mr. Williams a? lie begun,
his cpar, but not powerful voice at
first Ailing to reach parts of the hall.
An sir. Williams proceeded his voice
increwed in volume, and tho delegates
llstenjd attentively.
Th(| convention appeared considerably
almaed at Mr. Williams' humorously
sarcastic reference lo "mutual
admitition society" of Mr. Itoosevelt
and lir. Root, and when ho read an
oulogy by the president on Mr. Itoor,
the id'egate3 laughed and applauded.
Mti^Willlam* spoke in an ironical
tone hat caught the fancy of the convent!
n, and he was interrupted time
and ?aln l>y laughter.
Aliening attentively to the (lomocrati
doctrine laid down by Mr. William!
the conservatives found occasion
jr the first demonstration whfm
refomce was made to the record of
form- President Cleveland. All the
BhacTed party interest which had lain
dor!jilt through two national campaiifl
was released as by the touch
of a Mgger. The name of Cleveland
was :hoed from a thousand throats.
Hats handkerchief*:, fans and arms
werev.ived, delegates and spectators
atoodm their chairs and the last somblan
of order was turned into confusio
which convention officials were
pow< ess to subdue.
W lo the outburst was at its height
Mi.iryan's following attempted to

into order, so that he could proceed
with his address, a man in the vicinity
of tho New York delegation was seen
motioning delegates and spectators to
continued their applause and encouraging
tho galleries to Ignore tho chairman's
order for silence. The man resented
interference from the sergeant
at arms and in the end was ejected
from the convention hall. Tho disturbance
was of a rough and tumble
order, though no blows were struck.
SECOND CAY'S SES3ION.
At the Thursday morning session cf
the conveutiou Chairman John Sharp
Williams was given a round of applause
when he appeared on the platform.
The strain of his long speech
Wednesday was evident in his voice,
which >vas weak and hoarse.
As soon as he had produced quiet
in the hall by the U38 of his give),
ho introduced Archbishop John (5.
uihuuuii, 01 si. minis, wlio dellvere I
the Invocation. Immediately afterwards |
Chairman Williams called for the report
on rules and order of business.
The report was adopted without opposition
or discussion.
The report concerning Porto Rico
and tho Philippines according to the
delegates from Porto Rico seats and
votes in the convention was next
read.
Arguing for the adoption of the report,
Deh-gate Thomas Grady, of New
| York, said the nations^ (ommitteo
had decidcd to Include Porto Rico
i:i the call of the convention. Tha
commit ice had to consider t he question,
he sahl. as to whether these delegates
had the rifiht to vote. The su- J
preme court of the United States had i
decided that Porto Rico was a part i
of the territory of the United States. !
The same court had decided that tho J
Philippines was not. a part of the |
United Slates. The committee had fol- j
lowed the court and had given Porto
Rico votes and withheld votes from
the Philippines.
The committee on credentials not
being ready to report, a recess was
| tanuu Kill II S ? CIUCK,
During (ho recess the committee on
' permanent organizat ion announced that
Senator Bailey hn,l declined the position
of permanent chairman and that
Champ Clark hud been selected and
had accepted the honor.
In accepting the permanent chairmanship
of the convention Senator
Clark began a most ironical speech,
as follows:
"In his hate King 'David said that
all men are liars."
Had he been in Chicago when Senator
Henry Cabot Lodge was reading j
the Republican platform he would, no I
doubt, have pronounced the saino I
: opinion more leisurely, for surely, there :
never was more mendacity packed into j
the sumo space in any document purporting
to bo a grave stato paper.
William J. Bryan was given an ovation
when he entered the hull Just
prior to the opening of the afternoon
session of the convention. He was half
way tlov.n the aisle when he was first
recognized. There came a terrific yell j
from a group of delegates in the rear
of the hall, an.l instantly it was i
caught up by the crowd and the
cheers tolled up in a roar.
Mr. Bryan passed slowly down tl.j
aisle, picking his way through the del*
orates who were massed in the aisles.
He paid no attention at flivt to the
demonstration, but quietly sought his
seat.
Tho galleries Joined in the cheering I
; with terrific enthusiasm, hundreds of
the crowd standing up in their chairs !
and waving handkerchi< fs frantically. 1
The band struck up and the friends |
of Mr. J'.ryan, believing this to be an
effort to smother their shouts, at onco
yelled louder than before.
The men of the south came to the
front in this effort and tho Georgia
delegation, who carry a blue silk banner
inscribed "Georgia Parker delegation,'*
every time they march into tho
ball, at once waved it high and started

then came up swiftly. Arkansas, Ala- ,

After Pennsylvania came Mississippi,
Now Jersey, Tennessee. Indiana, Louisiana,
Texas, Connecticut and Virginia.
The demonstration had resolved
Itself more Into a Parker wave tlip.n a

to the finish, which was eighteen

At tho national democratic convention
in St. Louis tbo aub-committee
of the committee on resolutions
spent thfc entire day Thursday until
6 o'clock In perfecting tho details of
the democratic platform, concluding at
mui uour wiin me auoptlon of a gold

and Congressman Williams, and the
ballot stood 7 to 3, the affirmative
votes being cast by Messrs. iDanlel,
Hill, PattJson, Hamlin, Cable, Poo and
Davis, and tho negative votes by
Mossrs. Dubois, Sbivloy and Newlands.
Tho understanding was that if Messrs.
Bryan and Williams had boen present
they would have caso their votes In

Text of the Platform.
Following aro the germain features 1
of the platform as agreed upon:
Wo, tho delegates of tho democratic

doroVon to the essential principles of
the democratic faith which brings us
together in party communion.
Under them local self-government
and national unity and prosperity
would bo alike established.
Large reductions can readily bo
made in the annual expenditures of
the government without impairing the
efficiency of any branch of the public
service, and we shall Insist upon the
strictest economy and frugality compatible

executive departments of the government
already known to teem with corruption,
as well as other departments
suspected of harboring corruption and
the ^j'llshnn'nt of nncertaine.l corruptionists
without fear or favor or egard
to*persons. The peslstent and deliberate
refusal of both the senate and
house of representatives to permit
such investigation to be made by
either branch of congress, demonstrates
that only by a change in the
executive and In the house of repre

We favor the nomination and election
of a president trained in the ways
of the constitution, who shall set his
faco sternly against active usurpation
of legislative and judicial functions,
whether that usurpation be ruled under
the guiso of executive const ruction
of existing laws or whether it
tako refuge in the tyrant's pleas of
necessity or superior wisdom.

The dor.'ocratic party has been and
will continue to be the consistent opponent
of that class of fnrift* locicln.

favor, to draw a heavy tribute from
tho American people.
We favor the reduction of tariff taxation

competition may enter the American
market, whenever trusts and combin< s

the American consumer above a reasonable
and just profit; by such reduc-{

which $700,000,000 falls to tho share of

tho states and with foreign nations,
we favor the early completion of the

A Iiondon special says: Over sovon
lundred Danish and Norwegian emigrants,
bound for New York, aro bolieved
to havo been drowned in tho
N"ortli Atlantic on Juno 28. Out of
nearly $00 souls on board tho Danish
jteainer Norgo, which left Copenhagen
Juno 22, only twenty-seven aro
known to be alive, and for tho rest no
hope is held out.
When last seen the Norge was sinking

self from a deadly Atlantic reef 200
miles olY the west coast of Scotland.
Early on the morning of Tuosday,
Juno 2S the Norge, which was out of
her course in heavy weather, ran on
the RocKall reef, which is in the distance
and looks like a ship under full
sail. The Norge was quickly hacked
off, but the heavy seas, poured in
through a rent in her bow.
The emigrants, who were then
awaiting breakfast below, ran on deck.
The hatchways were scarcely built for
the hundreds of souls and became
clogged.
The ship began quickly to go down
by the head. Eight boats were lowered
and into these the women and
children were hurriedly put. Six of
heso boats smashed against the side
of the Norgo and their helpless Inmates
were caught up by the heavy
seas.
Two boat loads got safely away
frotn the side of the sinking ship and
many of the emigrants who were left
on board, seizing the life belt3, threw
themselves into the sea and were
drowned.
The Norge foundered suddenly and
some GOO terrified emigrants were
thrown into the water or drawn down
with the sinking ship. Thoao who
could swim tried to reach the boats,
but these were already too full and
their occupants beat off the drowning
wretches with oars.
The boats kept together for soma
hours. Practically all of their occupants
wore passengers and were not
usuci to nananng such craft. Tho boat
occupied by the survivors lauded at
Grimsby was a life boat.
One aocount says that thrbo boats
wero successfully launched, the other
two holding about ton persons each.
The lifr boat made faster progress
and fell in with (lie Salvia. What bocame
of tho other boats is not yet

Tho rescue of those on the life boat
took place at S o'clock on tho morning
