There was a riotous wrangle about ad-
mission tickets ut the start. John L. Bit

possession of the keys to the opera house
and undertook to limit the number of
tickets given to the state committee for

An angry mob of 8,000 men were but.

the opera house lb minutes before the con-
vention rust.
The mob at the entrance of the building
was rapidly increased and grew more dc.

their clubs. At the front wore the 108

signed to the Filley‘ delegates.
The confusion was worse. confounded
when Major Blttinger found the proprie-

the use of the building, was handed the

scanning Used In the Melee.
An assault was made by the Fillcyltes
on the back door, but they were repulsed
by the guard, who used a scantling.
Finally a compromise was affected and
Chairman Filloy led the state committee
through the front door. The mob that
choked up the street cheered llkcd madman
when they savv'hls hat. ..
No Keronsites were admitted with this
crowd. Filiey led the small procession to
the stage and looked out on case of empty
sonic except the few otoupied by favored
delegates.
The Filley delegation from St. Louis
was the first admittéd. The Karena dele-
gates held their places in the litre on the
outside and set up a mighty howl when
they saw the Filloy men pass the guards
at the door.
Mammal a hundred fights occurred in
the crowd outside the building. Some of
them partook of the nature of small sized
riots

Fractional flights in Delaware.
Dovttn. Dob. May lit—Tho Republican
state convention met here, and before the
. adjournment one of the stormiest battles
in the history of state Republican politics
had been waged.
Charges of fraud were exchanged and
fighting over contested seats indulged in
until it looked as if the convention would
end in chaos. The war was between the
factions respectively headed by J. Edward
Addicks and ex Senator Anthony Big:
gins. The Higgins rnen bolted the con-
vention and held a separate one in the
statehousc. W. Hastings presiding. These
national delegates were chosen: Anthony ‘
Higgins, John Piliing, Hiram Reedy, Dr.
Paris T. Carlisie, Cornelius P. Swain and
George H. Hall. They were instructed
for McKinley.
The regular convention selected .1. Ed-
ward Addioks, D. F Stewart. J. Frank
"Allen, Dr. Hiram 8. Burton and Dr. Ca-
lob It. Layton.
The fight between the factions was pro
cipitated by a motion for the chair to ap-
point the committee on credentials. The
Higgins people fought for the naming of
the committee by the district caucuses,
and a bitter wrangle followed. The mo-
tion fan the chair to appoint finally car-
ried by a vote of or to 52 . scoring first
blood for the Addicks men. his. Addicks,
who eat as a contestant from Brandywine,
dcclored~that he had been persecuted by .
the Higgins men, and that he would stand
their fronds no longer.
When recess time was reached nothing
further than a temporary organization
had been effected, with Dr. Calebli. Lay-
ton of Georgetown as temporary chair-
man.
After the recess the turmoil was contln.
nod, but a break came when the commit-
tce on credentials reports in favor of an
seating several Higgins clegates from
Wilmington. The Higgins men protected
in vain and then left the convention. The
Addicks men applied the unit rule to
nearly all questions and carried every-
thing before them.
The Addicks delegates are nninstructed
as to presidential preference. The resolu~
tions of both conventions declared in favor
of the gold standard and the Republican
policy of protection and reciprocity.
