May IT.-With tbt dfuilliKk. uubrukeii uud with little prosjavt of a winprouii*** ou u caudidate for guveruor, the lUiuuU HepuUllcan couventlon tma Uikeu a rvc-eaa after haviUiC taken live ballots. The recvftii tollowetl me twenty-ninth roll «all. the result of which allowed each •Candida tc with auHroxiuiately the aauie strength he had when he entered the convention. The twenty-ninth ballot gave the following results: Governor Hichard Tates. 4S1; Frank C. Lowdeu, 404; Charles 8. Dencen. afC; Howland J. Hamlin. Ho; Ves|»asiat> Warner. 37; Lawrege<‘ Y. Shermgll. od; John H. Pierce, ■£!. The proceedings were comparatively tame, and at only one tim^ during the aession was there any great demonstration. This occurred when a glee club was invited to the platform to alng “Ullnoia.” Chairman Joseph G. Cannon aakod the audience to join 'in the chorus, and he led the refrain from his place on the platform, beating time with a reversed gavel, tie looked like an old time singing master at a country •choolfaouse as be swayed his body In nnisou with the mush- and measured the time witty the Improvised baton. The great audience sang with a will, •nd when the echoes of the chorus died away a wave of enthusiasm swept over the armory hall. The attendance- showed no diminution in the interest attaching to the convention. There was a steady downpour of cold rain all day, and the ball was dose and disagreeable, but the armory was packed with people, who sat through the monotonous roll calls without the least sign of Impatience. The tension -was high, and the nervons anxiety with which the crowd watched for the long threatened break had a quieting effect on the gathering. Order was maintained -with ease. A number of conferences are in progress. One of them, brought about by the alleged federal Influence In the convention. Is attempting to select an onUidr*candldate. and the names of Walter Reeves, former Governor Joseph Flfer and ■everal others have been mentioned. Today, it U said, federal Influences attempted to secure an agreement on Congressman Vespaalan Warner, but they could not get enough votes, and the threat of Hamlin and Sherman to nominate Yah Warner became a formidable candidate deterred them. Yates support err tonight *ay that Senator Cullom la exerting his Influence with postmasters throughout Jlllnoia to .take away votes from Yatea. Yates and Deneen adherent* are la conference to strengthen their forces, said to be allied to prevail federal influences from stampeding the convention for Lawden. The failure of any of Benator Hopkins' delegates to break from Yates Indicates. It Is said, that Senator Hopkins has decided to stay with Yates in the struggle, although Lowden partisans insist that they will get Hopkins delegates as soon as Lowden has enough votes to settle the contest.
