IL The New York State Assembly has been
three weeks in session without being able to or
game. There are three parties in the House,
Democratic, Republican and American, but nei-
ther has the majority. The New York Times
says: IL is now understood that the Americans
have determined to fall back upon their own can
didates, and leave it with the majority to effect
an organization as best they can. This action
would seem to be in measure justified by the un-
