The enterpri,ing Republicans Of the city at

stated that the chairman Of the National Com
mittee, in reply to letter, highly approved Of
the plan Of erecting building for the Conyen-
tion, AID said thatthe sons Of New York would
be here in thousands. Mr.. Eggleston, Of Ohio
said his State would send large representa-
ton.
How to give these crowds of live Republi'
cans a hospitable reception was the question
before the caucus. Their entertainment at the
hotels had already been provided for by obtain
ing assurances from the landlords that thei
prices would remain unchanged; aud the mex
effort was to obtain a building suitable to th'
occasion,
There are several very large halls in the cit,
which we're oeered free of charge. Although
