The second delegation was led by gentleman,
who, as spokesman or three hundred young re-
formers, delivered Q carefully prepared address OF
considerable length, but as ne expressed himself
s1argely cOnflnedn to the subject OF honesty In
elections and fairness In political patronage.
The third delegation consists Of number Of bolt.
ers from the Apollo Hall organization. They stated
that In case the Tammany Society had not nomi-
mated an honest man for Mayor they would have
supported q republican candidate. They were
committed BY their anliation with Apollo Hall to
reform, but not to 0'Brien. They suggested the

sembled yesterday afternoon in the Wigwam, Mr.

sons OF the last session, when the outsiders who
took part In the proceedings, were almost as nu
merous as the regular delegates themselves, great
precautions were taken at the doorways by the at.
tendants to prevent anybody crossing the sacred
threshold without the proper credentials. The sys-
tenn adopted to secure the attendance OF delegates
only was rather severe one, nobody being allowed
TO pass until he presented his ticket with his name
written upon 1t In full; and even then every one
was compelled to stay ct the door until his name
was checked on on regular roll Of the delegates,
which was kept with scrupulous care by Mr..
Croker, Of the Eighteenth district. The task Of
