will embody the substance of the Liberal resolu-
tions adopted at Albany and will favor a UNIFORM
excise law through the State. The German dele
gates insist on this. The Committee on Platform Is
q strong one and will hardly fail to hatch out
string of plausible resolutions but they are little
puzzled how to treat the late Southern outrages
Mr. Fellows in his speech tonight, gave them
hint that the outrages the legitimate result OF
ten years of radical rule and very likely they may
conclude that that is the easiest way to dispose OF
them.

TRICKS REsoRTED TO BY CHURCHs FRIENDS TO

fBY TELEGRAPH THE TRIBUsEl
SYRACUSE, Sept. 16.-Although the nomination of
candidates has been deferred till tomorrow yet the
contest between Church and Tilden is practically
ended, and Tilden will be the nominee for Cover
nor The fight was waged vigorously on the part OF
Church's friends until nearly daylight this morning,
and various devices were resorted to to keep up
the opposition to Tiden though, as it now appears
without any design or hope of nominating Church
Among these tricks was the report industriously
circulated and generally credited, that Churchlhad
written a paper placing himself in the hands OF
his friends to use his name as candi-
date if they should deem it best. 1t nov
appears that no such paper was IN
existance. On the contrary, the Orleans County
delegation are in possession OF letter from ithe
Chief Justice purporting to be written last Satur-
day, and which will be read to the Convention, In
which Church says that he is not, and has not been
at any time, a candidase for Governor.
and that under no circumstances Will
he accent or would he at any time
have accepted the nomination. 1t would appear
from this that his over-zeaOus friends have been
using his name without authority, and as 1t has
turned out to his detrment there is no doubt that
his reputation has suffered from the disingenuous
and vacilating petition in which his friends nave
placed him. .r
Tilden's friends are now working to have his NOM
ination made without a ballot and by reclamation,
but from present appearances they are not KelY 10
succeed. His opponents insist upon putting them
selves on record against what they regard suicidal
act of the party in nominating Tilden and they are
now talking OF casting their votes for Senator Can
son OF Judge Allen on the first ballot as SORT OF
protest against what they admit will be the decls-
ion of the Convention. Those who are thus on the
record will then be enabled after the election and
the defeat of their ticket which they regard as GER
