yesterday, In response to a call promulgated by
the Hon. Richard Schell on Monday evening. II

victory in OHIO, and to appoint State Central
Committee for New York The members un-
derstood that the great hall OF the Institute was
to be open, and after Mr.. Theodore r. Tomlin-
son had tried the door In vain, he expressed an
apprehension that an adjournment to the sman
room above might cast a serious blight upon the
enthusiasm OF the meeting. He was among the
earliest OF the inf tlonists VINO arrived. and -
he went up stairs and entered the small hall he
