New Yoxx. May 16.-Speaking OF the
Fifth Avenue Hotel meeting. the Times
'ays: "Schurz Ia Q brilliant orator. a
Wsll-squipped debaier, and Of untiring
Energy; but as u political leader his ca
rssr has not been successful. He 10
now enlisted with goodly men in the
,rsditabls principles they advocate and
he general purposes they avow. and
hose In which the larger part Of the Re
publican party have entire sympathy.
Whether the conference will really I'D
vance these, or those who = seeking
thsm through the aid Of various Repub-
lican organizations, remains to be seen."
The Herald sditorially says: "The list
Of participants In the Fifth Avenue
Hotsl conference shows that they are,
without exception. ex-Repub-
licans and quasi-R Republicans, and con-
stat In equal proportions Of sorsheads
and ENTHUSIASTICALLY s~entimsntalista
being mere tenders Of the soreheads.
Disappointed sx-oficera and ex.candi-
dates for Office make so large q figure In
the gathering that the public will not
fail TO note their presence aud speculate
ON their motives. This bsvy Of political
hies has lighted on the wheels Of the Re-
publican coach. and when ii gets in mo-
ton they are prepared TO claim their
share Of the credit aud cry out to the
horses that pull the vehicle, what q
dust We mise!' That they can exert no
real influence ON nominations Ia obvious
to all. Il il too evident that, with hos.
tility to Southern domination rs its chief
issue, Bristow will have no chance for q
nomination, and the attsmpto OF the Fifth
Avenue Hotel conference to give him n
boost will be Loves labor lost.
The Tribune editorially says: 1--WE
do not sympathizs with the disposition
manifested In some quarters to carp ut
gentlemen engaged at the Fifth Avenue
Hotel Conference. Among them are
some OF the ablsst publicists, tho ripest
scholars and most efficient public SER
wants in the country. To-day will prob.
ably give US the real work Of the Con-
ference. and We have great confidence
IL will be good work and sure to
bear a good rssult both at Cincinnati
and Sc. Louis"
