tou meeting was held Exposition Hall last night Ex
Gov Noyes presided The principal speakers were Sec
retary Brisow stanley Mathews, and ex-Gov. Noyes.
Mr. Brstow was received with the greatest enthusiasm,
the audience rising their feet and cheering several
minutes During his speech Mr. Brsow, alludng to the
civil service, said
The Convention has gwen a simple and easy method
OF reforming civil service, which Is neither more nor
less than the practical application OF the rule which
works well in private life that every man should mind
his own business and leave Others to do likewise. Mem
bers Of Congress- whom the Constitution charges with
legislative duties, should not dictate appointments To
offices as awards to political success. The platform
pledges the party speedy, thorough and unsparng
prosecution and punishment OF all public officers who
betray official trusts. The Convention did not stop TO
consider as would have do, whether such prose
ctons would he huru to the party Ii has given puo-
lie notice that pundcrers public revenue and corrupt
officials must meet they deserve, the rgOrs OF our

ecutiye Committee Of the Fifth Avenue Conference

ecutive Committee Of the Fifth Avenue Conference
Of which he is chairman, after the adjournment OF
the st. Louis Convention.
There is good reason to believe that the position
held by ex-senator SchuIz is similar to that occu-
pied by many other leading Germans Of this State.
They would willingly support Tilden should he be
nominated by the st. Louis Convention on reform
hard-money platform, and providing the candidate
for the Presidency is an equally acceptable
man; but the Germans, although bound to
parties by ties that are very weak will more natu-
rally tend toward the Republican party unless such
state of affairs as has been indicated were to exist
Their traditions generally Republican and their
sympathies are likely to bo with the Republic
can party, other things being equal. Mr. Schurz is
to deliver an address in English to the German soc-
etes of ST. Louis the Sd of july but it is not be-
eved that he will that occasion discuss the pres
ent political situation.
S. S. Cox since his arrival in ST. Louis, has re-
ceiyed telegram from Washington announcing that
the efforts which have been making for several days
to bring about a compromise between the House and
Senate on the appropriation bills have failed and
that it will be desirable for all Democratic members
Of Congress in attendance that Convention to re-
turn to Washington as soon as convenient.
