WASHINGTON Sept 81 1877.
Tho action OF the Rochester Convention was watched
for here with the closest interest," was not until
this evening until the New York papers had
with full report Of tho proceedings the extent of
the breach between tho Conkling and Hayes repuJ,-
fully appreciated. Washington Is III favored
In the matter OF Journals and stands whero did a
years ago in It's dependence upon New York for
the news OF the day. Last night, for instance,
there only short account in tho evening pape
OF the opening OF tho Convention and everybody went
10 bed ignorant OF the battle royal between Senator
Conkling and George William Curtis. Even tho morn
ing papers to-day had only mcagrc account made up
of bad synopsis OF Mr.. Plat's speech and something
like debating socetys minutes Of the OF the pro-
ceedings. 1t was not, as said before, until the New
York papers brought their full reports the gravity
OF tho quarrel was ITS length and breadth.
FEELING AMONG NEW YORK EMPLOYEES
Alter all there Is little discussion OF tho matter
There few public hors outside OF the Cabinet
officials Tho taken in the action OF the Con-
vention has been largely felt among the government
employees haiiing from New York, but whatever may
be tho opinions OF these people they careful to
Keep them 10 themselves Indeed, 1t is a main full
quarrel for them. On one sidc they find their party
chief and leader, the renowned Senator from New
York, and on tho other tho President, 10 whom, IN
all sincerity and fairness, they owe respect
and allegiance. With all this reiccnce thcrc
impression that Senator Conkling might
not have committed himself positively in his nos
tility to tho administration had he been stung to
reply to that portion of the speech of Mr. Curtis
which twittcd him with soreness, discomfort aud os-
appointed ambition, ana with being intoxicated by
the lattery OF parasites This much for flesh
