of an extra session hns alatcd much floating
rlmor in ro.ynrd 10 the organization Of The
House. Friends of Sunset Cox feel encouraged

to end by return to Now York on MAY / after

and St Louis. Some doubt has been eN-
pressed in regard to John Kolly's position
here. probably from the fact that two New ork
members. Hewitt ana Wood certainly. and
probably Potter. will oppose Cox. In recent
letter Kelly says that he is for Cox against any
and all other candidates. and expresses himself
in hearty sympathy with the opposition to the
the completion of the count If the organi2A-
tion takes place this spring Cox's friends feel
that Kellys attitude. us the reprc-cn-
tatiye OF Tammany. will secure a num-
ber OF New York votes hitherto claim
