TUO POINTS SErTLED.
That Anu.Tnmmnny viii he Huicd Out and
anew Ticket Nominated.


ALBANY, Oct. 3-To-day's proceedings in
the Convention are considered to have made
two points clear: first. that the anti -Tammany
mon from New York city Will be- allowed no po-
sition whatever in the Convention; and second.
that those who favor "a new State ticket will
carry their point. The Tammgny men are out
spoken in declaring that pnrty policy di-cl-
plinc. and organization forbid further parey-
INK with faction. and that there must now be
u square issue between the supporters Of tho
regular and OF the irregular organization. The
known sentiments of large majority 81 tho
Committee on Contested Seats renders it cor
tain that they will report unqualiilcdly in favor
of seating the Tammany and excluding tho
anti-Tammany delegates. Allen c. Beach still
seems the fayoritr nominee for Secretary "
State; To- Mr. Olrou'- denomination for Comp

The fact that Gilman had altered cctiiil 'atcs Of

=, This, being done the Convention, on motion Of
Col. Faulkner, adjourned until tomorrow
morning. The reason Of this adjournment un-
I'll tomorrow was due 10 the fact that the Con-
vcnton was sitting in an Opera House and the
troupe were To- use IT in the evening.
Tho Committee on Contested Seats Is now in
session at the Dclavan House. II will be- re-
mcmbcrcd that none Of the districts in which
seats are contested were permitted to have
m"mbcrs in the committee This reduces the
number Of the committee down To tw"n.v-on".
or the twcnty-onc it IL understood fifteen are
in favor OF "A new ticket. and six OF the old
ticket. Arguments are now being heard before
the committee pro and con on the contested
seats they are having II long session. What
the result IL nobody can yet tell. but
! venture to predict that in the
three main cascs-numcly. Albany. Kings,
and New Nork-it will turn out nhout ~ follows :
In the First District of Albany the Parker and
Corning delegates will be- admitted. In Kings
fancy Boss Mclaughlin will save his whole

The story of the Last Battle and the SUR
render,

LONDON, Dec. IA special dispatch from
Bucharest says regarding the capture Of lPlev-
na, that the critical condition of Osman Pasha' s
army was certainly known in Constautinople.
Hence the recent effort of Sueman Pasha to
create q diversion to enable him to break out of
Plevna. and the attempt of Mehemet Ali to as
sist him.
The latter. however, failed to cooperate as
instructed. and he will be relieved of his com
mand in a few days.
Osman Pasha, finding all resources cut off
his escape impossible, his army starving and
perishng with cold, and no hope of succor.
communicated by letter with the Grand Duke
Nicholas, commanding the investing forces,
but the latter declined to accept this letter or to
receive the envoy. who was escorted to the
headquarters of Prince Charles, commander
in chief Of the allied armies besieging Plevna.
The letter contained request for favorable
terms of capitulation and that Osnan Pasha
be allowed to surrender his sword to he Grand
Duke Nicholas. This being impossible the en-
voy returned to Plevna.
On Sunday another desperate assault was
made on the Russian right in which Osman
Pasha himself was badly wounded and about
5000 Turks placed bors dc combat. Nothing
now remained but unconditional surrender,
modern times.
At 2 o'clock on Sunday the Turkish buges
sounded the retreat. firing ceased on both sides,
and Russian victory was acknowledged. Aid
for the wounded was given indiscrminately to
Turk and Russian, while the negotiations were
in progress and by O'Clock the surrender was
complete To day tho Russians are engaged
