Both Houses Of the Legislature re-assembled here
this evening after recess. The proposition to form
o combination between Tammanyites and machine
republicans is talked about with good
deal Of carnestness among certain members
Tho probabilities OF success of such peculiar
combination are also canvassed. The outlook, how
ever seems to be rather indifferent in this respect

spect; while the enormous amount Of $10OOo,c0O
