NEW YonK, March 2g.-The st. James
swnrilcd to-dny wltllntlherentsof tho simon
puro rrglilar ridden Democracy Of this
State and city, the occasiun being tic
regular StAtc Committee meeting to nalno
tho date n1ld placu for tho State Convention.
Among those prcsont there were three Gle
inclts, minority nganst TI1tten In my
cuel1t, 4 aGlect coterfe for ridden and nobody
elsc md n majority for Tidcn. but willing
to tako tho 11lan nominated, whoever lie may
be.
a Gull WIS presented directing attention to
the dangers threatening tho Republic
through the likelihood Of Grant's
nomination, arll proposing II ptnn
Of Democratic harmony. THIS cAll
WIS rejectcd byn vote Of 20 to I. The Tildcn
lnen then gained 4 victory by carrying ,no-
tlon to leave the fixing OF the date n,d plnco
to committee Of five, tic Convention, how
over, to be called between April 20 and Nfay
/. Mr.. Grann1s, Of Utica, spoke for that
place. Some were
Afraid OF UTICA,
he saEtl, for fcar Seymour might control the
Convention I'll his own interest. As to That
he could sny TINT Gov. Seymour would not
be q candidate In ally sense under my cir
culnstances. Notwithstanding nll the re-
port Ind snid, tic object I'll leaving
time and p1ace to a committee WIS to ennble
Tilden's men to get ahead OF Kelly, md
secure the best hnll md MI the hotel quarters
in whatever place is chosen. Syracuse Is
favored BY the Committee.
THE REILLY TAststASY MEETING
Mt st. Nicholas Hotel was hardly successful.
There were few Of tho country members
present, a,ld they were opposed to the plan
OF announcing Convention for tho sa1no
dato md place ns tho regulnr one. They
wan ted TO wait Til they saw whnt tho Titden-
lies did. It was ke]Ey's idca, lnwcver, to
fill tho places Of tho nbsontees, and 70
ahead, so TINT lie might have everything Ills
own why. The usual crowd Of hts followers
wns OIL hand ready for fight will. anybody.
1t Is claimed that Reilly has made such bur-
snins III this city Us will
rREvEST DEMOCRATIC HARMONY,
no matter who Is nominated.
Among the Tfltlcn Democrats, before tho
Committee meeting. tho conversation turned
tnainly upon the split III the party. 1t was
conceded on NIL sides that there wcro
llo present lioprs Of harmony, but
1t was said the lenders had devised
scheme that would wipe Kelly nnd
Tnmuia1ly out Of tho party altogether.
Tllls scheme contcmplates sending to CIncln-
llatt delegation Instructed to vote ns Unit,
but not tleilnitly pledged, III tint event the
antl-Tllden party will sond n delegation OF
their own, md measures are to bc tnken
whereby 1t will be denied admission. Then
the nomination Will bo made, this story snys,
a1ll It Will IN OF be Tl!den. This will force Kelly
tSenpport q candidate III whose nomination
lle Ind no shnrc, and practically leave Taul-
lilany out III tho cold.
