Democratic Standard Bearers.

ALBANY, My, May S0.-The Democratic
members of the Legislature met in joint ses-
sion this evening. Erastus Brooks, Assembly
man, who was absent delivering Decoration
Day address, sent letter stating that the first
duty is to insist upon adjournment without
choice of the Senator'S whose places have be-
come vacant by the voluntary acts of those
elected to represent the State. The present
Legislature is appealed to to fill these vacant
places, and the appeal is made by the two
gentlemen who, after abandoning their
places, now demand a new election to
fill the very places which they surrendered.
When the legislature of 1881 was elected no
such result was considered within the range
of human possibilities, and it is therefore a
full act of justice to the people of the State
that an opportunity be offered them to choose
members of the legislature, who, in the choice
of its Senator's in Congress, will represent the
voice of the whole people
Senator Fowler said the circumstances
which called this caucus together are unprece-
dented. The two gentlemen selected by the
legislature of this State to represent the
State in the United States Senate have
stepped down and out, and left this
State, with one-tenth of the people of
this nation, without any representation
in the Senate. No matter how important may
be matters arising in the United States Senate
this great State will have no voice, because
her Republican representatives basely deserted
their places. The wealth of this country is
opposed to our party as well as the great
monopolies. In this crises of the affairs of
our party, no Democratic members will be
found acting with our political enemies. Mr..
Fowler then nominated Senator Jno. C. Jacobs
for the short term created by the resignation
of Roscoe Conkling. The nomination was
made unanimous.
Francis P. Kernanwas then made the unan-
imous choice for the candidate for United
States Senator in place of Platt, resigned.
IN CONFERENCE.
The administration men met for conference
this evening. There were fifty present
and notes from thirteen more saying they will
vote for men who will support the admins
tration. Resolutions were adopted pledging
all present to withhold support from Conk.
ling and Platt.
In regular session of the Seuate to-day petit
tions were presented for and against the re.
election of Conkling and Platt.
Senator Mccarthy offered a resolution that
on Tuesday, the 31st of May the Senate pro-
ceed to nominate candidates for the office ol
United Senators to fill vacancies in the office.
Adopted.

Interesting Piece of History.

NEW YORK, May 3O.-The Times special
from Washington says: There is an interest
ing piece of history in relation to the contest
between Conkling and the administration,
which should be made known. On the day
following that in which the President sent
Robertson's name to the Senate, it was known
beyond doubt, Conkling and other represen
tavies of New York were greatly dissatisfied.
On that day two members of the cabinet called
on the President and suggested conference
should be held between the President on one
hand and the Vice President and the two New
York Senator's on the other. The
President accepted the suggestions, and set
apart that evening for the interview. The two
members of the cabinet met and made arrange
ments as they thought with the vice. President
and the two Senator's for conference, and it
was understood it should take place at 7:30 at
the White House. Afterward Conkllng de-
INJURED and refused to 60 although his COM
panions were willing to attend. On this ac-
count the interview did not take place. The
President waited an hour and a half for the
expected visitors. 1t is known that had that
conference been held an attempt would have
been made to readjust the whole matter salts
factorily TO all concerned.
NEW YORK, May 80. Times Albany special:
Senator Mills dispatch does not seem to
dampen the spirits of the Conkling men yet.
The Senator's decision, says the same dispatch,
has created a sensation. The -Conkling
men in the Senate hope to be strong enough
to prevent adjournment. The same dispatch
states new rumor of infidelity of Gov. Cor
nell to Conkling, which, however, it takes
pains to deny, that If the governor should be
nominated as candidate, it is 10 to he will
be the most popular man in the convention,
| in spite of the attempts of the Republicans to
detract and abuse him, and charge him with
unfaithfulness.
The Tribnme's Albany dispatch says oi
Mills action: If the administration mer
should gain one more Senator Conkling will
be completely in their power. They would
to then control the upper house, without whose
consent the assembly could not adjourn. Sen.
ator Jacobs, Democratic, states the same dis.
patch, said to-day, he is In favor of allowing
reasonable time to elect Senator's, after
which he will take the position that the legis
lature ought to adjourn and refer the question
to the people.

circumstances, the assembly caucus COM
mittee have seen fit to issue a call. (The call
appears elsewhere.) He closed by asking the
roll to be called.
The chair stated he had had count made,
and 1t was found there was not majority
of the Republican members of the>assembly
present.
E. A. Carpenter moved the caucus adjourn
to 8 P. NJ. tomorrow, and that the Republican
members Of the Senate be invited to partici-
pate. Carried and adjourned.
SUGGESTION.
The suggestion is made in some quarters
the November election, and then come together
again and vote for Senators. 1t is said then
members can vote more independently of the
influences which now govern them, for the
reason that they would know the disposition
of their constituencies toward them. If they
were renOminated and reelected then they
could understand that their respective posi-
tions now on the question were approved. If
they are not renOminated, or not reelected,
they can vote In accordance. This plan is
istration supporters claim that the proposition
is entirely insufficient. They say we do not
want to consider any plans just now. All they
want is vote in joint session, no caucus, no
plans, no machine contrivances whatever.
If Conkling and Platt can get the number re-
quisite, so votes, owing to the absence of Car
penter, they say thsy will accept their defeat.
They do not claim as yet there will be 80
votes against the resigning Senator's. The
fact is none certainly knows how the vote will
stand. The administration section
claim every member who has
requested his name to be taken
from the call for caucus as an opponent of
Conkling. The stalwarts put down some
ninety names of members on their call for
caucus and these names have been reduced
until the list contained only a majority, or
some fifty names, but those who withdrew
their names, or at least most of them, never
signed the paper ostracising Conkling and
Platt

NoRTHFIELD, Mimi, May 30.-Notwith-
standing the inclement weather yesterday, and
the mud under foot to-day, Decoration day
was observed by the largest concourse of peo-
pie ever witnessed in this city since 1859. Bus
iness of almost every description was suspend.
ed and general air of patriotism seemed to
rise from every private and public place. There
from all quarters. They seemed to flock to
our quiet little center to behold the sights
which were prepared for them. The following
procession was headed at the Archer house at
l o'clock

AS this grand procession marched up Divis-

played most solemn music, which almost
brought the vast throng to tears. At the
cemetery an appropriate speech was prepared
and read by Prof ". s. Pattee, followed by
music by the Glee club and by the Cornet
band.
The cx-soldiers then formed into line and
proceeded to decorate the unknown heroes
graves with flowers. The. assembly was then
sounded and the soldiers formed a hollow
square around the cross erected to the men,
ory only of the unknown dead, where music
was given by the Cornet band, remarks by
Rev. ]. Rounds, and music by the Glee club
The cross was then decorated, soldiers and
citizens uniting and depositing floral offer
ing, with the name and regiment of the one
remembered. Take it as whole, the cere-
monies were very grand and touching.

Beecher on ConEli,,g.

LOUISVILLE, KY, May 30.-The Nashville
correspondent of the Courier Journal had o
talk with Rev. Henry Ward Beecher, Of which
the following is a brief extract:
"You are having feroclous fight in New
York just now?"
''In politics, you mean?" asked Beecher.
"Yes, it is disgraceful dog fight"
"Will Conkling be returned, do you think?"
"Now, / can answer that better six months
from now" replied Beecher, with smile, II
am SPLENDID prophet backwards
"Ought Conkling to be sent back to Wash
ington?''
"No! he is totally in the wrong and ought
to go down. I have been great admirer of
his ability and have stood by him in his sup
port Of Gen. Grant, but In this matter he has
forfeited all claim to aid and comfort. It viii,
be very hard for him to! beat the Robertso !

To the green turf which lightly covers the
ashes of the heroic dead, there came, yesterday
willing homage, the offerings of many hands
and hearts.
Flowers, with their beauty, their mystery,
tenderness and perfume, are the appropriate
symbols of that unperishable record, ,embalmed
with memory of the soldier dead.
Beautiful indeed, are the memorial offerings
of Decoration Day, but still more fragrant
is the memory of those who fell in strife, and
in perishing wrote their epitaphs in deeds.
The enthusiasm with which Decoration day
was observed in St. Paul is the best evidence
that the sentiment of patriotism continues to
hold sway as the deepest and most healthful
passion of the human heart.
The day opened with lowering clouds and
intermittent showers. During the forenoon
Old Sol hid his radiant face and the prospects
for carrying out the programme looked most
forbiddlng. Towards noon, however, the
clouds began to disappear and the face OF ma
ture looked brighter.
At noon the sky partially cleared and the
sun shone with a most agreeable warmth and
ardor. Then it was that the old veteran took
heart, and groups of citizens began to congre-
gate around the Court House square.
At2 o'clock the streets adjacent to the lat
ter were filed with citizens. The weather
was clear and beautiful, but rather sultry Of
course the last feature didn't count. Within
the square an animated scene was presented.
By 2 o'clock nearly 100 veterans had assem-
bled, and the square was gay with flowers and
children. About this time Col. W. Fl. Fl.
Taylor, marshal of the day, appeared and the
veterans were commanded to fall into line.
Meantime the members of the Great Union
band put in an appearance gally caparisoned
in their bright uniforms, and presenting a
very pleasing appearance. Several patriotic
airs were beautifully rendered, and by this time
the streets were packed with spectators.
The veterans then formed into line, and
headed by Col Taylor and the band, took up
the line of march as follows: Down Waba-
shaw street to Third; down Third to jackson.
up Jackson to Tenth; out Tenth to Waba-
shaw, were carriages and 'busses were in
waiting.
Those present then occupied the omnibuses
and carriages, about dozen in all, and pro-
ceeded in the direction of the two cemeteries.
At Rice street divergence took place for
Calvary and Oakland cemeteries.

ALBANY, May 30.-After adjournment of

remained in their seats in accordance with an
invitation to meet in caucus sent them by the
assembly caucus committee. Speaker Sharpe
called Draper to the chair, who stated the OBJ
iect of the caucus. He said there was diver

We are met in the usual and old-fashioned
way to determine who should be the candi.

meet for that purpose was unworthy of the

asked me if would give notice from the
chair that the Democrats would meet in eau
Gus Immediately after adjournment. It was
the usual request made on such occasions. A
stranger standing by thought it strange the
Democrats could thus meet, while the Repub-
licans on the eve of contest could not do the
