ALBANY, June %, 1851, p.m.-The events OF
The last twenty-four hours have shaken up
matters here considerably, and given new in
terest 10 the long drawn out Senatorial contest.
When ex-Fice President Wheeler was here he
spent most OF his time with the Depew half-
breeds, and professed to be OF the decided
opinion that Depew was entitled 10 an election
In preference TO any other half breed. He was
convinced that TO secure an election q compro-
mise with one half. breed and one stalwart as
candidates would have To be msde. He left
with instI uctions TO use his name In a way that
would help such compromise. Ia accordance
with that understanding the Depew mana
gers made an arrangement yesterday
morning with Wheeler's brother in-law 10
take Mr.. Wheeler out OF the contest for
the present, and have his friends unite with
The friends or Depew In pushing Congressman
Lspham ahead for the short term, making an
effort for stalwart and half breed alliance on
Lapham and Oepew. IL Was arranged that the
senator from Wheeler's district was TO make
tie formal announcement Of wheeler's WITH
dTawaL The half-stalwarts, who have day
after DAY been denounced by the Depew men
as being responsible for the deadlock In cast
ing their votes among the scattering candl.

equal with Depew is resulting In making thoss
TWO gentlemen rivals Instead OF allies.
IL ives the Depew men who told senator

had majority or the balance after his vote
was thrown out. They gave out the story TO
hurt Wheeler, and Mr.. Jacobs taking ft TO be
actually intended, had the democrats change.
From the best Information obUainable no such
plan was intended.
The statement that the governor has made
is that If member Of the legislature or Judge
or the Court OF Appeals was elected he could
not give them a certificate without violating
his oath to sustain the constitution or the
state
The democrats recovered from their fright
ana confusion, and In at once placing Clarkson
n. Potter In the field have strengthened their
position.
The breaking Up OF the arrangement 70 boom

they are charging that this change OF program

use Wheeler TO slaughter Depew, and that the
