THE SIXTEENTH JOINT BALLOT.

MR. wIIFELER's VOTE LARGER THAN THAT OF EX.
SENATOR CoNKLING-CHANGE IN HE POLICY on
THE ADMINISTRATIONS MANAGERs-MR BROOKS
MAKES AND SUPPORTS A RESOLUTIONS THAT IS
RULED OUT oP ORDER.
lBY TELEGRAPH TO THE rRlBrNE.l
AIBANY June 16.-Mr. Conkling joined Mr.. Platt
to-day in the position of minority candidate for
senator. The Administration leaders have hitherto
paid little attention 10 the short term Seuatorship,
preferring TO direct their attack upon the Conkling
forces solely nj their weakest point the candidacy
of Mr. Platt for the long term. Ii was decided early
th,, morning TO change these tactics far show
that if the Administration men had not shown
greater concentration upon the ballot for the short
term il was not for the want Of the proper
snirit These ideas were chiefly prevalent
among the supporters of sherman 5. Rogers. Nearly
all resolved 10 vote for William A. Wheeler for tho
short term. Ii was hoped 10 put Mr. Wheeler ahead
of Conkhng and when the convention met this plan
was accomplished.
There were only four absentees to-day; this was
the largest attendance yet secured, except IN the
first days voting and the first Joint convention.
Senator Davenport, who is a brother-in-law OF Mr.
Rogers, being first on the roll OF the Rogers men,
was the first to change his vote. lie voted for Mr.
Wheeler instead of Mr.. Rogers. His example was fol-
lowed by Senators Forster, Looms, Pitts, Schroeder
and Sessions ana by Assembly yhl'h Nohguoh, feiher
Hickman. Holmes, Lasher and Waring. Some other
votes came to Mr.. Wheeler from other candidates.
Mr.. Beach changed from Lapham to Mr. Wheeler
and Mr.. butcher from Cornell TO Mr. Wheeler. Mr..
Wheeler was thus put from his record of % of yes
erday up to 3s. Mr. Conkling received only 32 votes
Some of Mr. Rogers's supporters while leaving him
did not vote for Wheeler. Senator Woodin voted for
Lapham, Assemblyman Hamilton for Crowley
Assemblyman Low for Lapham, Assemblyman sipp
for Cornell, Assemblyman rurck for Crowley, and
Assembly man Z. NJ. Tuttle for Folger. There waa
some comment over the vote Of Assembly,
man Hamilton as il was the first change
he had made sirfce the beginning of the balloting.
II showed leaning tow ard Conkling Of which he
has been suspected.
The Rogers men went into this movement with
the understanding that they should take up their
own candidate again after few days Il Is too
som to say whether they will find themselves able
IN regain all their votes not The total vote was
as follows:
