COnklins's Unfortunate Mare.

WASHINGTOE, June 2j.-EX-Senator
Coukling arrived here this morning and
weut directly to his old rooms in Fii-
teenth street. After breakfast he drove
out to farm where his hoiss is being
pastured. In explanation of his visit to
Washington at this time the Star says ::
a few days ago the fine mare belong
ing to Senator Conkling, which he has
driven about Washington for a year or
two past, got caught in barbed'Hire
fence while she was out at pasture
and was vely badly scratched. In
trying to eXtricate herself, the mare
pulled part OF the fence down and twis-
ted sections Of the sharp wire round her
body. She received not loss than 20
ugly cuts, extending from her head to
her hind quarters, on her right side.
Some Of the wounds were nearly two
inches deep and will leave permanent
scars. 1t is not improbable that the
Senator's visit to Washington is to see
about the damage to this animal, which
is u favorte of his.

SECOND EDITION.
A Generai Expectation of q Settle.
ment M Albany.

ALBANY, June 26.-The evening train
the Senators and Assemblymen from
the country who went there yesterday
to pass the Sunday. 1t was the general
report that nothing had been done in
New York, the Senatorial contest being
remitted for settlement TO Albany. No
change was reported in the ex-senator s
views as to their remaining in the field
Friends OF of Governor Cornell, Rich
ard Crowley and other prominent Conk-
ling men expressed disappointment at
this, being in hope that the ex-Sena-
tors would withdraw this week and al
low them to put forward other candl-
dates.
Jacob NJ. Patterson was the only Re
publican politician of prominence who
came by the train. His arrival revives
the report that has been current here
that Governor Cornell is likely to be
more prominent candidate this week
than heretofore.
The members who remained here talk
ed considerably about compromises, and
with pencils and paper laboriously fig
ured out several possible agreements
None, however, seemed practicable as
long as Mr.. Conkling was able to hold
together, in defiance of the will Of the
party, his thirty.three supporters.
They are bar as yet to any election of
a Republican Senator. Despite this,
more confidence is FELT that the struggle
will end this week than has been shown
at the beginning OF any other week.
There are no reasons given for this
confidence, except that the members
have become SC impatient that they will
be more subject to those impetuous i'm
pulses which have so often, in political
conventions, ended obstinate troubles.
Ex-Speaker Hustled, who came here
from Peeks kill tonight, states that Mr..
Depew was there during the day, and
in conversation denied the rumor circu-
lated by Conkiing that he had with
drawn as a candidate.
