ofTonoon the corridors of the Fifth Avenue iiotei
and the rooms of the Republican STATE Coliii''
were well filled with deegates and others ih'eios'ou
in the result. Among tuOSc
friendly discussion were many representatives,

contest No ill-feeling was shown by those repre-
senting the minority i'll the CohVen''on'
and there was general eApiosSioii
of opinion that factOnal differences would no" DO

dropped as obsolete. 1t was recognized that 'he
work of uniting the two factions into one would not

nothing left ON which to keep the old divisions
Mr. Conkling the disturbing element heretofore,
had been relocated to q back seat, where the gen.
eral belief was he would remain for some time 10
come.
Some disappointment naturally shown by
,ba mon beretofore known as Stawarts because OF
their defeat but it was not of kind that indicated
any lack of interest in the canva 8. Not man was
to be found who did not express his determination
to do his best to elect the ticket nominated by the
Convention. The nominations were regarded as
of the ticket Leslie w. Russell the nominee for At
tornev- v-Gencral has always acted with that wing OF
the marty Judge Finch and Secretary of State
Carr have also acted with that side. Senator
Davenport the nominee for Controller, and Sllas
Sevmourf for State Engineer and Surveyor, have not
been particularly identified with either ia ton,
,vbila Mr.. Hustled the nominee for State Treasurer
has leen known as anti Conkling The friends of
President Arthur maintained that be was partlcu-
larly interested in carrying his own State TINS
wear and that he would do everything to that
end consistent with his Office The
same thing was said of Governor Cornell, who
is candidate for denomination next year. And
II goes without saying that all the anti-Conkling
men in the late contest will do their best for the
success of the party in the coming election. he
contest has been so warm and continued unit so
near the time of election that II is believed the ~,
terest awakened will bring out an unusually full
Republican vote for an " on year.
THE PROPOSED REORGANIZATION.
The most feeling shown in the talk yesterday
over the question of recognizing the party in this
city That there are grave abuses in the party
management of at least of the districts IN this
CITY was admitted by all the local machine
leaders The XVIII Assembly District pointed
out as remarkable instance of the need
of reform in the party management. But the ma
chine leaders did not want reorganization OF the
party here as a whole, unless they could do the
work themselves, They were, bitterly hostile to
the movement in the Convention for that purpose,
and they felt yesterday that they had scored the
great victory in the Convent on IN defeating H. al
though they admitted that had the reso utlon come
up earlier in the day when there was fuI, attend
saw the great need of this reform thought that much
had been accomplished, even though the resolution
ad not passed. The leaders III the city had been
warned of what they may expect unless they correct
The abuses before another State Convention, and it
possible that they may profit by this warning

stood by the Convention. The resolution merely
gave the Stat Committee power to act, without di-
recting it to do So No hrebrand would nave
been thrown into the canvass as no attempt Mt re-
organization would have been made until after the
election and then only after thorough investigation
of the need of it. The subject of reorganiza-
fion was not properly placed before the
Convention it was said, because the men who come
before the committees demanding 1t were not we'll
known Republicans or men of much influence in
the party. ,
last hour of the Convention to defeat the reorgan
ization scheme caused much disgust among some of
the Republicans from the interior, who declared
yesterday that they would not again come to Con-
yention in this city. Generally however, the arrange
ments made for the Convention, and the behavior
OF the city delegates and their friends gave great
satisfaction The proceedings were orderly and
parlamentary with slight exception for the last
hour AS the Convention which retired Mr.. COnk-
ling and his lieuenants from control of the party in
the State, it was i'll marked contrast with the
which gave him the direction in 1871. The Con-
yention of 1871 in Syracuse, disorderly pistols
being drawn by Mr.. COnkling's followers and other
like dem, nstrations being made. Not even harsh
words were spoken on Wednesday,
THE NEW STATE COMMITTEE.
Great interest shown yesterday in the COM
plexion of the new State Committee. While it was
not thought that any questions would come up
hereafter to divide the committee, yet many were
interested in knowing how it stood judged by the
division in the Convention The Committee will
meet for organization, next Tuesday, at
the rooms in the Fifth Avenue Hotel
when the question of chairInanship will come up,
and may cause an expression of opinion one wav or
fhe other Twenty members of the COMMITTEES were
