the past week praying the Legislature not to reflect
Conkling and Platt. 1t was whispered about the
Capitol early to-day that Senator Woodin had Just

he intended presenting it to the Senate to deliver

drew to the Senate Chamber the most imposing as

crowded with people, and places on either
side of the Presidents chair. Senator Robertson,
who presided could not fail to recognize in the as
semblage the representative politicians of all the
counties IN the State.
1t was to such an audience, deeply interested in
political subjects. that Senator Woodin delivered
his speech He was, of course. heard with profound
attention. The intcrcst manifested was remarkable
during the delivery of his and other speeches.

Most of these invitations were addressed 10 Ad-
ministration men. Ii was remembered by them that
State Senator Strahan, in the course Of his speech
in the Senate in the morning had declared that
Mr.. Conkling if returned 10 the United
States Senate did not intend TO make war
upon the President on party questions. Reasoning
from this declaration il was inferred that Mr.. COnk-
ling desired to give the assurance to the Ad-
ministrati0n men who should call upon him. Few
Of these men responded TO the invitation
In the evening the desertion of the city by many

thrown open the windows and taken seats upon
piazza to enjoy the night air. There was every ap-
pcarance of their having given up any further at
tempts to gain any more votes for Mr.. COnkling.
Some Of the leaders also showed the same apathy.
Vice-Prcsdent Arthur spent the entire evening in
one of the patlors of the hotel socially talking with
some ladies.
But there was one little group Of Conkng men
who had not yet given up the struggle. Despite the
heat Of the night, they we're hard at work Most of
the work however, consisted in consultations in re-
gard TO the future policy of carrying on the combat
with the Administration men, These men were

Gus, and that the baloting will begin on Tuesday
without any formal show of Mr. Gonkllng strenEtn,
to call his supporters together on Monday eyeninSg tS
and, il he should be here, cheer them on INTO the
| hight with one of his characteristic speeches.
SYMPATHY IN HIS DOWNFALL.
If the Legislature should adjourn tomorrow over
Sunday, it would give Mr.. Conkling a chance to
get away gracefully. 1t is not known yet what his
plans are. There is some sympathy felt with him
by politicians of both parties looking at this contest
solely from the politicians point of view. They be-
ieve that he misinformed to the condition OF
affairs by his lieutenants who either did not
know the facts not did have the courage to tell
them, and that he would nevephave put himself III
such position if lie had known the truth. 1t is
stated on excellent authority rs showing how
greatly he was deceived az TO his strength, that
he came here assured that he could control
the Senate Caucus Committee through Scna-
tor Mccarthy; yet Senator Mccarthy IS
uncompromisngly against him, and made
the boldest speech in the Senate to-day, denouncing
his deserton of his seat and his lobbying to get it
back. One expression of sympathy with Mr.
Conkling came from Democratic politician who
sad-and seemed to say il sincerely-that he took
no pleasure in the humiliation of man who had
held Mr.. Conklng's rank in a great party and before
the country. 1t to him a really painful spec
tacle
A DEADLOCK EXPECTED.
The dav has been comparatively lifcless one.
Even the debate in the Senate was forgotten
as 1t had ended 1t contained nothing that the
newspapers and the talk of weeks past had not
made familiar. The day spent i'll state of ex-
pectancy both sides waiting To what the caucus
would bring forth; and when the caucus melted
into thin air there seemed to be no life
left in the contest. Indeed il is the general
feeling that the first contest il practically
over The lines are so well drawn that the dead
lock is seen to he inevitable, so long Mr.. Conk-
ling is in the field. No now looks for any
marked change in the situation or the relations Of
the two factions before the haloting begins The
shadow of deadlock seems already settling down
upon the Legislature. Both sides are quiet but
both are determined.
Itwoud not he unlike Mr.. Conkling to maintain
deadlock in the hope, first that hc might tire the
other side ont second, that he might show the
country that his supporters stood by him firmly:
1t does not seem likely that lie will
at any time command majority of the Rcpuh-
lican members; nj he viii have no trouble
probably in commanding at all times the votes Of
enough members To prevent choice; and this Is All
that he is accomplishing now. II he were out Of the
way, two Senators would in all probability be
promptly elected Tuesday next. and they would be
Republicans who would never throw the control OF
the United States Senate into the hands 0f the Dem
cratic party
