own substitute. a SUMMARY of the prOvi-
sIons OF both the bills was printed
in TnE TRIBUNE few days ago. In
the course Of his sucPch to-day, Mr. Reagan
was fr qucntly INTERRUPTED bv tie questious of
o.her members, and ne cnhcd sometimes IN not The
best spirit, and occasionally refused to answ
MASSACHUSETTS, and Others. MIR. Reagan IS IN ex
tremely ineffective speaker OWING to defective
voice and articulation; but the subject is one of
such importance and interest that he had an attcn-
tive audience to-day. Nearly all the meInb 'Ts
present gathered near the speakcrOn the Don0cGatc
SIDE of the Chamber and in the centre aisle, and
paid close attention to every word he uttered. II
IS probable that two or three DAYS will he allowed
for general debate on the hi l. aud that prOtracted

lBT TELEGRAPH To THE FRIBUHEl
ALBANY, n. Y, Jau. 5.--It WAS stated in those
dispal ches last DIgnt that the COnklng men IN
tended to hold conference in relation to the Sena-
torship IN New-YOrk during the Gf the Legls-
lature. The conference, 1t is now SAID, wl be held
at once. There left here for New-YOrk tonight on
the Same tram Speaker Sharpe, Richard Crowley,
Thomas c. Platt Police Justice Patterson. and sov-
eral influential members Of the Legislature from va
nous parts Of the State. Mr. Crowley had been In
formed by telegraph that his law Office aud valuable
law library had been destroyed during the day by
fire in LOckpOr but he persisted in his intention to
go to New-Yor&. The day the conference will be
held il not yet known, but the presence of Senator
COnkling, NcePresident-elect Arthar aud Congress
mau Lew p. Morton at the meeting Is confidently
expected Politicians here believe that the confer
ence will result in the return here on Tuesday next
OF the Conking men with only one candidate for
Senator.
The holding of the Senatorial caucus early in the
coming week is now favored by the COnk-
ling men. They believe that it would
lieve Speaker Sharpe from the embarrassing
position he would be- placed IN by being compelled
tor political reasons TO withhold from pnbh

Caucus Committee ~ controlled by the Lonkhug
lcaucrS; tnat 0f the senate 10y their opponents. Al
agreement IS necessary OF the two committees in
ordr to call the JOINT senatorial caucus. 1t Is known
that the Senate Committee wond dec inc at present
to aarc9 to the proposition to hold the caucus on
W,dncelay night next. Upon the rcassrmbIng of
'thr Lrg.slIturc On Tuesday, however the members
oi thr committee wall probably bo subjected to a
considerable pressure by the COnkling men to induce
them To consent 10 at Hu early day. Chaun-
