Special Dispatch TO 7Te Chicago Tribune
ALBANY, y. Y. July 9.-The wriggles of
the machine are very irdlcrous. Driven to
the wall, with inevitable defeat staring them
III the face, tile tunkling managers are lnak-
In, desperate efforts IL put oil tile evil ttay,
i'll hopes that Il continuance OF their policy VI
obstruction ior :, few days lunger may ela-
Bile item 10 surrender on more agreeable
terms. The superior .eneralship and tactics
Of The Administration men have put the coll
1es; i'll such shape that The Bucks have no
chance of rescu.ng even 4 single chestnut
from the fire. While Iai,ham is generally
classe,l rs 4 "Stalwart," he is hot Il
candidate after Conkling's own heart. lie
ll;!S not i.lorseh the designations Of the two
Senators, and, it elected to the Senate, will
b.. iilor.: likely to support than antagonize
tie Administration.
CROWLEY or CORNELL.
w1s tie Buck candidate after Conkling. 1t
is quite probable ulat either could have Sc
cured the Stawart position if his friends had
gone into the caucus. Now it is too late.
While the MASSES Of the party will hardly
recognize the nomination Of Lapham and
Miller lis the best and most satisfactory
outcome OF the long strife, there is
M objection to the gentlemen. except that
they do nut come from the highest intellect
1al rank in the party. The Bucks, however,
have succeeded in discovering that the ac-
tiun Of the c:tncuS involves 4 new peril to the
pauy. The Two candidates are members Of
the next House of Representatives. The Re-
publican majority there is very ineagre, so
tl:at the promotion of Lapllam ami Miller
may throw the organization Of the House
into the hands Of the Democrats. Tile sl,ai-
iowncss alld insincerity of the plea is nearly
srlf-eyidcnt The two districts are largely
Republican, and the choice Of two Republic
ans would be certain. Further, the majority
Of the Coni,liil:. men, since Platt's igllumin-
GUS retreat, have been voting for Crowley,
ANOTHER: coSGEESSM.AN,
while the designations i'll the first place
Threw the Senate into the power of the DEM
ocrats and, in the event Ut Garlield's death,
may give the cuuntry 4 Democratic Vice
President for nearly four years to come. All
other arguments being rendered polntless by
tie act.oll Of The Administration side, The
Bucks llave been ringing tile changes OH this
''new peril - all tlay. Early this nor1l-
Ing the faithful were gathered into
State-Treasurcr Wendell's private office,
i'll the State House, and heard
their Instructions. Tie meeting lasted
all hour :uld a half, during which Il strong

and they could adopt them Or bolt. This re-
buff was not sufficient On the long term
11alIot tile bait was openly thrown to the
Wheeler Men- who feel particularly sore
over tile way in which their tayorit was
slaughtered by Dcpcw's bacSers. The des-
pcr:ttion and despair Of the Bucks was Clearly

and Assembly1nan Derrick were the only

TIL: ONLY BUCK TO BREAK AWAY.
In the joint convention the Conkling men,
by a concerted plan, wasted time by ex-
planning their votes. SO that only one ballot
was taken. They all said they must stand by
Conkling, rs no - snap meetings" could be
recognized, especially whei, the electl0h of
the nominees would jeopardize the ascend
<.ilcy Of the party III Congress. The frantic !
e.ltleav0rs Of the Bucks to arrange matters to |
suit themselves better will prove Of no |
avail. Neither the Deptw llor Wheeler |
proposals. il doubtful it Conkling can
hold all lis forces another day. Assembly |
men SissUn and CalInan and Senators Baker
and 'yinslow are ready to yichl now, and
Miller Oh Monday: The election Of The two
is looked for Oh Monday, and Is predicted as |
certain Oh Tuesday.
II WOULD NOT RE SURPRISING |
to see a conditional letter Of withdrawal !
FROM Ccnklin& Oil Monday. although it !
would be entirely contrary To the character |
of the man. As the Democrats SEE the alltic |
ipatea cll.nces Of gain slipping away from |
their grasp they are putting forth renewed |
efforts tp prevent I'LL election. Their Pairing |
Committee has announced that no Democrat |
should pair during the rest of the fight, and /
every absentee will be black-lstel by the party
press. They would combine with ConkIns |
to adjo0rl1. but the Bucks are i'll no position |
now TO carry the contest to the people.
