SYRACUSE, N. r., September 2l,--Tb
Tammany Hall men have just held meet
ing, at which II was decided 20 send com
mittee before the committee on contested
cases TO ask for a representation In the com
| yentlon on the basis of division Of dele
gates among the wings of tho party. The
committee appointed to present their case
consists Of Edward Kearney, 7. B. Spinola,
Alderman Sauer Sydney P. Nichols, Sena'
tors Grady and Treanorec Wood, II, j.
Gumbleton, John G. Boyd ana George l..
Ingraham. The irving hall delegation
took q similar action and appointed com
mittee of twelve, including eX-Judge G. w.
McCurtis, Colonel w. Brooks, ex-senator
Luke Cogens and w. B.. Cochrane. The
state convention was
CALLED TO ORDER
at 1915 by Daniel Manning chairman of
the state committee, who presented the
name of Rufus w. Peckham for chairman
in behalf of the state committee. The con-
vention received the choice of the commit
tee without dissent. On being presented 10
the convention Mr.. Peckham was greeted
with much applause, and on taking the
chair thanked the convention for the honor
conferred upon him. He said: "What is
what is done by the convention will be of
the greatest Importance. Three years ago
the republican party nominated tor COVER
nor a. B. Cornell and the dem ocratic party
nominated Lucius Robinson, doing what 1t
thought the wisest and best for the party.
But owing to unfortunate divisions, our
candidate was defeated. Cornell is said by
many republicans to have conducted
WISE ADMINISTRATION,
but the republican party has set aside
Governor Cornell and abdcation of the
federal administration. The government
has nominated Charles j. Folger. He has
not been nominated on account OF his per-
sonal power, but because he is a representa-
tive of federal power and federal patronage.
we find that the federal administration is
forcing a candidate upon the republicans of
this state. This is the democratic oppor- |
tunity. We want to nominate man here |
who will draw, in addition to the demo- |
cratic vote, much of the half-breed or indie
pendent republicans of the state. ZAP |
plause Never has the republican party |
than since G, A. Arthur became president
by the bullet of the assassin. We arraign
the republican party for its
sUBsERyIENCY TO THE MoNEY-PoWER
OF the country at dictation of Jay Gould
tina. arch conspirator of Wall street, with
s 'rplus of millions in the national treasury. |
We find that the republican party has re-
fused to do anything to release the tax pay
ers of the country"

secretary. The credentials of the three |
delegations from New York city |
