Monopoly party met yesterday at Room No III, Astor
House The meeting called for IL o'clock, and soon
alter that hour many OF the delegates assembled in the
halls and In the small room Which had been reserved
for the committee A great difference of opinion
existed as TO the proprety Of calling State Conven
tion before the Republican and Democratic Conventions
were held The advantage of holding convention be-
fore the other parties had named their candidates was
said to be this way the La0or party which holds
its convention on September 12 and the AnttMOnopo
lists could in nominating man who would be IN
measure forced on the Democratic Convention if the Til
den men had any expectation of eectng Democrat
as Governor this fall On the other hand, many of the
delegates argued that such attempt would be
less AZ he Regular Democrats would be unwilling 70
make a nomination that dictated by outside organ
izations It thought by others that the best plan
woud be to take advantage of the mistakes that they
presumed the other parties might make, and to secure
full convention by the union OF all those who were
dssatjsed with the action OF the other conventions
