New YoRX, October % The split of the
Democratic organizations on the nomina-
.icns for Senator's, just when the county
Democracy thought everything was going
10 be pleasant, has been the chief topic OF
conversation in political circles to-day. Il
is said that the precipitate action OF Tam
many Hall caucus yesterday, in ordering
its Senatorial Conventions to nominate
candidates last night. was caused by a state
mept, made by Mr.. Kelly, that Governor
Cleveland had personally opposed the re-
nomination of Senator Grady, stating 1t
was his desire that Senator Grady, un-
der no circumstance, should receive the
UniIea Democratic Nomination.
This information came to Mr.. Kelly from
such source that he could not hesitate in
accepting it as true, and consequently he
forced matters to an issue at once. To-day
Mr.. John Kelly reiterated the Opiaion he
expressed yesterday, that he did not think
the county ticket would be at all endan-
gered by the disagreement upon Senate
nominations m
"It's unfortunate, said Mr.. Kelly, that
a union was not effected upon nominations
for the Senate, but it is not our fault"
Mr.. Kelly went on to say that the whole
trouble was caused by the refusal OF the
County Democracy to accept Senator Grady
in the Sixth district.

Postmaster General Gresham will base
his action upon section 1894 OF the Revised
