lBY TELEGRAPH TO THE rRIBUNEl
BUFFALO, Sept. 25-The fact that there is practi-
esly no contest between the various delegations

politicians here with very little to interest
them beyond the quality of Buffalo wnlskey
and the chance of getting bed 10
sleep on in the swarming hotels. The rivalres De-
tween candidates have hardly developed as yet'
and the gossip about the feeling against Mr. Man

ooubtful il this feeling ever amounts to anything
more than grumb ing under the breath 1t IS plainly
bitter on the part of some. These men charge mat

1t is difficult at this time to derive any clear
ePniol regarding tho probable composition OF ths
new committee, owing TO the rearrangement OF tue
Vongrsssoual Districts under the new apportlon-
neat. For example. in New-York City the County
democracy now has four committeeman, Iammany
wo and Irving Hall one; who is TO have the extra
committeeman. This will be an interesting ques-
lion to decide. The three Assembly
Districts in Canandsgua County are
contested. The admission of one set OF delegates

seeman and Manning man, committeeman the
admission of the other will make T.. 5. Jenney, an
