SARATOGA N. Y. Aug. 23-The action OF the
Democratic State Committee was not much of a
surprise to those who knew the inside workings of
the old Tilden machine Strong efforts have been
made for some time past to commit the various
members of the State Committee to the course of
action that carried out to-day. They were
told that they could not consistently do otherwise
that to recognize the County Democracy as the only
regular Democratic organization in the city OF New
York. and to order one primary in each election
district simply carrying out the instructions OF
the last State Convention. Notwithstanding this the
real test vote-that on Mr.. Faulkner's substitute.
giving each organization the same representation in
resulted in tie and therefore lost. An analy-
sis of the vote shows, too that majority of
the country members favored this plan.
The TammaDy members are somewhat disappointed
at the action of the committee. So shrewd politi-
clan as Edward Kearney believed until short time
before the committee met that the resolution which
1T was known would be offered by Mr.. Roosevelt
would be defeated. The County Democracy adher-
ents are not boisterous the victory obtained
by them They realize that Ii Is possible the con-
vention may undo or rather practically nullify the
work of to-day There has been very little badinage
between the members Of the nval organizations
since the committee adjourned. All realize that
the real work is yet to be done before the Commit
tee on Contested Seats of the coming convention.
Each organization will hold independent primaries.
and there will be three Gets of delegates
from New-York the same as last year.
1t is significant OF the temper OF
the Tammany aud Irving Hall representatives that
so soon as the action of the committee with refer
ence to the primaries and the place for holding the
convention was made known kilograms were at
once sent to the leading hotels in Buffalo engaging
rooms for various Assembly District delegations.
Short talks were held by The TRIBUNE corre-
spopdent with the leaders of the rival organizations
soon after the adjournment Of the committee. Il

Edward Kearney said "The action of the COM

before it went into session / was told then that
Daniel Manning was against us. Prior to that
time be had given out that he was IN favor OF har-
