be empowered TO appoint an Executive Com
mittee of the number that the Chairman con-
siders best. Walter L. Burr was made clerk
and the committee adjourned subject to the
call OF the chair.
HOW THE PLATFORM WAS BUILT.
The Committee on Resolutions, which drew
up the platform, met at 4 O'Clock at the Uni
ted states Hotel. Nelson j. Waterbury was
elected Chairman. The two labor parties
presented resolutions and made speeches
praying that the Democratic party insert in
their platform those principles Of reform in
the prison contract system and cheap labor
question which would insure the vote of the
labor party for a Democratic President.
The following subcommittee of five were
appointed to draw up the platform: Francis
l.. Stets0n, Chairman, Judge ID. G. Calvin. j
5. Ross +. Ambrose and Il. X. Grant. They
remained out until $3.50 o'clock, when Mr. Stet-
son read the resolutions. Objection was made
by Edward Cooper to the tarih plank, which
he asserted was touchy subject, and one that
should he left TO the Chicago Convention.
general debate then followed as to
whether inoo,nthi3oa this tariff plank should

- o'clock-passed, and still the Committee
on Resolutions were hotly, but good humor-
edly, discussing the tariff plank in the plat
form.
The convention, in view of this state Of
affairs, adjourned till $3.50 o'clock.
EX-MayOr Cooper, Judge Waterbury, Mr..
Stetson and Mr.. Ross, who was the author of
the tariff plank in the subcommittee, each IN
turn spoke for and against the clause.
Finally the yeas and nays were taken, and
the tariff clause in the platform.
Each clause of the platform was then taken
up and adopted.
FLOWER STILL HOPEFUL.
Mr.. Flower was undisturbed, apparently.
by any thought that the result of to-dav's con-
vention is unfayorable to his chances at Chi
cago. He claims that fOrty-two members of
the delegation are against Cleveland. He de-
clined to name the specific number of dele
gates IN his interest but asserted that Chicago
was yet needed to decide the probable failure.
The opinions of leading editors here given to-
night are: Joseph Pulitzer of the New York
World: 81 believe that Gov. Cleveland will
have the fun New York delegation at Chicago
l think that he will get the nomination.
think that he ought to have it. l believe if
he gets it he will be elected"
Charles McCune. of the Buffalo Courier
said: AFTER all the apparent opposition to
Cleveland two days ago the result OF the con-
Nentlon SHOWS that Cleveland has to ] as far
as Flower is concerned. and is at present the
most prominent candidate before the Chicago
Convention. He will have a large majority Of
the New y ork delegation there"
Jerome Parmenter, of the Troy Press, which
has been in favor of Flower, thought that
Cleveland had 42 delegates as the result of to-
days convention, but thought the result SO
far as the outlook at Chicago is concerned, is
no nearer than when the New York State
Convention began.
William Purcell, of the Rochester Democrat
and Chr0Rfcle, claims that a majority of the
delegates are anti Cleveland.
