Chester S. Cole, (which was Captain of
the Port under Cornell, has sent out q
formal declaration on behalf Of the State
Committee that all the virtue of this State
and a majority of the votes, If they can
only be got out, are on the side Of the Re-
publicans. He signs it as Chairman ofthe
State Committee, and urges all Republi-
cans who are not going TO vote the ticket
to come out and vote it, "drive the cor
ruptionists and spoilsmen" from office, and
fiji their places with honest and patriotic
men who will enforce the laws and inaug
urate an era of reform" This is supposed
to be q summons especially intended for the
StalR arta, who, it is feared, are not ex'
tremely likely 10 come out for the sake
of votiog Mr.. COrnell's faction back into
power.
The first big Republican meeting in the
city will be held in the Madison Square
Garden on Friday. Governor elect Fora

talk.
Gen. Carr and Mr.. Davenport are ex.
pected to be here on Wednesday, and to
have a conference 10 settle the troubles
that have arisen through Gen. Carr 8 per.
sonal canvass. 1t is aVerred that he has
been laboring to run himself ahead Of the
rest ofthe ticket, and that secret instruc-
tons have been sent out from somewhere,
saving that his vote must be cut down to
Dsvenport's level An explanation OF the
uuarrel is offered, and it is this;
When Cornell found that he couldn't be
nominated for Governor at Saratoga he
nominated Davenport on the understand
ing that Cornell would make an admirable
man to succeed Senator Miller. AS soon
as Davenport was nominated Cornelfs
friends began TO make preparations for
the next Legislature. Carr was nominated
for Lieutenant-G Governor, and went home
in q huff, uncertain whether he would &C
cept or not. Then he and Davenport had
a conference. Davenport has an idea that
the duties of Senator would be less trying
to his health and rather more digni6ed and
nice than those of Governor, and it struck
him that he might satisfy General Carr
and suit himself, too. 1t was understood
that they would combine to elect Daven-
port Senator, il the people could be
persuaded TO elect him Governor.
This wouli leave Gen. Carr to fill the un-
expired term as Governor and run again
three years from now. The State Commit
tee, specially chosen TO 00E6eiI s-ostet.
got or" 10 this, and the canvass became
as frigid as the chief candidate Gen
Carr came down from Troy and remon-
strated. Chairman Cole, who is one Of
Mr.. Cornells aliases, was not particularly
impressed by Gen. Carr's ideas Gen
Carr kicked vigorously and went home.
Since then be has been running his own
campaign, and has not been very guarded
in expressing his opinions Of the commit
tee either. Neither has Mr.. Davenport's
check book bsen opened as frequently as
had been hoped. Wednesdays meeting is
expected to settle this and bring in har.
