fully launched yesterday. The vast concourse
of people which assembled in the Navy faid

Navy. which one Republican Administration

The dinners of the Chamber OF Commerce

TO the disturbance in Wall Street and what was
said about it last evening. MIR. Depew's patri-
otto words, commencing the spirit recently
shown By bankers and brokers, and urging
international reciprocity in such matters, were
warmly received. His talk about commercial
reciprocity, especially with the Spanish Ameri-
cas-, was another interesting part OF his speech.
President Eliots defence of the colege-nan in
business was timely and interesting, and will
no doubt be a welcome addition to the recent
opinions on a subject so widely discussed in
consequence of Mr.. Carnegies notable article in
THE TRIBUNE q few months ago.
Speaker" Sheehans talk with Governor
H; on Monday, according to our Albany CORE
spondent, had reference principally to the pol
icy to be pursued in increasing the Democratic
majority in the Assembly and especially on
Joint ballot for the SenatOrship. The plan
agreed on, it is understood, involves the APP
pontment of a Committee on Contested Seats
as soon as the Assembly organizes, in order TO
get some OF the Republicans with slender plu-
raIities ousted before the voting for Senator
begins. IL is difficult to see how Governor
Hill can indorse such policy if he remembers
the earnest message which he wrote during the
last session urging that all contested elections
should be settled in the courts. Or rather. il
