Albany. Jan. William +. Sheellan. OF Bhhaio'
who apparently will be elected Speaker OF the Assem-
bly, without Democratic opposition when the Legislature
meets on Tuesday, arrived here from his home TINS
afternoon accompanied by his wife. lie Immediately
went with her 10 house which he has engaged at NO.
Columbiast. which 0r several years previously mao
been occupied by exSpeaker Hustled and took posses
sion OF IT, little later IN the afternoon Mr. sheehah
went to the Dcavan House, and opened headquarters
in a room there which he had leased for a few days
"The dangerous Illness Of my father, in Buffalo, said
Mr. Sheehan. "has rendered 10 almost Impossible for
me be absent from there at this time. ana Z shaH
return home ; possible presume M Legs
lature will meet Tuesday. The Assembly VIII tlcct
Speaker and Clerk and then both houses Will adjourn
for n week. 10 give the Speaker time to arrange MS
committees Thus far have been surprised at the
small number OF letters have received In relation u
committee places clerhshps. and | have been pro
portionatev happy. There hasn't been muc pressure
vet for the committee places. although presume
there will Ne considerable the coming week.
In the evening Mr.. Sheelan visited Governor liill
AT the Executive Mansion. and the two had a long
conference It Is probable that Mr. shcehun there
learned that there is good deal of pressure Tor the
important places In the Assembly. The Tammany
Hall leaders desire that Joseph Blnmcnml 81 New
York. shall be made chairman OF the committee on
Ways and Means. and thus the Democratic Icauer'
but Charles r. McClclland. Of Wcstche>tcr county
also desires that place; so does Galcn H. hltt OF
Albany County: So lastly does George II. Bush, Of
Ilster County The leadership II Is said mas not been
decided vet by Governor I'M and speaker sheehan
4, vet there Is no contention over inc committee
places I'm the Assembly which have any relation 10 tho
contest over the Office Of United states senator
whether this condition OF affairs VII! continue uhu
Mr. Shccian announces his committees Is doubtful
Politicians bcl,cve that Governor IIlll will Use The
prominent places I'm the Assembly as he would set
~ pawns I'm playing chess and will move them about
so as TO influence the choice Of Senator
Two Tammany Hall men Of prominence arrived here
TO day->cnator Cantor and Asscmblymanelcct Martin
r. Mcmahon senator Cantor said As a body tho
Tauuany Hall members ~ the Legislature do not yet
have candidate for senator. My choice is Governor
Hill think lie should take Il. and those men arc
mistaken who argue that It would be an error for
him TO do 50. IN view II his pos
,Llc candidacy for President II Is selection
also which would greatly please The Democrats ~ tho
state" Assemblyman elect Mcmahon said. on th' same
topic o. know 81 only one canddai" Tor senator
