NEW YoRE's CLAIMS.
The claims Of New York were next
presented, Elliott Il. shepard being the
first speaker. lie dwclt on tho AccOfn'
modaiions New York could furnish,
and he said he had no candidate 10
push up; all would have an equal
chance. San Francisco was his second
choice. New York City usually fur
nishsd tho Republican party two
thirds Of IL slnews Of war. The spirit
OF the Democratic tiger must be met,
deieatoi aud Gagged else tho tiger viii
eat up the country. IL had taken New
York and now was after the balance OF
the United States. A convention In
New York would make tho Democratic
power falter. Senator Hiscock spoke
warmly for New York. There IA
no vacation for New York Repub.
licsns, they must nght TO save the
state from the enemy, and n convcn.
ton meant much for them. Senator
Hawley, Of Connecticut, also apoke
for New York aud Mr.. Fassett closed
for that city. He said there was not
an atom Of force they could afford 10
despise. New York State never but
twice failed 10 give i,s vote for tho
Republican ticket and on one Of those
occasions the grandest Republican OF
them all had been defeated. Great
cheering for Blaine. A convention In
New York would draw out u, 900 Re.
publican votes " hich otherwise would
not be- cast. The nomination or plat
form would not be- affected but the
vote OF the State would be brought
nearly within reach. At this point n
recess was taken Tor dinner.
Govorner Foraker was the ntst
speaker
Dor CINCINNATI,
and his illusions TO "Grand Old John
Sherman and President Harrison,
called forth tremendous applause.
Major Mckinley also spoke eloquen.ly
for Cincinnati.
