NEW York, March 1. - Republicans
thronged the lobbies Of the Fifth Avenue
hotel long before the hour appointed for the
meeting Of their state committee. Con-
spicuous among them were two score of
Albanians, wearing white rosettes who had
come down to see that no other city should
have a chance to flch the convention from
the state capital. When the committee was
called to order Eugene Burlingame, William
Barnes, Jr,, and John g. Myers presented
the claims Of Albany in concise speeches,
and were sent away rejoicing. Chairman
Dwight, of the subcommittee TO select q
permanent secretary, announced that John
s. Kenyon had reconsidered his declination
and would consent to serve. It was agreed
that Messrs Dwight and NIilholland will
help to relieve Mr. Kenyon Of some of the
hard work inseparable from his position.

JOHN s. KENYON, WILLIAM BLoMTELD,
Secretary. Chairman
The following resolution was adopted;
Resolved, That this committee hereby hear
ily congratulate tho people Of this state irr,
] nnaatfva Of marty the paau1t pf the g1upTXyf
ors' elections, rejecting as they do the deep an
widespread indignation felt at tho dastardl
and absolutely illegal methods Of Democrats
managers, whereby the Legislature has bee
stolen, the decision of the courts defed and IL
will of the people as expressed at the polls 81
at naught.
To Enlarge the State Committee.
Delegates to Republican state convention
in New York are apportioned to assembl
districts according to the number of Repul
lioan votes they cast at preceding election
The convention of April 2s will consist {
III delegates.
John W. Vrooman presented a letter an
delivered an address in favor of his propos
tion to enlarge the membership of the stat
committee so that a representative may
admitted from every one Of the 12S assembl
districts. He would also, he said, enlarl
, the executive committee, on which falls tl
brunt Of campaign work. The letter WI
! referred to the executive committee f
consideration, and the sense Of the CONVEX
tion will probably be taken upon it.
i Having decided that headquarters are {
be opened in this city as soon as suitab
rooms can be obtained, the state committ'
adjourned to meet in the Kenmore hote
Albany, on the eve of the convention.
