clined the honor, and pressed the ,nomi..

cocy of that gentleman as capable leader
was graceful tribute to his worth, ana
Mr. Rocker was made the chairman.
Cot. Isaac l.. Goff was chosen as the
secretary, without opposition.
The delegation has been invited to
travel West with the Massachusetts and
the Connecticut delegates and decision

they will go. The prospects are that the
Massachusetts and Rhode Island dele
gates will ride on the same train.
At Minneapolis the Rhode Island dele

the West hotel, one OF the finest hostelries
west of New York city.
Col. Colt has private business affairs to

Two weeks ago a private and special
meeting of the stockholders Of the khode
Island and Massachusetts, Railroad Com
pany was held in this city.
The object of the meeting was to con-
slider the report of subcommittee of
the board of directors as to the advis-
ability Of abandoning the layout from
Valley Falls to this city.
That layout was secured for the bene-
fit of the New York and New England,
leases Of the Rhode Island and Massa-
chusetts, deed by which the latter named
corporation was to obtain an entrance of
their own to this city.
The abandonment of the layout was to
be voted upon by thestockholders, and the
Messrs. Ray of Franklin. who held the
major portion Of the shares of stock, were
reported at the time to be negotiating
with the New York, New Haven and
ings to that corporation, and thus enable
it to shut off the N. Y. and n. Il.
BY reason of the publicity which was
given to this alleged deal the meeting was
ad dieuraed without any pete being taken
1t was ascertained that in the meeting
strong opposition to the alleged deal was
voiced.
Since the adjournment it has been n
matter of extreme difficulty to get at any
inside information.
To-day the rumor is current on the
street that the Messrs Ray have quietly
disposed Of their Rhode Island and Mas
sachusetts stocks to Messrs Rockefeller
and Morgan of New YORK. who are prom
Dently identified with the New York New
Haven and Hartford. II the report is
based upon facts, the New York aud New
England have been done up.
