The members az the Committee OF Seventy
who considered that they had done their whole
duty in presenting the full local ticket which
was so generally damned at the conference on
Friday ind ulged In no further meetings yester.
day. Most OF them. in fact. went out OF
the city to spend Sunday. Those who did re-.
main In town said that they were content to
await the action of the county conventions OF
the several organizations on the ticket already
submitted before making another effort to har.
monte the dlscordsnt elements they are trying
to unite.
One Of them, Simon Sterne, tried a little mis-
slonsry work. He attended a caucus Of the
Grace confcrees in Room "a OF the Cooper
Union. held at . o'clock in the afternoon. and
asked permission to persuade the district lead
ers Of the State Democracy that 1t is their duty
to accept the Seventy's ticket, with Col. Strong
at its head. Mr.. Sterne was listened to cour-
teously while he made his argument as q
Democrat to Democrats, but his appeal was re-
ceived with ominous silence. He went away
feeling that his mission had ended in failure.
and that the Grace Democracy was bound to
put a ticket Of its own In the field.
"He said he was u Democrat" said William
F. rote of the Sixth district after the meeting.

well represented by Aqueduct COMMISSIONS

only news which was given out as the result OF the
two hours secret session was that the Assembly

been held last night would be postponed to next
Wednesday night, and the Congress Conven-
tions to next Thursday night, No reason for

This attitude OF the Republicans can be safely
because II Is known that, IL they can
make no terms with the Seventy for the COM
OF the ticket, they can still make a com-
on their own account with the indie
Iendent County Organization and the anti
tO'Brlenl Democracy.
