platforms of 1890 and 1892, which were
the same as the Ocala platform 1t will

time and put out a ticket, against the
nominees OF the Convention.
The portion of the platform denounc-
Ing Cleveland Is as follows:
I'VE denounce the action OF President
Cleveland In appointing Republicans to
office. joining forces with the Republi-
can leaders against the majority Of his
party in the decentralization of silver;
his veto of the Seigniorage BILL the in

TO ADMIT "L0NG FAT"
The Health Board Votes to Amend
the Sanitary Code.

The Board of Health at meeting this
afternoon, by vote of 8 to /, decided
to amend section Sc, of the Sanitary
Code, so as to allow the bringing OF
long fat" so called, from abroad into
the city of New York for manufacture
ing purposes. The negative ballot was
cast by James j. Martin. OF the Police,
Board, who Is an eX-officio memberse or
the Board of Health. The amendment
was offered by DIR. Cyrus Edison, who
was supported by President Wilson and
DIR. jenkins, Health officer of the Port.
On July 6 the Sanitary Code was
amended so as to prohibit the bringing
of all kinds of fat from abroad into the
city for trying or rendering. Henry
Steinert, counsel for the Board, sub
sequently discovered that the amend:
ment would IN all probability not stand
test of law. Long fat" he declared
when taken from freshly slaughteredl
animal to be manufactured into food
products, such as oleomargarine. could
not legally be kept from being shipped
into the city.
The aim, it appears, of the amend
ment to the Sanitary Code, was to pre-
vent the shipment into the city of ship
fat which, under the Sanitary laws
classified as offensive material.
On the other hand long fat" is tally
or suet taken from a freshly kilM
animal, packed in Ice and shipped to u
factories for rendering.
On and after Monday next "long FAT |
may be brought into the city, but tn
packages must first be inspected b
the Board of Health.

PLEASED WITH MORTON.
Republican Busin, IS Men Say He
Is Sure to he Elected.

Is Sure to he Elected.
The nomination of Levi P. Morton
for Governor was received generally by
Republicans in this city with satisfac=
ton. Among downtown business men
whose affiliations are with the Republic
can party it is believed that Mr.. Nor
ton is strong candidate, II not the
strongest that could have been nomi-
mated.
Banker Henry Clews, In speaking of
the nomination, said this morning:
II believe Mr.. Morton will have a
walk-over. He Is a man who has al
ways commanded the respect and con-
ildence of his business associates, and l
think his character for integrity and
uprightness is SO we'll established and
he Is so well known throughout the
State that Republicans everywhere will
support him."
James A. Garland, Director Of the
First National Bank. said:
an excellent one, and will command the
support Of the business community
In my opinion, he Is sure to be elected
and feel confident that he will give US
good, honest administration, and at
the same time strengthen the party in
this State"
Henry seligman. the banker. said
candidates for the Governorship might
be preferred to Mr. Morton by some
Republicans. he, for one. was perfectly
satisfied with the selection made at
Saratoga.
This is a year when. the Republicans
are bound to win. and l expect to see
Mr.. Morton have walk-over," said he.
Some other Republicans expressed the
same views. and 1t was evident from
the talk In Republican business circles
that sweeping victory for the Morton
ticket was confidently expected.
DR.. Chauncey NJ. Depew says:
This is Republican year. The
voters have become disgusted with
Democratic idiocy and incompetency
when in power. My opinion is that
| Morton will be the next Governor of
New York State"
Chairman William Brookfeld, who
offered Mr., Morton's nomination in the
| Convention. Is quoted as saying that
the nominee of the party will receive
the full support of his party.
Gen. Stewart l.. Woodford says:
"Ex-Vice-President Levi p. Morton
deserves any honor that the Republi-
cans of New York can pay him. / be
lieve he Will be triumphantly elected.

Mr.. Bum would say nothing with re-

sharpening his official axe while In the

will commence falling into the basket.
He was especially reticent about the ru-
