Hotel in Mr. Fassetts headquarters All the
anti Morton candidates for Governor were pres
ent, namely, ]. Sloat Fassett, Leslie W. Russell.
Daniel Butterfeld. Stewart L. Woodford and Cor
nelius n. Bliss. There were also present Edwin
Einstein, General Samuel Thomas, c. NJ Moore.
Silas b. butcher. Colonel 5. V. r. Cruger, Tim
othy L. Woodruff, Frank Sullivan Smith, John
w. Dwight and ex-Congressman Parker After
the conference II announced that
there had been large gain Of anti-Morton votes
in the course of the day. There had been big
drive made to get votes in opposition to Mr.. Nor
ton in the counties Of New-York and Brooklyn,
and these efforts had been successful In degree.
Colonel S. V. r. Cruger declared that the vote
was now about evenly divided between Mr. Nor
ton and his opponents Instead Of his having
ninety votes, he did not have over s!xty-five.
Other New-York Republicans at the caucus
thought, however, that Colonel Cruger slightly
overestimated the anti-Morton strength In New
York. In their judgment not more than nifty
nine votes would be cast in New-York against
Mr. Morton. But this large gain over
what they had anticipated few days ago, ana
therefore they were happy the result
WOODFORD'S STRENGTH IN BROOKLYN.
In Brooklyn also 1t was reported, there had
day. In all, Stewart l.. Woodford's supporters
thought that he would be supported by thirty
two out of the ninety delegates sent to Saratoga
by Kings County. The other fifty-eight would be
cast for Mr. Norton 1t also reported to
the members Of the conference that there hadi
been a gain Of fifteen votes against Mr.. Morton
In the interior of the State. The members or the
opposition to Mr. Mortons nomination felt great
ly encouraged by this meeting.
Subsequently, S. V. R. Cruger, Horace Rus
SELL Elhu Root and Cornelius n. Bliss held
conference at Colonel Crugers cottage. After
il was over considerable confidence was ex-
pressed by those present in their ability 10
prevent the nomination of Mr.. Morton on the
first ballot. 1t was said that Mr.. Mortons
strength had been greatly overestimated
bitter spirit Of opposition to Mr.. Mortons NOM
ination has developed in certain directions, ana
it is therefore predicted that to-morrows con-
vention will be a stormy one. II is said that
Mr. Depew will not be present at the conven-
tion The programme is TO nominate only the
candidate for Governor tomorrow and to leave
the nomination Of Lieutenant Governor and OF
Judge of the Court of Appeals until Wednes-
day.
The delegates to the convention from the ANth
Congress District, consisting Of the HXlVtn, :,
XVIII XXVIth and XXVIIth Assembly dis
trcts. met tonight and elected General c. II. T.

mittee in place Of Henry Grasse. General COL
