from Syracuse. and went directly to the
office OF Boss Plat at 40 Broadway for
a conference.
Mr.. Hendricks is a companion in mis-
cry. and his visit to the p srublican Cen
trail Power is important because 1t has
an indirect bearing on the factonal fight
In this city.
There is a dispute between Hendricks.
leader of the Plat forces in Onondago
County, and Congressman Belden. who
has a machine of his own, as to which
side is entitled to recognition as being
regular. Both nominated Independent
candidates for Mayor at the last cleo
tion and Hendricks man won. Hem
bricks and his followers have been pro-
scribed by Belden as boilers, and their
right to name delegates to the State
Convention has been questioned.
Mr.. Hendricks was asked to-day II he
was willing to let the local organiza ton
settle the matter without outside inter
ference. the same as the regular New

his claim. His meteoric career viii
come to an ignominlous end.
good many up-country committee
men are in the city: They are Chairman
Hackett, of the Executive Committee,
secretary John s. Kenyon, Mayor
George w. Aldridge. of Rochester,. w.
l.. Proctor. OF Ogdensburg: Isaac Baker.
1r., OF Comstocks; and James w. Wads-
torth, of Geneseo. The general opinion
81 these men is that this Is no time to
)recipitate a party fight, and their
influence will be exercised in favor OF
tnciliation. This Is backdown for
slatt.
He and his man Miholland are beaten
out of sight. That much Is admitted
this morning by the senior Republican
organ and the Tammany organ which
have upheld Platts position. Platt's
cause was Tammanys. because Platts
success meant straight Republican
ticket.
Ex-Judge Ernest Hall, Secretary Of the
Committee OF Thirty, foreshadowed this
morning what would happen II Milhol-
land would be indorsed.
1.-THE party would be disrupted. he
said. at would be the very worst thing
that could be done when success is in

the Union League club of Brooklyn,
declared that Kings County was against
Milholand almost to "A man.
Milholland still claims % votes out OF
So in the State Committee, which Is ex-
actly the claim made by the other side.
The question OF the regularity OF the
factions settled, the New York Repub-
lcans propose to settle scores with
Plat. They think his usefulness as a
leader Ia at an endafter his traitorous
action.
