.PLATT'S Vain PLEA.
Seeks to Secure Delay in the
Staying Of Milholland.
Defeat Sure for the Boss and His
Satellite.
Saratoga, Sept. 10, Selected for the
Convention.

Ex-senator Thomas c. Plat showed
that he is the head and front of the
Milholland revolt, which threatens to
disrupt his party. The boss was on
hand early at the Fifth Avenue Hotel
to-day, where the Republican State
Committee met. His misunderstanding
lieutenant, John E. Milholland, who got
him into trouble. was present, and the
boss was there, endeavoring to get him
self out of the mess.
The principal business before the
Committee was the settlement of the
New York City factional fight.
The dictator was there as a supplicant.
He went around among the men he is
in habit Of giving orders to, begging
them for mercy. He wanted to be saved
from the disgrace Of ignominious de-
feat. For the turning down Of Milhol-
land and the ascendancy of Bliss, Root.
| Patterson and Brookfield means more
than the mere extinguishment of the
Milholland meteor. 1t may mean the
loss Of the leadership to Platt.

or a stay Of proceedings He found out
that compromise was out Of the ques-
ton. SO he labored with the Commit
teemen to induce them to submit the
question Of the regularity Of the Platt
! and Brookfield factions to a sub-com-
mittee. 1t will all depend on Mr.. Brook
field If this Is done. He has the upper
hand. Before entering the meeting
room he said he was in favor OF having
the matter settled to-day:
| 1t is foregone conclusion that Mr..
Brookfield,s side will be declared reg
ular. and his followers do not see that
any advantage can be gained by delay.
| They fear that there may be trick
! back Of Platt's plea for time. So Plat
will In all probability hear his doom

fact that they are in the majority

NO YACHT RACE TO-DAY.
Repairs to ViEiIant Not Com pleted
in Time.

QUEENSTOWN, July 25.-There will
be no race to-day between Vigtlant and
Britannia, as the Passage Docks Com
pany, although its employees were kept
working all night, has been unable to
deliver the repaired jaws OF the sloop's
gaff in time for her to meet Britannia
in a race to-day.
Mr.. George J. Gould and the officials
OF the Royal Cork Yacht Club will meet
this afternoon and try to make arrange
ments for a match race tomorrow.
Mr.. Gould telegraphed yesterday to the
Scotland Shipbuilding Companys yard.
at Greenock, on the Clyde (where
Vigilant was altered after her races in
Scotland), instructing them to have an
other new pair Of jaws ready as soon as
possible and to forward them to Pen
zance, Mounts Bay, Cornwall, In time
'or them to be fitted to Nigilant's gaff
before the regatta there on Saturday
next. :
At the Mounts Bay regatta 1t is be-
lieved Vigilant will meet satanita as
well as Britannia, and some interes ting
racing is looked forward to.
Satanita will be remembered as the
yacht which sunk Nalkyrie on July !
on the opening day of the Mudhook
Yacht Club regatta on the Clyde
Satanita, according to the racing pro.
gramme laid out by the gentlemen
whose yachts were to compete with
Nigilant, was calculated to be able t.
beat the American sloop in reaching
Nalkyrie was to have tackled her in
light weather and Britannia was look ed
upon as probably able to defeat her In
stiff breezes and choppy seas. But this
programme was upset at the start By
the sinking OF Valkyrie and the dis
| lbling of Satanita, and IL would seer
to have been sun more upset by III,
TACT that Nigilant seems able to bea
britannia in stiff breezes, while tn,
utter has an advantage over her In
| light airs.
According to the Yacht Racing As
,ociation's certificate OF rating. in 1893
satanita Is cutter rugged, S7.65 feet long
las a sail area OF 1898 square feet anc
| IS rated at 1919 tons. She is owned by
Mr.. A. d. Clarke and was designed b,

During the racing season of ls9

started in thirty-siX races, but she onl,
won seven first prizes and six othe
prizes.
