GOSSIP ABOUT THE STATE TICKET =


THE GENERAL IMPRESSION Is THAT THE NOM
INEEs OF TWO YEARS AGO WILL BE NAMED
AGAIN-INTERvIEws WITH MEMBERS g.
The impression was given out that the state
ticket of two years ago will be renominated
There was some speculation about the att-
tude of State Controller James A. Roberts.
who, it Is known. has frequently refused since
his official. career began. to bow the knee to
Mr. Platt No one present was authorized TO
sneak for Mr. Roberts and TO say whether or
not he has decided to accept q denomination
Rumor had IL that Mr. Roberts would like TO
transfer the nomination to William J. Morgan,
also:of Buffalo, who has been Deputy Controller
under Controller Roberts
Chairman Hackett, on being asked about the
denomination of the old ticket, said: There
will be no trouble about it. All the state ofn-
GERS elected two years ago who want TO be re-
elected will be renominated l have no means
of knowing what Mr.. Roberts will do, but II
ne does not care to take the place again. some
good Republican from the western end OF the
State will be taken up. Places on the ticket
are not going a-begging this year
Plat leaders did not hesitate TO say that Con-
trolIer Roberts must not expect to name his sue
cessor. II Mr.. Morgan was the choice OF the
Republicans Of Erie and the adjacent counties
he might be nominated but Controller Roberts
could dictate" nothing. In spite OF this nervy
attitude. II was well known yesterday that the
dominant contingent were praying that Roberts
might accept. His refusal to run might make
trouble for the machine. and what the machine
is most anxious to avoid just now Is trouble
The machine wants peace. unity, concord ana
harmony as II never wanted II before.
REPRESENTATION FROM THE SEVERAL
COUNTIES
The exact representation which will be ac-
corded TO the several counties could not be
told yesterday. New-York County will gain
FIVE members. probably. and Kings will have
additional members. but how many each Will
have cannot be definitely ascertained until the
courts decide apportionment cases relating 10
these counties now pending The last state
Convention contained 1872 delegates The con-
yent!on of 1895 will likely have from 1853 to 100
members. The gains of the counties, so far as
known, will be as follows
