James D. Bell, chairman of the regular
Democracy of Kings County and chairman
of the committee on credentials, spoke
against giving the one-third representation,
and Senator Guy of the New York Tam
many delegation said for that organization
that it was willing to bow to the will of the
convention.
But" he continued, 1--WE don't say that
we will go back to our constituents and
say that we will be answerable for their
action"
Jeers greeted this remark
Ex-senator Grady followed Senator Guy,
repeating almost word for word the argu-
ment delivered by him before the commit
tee on contested seats last night.
When Mr.. Grady finished, at 1925, the
vote was taken on the Patterson amend
ment, placing the names of both delega-
tons on the rolls 1t was lost. Then the
question of adopting the report of the COM
mlttee on credentials, giving the contest
ants one-fifth representation, was put and
carried by large affirmative vote.
bfConfusion followed. Tammany men
cheered, and cries of derision were heard
from the spectators benches. In the midst
of it all the Grace Fairchild Democrats
arose and marched out of the hall. Tam
many delegates jeered them, and the Shep-
ard Democrats from Kings rose in their
places and gave the retiring delegates
three cheers. Chairman Belmont pounded
on the desk with his gavel, but it was sew
eral minutes before business could go on.
The report of the committee on perma-
nent organization was presented. 1t
named the Hon. Roswell P. Flower for per-
manent chairman, and the usual list of
vice. presidents, secretaries and honorary
secretaries. Ex-Governor Flower was
loudly applauded when he appeared on

A very ingenious and useful car window
has just been invented The car windows
in use now have several defects. They
are either too loose, letting in dust and
cold, or too tight, making it very difficult
to raise them. This invention is simple
device for rem edying these difficulties.
By means of packing strips, kept In place
by springs, the window is Joined onto the
casing tightly, and at the same time
neatly. The packing strips also hold the
window in place in any position. An
ingenious catch arrangement also enables
the window to be raised and lowered with
one hand. A number of railroad me-

MUST HAVE CHARGE.

Col. Harrison Says Executive Council CAM
Take the Capitol Work From Lescher.
Colonel T. w. Harrison, who is the le-
gal advisor of Mr.. I. II. Lescher, the
newly appointed state architect, has dis
covered a law which clearly takes all
power out of the hands of the executive
council to appoint an architect other
than Mr.. Lescher to make the plans for
the completion of the state house.
This law is found in chapter 169 of the
session laws of 1891, at page 298, sec
ton 6.
This law expressly states that the board
of public works shall appoint one archi-
tect who shall be the sole architect to do
the state work and it repeats all previous
laws.
Colonel Harrison says the board of
public works may appoint other archi-
tects as superintendents. but there can
be but one state architect. The execu-
tive council has charge of the state
house appropriation aud shall say how
the money shall be expended, bu5 the
state architect must make the plans for
the work.

will be in the White Metal.
WASHINGTON, April 1z-The Chinese
imperial edict sent by the Associated
Press last night from Tien Tsin is ac-
cepted among officials and diplomats
here as setting at rest the conflicting re-
ports as to the final terms of peace. The
indemnity of 200 million taels is com.
promise. Japan first demanded 80
million taels, but on the solicitation of
Prince Ii, threw off 100 million taeIs.
At the Chinese legation, it is stated that
the tael varies in value, but that the pres
ent value of the customs or treasury
tael, which is undoubtedly the one in
which payment will be made is $3.50 in
Mexican silver or about 70 cents in gold.
This would make the indemnity equiv
alent to S300,00O,O00 Mexican silver or
$150,000,00O in gold The Mexican trade
dollar is the current coin of China and
the basis of calculation so that the belief
is very strong. though information on
the subject is lacking that the payment
will be in silver

SPRING GARMENTS FOR YOUNG GIRLS.
ATE WITH THE WORKMEN.
ia nes Stokes a Wealthy New Yorker Dimes
the Men Building His House.


NEW YORK, April Thames Stokes,
brother of w. E. D. Stokes, aud Arson
Phelps Stokes, entertained at dinner last
night nearly two hundred artisans that
had been employed in the construction
of the house at the northwest corner of
Park avenue and Thirty eighth street.
Bishop Potter, who sat at the hosts right
and Fulton Cutting who sat at the left
declared that the dinner was without
precedent and marked the dawn OF a
new era when the WOrkmen and the en-
ployer would properly understand one
another.
The affair occurred in the Industrial
building, Lexington avenue and Forty
third street Gathered around the board
was the mixer of mortar and the carrier
of the same, the brick layer. the plum
Der, the plasterer, the mason, the electri-
clan and the painter of the wood work
aud the decorator, who met on terms Of
equality with the contractor, the society
man and the church dignitary.
The whole tone of the dinner can be
gathered from the fact that the wealthy
host addressed his guests as fellow work
men.
There was no caste recognized, and
the bricklayer and the man of means
broke bread at The same table. Mr..
Stokes is a student OF sociology and came
to the conclusion that the solution of the
question of capital and labor lay in both
extending the hearty hand of fellowship
] to one another.
The other reason for the gathering
was because OF a promise that the host
had made himself years ago, that when
he built house those who reared it
should dine with him.
