MIR. o'GRADYs DETECTION.

MR. O'GRADNS DETECTION.
Nevertheless. Mr. O'Grady's detection to Mr..
Fish was a severe blow to Mr. Malby, who had
hoped that the man from Monroe would con-
tinue as an Independent candidate. Yet there
was some consolation for Mr. Maiby at about
midnight. Danforth T.. Ainsworth, who is prob
ably supported by at least dozen members,
has been here all day carefully making a sur
Vey of the situation Mr.. Fish was anxious
that Mr.. Ainsworth should come over 10 him,
rightly conjecturing that this would nave
crushing effect upon Mr.. Malby's canvass Mr..
Fish therefore, went to Mr.. Ainsworth and en-
dcavored To persuade him to withdraw in his
favor Mr. Ainsworth positively refused TO do
SO lie also said firmly: II shall go into the
caucus as a candidate for Speaker, even II
have only my own vote. But Mr. AinsWorth
will have more than his own vote, Judging
from certain declarations which were made to-
night bY Republican Assembymen-elect in his
favor. There is, therefore, every prospect that
Mr. Malby's Mr. Ainsworth's and Mr.. Fishs
relative strength will be- tested in the caucus
Of the Republican Assembymen tomorrow
night.
NIr Fish had in his support throughout the
dov ex-senator Jacob Worth. Of BROOKLYN ex-
Collector Francis Hendricks OF Syracuse;
Senator Daniel II. Mcmillan. OF Buffalo; Louis +.
Payn. of Chatham Columbia County; Assembly
man Albert \. Wray. OF Brooklyn: Congressman
Serene f. Payne, of Auburn and large num-
ber of other prominent Republican leaders
