Senator Plat and President onigg of tho New
York County Republican Committee had a long
talk at tho Oriental Hotel last night. During
tho day Mr.. Quigg, after his arrival from Fishers
Island, had talks. too. with his brethren OF tho
committee.
Chairman Charles w. Hackett OF tho Rcpub-
lican State Committee will arrive in New York
on wednesday. Senator Plat and other Re-
publicans have been in communication with
Mr.. Hackctt, and it was announced on excel.
lent authority last night that tho State Com.
mittcc will meet at the Fifth Avenue Hotel on
Sept. ls.
The announcement as to tho forthcoming
meet ng Of tho State Committee is important,
In view OF tho erroneous statements made
yesterday by Mugwump and anti.l,cpublican
newspapers to tho effect that there is a Low
sentiment among the Republicans in the upper
part of the State.
Senator Raincs and Representative Benjamin
b. Odell. Jr.. Chairman Of tho Executive Com
mittee OF tho State Committee. were given as
authority for this statement. Both Mr.. Itaines
and Mr.. odell declared yesterday that they had
never given tho slightest ground for such n
statement, and IL Is announced on the
best authority that Senator Platt. Gov. Black.
Mr.. Olell, Chairman Hackctt, superintendent
OF Insurance Payn, Superintendent OF Public
Works Aldridge, and all other Republican
State leaders are unalterably opposed to the
stand taken by Jacob Worth in his advocacy OF
the candidacy of Seth Low as against the Re-
publican organization Of Greater New York.
All these men arc old friends Of Mr.. Worth,
yet every one Of them has stated in personal
conversations their objection to his course,
which they know is dictated by a policy
that is intended to help along Mr..
Worth's candidates in the Kings County
Convention. In other words, Mr.. Worth,
according TO his critics, is simply using Mr.. Low
for his personal purposes, and nothing more;
and all this is contrary to the national and
State doctrines Of the Republican party.
The doctrines of the Republicans In their State
Committee will be announced in an address,
fully Endorsed by all Of the Republican State
leaders and by the State and Mr.
Worth. when he reads that document, will find
himself in direct opposition to his old friends. for
the reason that the substance OF the address to
by the Republican City Convention when it
