YORK CONFER.
Compromise With the Citizens Union
Thought to Have Been Arranged
By Leaders-PoIiticaI News Notes
In General.

Republican leaders Of Greater New York
was held today. The conference discussed
tine arrangements of details for Tuesday s
convention and the availability of can
didates for comptroller and president Of
the council. No action of a decisive
character was taken. A talk with several
of the conferees gave the impression that
General TracyS name VIII not be pre-
scented to the convention on Tuesday. In
fact, if the very earnest declarations OF
some wen known and inspired statesmen
are worth anything at all. the chances of
a compromise with the Citizens Union
on lines not yet clearly outlined, are very
good indeed, the other candidates spoken
of are AsbeA p. Fitch, to be renom1nated
for comptroller; r. Ross Appleton, of
Brooklyn, for president of the council,
and probably Thomas L. Hamilton for
sheriff
