EXPECTED


Tho Republican County Committee of WestcheSter.
which meets a. the Orawanpum Hotel. Nhte PANS
ths afternoon AZ o'clock besides fixing the date of
the County Convention. will have an important SUD-
iect 10 decide concerning the reapporticnmen of
delegates from the several towns. At IN" last meet
ing OF the committee the question of reapporton-
ont was brought up and referred 10 special COM
mittce. whose report will he presented at to-day's
meeting II the committee bases its reapporton-
ment on the Republican for President In 1896
the next county convention will have 2l5 delegates.
instead OF 902 as heretofore Some Of the towns In
the lower portion of the county. account of their
recent rapid growth. will make large gains in dee
gates. Vernon is entitled twenty-four del
egates instead OF thirteen: Yonkers. forty-two in
stead of thiry-two New Rochelle fifteen instead Of
nine; Greenburg. nineteen. instead of fifteen. and
Rye fifteen instead Of thirteen while White Plains
and Ossining gain each. On the other hand. the
following towns in the northern and middle sections
OF the county lose .wo delegates each: Bedford,
Harrison. Lewisboro. North Caste. North Salem,
Pelham Poundridge. Scarsdale. Somers and York
town East Chester and w-Castle will lose
delegate each. while Cortlandt. with twenty dele
gates. Mamaroneck with five and Mount Pleasant
with nine. remain heretofore.
Behind these gains and losses Of the several towns
lies the problem OF gain and loss to the two Repub
can factions in the county the Robertson Ward
and the Fairchild- Burns wings of the party III a
reappOr ionment Is made the lines above Indicated
the Robertson people will sustain net loss of about
thirteen delegates which is almost equivalent TO an
acknowledgment OF defeat IN the coming county
convention.
In view OF this fact and with the present county
committee controlled by the friends of Judge Rob

idea is not likely to be greeted with any great
enthusiasm or 10 be adopted without the closesI
