 cans Last Night.


 Saratoga N. Y, Sept 25.-No repub- lican convention in years has found such a tangled skein to unravel as that which confronts the one to meet here on Tuesday next The warning factions are each firm in the conviction that their respective candidates will win and zest is lent to the contest by the announce ment that Governor Black himself will take hand in the fight by coming here in person tomorrow Edward Lauter- back of New York, arrived here this morning with a large number of Kings county and New York city delegates and joining Supt Aldridge, Supt. Col lins and Supt. Payne of the Black forces, began active work on the can vass. Outside of MT. Roosevelts own statement as to his alleged ineligibility and the belief that Elihu Root is pre- pairing an opinion there have been no developments to-day on the Roosevelt side of the issue The slate as prepared by the leaders claiming to have control of the convention and as given out as that to be named on Tuesday is as fol- lows:

 It is believed that the convention will last but one day it being believed that all difficulties will be settled on the first ballot for governor. The Black adher- ents have decided not to make a fight on the organization of the convention. Chauncey M, Depew will name MT. Roosevelt and Delegates Cullinan of Os- wego, Farnham of Orange and Wallace of Queens will second it. Col. Lowell H. Jerome who is here as per- sonal representative of MT. Roosevelt said to-day:
 T do not believe that the Citizens Union can use state ticket emblem and if they attempt to run a separate ticket it will make trouble for them. I have sent the following letter to them: T am astonished to see the attitude that a self-constituted body, feigning to represent the Citizens Union are talk ing in regard to endorsing state ticket which ticket was named, not nominat- ed, mark the distinction, by the same body of men feigning to represent the independents. As self-constituted inde- pendents they met in the city club and named the ticket and then adjourned to the Citizens Union headquarters and endorsed the same I most earnestly protest against the names of independ- ents and Citizens Union being in this connection as they deceive the public. My connection with both organiZa tions gives me this right. I was working independent before the Citizens Union was conceived. MT. Kitchener of Bing- hamton, is mistaken when he asserts that the Citizens Union is the father of all reform movements. As a member of the Citizens Union I hereby give notice that I shall mandamus any one using the emblem on the state ticket without consent of the entire body. No self constituted body within the main body has that right, at least, shall ask the courts to decide that right"
 Senator Platt took a drive about the village to-day and in the afternoon held frequent conferences with the various leaders. He did not talk for publica- tion
 Congressman Quigg said: "Mr. Roose- welt has not suffered by reason of the attack made upon him, but those who made the attack have. MT. Roosevelt will be nominated and elected
 Lieut.. Gov. Woodruff when asked if he would accept the nomination upon the Roosevelt ticket said: T will pos itively not accept nomination upon any but the Black ticket without the consent of the governor and his friends"
