MORE TALK ABOUT EXTRA SESSION
NO INTIMATION AS TO THE GOVERNORS
DECISION-ADDlSON b. COLVIN DIS
Ci'SSTS THE QUESTION

All tho arguments and papers relating to the
proposed extra session OF the State Legislature
have been presented TO tho Governor The organi-
za;lon Republicans have explained In detail the
need in their opinion. OF taking legislative action
TO counteract Mayor Van Wycks summary ro-
moval Of tho two police commissioners and It's
consequences and asked for relief Now they are
waiting for him TO act and many hope that he
will point out way 10 secure somo redress. State
Treasurer Addison Il. Covin same down from
Albany yesterday and ut the Fifth Avenue Hotel
last night said that he believed there would be an
extra session.
There are" said Mr.. Colvin. three urgent rea-
sons why there should be extra session. In
the first place. We should provide way for the
soldiers In the field to vote. In the second place,
we must provide for tho extra expense incurred by
the war; and. third. It is imperative that the Elec
ton law be amended to insure honest election
In New-York. The feeling up tho State Is strong
in favor OF doing something to counteract Tam
many's act. As for tho Governor you can rest
assured that he will do what Is right. There Is
no man in the country who has a keener sense OF
the situation than he. There is no man IN public
life whose efforts for honest ballot and a fair
election have been persistent. His life has been
one long struggle for honest ballot When he

exnressed recently by heads OF departments OF thJ
CITY government and their followers. VINO Old not
choose to make any criticisms before Mr. Croker
went abroad They have been declaring that the
plan TO stop oil public improvements on the plea
that tho city's debt limit had been exceeded was
a stupendous blunder for which Mr. Croker was
responsible 1t has come tolight that the stopping
OF payment on al contracts ana the throwing or
thousands OF workmcn out OF employment for a
time caused profound disgust In the Tammany Or
ganization. The belief that Mr.. Croker was
anxious TO make money in street railway stocks by
raising an issue defeat real rapid-transit plans
increased the feeling.
Since the latest opinions OF the Corporation Coun

box and the Controller has come 10 the conclusion
that he issue bonds to pay for public improve

issues apparent 10 everybody. They say tina. the
Tammany organization has received staggering
blow. Thousands OF men In the organization might
have been employed In dock improvements and IN
