PHILADELPHIA, June 16.-The Re-
! publican national committee yesterday
put in three long sessions on the contests
which have been brought before 1t and
adjourned late with all Of the controver-
sizes practically disposed Of except that
from Delaware. This has been referred
back to the subcommittee. with instruc-
tions to again endeavor to bring the fac
tions to basis of agreement and will re-
csivs final action today. An important
action was the seating of the Brownlow
delegates in the Tennessee contest and
, refusing admission to the friends of Pen
sion Commissioner Evans. The contest
was very bitter, apdi, at one time there
was the possibility of a serious encounter
between Brownlow and Evans.
Quite the most interesting feature Of
the day was the speech Of Senator Hanna
In the Delaware case. Senator Hanna is
earnestly anxious to harmonic the fac
tons in Delaware, and his speech before
the committee urging another attempt at
agreement showed his feeling In the mat
ter.
The action Of the committee in the va
rious contests has caused it to be gener-
ally remarked that 1t has not been infu-
enced In the least by the leaders. Sena-
tor Hanna's friends from the south, espe.
cially the Office holders, have received
scant consideration. Where there were
rival factions Of Office holders, as in Ala
bama, both sides have been denied seats.
The defeat of Wimberly In Louisiana and
the elevation of Yarmouth is said to
have been distinctly antagoHistic to the
wishes Of the closest friends Of the ad-
ministration, as Wimberly was sustained
by the administration In the fight that
was made against his confirmation when
he was appointed collector Of the port Of
New Orleans. 1t was in opposing this
confirmation that Yarmouth took occa-
sion to make some bitter remarks about
Senator Hanna, who was supporting
Wimberly. In the New York case it is
