PUNCTURING PATTERsoNs BOOM.
TROY DEMOCRATS DO NOT THINK THE Elk
SPEAKER WILL BE GOVERNOR

Albany Aug. 25 (speciaD-It was reported here
from New-York this morning that ex-speaker
Charles E. Patterson. of Troy might have the
support Of Edward Murphy, jr and Of Richard
Croker for the Democratic nomination for Gov
ernor.
Troy Democrats, when they heard of this report
said that this the first information they had
had of Mr.. Patterson being considered a candi-
date, and they doubted its truth since Mr. Muir
ply did not need to favor Patterson in order to
bring under his control the votes of the Rensse-
laer County Democrats. AS is well known, Mr.
Murphy is the leader Of the Rensselaer, County
Democrats. and has absolute command Of the
Democratic primaries in that county. 1t is argued
that Croker and Murphy, being opposed to Mr.
Coler's nomination. will support Democrat
who lives in a county that would otherwise sup
pert Mr.. Coler
Mr.. Patterson was Speaker Of the Assembly in
1882, being the representative of of the Rens-
setaer County districts. After his retirement
Speaker. he became aspirant for the Office Of
Supreme Court Judge. but Edgar L. Fursman
nominated instead. This great disappoint-
rent to Mr.. Patterson and after that he exhibited
little interest in political affairs has been re-
ported that he a gold standard men in 1885,
but It was said in Troy this afternoon that he
probably voted for Bryan. Mr.. Patterson has had
law office in the city of Albany for some time;
he was absent from the city to-day.
1t is believed here that prior to the meeting of
the Democratic State Convention q half dozen
Democrats living in the interior of State will
be spoken of about the headquarters of Mr. Croker
and Mr. Murphy in New-York their favortes
for Governor. Such reports will be spread for the
purpose Of dividing the Hill Democrats who other
wise would cast their votes for Coler.
Senator McCarrens statement that the Kings
County delegates the Convention might be forced
to vote under the unit rule thus commented
upon by Democratic leader:
There is no precedent for applying the unit
rule to all the delegates from any county in the
State The unit rule is applied at National con.
Yentions; for there the State is the basis Of
representation In Republican National conven-
tions the Congress district conventions are the
unit of representation. In Democratic State con-
ventions the Assembly district Is the unit of rep
resentation. If all the Assembly districts in
county want to vote unit they can do so,
but to say that the unit rule be applied to
kill off the opposition where the districts are not
in accord is unprecedented and unlawful under
J the Primary law of the State.
The Hill Democrats met with defeat at Amster-
dam yesterday. H. V. Borst the Hill leader was
out Of town; he supposed that the primaries would
be held on Tuesday next Mr.. Murphy's ueuten-
ants called the primaries on two days notice and
carried every ward in the city. Amsterdam CON
trols the Democratic county conventions In Mont
gomery County. The vote of that county therefore
