Mr.. shevlin tried his best strange the Coler
sentiment among the delegates by securing the
passage OF the unit rule for the Brooklyn dele
gates tomorrow.
Bridge Commissioner Shea presided Sixty
two delegates were present, the only absentee
being ex-Assemblyman Otto Kempner OF the
Xxth District. who purposely stayed away in
order to be in position to nominate Controller
coler or second his nomination, tomorrow.
Police Commissioner York offered resolution
pledging the delegates TO the unit rule. Edward
Kaufman. OF Controller Colers district, pre-
sented resolution adopted by the xvIIth AS

Commissioner York opposed IL the ground
that single Assembly district could do nothing
either technically or morally binding on a county
organization. Mr.. Shevlin advocated the adop-
ton OF the York resolution. Mr.. Kaufman said
he acted on instructions from his district His
resolution was then promptly laid on the table
and the York resolution was passed.

Because Of Kempner's absence from the eau
Gus. ii was said tonight that Shevlin has
threatened TO deprive Kempner of his seat in the
convention. Again the Tammany men found
themselves outman9uvred by the foxy gentle
man from Wolfert's Roost, as Kempner has the
refusal OF proxy which would let him in any
way. When Shevlin heard OF it, he abandoned
the scheme to shut Kempner out. When Mr.
Kempner was seen tonight he said:
One Of my friends. presumably acting for Mr.
McCarren, asked me to-day If my decision to
stand by Coler was unalterable. l told him
was going to speak for Coer whether or no.
There is no truth in the story that was threat

MERICAN LOOT,
Vast Sum of Gold Taken by Our Trnoi :
will be Held.

vast sum OF GOiu tHRrh ny VuT ITooI
will be Held.
New York, Oct. IA special to the
Times from w 50 g'on SAYS:
The Amer.L4l - r Ot the loot OF
lien Tsin is larger than at first reported.
1t had been understood that all the Amer
leans took after the capture OF Tien Tsin
was gold amounting in value to Sz1S,ooo
The report arose from the fact that Ii
Hung Chang asked General Chaffee to
restore that sum to the Chinese govern
ment. 1t now appears that this $4,000
was only the value of gold coins and gold
bars taken from the Chinese treasury at
Ten Tsin, and apparently it was only
the money taken from the treasury which
concerned Earl Ii as government OF
fetal.
Ii Hung Chang's request for the s27S,'
900 taken from the treasury has received
no reply.
There is considerable doubt whether
the United Stat 5 is entitled to keep this
gold, whatever its amount may nnally be
determined to be, because this govern
ment has been proceeding on the theory
that no war exists in China. Neverthe
less, it is extremely unlikely that the gold
will ever be returned to China, even
that mart of it identihed and claimed by
Ii Hung Chang. 1t may not be reid as
spoils of war, for the reason given, but
it will probably be held as part pay ment
OF the in 1emnity which America will de
mand
