Brooklyn organization. and resolutions were passed
strongly urging the conference committee of the
anti-Tammany forces to consider Controller Coler

The meeting was called for the purpose OF effect

County. Ludwig Nissen the temporary chair

committee on permanent organization. consisting OF
Joseph McGuiness chairman; Jackson Wallace.
George S Richards Jacob ]. Kappes and Frazier
NJ Moffett. This committee retired. and while II
celebrating resolutions expressive OF sympathy
for President Mckinley and denunciatory of his at
tempted assassination passed.
When the committee organization reported
Mr. McGuness announced that three members
were In favor of Ludwig Nissen for permanent
chairman, and two wished TO report in favor of
VI. J. Flaherty. The convention at once got into
a parliamentary tangle over the proper way to
proceed. Finally Mr. Nissen announced that un-
der the circumstances he would not consent to
act chairman. and was willing to retire In the
interests of harmony. The committee on organ
zation then retired again and a %i,a
be made ehairman man tn This 5eRor was adfopfed and
sure of his election, as he had typewriter sheets
headed Speech of NJ. J. F1aherty, Permanent

ing the following resolution:

among others candidate for Mayor OF New-York
City:
Resolved That We urge a reconsideration of the

present Controller Bird s. Coler.
We further declare that II Is wish that he be

sentatves to submit choice the general con-
ference at their earliest opportunity
This was vigorously opposed. particularly by
Frank Harvey Field, president OF the Young Re
publican Club. Another tangle Of parliamentary
quibbles followed and everything was done to have
the resolution laid the table. It was finally
passed by large vote, only a score or so of votes
being cast in opposition. Many of the independent
Republicans were too disgusted TO vote.

THE NEEDED IS HAKE DOWN.
SULTAN SETTLES ONE CLAIM.
BELIEF THAT DIPLOMATIC RELATIONS
WITH FRANCE WILL SOON
BE RESUMED

Paris. Sept 10.-It is expected in official circles
here that the Sultan of Turkey will ask the
French Government now that the Tubini claim
has been settled by direct negotiations between
the claimant and the Porte, to resume diplomatic
relations France will reject any such propo-
sition. and until the Sultan has yielded In the
of the Lorando claim, which is nearly four
times the amount of the Tubini claim NJ. Con-
STAINS will not return to Constantinople. Advices
from that city say it IS believed the Lorando
claim Will shortly be settled.
The attitude of the Sultan toward the French
claims is undoubtedly attributable to the execu-
tion of the decree of the French Minister of the
Interior in expelling Turkish spies from France.
The decree had been held back for several days
in the hope that the Sultan, who. naturally, was
aware that IT had been drawn up would take
the hint. The patience of the government
finally exhausted. and yesterday evening Feri-
doun Bey, head of the Turkish police in Paris.
and another spy ordered 10 leave France.
This step was followed by to-days announce
ment that the Sultan had settled the Tubln!

been surprised at the large attendance and the
enthusiasm displayed. This is the organization of

On the roll call of each district the leaders re-
ported their enrolment, which ranged from $50 to
zoe. The banner districts the XXVIth, with 10
and the XXXIVth with 80. A significant thing
was that the majority of the leaders declared that
they were former members of Tammany but re-
signed account of the way that organizati
is conducted. Fully 10 per cent of the enrolled
members ex-members of the Tammany organi-
cation. This indicated a remarkable withdrawal

treason. brought up again in the Bow
Street Police Court to-day. DR.. Krause was in
formed that warrant charging him with in
citement to murder was issued in the Transvaal.
Sir George Lewis, on behalf Of the prisoner. said
it seemed strange since DR.. Krause had been
in England for fourteen months as a parolled
prisoner of war, that warrants should be issued
in the Transvaal because of acts committed in
England. and he asked how a man not an Eng
lish subject could be charged with high treason.
