ALBANY REPUBLICANs CONFIDENT.
STRONG CITY TICKET NAMED LAST NIGHT IN
CONVENTION.

Albany Oct. Q (SpeciaD.-The Republicans Of AL
bany nominated their city ticket tonight at a con-
yention crowded with delegates clearly confident
of a victory at the polls in November. The con-
vention was held in the Common Council room of
the City Hall A large throng of spectators was
present James Ten Eyck presided. Only one
man was named for the nomination for Mayor
namely Charles l.. Gaus, chairman of the
Board of Assessors and highly respected citi-
zen and member OF the National Guard. Mr. Gaus
has had an extended experience in public life and
is the first German to be nominated by either of
the political parties for Mayor of Albany in
generation.
Mr. Gaus will unquestionably receive the votes
OF many Democrats who dissatisfied with the
nomination of General Amasa ]. Parker for Mayor.
in consequence of his having received the support
for nomination of David B. Hill and County Clerk
Patrick E. McCabe. The city of Albany gave
nearly 1000 majority for William Mckinley last
fall and was the only urban community in this
State which gave a Republican gain 1896. 1t
is thus obvious that the Republican feeling In the
city is intense and II is feeling that has been In
creased by the satisfactory record of the Odeil
State administration There Is no national
State matter which would lead the dissatisfied
Democrats to go back into their party at this time
and therefore 1t is believed that Albany Will elect
Mr. Gaus as Mayor by large majority.
The Republican city convention also tonight
made the following nominations: For Controller
for President of the Common Council William p
Hoyland: Auditors, Francis Freckelton and
Elmer H. Havens: for Police Justice. Henry E.
Stone; for Judge of the City Court, w. E. Woolard
