Plat and the SenatOrship.

Governor Odeli consulted with Ex-Governor
Frank S. Black to the United States
senatorship before Mr.. Black talked with
Mr. Platt on the subject the other day. Gov
ernor Odell assured Mr.. Black of his hearty
support if Mr.. Plat was not candidate and
Governor Odell also told Mr.. Black that his
candidacy would undoubtedly receive the sup
port of a great many republicans at Albany.
Governor Odeli, however, made it plain to
Mr. Black that if Mr.. Plat desired re-elec-
ton he, .he governor, and all his friends,
would stand by Mr.. Plat

carry the legislature next fall there will be
no other candidate before the joint caucus
but Senator Piatt. Chairman Dunn has said
over and over again that Mr.. Platt will be
reelected, even if he resigns the place the
next morning. and it may be remarked in
passing that Mr.. Plat will not resign the
place il he is reelected.
