Harmony In Convention
Saratoga, n. Y, Sept 22-Out of a
situation which at times seemed al
most impossible OF amicable solution.
the leaders of the Democratic party
found way to unanimous action. ana
the state convention adjourned with
out day after having nominated the
following ticket;
Governor-D Cady Herrick of Al
bany. at present justice Of the state SUI
preme court.
Lieutenant eovernOr-Francis Bur
ton Harrison. OF New York.
Secretary OF state-JOhn Palace. Jr,
of Monroe.
Attorney general-John Gunner, OF
Erie the present incumbent.
Comptroller - George Hall. OF st
Lawrence, now mayor Of the city OF
Ogdensburg.
State William Munich. OF
Onondago.
Chief justice of the court of ap
peals - Edgar NJ. Cullen. Of Kings
DemD now an associate judge OF that
bench. and the Republican nominee Tie
succeeds Judge Parker.
Associate Judge OF the court of ap
peals-William F. Werner. of Monroe
(Rep). now OF that bench by designa
ton of Governor Odell, and the Repub
lican nominee.
Ex-senator Hill himself presented the
name of Supreme Court Justice Daniel
Cady Herrick. of Albany. Judge Her
rick's name was received with great
enthusiasm and endorsed by cordial
speeches by representatives, OF three
of the elements whose attitude had
been an important factor in the seri
Gus situation which had formed the
subject OF the conference. Incidentally
Senator Hill was accorded a reception
which was little less than an ovation.
Mr.. Herrick is essentially a compro-
mise candidate between Edward VI
Grout and Edward NJ. Shepard. both
of Brooklyn. who practically drove
each other from the field.
4 notable feature of the convention
was the disappearance of all open eyl-
dence OF the facti0nal warfare between
the Kings county organization, headed
by State Senator Patrick H. McCar
rem, and Tammany Hall, under the
leadership of Charles F. Murphy.
The platform adopted includes a
direct personal attack upon Governor
OdeH. as we'll as a denunciation of the
Republican administrations. an en-
dorsement Of the Democratic national
ticket, platform and resolutions and
strongly worded discussion OF state
and national issues from the Demo
cratic point Of view.

RepuIsed BY Russians.

ST. Petersburg. Sept %. - General
Kuropatkin. telegraphing under Tues
days date, declares that the situation
al the front Is unchanged. He describes
an outpost fight Tuesday al Da Pass
half way between BentsiaDut2e and
Sntsintin A Japanese force consisting
OF four companies marched up from
Dziantchan, % miles northeast OF Sal
madzi and tried to capture the pass
and turn the Russian left flank, but
the Russians repulsed the attack ana
the turning movement was checked
by Russian cavalry, supported by ma
chine guns
The receipt Of the news at Toxic OF
the march Of the Japanese from
Dziantchan was the probable origin
of the rumor that Kuroki had crossed
the Hun river. which runs 20 miles
north Of Ia Pass.
There Is further delay in the re-
ceipt OF decisive news from the front
The situation at Port Arthur remains
a blank. though 1t Is felt that import
ant developments may be even now
occurring there. The movements in the
north are still of tentative and pre-
paratory character on both sides which
have not yet crystallized into definite
clash of forces at any one point A re-
sumption of the Japanese advance Is
now expected TO occur any day II IS
the third week since the fighting at
Lao Yang. and the Japanese have had
time to transport achievements from
Yinkow ana bring up sufficient men to
replace their losses but II is not i'm
probable that several days will inter
yene before the armies come to close
quarters The interval Is being devoted
on both sides to feeling out the
strength and disposition OF the oppos
ing forces. The Japanese probably Will
attempt 10 capture the passes OF the
Da mountain range running half way
between the Hun and Taltse rivers.
The possession OF these passes Is i'm
portant for the japanese, as 1t VIII
not only enable them to march north
ward but also screen the movements
OF their troops from the DFying eyes OF
Russian scouts.
II is fully appreciated here that the
japanese must try for the possession
OF Mukden. as otherwise is will be
difficult for them TO provide the army
with winter quarters.
