change in the Republican situation. and by that
he meant that the organization had not selected

Governor Odells son, and ne said that he
thought there would be nothing done in the way
of comforting about a candidate until he re-
turned The nomination of William r. Hearst
by the radicals last night and the decision of the
Tammany men TO turn down Jerome will clear
the political air and allow the Republicans to
size UP the situation.
Mr. Halpin said that it would not be necessary
to reconvene the city convention.

gard to a candidate" ne said II don't know
when the committee vacancies will meet

that bridge when he came to it. Further than

The selection OF Judge Newburger for the va
cancy on the Supreme Court bench is bitter

Counsel John J. Delany. Charles F. Murphy
three months ago gave Mayor Mcclellan and the
Corporation Counsel the strongest assurances
that Mr. Delany would be named TO succeed the
late Justice Van Brunt.

of the United States for a meeting of Russo
Japanese plenipotentiaries in order to put an
end to all the sorrows and terrible consequences
of the long continued war; entaiing many
sacrifices on both sides. My choice fell on you
to go to the United States my pIenipoten-
tiary, and in case the Japanese proposals were
acceptable, to enter into pourparlers to terrni-
nate peace the conditions indicated by me-
: During the negotiations for the final arrange
Hent of peace you have most brilliantly and
successfully performed your task, acting firmly
as worthy representative of Russia. Insisting
on the impossibility of accepting conditions
wounding the patriotism or conscience of the
Russian people and impairing the interests of
your country, you have obtained rightful con-
cessons. rejecting, though with all due acknowl-
payment in any form whatever of the expenses

whose names were on Mr.. Morgans lists offered

In no case is an election inspector to act as an
arresting officer Nor is he to be the complain
ant in any case. 1t being obvious that he should
not leave his post Of duty. Again. even if
name appears on Mr.. Morgan's lists. tho inspec
tor is to use his common sense, and If the man
answers to that name. appears to register,
is known to be a bona fde voter and known
without doubt or question to be in possession of
the qualifications TO register, he must be allowed
to register. and, of course. not put Under arrest
even If the list does call for that arrest.
