the leadership last winter, fayors JUS

tenant TO Strong in this city, is pre-

John &. Brown said that he fa-
vOred Justice Fort for the nomina-
tlon, but H. E. Pickersgill and H. o.
Bishop, as well as others at the eau
Gus, said that they would go to the
convention pledged to no candidate.
1t began to look certain that, whether
Mr.. Haney wished to bring the dele
gates to an agreement or not, he
would not be able to do so.
Then it was suggested by them
selves that those not delegates should
retire from the room, meaning
Messrs. Haney and Tice, to give the
delegates an opportunity to talk the
matter over. One of the delegates,
however, said that what he had to
say could be said in front of them
all, and others were of like mind.
Then it was moved that they ad-
journ to meet Thursday morning and
go on the SO o'clock car in body
to Metuchen and board the train
there. The motion was carried, and
no further discussion arising an ad-
Journmcnt was taken. The whole SeS-

The delegates to the state conven-
tion from this city are: II. E. Pick ers-
gill, Charles M. MacWilliam, II. O.
