 Iudepeudence Lesaue
HEARST OR SHEARN

New York, Sept 24.-That sur prises would be sprung tonight at the state convention of the independ- ence party in this city when w. K. Hearst is expected to deliver the key note speech" of the campaign from that party's point of view was generally believed by the leaders who discussed the matter to-day. It is understood that in his address MT Hearst will present another install ment of letters dealing with the Has, kell-Monnett controversy.
 While it was said the convention tonight would be an open one, and that no cut-and-dried slate has been arranged to be placed in nomination quiet boom has made headway for Clarence J. Shearn for governor. MT Hearst has also been talked about in connection with the head of the tick ct, but 1t was learned from supposed ly official sources that he would not accept the nomination even If tender ed to him.
 The only two other names so far mentioned for gubernatorial honors are those of Reuben R. Lyon of Bath, N. Y, and Henry A. Powell of Brook lyn, the latter giving out statement to the effect that he would decline any place on the ticket.
 It was rumored to-day that MT Hearst will abandon his speaking campaign for the national ticket and concentrate his efforts in this state Last year the independence candi- dates for the court of appeals boiled about 120,000 votes and the party leaders assert that they are as strong as ever, and with man like Shearn at the head of the ticket, will cut heavily into the labor vote.
