New York, Nov. 9.-With a safe

eral candidates are expected to seek

make this city their home have been
advanced by their friends as having
performed party services meriting this
reward. They are William +. Shee-
han, Judge Alton E. Parker, Edward NJ.

view OF the fact that many of the

troll of the legislature possible occurred
upstate, it is considered certain that
the claims OF men residing outside of
