resolution for the appointment OF a com
mlttee on resolutions, when Mr.. Osbornc's
tall form rose at the side OF the hall.
MIR. Chairman" he called, as he held
piece Of paper high over his head. II
wish TO oner an amendment to that reso-
luton"
Immediately some perturbation was APP
parent In the vicinity OF Charles +. Mur-
ply. who was well aware that Mr. Os-
borne. the head OF the opposition, was De.
termined to make all the trouble ne
could.
Martin H. Glynn the temporary chair
man. was obliged 20 recognize the man
from Auburn. though Mr. Osborne STROBE
10 the platform without waiting for an In
vitation.
Chairman Glynn wanted to keep him
from talking. but Mr.. Osborne insisted
on reading his amendment himself.
MY amendment is" he said. that all
meetings OF such committee Ghe resolu-
lions committed be held in the open
There was every evidence that Mr.. Os-
horne had a bitter speech struggling for
uttarance. There had been Kisses as he
took the platform, and they broke out
again.
senator Wagner. after a hurried word
with Mr. Murphy and Representative John
7 Fitzgerald. Of Kings County, broke In
with the announcement:
81 will accept that amendment. am
sure there is no question that we are all
anxious to permit any one who has any
thing to suggest for the platform to state
It in public"
SIN Mr. Osborne wanted TO speak, but
Chairman Glynn suggested that as the
amendment had been accepted there was
no occasion.
81 congratulate you on the change or
heart that Senator Wagner has had ove'
night" said Mr. Osborne. as he left tn.
platform, n broad smile on his lace
There were more Kisses, and Senator
Wagner exclaimed: II don't care to enter
into any controversy with the gentleman
from Cayuga. | desire to say however
that the statement that the gentleman
has inst made is untrue. ! have always |
been for open sessions
The reference OF Mr. Osborne was to
the fact that at the meeting OF the state
committee last night Senator wagner
had opposed a resolution making IL the
sense Of the committee that the sessions
- the resolutions committee should be
omen on the ground that It was none Oh
the business Of the state committee
when the resolution. with Mr.. Osborne
amendment was put TO vote hai the
delegates did not respond. Ihere were
some ayes and a few noes, but the prop
,sition had received the approval OF MI
Nurphy and the chairman declared IL car
red,
The convention was called to order AT
l2:i5 O'Clock. three-quarters or an hour
late. There was little sign OF HE among
the few delegates In the hall until charles
r. Murphy marched in at the head OF the
Tammany delegation. He dld not get
greater reception than did Joseph }. Muir
phy. of Troy, Who arrived little later
The Troy Murphy had about three nun
dred rooters from his home city here IN
the interests OF the candidacy OF Mayor
Cornelius f. Burns for the domination Tor
Governor.
There was no objection to the susges-
ton of Martin IL. Glynn TOT temporary 1
chairman. The applause that marked MS
appearance and broke out at Intervals
during the speech was not of the quality |
that gave any indication that the con-
vention might be stampeded for him FOR
Governor.
one pleasing feature OF Mr. Glynn's re-
marks was that they took not more than
nm hour and forty minutes TO deliver.
His delivery was facile, and ne uckled the
audience with clever Characterization OF
Colonel Roosevelt, but the speech DID not
reach any great depths.
1--WE are here to ratify the nomination
Of the next President OF the United
States" said Mr.. Glynn. That. OF course
was a clew for the convention to go Into
