Hotel in the evening to talk the nominations and
the prospects OF the election I'm November The familiar
faces of the men who have figured conspcuously for
several years the party primaries were seen in the
halls, reading-room, and barroom. few retired TO the
privacy OF paror, and in the intervals OF discussion
upon the action OF the Convention and the probable
effect upon the people read kilograms received from
their friends at Utica informing them OF the secret
doings OF caucus manipulations and arrangements.
The nominations appeared to be accepted with quiet
acouescence If the result had not been altogether
unexpected The preference for A. b. Cornell for Lie-
tenant freely expressed In certain circles
but IL was generally conceded that his nomination in-
volved too many difficulties 1t was admitted that the
military element the party could not be ignored, ard
that the effect Of change in the second place on the
ticket might have proved disastrous to the whole ticket
Besides it was claimed that the other State officers
feared that break in one point might affect ALL and
therefore combined TO themselves by COM
peling the denomination Of the present Lieu
tenant-GOvernor The more prominent politicians, who
were apparently well informed in regard 10 the internal
working OF thief party machinery, concurred In these
views but gave another reason for the denomination of
all the present State officials They claimed that within


very few days ex-senator Edwin ID. Morgan had mani
tested strong inclination TO take an active part IN TINS
cauvass that when 1t was found that Leut.GOv Rob
could be set aside without injury to the party

sending to the United States Senate ex-Gov. Morgan
and not Gov Dix. 1t freely stated that ex-senator
Morgan had never forgotten his defeat by Senator
FentOn when the latter elected United States Sena-
tor after most bitter contest, and that Mr.. Morgan
would be much gratied TO take Mr. Fenton's seat In
the Senate. This new combination they believed would
greatly strengthen the ticket and insure its triumphant
success in November. The significance OF ex-Gov Nor

upon to its permanent presiding officer was men
toned strong cOrroboratve proof Of the alleged set
tement OF differences.
