Special Diepiich to The Chleago Tridune, Nzw Yong, Oct. 2 —A special to the Times from Albany aays there Is one phase of the old ornew ticket fight among the Democratic faith- fulof New York which will not reveal itaelf fn {he State Conventlon fo-morrow, but which will uevertheless have a narked nfluenee upon the proceedings. Itis a well-known fuct that Mr, Tilden, fust Dbefore Nis departure for Europe, cxpresscd himsell in fu yor of a pew ticket, and by his a:tion In taking Sceretary-of-State Bigelow with him, 7irtually announced that the gentlenan pamed was not & canaidate for renomination. Itisnow an cqually well-known fact that Gov. Kobinson, Measrs. Apgar, Daley, Falrchild, and the uther Tilden agents, are engaged in o fran- ticeffort to renouninate the old ticket, placing Mre Bigelow at fus head, a8 before, and that Mr, Tilden favors the movement. 'Tho explanation of this apparently MTSTHIIOUS CHANGE OF FRONT cannow be given. When the defeated candl- dato for the Prestdency took bis departure for he made Mr. Bigelow the com- voyagre, und announced his ilesire sr the sclection of anew tlcket, firmly heliey- Ing that Muzone, Chalrman af the Deémocratle Atate Central Comumittee, or sonie other cqually falthful supporter of the Tilden interest, would be ablo to sccure the numination for Secrctary of State, and that tho rest of thy tleket would ba tade up ol men loyal Lo the cause of Tllden,and auxtous to further his plans for the future, Tllden lad searcely turned hils back on Grammercy Park, however, when it was discovered that “dohn Kelly s | Tammuny werculso in favor of a new ticket, and that they, together with a very powerful influence fn the Interlor of the State, adyocated nteroats in cvuryvm{v antagonistic 1o the late standard. bearer af the National Democracy. Not long after, when ft becatny nylxlnucnl, thiat Allen Co Beach was lkely to protit by the Tilden moye- ment for a new ticket, Uov, Robineon, DY ORDEIR O 1118 AUSENT BENKFACTON, at once hastened to inforin the prople that it was neeessary o his Administration that Blges low, Fairchild, and company should be renome {unted, uud to demand of the vacty that the names of thogs gentlemen shoufil again be placed upon the Democrntic ticket, Before this order had been sent omt, however, it was nvnnn:nt that Mr. Tilden's deslre to coutrol the Conventlon tarough his ageuts had been defeated by the moveest for u new tlcket, which he himeelf lint inangurated hy taking Mr. Blgelow out of the country, The cundidocy of Mr. Beach for that gentieman's pusition wus o mostunwelcome surpriee to those Kentifled with tho Tildun Intereat, for hois about the last man fu the Stato whoss political suc- cees would bo wsreeable to the wandering statestuan or Mr. Bizelow.

So this new departure of the Wisconain De- mocrucy canunt be accounted- for on the theory timt the late State.
