Last Friday, when the Legislature adjourned, his friends laughed at the assertionsof the Adininistra- tlou lenders that neither Senator could be re- elected by Ropubdlitean votes, ‘They sald: “Walt until next week, Our campaign has not commenced, You always talk very vonatfully before the fight, but your oppo- sition don’t amount te anything, Conkling, Platt, and Arthur are coming to Albany to explain the truc contition Zof affairs, and then the Kopublicans in tho Legistature, with the exception of a few kickers like Rob- ertgon, Woodln, Husted, Alvord, and the rest of that crowd, Wii give the two Senators an almost unanimous nomination at the party caucus. If those few Half-Breeds want to holt the action of tho caucus, so much the worse for thom. Conkling and Pintt aro go- {ng to be triumphantly reGlected, and wo dow't belleve there will be any opposition a week from now.” WELL, THE WERK ITAS CLOSED. Conkling, Platt, Arthur, Crowley, Gorham, and a throng of lesser lights have been here. They have been alded by Gov. Cornell, Speaker Sharpe, State-Treasurer Wendell, Superintendont-of-Publie-Works Dutcher, and the whole officeholding portion of the State, Administration; but no caucus has been held, no yindiention nor nomination has been obtained, ‘fhe majority of the Repub- Henus of tho Legislature could not be influ- enced by the appbarance, talk, argument, pleadings, supplications, intrigues, or threats of Mr, Conkling and hfs assistants to carry out the purpose of the former great Maching-, Boss of New York. ‘This afternoon he, and Arthur, and Platt (who has been nicknamed “Me-Too Me-Too" during his: visit) re- turned to New York, having had another conference with Cornell Just beforo their de- parture. ‘Their appearance here, the failure of their misston, the forced acknowledgment that thoy could not control a majority of tho Republican members, and the strengthening and complete organization of the Adiniuls- tration forces aro the features of tha past week. Otherwise tho situation ls not materi- ally changed from what shrewd obseryors sald it was last Friday, THE ADMINISTRATION SIDE has proved to bo stronger than it was thought tp bo, and the Conkling side consider- ably wenker.
