A convention of republican clubs of the country ‘Will be held in New York elty next week, begin- ning on Thursday morning at 11 o'clock and last- Ang until Saturday. The Philadelpuia Press says: “All the leading republican elubs of tis city. will be represented fn the gathering. The result of the convention, it 18 expected, will have an important bearing on the Presidential campaign 80 far as concerted work and activity in the or- ganizations throughout the country is concerned. Afew days ago ex-Kevenue Collector Wiillam J. Pollock, president of the Cameron Club, of this city, addressed a fetter to Jon S, Smnith, chairman of the subcommittee’ for the State of Pennsyl- Vanla, of the New York Republican Club, asking him some questions with reverence to the object of the convention. ‘The letter was sent apropos of 8 publication 10 a Philadelphia newspaper to the effect that tie convention was intended to forward the interests of Mr. Blaine for the Prest- gency. Yesterday Mr. Pollock recelved a reply as follows: “4 think that I may safely say that this news- Paper {s entirely mistaken. Our club 1s made up of Fepublicans representing all pases of opinion, and Js certainly not run in the interest of anybody. ‘Two of our members were candidates on the State ticket in the last election, viz: Col. Fred Grant, for Secretary of state, and Mr. Dennison, for attorney- general. The chairman of our county committee and many other prominent republicans of our city are members of this club, but no effort has ever been made to use it for ‘machine pur orto turn its tatluence in any particular direction, ‘The Tesponses which are coming in from clubs ali over the country do not indicate that they are coming to the convention with a set pi of booming any candidate, but rather that they are all bent upon surring ip renewed enthustasm and activity 4m the grand old party and for the good old cause, leaving the subject of candidates for the national Party convention next summer.’” ‘The Presidential Convention, “Mr. Leeds will head a delegation of republicans that will visit Washington this week to be present at the meeting of the national committee on ‘Thursday to fx a time and place for holaing the next Presidential coavention. ‘The Philadelphians Willdo their best vo havethe committee decidein fa- Vor of this city. Among those who will be member of Mr. Leeds” committee are all the Philadelphia Cougressmen, Hamilton Disston, Davia H. Lane, and “A. Loudon Snowden. ‘They’ will be supple- mented in Washington by Senators Camerou und «quay and other Pennsylvania Congressmen. Gen. Bingham thinks the prospect of having the con: Yention held in Philadelphia Is very good. He said Yesterday that he had great _bopes the committee Would decide in favor of this city. It is expected the West will food Washington With delegations anxious to have the committee decide in favor of Chicago or Minneapolis. It 1s said there will be a train-load of people from the latter place With a brass band and banners and all the accessories to a hurral movement in favor of the young Minne- sotacity, ‘That prospect, however, does Not exer- cise the Philadelphians.” ST.
