Hill Gives Up Opposition to Herrick for Harmony, AN ENGINEER DIES-AT HIS POST. Lieut. Schwatka’s Return From Alaska. BASE BALL INVESTIGATION. GOV, HILL YIELDS. He Decides to Permit DP. Cady Herrick's Nomination. Special Dispatch to The Evening Star, Aupaxy, N. Y., Oct. &—The nomination of D. Cady Herrick, the leader of the County Democracy and the representative of Cleveland in state politics, was the severest blow dealt to Hillism in the state since the adjournment of ‘the Saratoza convention. The fight was concededly between Hill and anti-Hill forces in the person of Herrick, and the absolute and unqualified refusal of the latter to acknowledge the gov- ernor's power or right to dictate the nomination of a judge in this district or to re- sign from the state committee prior to his nomination formed the basis of the contention. | Today, however, the governor receded frou | his position and allowed Herrick to be nomi- An interesting story lies behind it all. The candidates on the democratic state ticket Knowing Herrick's absolute power in Albany county feared that the state ticket would suffer if Hill persisted in his course in opposing him, and yesterday Simon Rosen- dale, the nominee for attorney general, and Ed- ward Murphy, the chairman of ihe state com- mittee, begged Lill to withdraw his oppomtion. “I wili be d—d first,” was the governor's forcible reply. Nothing could shake his determination, when heceparted for New York last night it understood that Herrick would be sacrificed, In New York, however, more pressure was ex- erted. Croker, Flower. and in fact the leading democrats of the city, impreseed him with the necessity .of chauging his tactics, and barely an hour before the judicial convention assembled C. M.

Accordingly the work of the convention was entirely har- monious and Herrick received the judicial nomination unannnous!, As on index of the bitter feeling which ex- isted against Hill the following extracts from the Albany Argus today, a paper which is rock- ribbed in its democracy'and has never before criticised the action of a democratic official in Political matters, is xixniticant: “We urge these delegates not to be parties scheme, cherished by one man ouly, a to punish loyalty ‘to party unless it shall be converted into subserviency tc himeelf.

FASSETT'S BRILLIANT CAMPAIGN. The canvass of the state by the indefatigable Fassett is marked by the thoroughness with whieh he discusses the issues, his only weak point being bis continual harping upon the “Tammany tiger.” It is admitted by all, however, that he i# making a brilliant campaign. His brillianey and magnetism us an orato: always commands and his efforts are arousing the greatest enthusiasm among his followers. Flower's inability to speak mpon the stump does not milita:e strongly against him as it would were it not that his conservatism appeals forcibl; to the business elements. It is in direct contrast to the “flippancy” of Fassett and his endless repetition of the same speech. Hill's attitude toward the democratic ticket, including his opposition to Herrick in an ove: i y democratic county, where fealt te jer was courted above all else, has aroused the state candidates,and his actions w to the: will be closely watched hereafter. It is said today that a severe rebuke was ad- ministered to the governor-Senator in New York night and that he will hereafter be more circunispect. In fact it is asserted openly that he docs not care to vee the state ticket elected. Certainly hi have not Flower’s interests one iota. His action and words in New York tonight will be watched with interest. oe ME STUCK TO THE THROTTLE. Engineer James Patterson Killed in « Rail- way Disaster.
