After the first ballot, Potter of Saratoga, offered a resolution that when the joint convention adjourned next Saturday it adjourn to meet on Monday noon June 27th, at the town hall in Saratoga. Foster objected on the ground that the law compelled the convention to sit at the state capital. Madden objected on the ground that two sound republicans would be elected before Saturday and therefore no reconvention-on Monday would be necessary. Husted said: The body could trans- fer its meetings by concurrent resolu- tion of both houses, if one should be made, Petter said: The resolution was of- fered in good faith and if a concur- rent resolution was necessary to carry into effect “he purpose of the resolu- tion he had' {Ilnt offered and such con- current resolution had not yet been offered in either house, he would see that one would be offered at once.

The republi- cans who huve refused to join vither the stalwarts or half brerds conferred for the purpose of uniting in some course of action, but eleven attended | themeeting, and the managers deemed it prudent to adjourn after {Jlllfiill]_{ resolutions to remain united for a compromise on & ticket composed of one half breed and one stalwart, The democrats held a caucus, in which the roll was called. It was found that thus far there were traitors and that the party stood united for its candidates and for adjournment when- ever a coalition with either of the re- publican factions could be secured for that end. At the half breed caucus there were over forty in attendance. It was stated that the stalwarts had determined to secure an adjournment at all hazards, and take the question to the people at the fall election; that Conkling had advised hls followers that he had concluded an adjournment to be the best plan now left for his in- terest, and that he felt sure that if an sdjournment was secured he could, by making a close personal no AY MORNI canvass of the state, effect sutficient change in public sentiment to secure enough of the new assemblymen to ¢ive him a majority in the next legis Iature by unanimous vote It was de termined to use o\'nr{ means to defeat any adjournment and to stay here un til the senators are elected if it takes until December 31st. The stalwarts at their conference decided to sccure an adjournment, if possible; it was announced that on any con- current resolution to adjourn which might be introduced hercafter, suflicient votes had been securcd in the house to pass it, and that in addi tion to the nine stalwarts and soven democrats in the senate who have made a tie vote on all such resolu tions introduced heretofore, two others have been induced to promise their assistance toward passing any future resolution of thab kind by eithet openly voting for it, or by be ing absent when it shall be Lrought up. The stalwarts, after their caucus, openly admitted that their prospects had materially brightened, and holdly announced that they had everything secured for adjournment. ArnaNy, June 21.—The Bradley bribery investigation committec re- sumed its session this morning, but after forty-five minutes adjourned un- til tomorrow on accountof the absence in New York of Mr. Bangs, counsel for Bradley and the committee. J. I, Davenport was present and made a speech appealing to the committce to hear his statement in reply to Senator Stahan’s charge that he had attempt- ed to bribe him by offering him the marshalship to vote against Conkling and Platt. Dayenport was very bitter and said undue advamtage had been taken, that as soon a8 Strahan’s statement had beenmade thecommittee had adjourned for three days to allow the story to have its effect of the pub- lic mind, and now when he (Daven- port) was ready to testify the counsel was absent. It was unfair as he could not again be present before Thursday. The committee refused by a_ vote of 4 to 3 to hear him, but agreed heshould be heard on Thursday. The committee also refused to hear Jas. Tillinghurst, of the Central railroad, until Bangs could be present. The counsel for Senator Sessions remonstrated but to flect, A. Wallace, of Olean, Bradley's home, was upon appeal of council put on the stand. His testimony had proceeded but a few minutes before the committee refused to continue un- til Mr. Bangs could be present, by a vote of 4 to 3, which is the way the committee divides on all questions. Wallace had testified that Bradley stated to him that there would be sen- sational developments in Albany and that members could get money for their votes. FURTHER PROSECUTIONS In the 'Star Route Cases ‘Will be Abandoned Until September Next. Two of the Grand Moguls in the Star Route Swindle ®Arrive in Washington. WasHINGTON, June 21.—The re- port that Assistant Secrotary Upton, of the treasury, will resign upon his re- turn from Europe, is denicd by that gentlemanand by Seeretary Windom, The postponement of further action in the star route cases, 80 far as prosecutions are concerned, untit September next, is a scttled fact. Last k the government expected to be able to begin action immediate- ly. The evidenco upon which the in- dictments against the leading mem- bers of the ring would undoubtedly have been found, was prepared, and would have been lad before the grand jury at the first opportunity, .%udgu Coxe, however, decided to adjourn court on July 2d to take his summer Vacation, The principal defondants came on to ‘Washington fronm New York, ox- pecting that the proceading would be instituted against them immediately. Dorsey arrived here Sunday morn- ing and General Brady came yester- day. The ring are cheered by this postponement, but the government will continue working up the cascs during July and Aucust. According to the chiefl of the bureau of statistics 27,646,619 gallons of petroleum were exported from the United States dur- ing April, an increwse of 6,500,000 over the same month in 1880, Total oxports during the lust ten months however, were less than for corres- ponding months in 1880, R — ARIZONIA WAIFS.

One of the principal points which President Gar. field made in the letter which he wrote to Gen. Grant, while the latter was in Mexico, was that when he ap- pointed Judge Robertson to the col- lectorship of the port of New York, he supposed that the appointment would be perfectly satisfactory to Conkling, Platt and Arthur. —— DETROIT NOTES.

Soon there were rumors concerning his conduct, both before and since his arrival, but they were assigned to jealousy on the part of some of his nale congregation, for he was a fav. orite par excellence with the ladies. At last, however, the facts connected with one of his many trips to Peoria became known, and with this starter his entire record as a pastoral masher came to light, The circumstance re- ferred to was one in which he was found in a hotel bedroom at Rock Ts- land with a married woman, both of them being in nature’s garb only, and drunk as lords. When this and other similar pro- coedings running back as far as the centennial, and embracing a circuit of towns and cities in Ilinois and Mich- igan, came to sight, Mr. Meredith stood not upon the order of his going, but ot away at once and his where: abouts are still unknown.
