Proceedings ot the Various State and District Conventirns Yesterday. NEW YORK. AN ARTHUR-EDMUNDS ALLIANCE, Urica, N. Y., April 23.—The arrange- ments are completed for the republican state convention which meets here at noon to-day. There is an intense feel- ing of uncertainty as to the outcome of the struggle for the supremacy in the convention, but it is generally conceded that the Kdmunds delegates, if they work in union, can throw the organiza- tion of the convention into the hands of either the Arthur or Blaine men. THE DELEGATES-AT-LARGE, The E imund s nen held several confer- ences last night, aud overtures were made them by the leaders of the Blaine and Arthur forces, but they refused to treat or name any terms other than naming the four delegates at large, and the tem- porary chairman.* The Arthur leaders accepted the proposition of the Edmunds this morning, and the latter named An- drews, White, Edwin, Packard, Theodore Roosevelt and Senator John P. Gilbert as delegates at large, and George Z. Ervin as temporary chairman, The Edmunds men claim from 60 to 80 delegates, while the adherents of Archur claim a few over 200. It requires 249 votes to control the convension, and should the combination hold there is likely to be a short session, A BLAINE MIS-MOVE. About noon the Blaine men changed their programme for delegates at large, and subatituted the names of Roosevelt and Gilbert, ‘which are already on the combination ticket, for those of Sloan and Erwin, endeavoring to bresk the combination. The Edmunds men refuse to accept this compromise. The convention was called to order at 12:30. The roll ca'l showed the only contest would be on delegates from Mont- gomery county. Roosevelt then nominsted Nathaniel O, Boynton, (Edmunds-Arthur candidate) for temporary chairman, Warner Miller moved to substitute tte name of Edmund L, Pitts for tempoiary chairman, The roll call was then ordered FOR AWTHUR AND EOMUNDS, The delegates from the 234 congress- sonial district, this morning elected as delegates to the national convention, Lee ‘R, Sanborn and Giorge H. Urban, Jr., one for Arthur and one for Edmunia, BOYNTON WINS, There was tremeudous applause min g'ed with hisses when Thomas C. Platt vo ed for Pitts, Thi secretary announced 491 votes, of which B iynzon received 251, and Pitts 240. Deafenin cheers greeted the annou e- mo 1t of the result, The chairman de- olared Buyuton appointed, Boynton took the chair amid loud ap- plause. Committees on permanent organ'za- tirn, or contested seats, consisting of two from each judicial distriot, andonrasolu tions, were then appomted, When the oconven:ion reassembled, Boynton, temperance chairman, was made permanent chairman, It was then ordered *‘that the roll of delegates be called, and that each dele- gate rise in his place, and name his choice for four delegates at largs from this state to the national republican con- vention." While the tellers were engaged mak- ing up the result of the roll call, the committee on resolutions presented the platfurm, as follows: The republican party of New York, in convention represented, declares; First. Its confidence in the sucoess of the republican party of the nation in the coming presidentisl election under stang- ard bearers to be named in the Chicago convention, becauso cf the necessity for the continunes of the republican admin datration of the affsirs of government, which democratic inability and incipaci ty would imperil; because the forms of reoublicanism throughout the land, em- bodying the superir intelligence and numbers of the people, are united in the support of principles and policies india- pensable to the republic’s welfare. Ita grest respect for Presi- dent Chester A. Arthur, whose adminis- tration, began under circumstances of pe- culiar sadness, delicacy and embarrass- ment, has, by its eminent prudence sagacity, commended 1tself to the esteem of the country, and as such receives the cordial acknowledgoments of the republi- cans of his own state, Third. Irssatisfaction with the honest, frugal and intelligent governmentai ex- penditures, the reduction of the public debr and interost eharges, relieving the people of unnecessary burdens, ascom- plished by republican management. Fourth, Its approval of that policy of protecting home industry from foreign competition, which has, through a centu ry of national being, encouraged immigra- tion, rewarded labor, fostered enterprise, and assured unparalleled progress and prosperity to all avocations, a deviation from which policy would have been the occasion of business confusion and disas ter which heretofore have been justified alike in intelligence and by experience. Fifth, lts determmation to adopt all farther measures rcquiced to improve the service of the government in all its de- partments, snd to regulate the methods of appointments thereto, so it shall be brougnt to the highest possible state of effi -iency and iategrity. Sixth, Its purpose that equal civil rights shall be mamtained uuder the yuarantees of the constitution everywhere w the land; shail be respected so that ev- They say that if the Blaine men hold amass meeting to-night, as proposed, it would result in the election of Sher- man delegates with Sherman instrue- tions. They claim it will kill Blaine's chances. The platform adopted by the conven- tion will include resolutions condemn- ing congress for its action on the wool question, and condemning the Ohio leg- islature for its disgraceful actions. A resolution will be offered suggesting Joln Sherman as the most available candidate for president; a resolution endorsing the administration of Presi- dent Arthur, will be adopted; a reso- lution endorsing the Scott liquor law also. The Blaine men are putting forth every effort to have a solid Blaine state delegation sent to Chicago. Last night the Sherman men were disposed to talk of a compromise, proposing to send the delegation uninstructed for any candi- date, but the supporters of the Maine sl sman would agree to nothing that would detract in the least from the strength of their candidate in the nat- ery voter shall have a free ballot which shall be honestly counted. Seveuth, Its recognition of the nation- al ubligation imposed by the enfranchise- went of the unedncated race; its appre- ciation of the extraordinary burdens thus laid upon certain commonwealths; its cordial approval of . legislation, within just constitutional limits, which shall extend fderal aid to the various states in the work of education. Kighth, Iis favor to the equalization and just distribution of taxation. Ninth, its wish for the removal of all unjust restrictions unon American ship- piuy interests, the development of our maratime industries, and as incidental thereto the estublinhment of our navy up- on a fouting in keeping with modern ne- cessities and our dignity ss & nation, THRER CHEERS AND A TIGER POR ARTHUR. When the rifarence to Presidont Ac- thur was made, there was long and 1ud applause, and i. response t) call for three cheers, they were given with a will and a *‘uiger.” DELEGATES AT LARGE. At the con usion of the read ng of the platf rm, the te lors announced the re- sult « f the buliot for delegates at large as £ llows: Theodore Rooravelt 472 Andrew D, White 7 John I Giltert Kdwin Packar ‘Warner Mil er Aloozo B, Cornell ‘The chuirian deciared the first four gentlemen duly elected. The nomina- tions were then made unanimous, but there weres few dissenting votes Senator Miller and ex-governor Gor- nell were named on the ticket with White and Rosevelt, by the advocates of the nomination of Edmunds. Roosevelt and Gilbert made short speeches. V2 THE STATE TICKET. The convention decided to finish its work fr the year, and Judges Audrews and Rapello ¢ f the state court «f appeals were re-nominated. CONVENTION REPRESENTATION. Sentator Miller preseuted his plan for the liberation of the republican party, providing for direct represeatatin by the people in conventions, Mr. Miller moved that his plan be referred to the state comwmitteo. George Bliss moved te substitute a special committee to be appointed by tne chair, for the state committee, and moved the previous question. Bliss’ mo- tion was adopred. A COLORED ELECTOR. On motion of a colored delegate it was decided that the colored voters have a Tepresentative on the electoral ticket.

" THE STATE CONVENTION. Tpecial Dispatch to tha Bk, CLEVELAND, O., April 22.—For dele- gates-at-large the candidates thus far in the field are Ion. S. N.

Joln Beatty, of Colum- bus, and Hon. R. C. Parsons, of this city. Ex-Gov. Foster is alsospoken of, but not to any great extent. It was said last night that a slate had been prepared which is to include the name of Judge Foraker, Gen. Beatty, Col. Parsons and a colored man, The col- ored men will meet at 5 o'clock this afternoon and select one of their num- ber to go before the convention as their candidate. Those already mentioned for the place are Rev. Poindexter, of Columbus; Walter 8. Thomas, of Dele- ware, ex-assistant clerk of the state senate; Hon. John P. Green, of Cleve- land; Col. Robert Harlan, of Cincin- nati,and C. L. Maxwell, of Xenia. There seems to be considerable feeling in favor of the nomination of a colored man, Gen. Grosvoner said last night: *I would like to see a colored man go as a delegate-at-large, and if they agree on a delegate he can be elected.” Gen Grosvoner expressed himself as favor- able to the election of Col. Parsons, The delegation will go to Chicago unin- structed and will probably stand two for Blaine and two for Sherman. The saddest sight of the convention was witnessed this morning at the Weddell Iouse. Hon. J. H. Warren Koaifer sat apart by himself, sad-eyed and for- lorn. No one took any notice of him, and he was made an object of extreme pity. It is safe to assert that he will not be a delegate-at-large to the Chica- go convention, The Sherman men are rallying their “to settle the tenporary chairman eoumt‘ ional convention. Creverasp, O., April 23.—The Ohio republican convention was called to or- der this afternoon in the Tabernacle by Hon. J. O Converse, chairman of the state central committee. General Chas. H.
