Guden Affair Is Regarded as a Black Eye to the Party and Second Place Goes Elsewhere. Senator Platt admitted to The Evening World to-day that after many conferences with Gov, Odell he had chosen the slate that is to go through the Republican State Con- vention. Here is the slate. For Governor—D. 1. ODELL, jr, of Orange. For Lientenant-Governor—GEORGE R. SHELDON, of New York. For Secretary of Stnte—JOHN B. M'DONOUGH, of Albany, For Comptroller—HENRY L, MIL- LER, of Cortland, For State Treasurer—JOHN WICKSSER, of Buffalo. For State Engineer and Surveyor— FE, A. BOND, of Jefferson. For Attorney-General—lENRY B. COMAN, of Yates, or FRANK H. ROBINSON, of Steuben, For Judge of the Court of Ap- peals—WILLIAM E. WERNER, of Monroe. It is not likely that there will be any changes. Friends of Sheriff Norman Dike, of Brooklyn, are pushing his name for the nomination for Lleutenaet-Gov- ernor, on the ground that inasmuch as Gov. Odell is to be renominated and (Qleut.-Gov. Woodruft {s not, the sec- ‘ond place on the ticket should by right | go to a Kings County man, Guden Affair a Dluck Eye. This argument does not carry much Welght with Senator Platt or Gov. Odell. ‘They consider that the Kings County machine has caused the Republican party enough trouble over the Guden affair to relegate that section to the rear for some time to come. Mr. Sheldon is Treasurer of the New York County Republican Committee, and Is very close to Senator Platt and ‘the Governor. He has never held pub- Ue office and has not consented to have ‘his name used In the convention, but no diMculty 1s anticipated on that score. Only his large business interests stand fn the way of his candidacy. Gov. Odell was expected in New York ‘to-day to settle the question as to who shall act as temporary chairman of the Convention, But the Governor is tired after a week of travelling and speech- making. He wired Senator Platt this morning that he was going to Lake Mohonk to rest over Sunday and would G. Quigg May Be Chairman, Lemuel E. Quigg is the choice of Sen- ator Platt and Gov. Odell for temporary chairman. of the convention. Many sin- cere enemles of Mr. Quigg are fighting him. Timothy L. Woodruff would lke to have the honor that appears to be destined for Mr. Quigg, but the Guden matter stands !n the way. At a_ consultation between @enator Platt, Gov. Ode!l and Chairman Dunn, to be held Monday, It ts expected that | the platform will be-outlined, and the problem of how far to go on the trust question and tndorsement of the ad- ministration of President Roosevelt will de decided. Shrewd politicians agree that the President's ambition to have the convention pledge the de! 1904 for his self will fal rs not popular with many of the men who guide the Republican party of the State | of New York. AMPLE EVIDENCE OF PETTY “GRAFT,” Supt. Weeks Finds Many Public Bath Attend- ants Exacted Pay from Bathers. Continuing his investigation of the condition of affairs existing at the Riv- Ingtoon street bath$ previous to Aug. 1, \902, Supt. Weeks has made a report to President Cantor, stating that he has found ample evidence of money having been paid to the attendants for the privi- lege of bathing.

CARROLL THE COMING MAN Ever Since Return of John Fox from Visit to Croker Warring Factions Have Been Getting Together. A remarkable change has come over the complexion of affairs in Tammany Hall within.a few days. Ever since the return of John Fox from a visit to Richard Croker there has been a burying of hatchets. Warring factions are getting to- gether to fight what is considered by them a menace to Tammany success —Devery and Deveryism. Soon after the return of Mr. Fox announcement was made from authoritative sources that Richard Croker never would return to New York. This was followed by visits from several adherents of Richard Croker to John F. Carroll. ' Then Thomas Gilleran, who has been fighting Carroll for the Tam- many leadership of the Twenty-ninth Assembly Dictrict, withdrew, and at the present time everything appears to be coming Garroll’s way. Afraid of Devery. Devery has scared the Tammany lead- ers, They have decided that if he suc- ceeds in winning the leadership of the Ninth his magnificent egotiem tempt him to strive for the leaders! of Tammany Hall, to the detriment of Tammany Hall and everybody connect~ ed with it, Political rumor has it that John F. Carroll has had assurances from Croker that if he can stop the course of Dev- ery opposition to him from the Croker forces wili be withdrawn. At least two men very close to Croker have called upon Carroll within a week and talked with him long and earnestly, and it Is said‘ that the three Sullivans—"Big ‘Tim, “Little Lim" and “Florrie'—were called to Tammany Hall yesterday and asked by ‘Sport’ Murphy to throw their influence in the Ninth against Devery. The same rumor has it that they refused. Republicans in the Ninth are working tooth and nail for Devery. They want him to get ‘into Tammany Hall os a leader, believing that this will hurt the Btate Democratic tieket. The State Re- publican Committee and the County Committee are spending money in the Ninth to secure the triumph of Devery and the leaders of Tammany know it, May Succeed Croker. Ever alert to grasp an opportunity John F. Carroll has not overlooked this one. Two weeks ago friends of Croker In Tammany were saying that Carroll would be beaten in his own district. Now they are saying that he will win, If he does win it would not surprise those in the know to see him go after the leadership of Tammany Hall and get it. An Evening World reporter saw Mr. Carroll this afternoon in his Fourteenth street bank. It was suggested to him that everything looked favorable for his promotion to the Tammany leadership. am out for the leadership of the Twenty-ninth Assembly District," he sald, “and 1 am going to win,” “Ii is said that Join Fox brought an olive branch to you from Richard Croker,” sald the reporter, “Have a cigar,” replied Mr. with a satisfed smile, ‘There are busy doings In Tammany Hall.

For the firet time since the beginning of the | manoeuvres the war balloon was heard from, but before It could dem- onstrate Its usefulness peace was de- clared. The peace was reached to-day be- cause of the expiration of the time limit. No unusual formalities had to be observed between the contending forces. When the watches and clocks in the warships and forts struck 12 to-day the fighting was over, and from now on the army and navy officers will devote their attention to society and to cleaning up. Newpor: will probably miss the war game more than any other place. For the last month the gold-bedecked army and navy officers have been central fig- ures in the social life. The war game. so the general officers claim, has proven both instructive and inspiring. It has demonstrated the abil- {tles of each branch of the service, and because of the excellent training of the men it will likely be repeated each year.
