He referred to the discomforts experienced In Kansas City and said no convention will probably be so largely attended as the next Demo- cratic convention, The signs of the times indicate victory. The question of political advantages should be consdered. He spoke of the large number of hotels in New York and said the rates would not be raised. He claimed that New York was a summer city; that people there wore light overcoats in summer. He referred to the attrac- tions for visitors which New. York offered, and especially the subway, the — new Williamsburg bridge, Coney Island and other places.
