It was announced early this morn- ing that Miss Mary Garrett Hay, City Chairman of the Woman's 8uf- frage Party in New York, had been selected as Chairman of the Commit- tee on Resolutions. One of the fanec- tions of this committee, by far the most important of the unofficial con- vention, is to draw the party platform. It was sald here to-day that the appointment of Mias Hay was forced upon Gov, Whitman through fear of what Democrats aight do. Whitman heard the Democrats intended to run e Treasurer.
