Attempts voro t made to turn the delegation over bodily to WLoedon , but fourteen of them went to Lindsay , and he triumphed. Lindsay Is a colored man , aini a power In local politics. His election Is the result of a combination mode wIth the Kennard element , The convention reassembled at 3 o'clock and Immediately fell into another jangle over the resolutions which wore read by G.

The most that could ba licltetl was time statement that some of Webster's friends had persistently antago- nlzoil them and uliless thi.q antagonism was Witinlran they knew dt no rcason why they should allow Webster to trade ther votes for laugherty. While the fact that this caucus had been iiell was undorstcod to be a secret , it has leaked out , and the fact that a bait is threatened Ls generally known by tlmo pohiti- clans. Mr. Wcb3ter's supporters assert that time action of time caucus was altogether un- warrantej , and that the dissenting delegates will discover that they have undertaken a heavier contract than they thlnk.

Twenty-two democratic empioycs are doomed. As it is well understood , the present organzation ! of the senate is unusual , The republicans have forty-four aenators , time democrats thirty- nine and time Popuitsts six ; no imarty being in the majority. All effort on the part of the republicans to secure a complete reorganization - zation having faIled , an agreement has been reached for a proportionate division of the patronage. The democrats have reluctantly consented to this agreement as time only way in which the problem could be solved without forcing either of time old parties into an alliance with the popuiists. wiilcim bath were anxious to ayoid , 'rime limit to timis class of patrongo % vns fixed at 1,440 a year , and for some days there has boon a great weeding out process , that is yet all on paper , hence time unoasineis ( list exi&s on all sides , Thmera are about twenty-two cimanges to be made- twenty-two deimiocratic emmiploycs to imo dls- missed , to make room for as many repub- ilcans. This done , time list of simbordinatea falling under timis designation of "personal patronage" will be balanced , with 41.89 ot it republican , 38.89 democratic , and 0.89 pop. uiiat , It hue required some close figurIng and caictmlatlng io reach timia result , anti coimsid. erable diplomacy imas been broulimt into play. The republican manager of the change has been Senator Itikins , while Colonel Bright , the cergeamlt-at.arnms , and General Cox , the secroiry of the senate , have been in charge of the details for the democrats , imsIorsvIlieeil for I'rt'slslemt , IIROCKTON , Mass. , April 2.-At the re- pubhican convention for tim Twelfth Mason- chusottm congressionai district today District Attorney It , 0 , Harris of Ilast ilrimigowater and Frederi lc S. flail of Taunton wore elected to ( lie national convention.

The only man menily opposed to it was yourieif. When you stepped mIHImIC it was unanimous. 4. The cheering showed time convention vam , for Reed ? Not a hit of it. When Reed's name was mentioned , hits friends cheered , but the grandest demonmtratiomm of approval for a. candidto in a New Ilammup- ithime cOnvention for tyemmty yeams was whemi I read time resolution endorsing MeKimmicy Os "a ptmre anti abe statesnian , " anti time equal of Reed in our favor. 5. The 'mnongrel iatfmrm nnd the clelegn. ti3n are ludicrously incongruous ? " Not at nil. They correrponded to a nicety. They are both for Reed anti McKinley ; for rIced until his chances disappear : for McKinley ever after. It was n McKinley convention. Yotm hoimti : be thankfmmi that it was ratIo- fled with smashing time anti-McKinley coin- btnation , The patform is more expressive of theeal aentiment of New hampshire republicans than any other that has bmmemi written for years. It is your piatform , because - cause you assented to It. It is the p1st- form of the party In this etate , because it voIces t"o feelings of nearly every rcpu- ) lican , They do not much expect to see i'teed nominated.
