DSCHAKOED.V , The situation in the senatoijial con test remains the saino as in ycstor- day'a dispatches. The stalwarts have made no gains and cnfiercd jio losses. Conlding's strength rcmains xed , but Platt ia losing ground and is appar ently stepf irig out of the race. The half-brccos" are as strong as ever , maintaining the scattering votes , -ft ith a tendency to gradually solidify. 'An analysis of the vote of yesterday sho\ra no change in the strength ot , cither the democratic , "half-breed" or stal wart vote , each polling the full vote of their assemblymen present. At a joint conference every republican vote not cast for Coukling may bo seb down as a "half-breed. " 33io "half-breed" instruction was to remain scattered until a .favorable opportunity arose for their uniting , when a recess would be voted and a caucus held to instruct. The tendejicy among many "half- breeds" ia towards either Rogers or VTheclor * ? or jConkling's ' 'placo , and towards xsither Cornell or Depow for Platt's place. A inajority of tllo "half-ljreeds" wish Cornell for Platt's term nd Depew for Cpnkling's , and a cpiiiblliation for that1 outcome , in structions have been' given to enter Depew' gradually to'avoid the appear ance of having liis candidacy an under stood thing. , Jt ia considered better policy to havb him appear aa a grow ing candidate. - * * i .

Chicago Times Special. A STRONG CONTRAST. ALBANY , N. Y. , May 30. The ad ministration tonference , which was held in a dowji-town office , was in dramatic contrast to the nfiair or ganized as a Conkling caucus. Fifty- seven members answered to a call of the roll , and pledges were made foi tw elve more who were vouched for as firm friends of Garfield and uncom promising opponents to the Conkling- Platt dynasty. The proceedings were , characterized by genuine good feeling , and speeches were made by several of the half- breed orators. Now that their actual strength had been demonstrated , there was a disposition on the part of several over-sanguine persons to bewail the adoption of pledges which kept there out of a caucus ; but the cooler head ; insisted upon adhering to a progra mme which was agreed upon when the cam paign. was young. To use the Ian guago of an able statesman : ' 'The } propose to tail the old djg before get ting a new one. - SESSIONS' "You may say in The Times , ?

Yet may say further that they can nomori hold those thirty-eight any length o time than you can hold a wild bull bj the tail. This is as true as holy writ' It was stated at th.e conference ) tha petitions having more than sixty thous and names had been forwarded to the legislature calling on members to stand I y the administration. Petitions are st-.ckcdupby the barrel in the assem bly chamber , but Speaker Sharpe has not called for petitions for two weeks.
