Conk ling left for 2few York last night on the 8 o'clock boat HB . .went alone , and said he went according to an ar rangement made when he was in New York last week to ba present at to morrow's adjourned hearing in the attorney-general's suits against the Manhattan elevated railroad case. DLSCCSSUiO THE SITUATION. After the assembly took a recess the stalwarts spent the entire after noon in discussing the situation and reporting theron to Conkling. He was- satisfied the joint conference , would adjourn to-day till Tuesday , and his followers would stand unite ! during the interval ; and said that in looking over the entire situation , he saw nothing that would render it nec essary for him to stay in Albany dur ing the recess , especially when it was important he should keep his New York engagement , and therefore would go and return on Tuesday. Conkling went alone ; said he needed rest and quiet , and on that account would take the boat. AX INTERVIEW WITH COXKLIXR. The Baily Press and Knickerbocker will this morning give the following interview with Conkling : Conkling a reported to have said to a friend Tom Erie county before leaving for Sew York that he did not care to go back to Washington unless Platt ac companied him. He did not expect o make any tradewith the democrats , which could or would benefit either limseif or Platt , as the democrats were Jiow tied up by the action of the oint caucus. HIS DISAPPOINTMENT. He attributes his disappointment lerein greatly to Senators Woodin , sessions , Pitts , Wagner and McCar- .hy.through whose advice the senate was hastily adjourned on Monday evening , May 2Gth , thus preventing .he announcement of the resignations jeing made before Tuesday , and the subsequent action of these gentlemen and their friends throughout the state n working up a feeling against Mr. Platt aad myself. 3fOSX 4j& ( F-BBEEDS THAN THOROUOH- iAJSSV - . BREDS. - - JfM . . In reply to a question about the lumber of members who voted for limseif and Platt , he saiil : "lam assured by the votes cast on Tuesday and Wednesday that there are far more "half-breeds" in the legislature than thoroughbreds. " He "was asked if he expected the irescnt contest would be a long one , and in response said : "The best an swer I can give you is to quote a para graph from an old speech of mine , viz : < The shallows murmur , while the deeps are dumb ! ' I am dumb on that question , for under the revised edi tion we are told , 'No man knowetli rfiat a day may bring forth. ' We are , lowever , hopeful of final success. " - SO OBJECTION TO ADJOURNMENT. "When asked relative to an adjourn ment over for a few days he said : "I see no objection to such a course. People were anxious to talk faankly with their representatives , and he felt assured that after they had discussed ; he matter with them , many repre- resentatives would come back here with different views from those they now hold. The storm has been a ierce one , but the clouds have passed over. Neither , Mr. Platt nor myself lave been stranded through the gale .hat did blow and tear in litters some of the earlier , arranged programmes : or re-election. However , the worst of the storm is now over , and he ex pected the political barometer would lereafter go steadily upward for both us associate ex-senator and himself. * WILL VTORK MISCHIEF IK TUB PARTY. The administration senators do fav or agreeinu to the resolution _ for an adjournment over until Tuesday next , saying that Conkling's friends have a motive in it ; which will work mis.- chief to the republcan party. The theory is advanced , that if such a re cess is taken , on his return here next Tuesday , neither Conkling or Platt will come back , but will send letters declining to permit the use of their names as candidates for the United States senate. The standard bearers of administration men may choose whom they pleasethoy ; say that-Coiik- Ling and Platt will give their { atten tion to the campaign in this state icxt fall mcL they hope to seen to both branches of the legislature a lar ger delegation of representatives true to their interests than they have now here. NO CHANCE OF ELECTION. They see no chance of election at the hands of the present legislature , and argue tliat they will be no worse off than now , if it is found that after next fall's election that their supporters ters are numerous enough to warrant a renewal of the struggle. They will 50 to Washington on the reassembling of the United States senate next fall , and urge before their friends in that body , the illegality of election of two senators from this state , because of the adjourpment over for two consec utive working days. This is said to be the latest programme of Conkling's friends , and it is verified in part by the action of Speaker Sharp , in en deavoring to secure adjournment to day. THEIR CHANCES NO BETTER. fihould the United States senate re fuse to receive the two senators from here , and that body may , as it is now democratic , then Conkling and Platt's chances of re-election will be no worse than they are at this moment. "HALT-BREEDS" BOLD a. CAUCUS. The "half-breeds" held an impor tant caucus to-night. It was held in the dancing room on the third floor in the " 1880" club rooms , in North Pearl street NEW TORE HERALD REPORTERS OUSTED. Besperate eBorts were'made "by the Herald reporters to ascertain the nature of the proceedings. They pro cured a long ladder and climbed up the alley side of the building into a vacant room adjoining the dancing room , then put screws into " the key hole , so if discovered the""half - breeds" could net get in. They then began to bore holes through a par tition to see through. The noise at tracted the attention of the. "half- breeds , " who broke down the door and kicked the Herald reporters down stairs and put on a guard , and then went * n with the conference and dis cussed the advisability of concentra ting to-day on Cornell and Bepew , BUT UNLESS AN EMERGENCY ARISES It was decided not to do so. Then theywould procure a recess and hold a caucus and adopt a policy. In the meantime they would keep up a scat tering vote against Conkling and Platt , but would somewhat increase for Cor nell and Bepew. Caution was advised against concentrating too.rapidly on Cornell and Bepew , as everything should be done to secure the appear ance of having a candidate out of the situation. Buring the conference the "half-breed" leaders assured their fol lowers that whenever the time for concentration came they were abso lutely SECURE OF SIXTY-FIVE VOTES out of the seventy now against Conk ling and Platt , as the sixty-five would be'-a growth from "forty , and asjths stalwarts -present list * of thirtytfonr was a decline from the boasted fifty- seven , and as the combined sixty-five would also represent a combination of the national administration , state ad ministration and New York custom house against the two senators , with nothing behind them , as a slim chance of obtaining anything. The very strength of the administration side would naturally draw from the stal warts enough votes to elect ANOTHER IMPORTANT QCfSHOJfT" Another question of great impor tance was discussed concerning what action should be taken 1 > y the > 'half- breed " in the senate on the , Question of .adjourning from to-day until Tues day. The house yesterday by a vote of Gl to 55 agreed to the adjournment Sharp , the stalwart leader in the house , used every effort to secure { he resolu- tion. The democrats and tha stal warts voted for it. The whola tiling was pointed to as suspicious. It was considered an attempt to bECUUE AN EARLY ADJOURNMENT , as it is claimed that the law directs , a ballot shall be taken on every legal day , and an adjournment would skip' over Saturday ahd Monday. It was intimated the stalwarts meant to se cure' an adjournment , and then raise : he objection against the legalfty of ; he subsequent following on the grounds that adjournment had been' illegal and that it vitiated any subse quent election. It was further alleg- > d that the stalwarts want to use the egal objection to the extent of carry ing the matter to congress , to have the senators who might be elected after adjournment , and even to use the su- ireuie court.
