? latt wont to'Nbw York 'on the af-
.ernpon tr.iin. The assemblymen are
oaring the city at"such a. rapid rat *
hat it is probable the vote t'j morrow
will bo reduced to Iho lowest figure
rot attained. Thoanxicly to adjourn
s increasing. In the balloting to
day , Brooks plainly said that tlio
democratic policy was to secure nn
adjournment-as soon as possible. Ho
said the balloting has showfi conclu
sively that an election at present is
Impassible nnd the contcsl could ' nol
DO settled except by an appeal to the
pooplo. < Brooks' position on this
jueation received no opposition from
any but the "half broods , " and was ;
indirectly approved. by , - Draper , the
Albany stalwarts. The f'hnlf broods'
all opposed any attempt > at adjourn
ment and said the election must be
if the session should bo prolonged
until the und of thu year. It may bo
accepted as a settled fact that the
stalwarts and Democrats have agreed
together to fight for an adjournment
and secure it as soon O3nossiblobyaiiy
means in their power. The luill-
breeds have resolved to fight tlic ad
journment-programme andi have de a
termined to pass , if possible , the con
current resolution and put an imme
diate end to all legislation this season
nnd confine business altogether to that
of electing the senators. Evidently
web a resolution would pass. If it
should , then , its iirst effect would bo .
to lesson the atlcndancu of democratic
members. They would consider them
selves absolved from duty attending
thu session by an act ending .
legislation. Those democrats
who have openly agreed
ill along that the question of electing <
senators noror did ndong to the pres
ent iogislatuYo , and 'assorted their
willingness to get rid of the questions
in any way possible. II is known
thai they have sympathized with half
breeds and considered thorn entitled
to senators if the above resolutions
should pass.
These democrats , would go homo
ind let thu fight take care of itself.
Their absence would just about re
duce the total vote to that figure ,
making the half broods strength
to eloqt. It is now possible
that the presentation-of- IJradloy
investigating committee wijljbo made is
anoccasion to bring1 about an attempt
to break the dead lock. The indica
tions now- are that three Republicans
will bo made first , for tlio stalwarts on
tlio committee will present a majority
report , which will bo long and care
fully prepared and will take the ground
that Bradley's charge has been sus
tained. It will go further and dwell
upon the general state of corruption or
nllogod to have boon shown as exist
ing in'tho present' contest , It will
sliow that the corruption boa boon all
OK ono aide. by
Chairman Scott told an agent of the
national associated an
press to-nighl
that the report would nol
ho made for several , is
days ; probably nol
until the end , or probably the begin
ning of the week after. Skinner will
make a minority report , showing thai be
investigation had A.
proven nothing bul
Suuion'a innocence of Bradloy's
charge , and the non-existence of cor
ruption in the legislature.
Brooks and Stanley will make an
other minority report , nnd this will bo or
indirect , and will take grounds Urn or

tained. Brooks reports certain Bug
gestions in view of the gravity of the
