THE STALWARTS CONTROL.
Mooting ofiLo Now Yorlc Repub
lican Committee-- Convention
October 8th ,
National A oc.itcd ! Prcfs.
NKW YOIIK , August III. The
meeting of the republican ntato com
mittee to-day was controlled entirely
by the stalwarts. The committee met
at 12:15 : o'clock , thirty-one mombpri
being present. Gen. Arthur being
ono of the two absentees there was
considerable interest in the rumor
that Arthur was to resign the chair
manship of the conunitteo. It was
said that the resignation was based
upon an undemtandiin , ' reached bo-
twcon the vice president and thu cab
inet that ho had
consented to act as
president during the disability of
General Garficld , at the hitter's re
quest.
Crowds waited about the committee
rooms in the Fifth Avenue hotel , and
filled the lobbies to learn if the rumor
was true. Arthur sent no conimunica
tion of any kind.
Ex-Senator 1'latt , on motion of A.
B. Johnson , of Utica , was called to
the chair. After much discussion
Now York City was situated as the
place for the state convention and
October 5th as the date.
The old rule of apportionment for
election of delegates to the state con
vention continued , giving every as
sembly district ono and an additional
delegate for every 1,500 or fraction ot
1,500 larger than one-half that num
ber , according to the votes polled nt
the last election. This increases the
total delegates from 45-1 to 405 and in
The committco adjourned at 1:30 : ,
leaving the selection of a hull for tlio
convention to the committco which is
to meet at 0 a. m. , October 5.
The stalwarts named Now York as
the place for tlio state convention and
the half-breeds named * Utica. The [
vote on the question stood : Utica 11 ,
Now York 10. Now York was an
nounced as tlio placo. The old rules
of 18G8 were continued. This rule
will increase the total number of del-
egates from 454 to 495 and increase
tlio New York representation from 55
to 70 , the city gaining 24 delegates or
more than half the total.
moiE
Every ono of the , .pi ltf citj'j'7J1-
ben ot the state committee are stal-
warts. As the party machinery in the
city is in tlio hands of the stalwarts
they ; expect to send a joint delegation
to the convention and ' that thoir'cnor-
mous city delegation will servo as a
nucleus nnd have n great oft'ect in at
tracting country delegates , so that
they can 'control the convention. "
Tlio stalwarts wore astonished that
they polled but sixteen votes , In the
is
committee to-day , as on Friday last ,
they had reason to believe that they
were sure of twonty-f.ovcn of the
thirty-three. The falling elF is attrib
uted by the half-breeds to good news
from Washington.
