Ho donies that ho wis bribed to vote for Schroodor, TALLMADOE IN THE FIELD.

It was stated to day that, in view of tho bribery in the Eleventh District Republican Convention, that tho Hon. D. W. Tallmadgo would run as an Independent candidate. The charges of bribery against Waring, tha nominee, aro clear and explicit.

Fire Commlssionor Brennan said to day that one of the Twenty first Ward delegates named Thomas admitted that ho had received $20 from Waring for his vote. Mr. Howo, who refused bribe of $40 to vote for Waring, has mode the following affidavit: AFFIDAVIT OF W. H. HOWE.

County of Kings, sr. William H. Howo, being duly sworn, says that ho resided at No. 1,483 Borgon Btroot, In the City of Brooklyn. That at the primary election of the Republican Association of the Twenty fourth Ward of said city, recently held therein, deponent was elected a delogate to the Eleventh District Republican Assembly Convention of Kings County, appointed to bo held in said District October 21, 1879.

That just before eight o'olock of the evening of date, and a few minutes beforo the said convention was to convene, and on the sidewalk corner of Putnam and Classon avenues, near the building where tho said convention was to be held, this deponent was approached by one Alexander Ray, a resident of tbo Twonty fourth Ward, and waB solicited by said Ray to vote In the said convention for one William H.

Ho will probably bo indorsed by the Democrats. Ex Mayor John W. Hunter said to day that If no other Democrat was nominated ho would run for Senator as a Democratic candidate in tho Third District. FINE ARTS. At Skerk's Gallery.

This well known gallery has recently been enriched by several fresh canvases from tho studios of leading artists. Among tho mora important of these pictures Is a large work by J. CARLTON WIGOINS. It Is one cf his latest pictures, and full of qualities that stamp it as one of his most successful efforts. In tho foreground are grouped three finely painted cows standing anklo deep in stream of water under the branches of an immense oak tree.

At tho left of the group of cattle, a good effect of distance has been obtained, and looking for miles over a flat country wo see through a misty atmosphero a Una of mountains that help tho composition of tho picture very much. At tho right Is a country road leading away under overhanging branches, and finally vanishing in tho thick foliage. They have also recontly received at Shork's an excellent little marine plotura by William M. Brown, representing a long Una of surf breaking upon a beach; very pleasing effect of oolor by Charles H. Miller in a broad harvest eoene on the salt meadows of New Jersey, with a warm Summer sky reflected back from a low marshy piece of land; a Bmall marine very artistically treated by Bristol; large picture by Harvey Young, representing a sceno near Paris, and painted in the later Fronoh Bchool; a now picture by Strafford Now marcho, of a sceno near New Rochelle, full of nature in color, and admirable in composition; a little figure picture, by S.

S. Carr, mods from studies on tho beach at Coney Island, and several other fresh works by both homo and out of town artists. THOMAS JENSEN Just finished an excellent little genre picture that entitles "A Rural Smile." In a city of temperance Brooklyn, of course, the word smile is taken in its literal sense, but in some quarters it has got to mean drink." In Jensen's plotura a little girl stands by a well holding a gloss of water in ono hand and looking pleasantly toward an oldman seated In the shade of an arbor. The picture is perfectly simple and natural in composition, and everything in the scone is so thoroughly imbued with life in the country, that it takes us away from the city at once, and brings us in dlreot sympathy with tha locale of tha subject. The figures in tho work aro very ably treated, both la color and drawing, and one of the happiest points in canvas is the treatment of the light falling through grape vines upon the ground and side of the frame house at the right of the canvas.

A good contrast la brought out between tha cool shadows under tha arbor and tho hot sunlight without, and the work throughout shows careful study united to a true artistic feeling for the beautiful. It will probably find a place in the coming exhibition of the Art Association, along with another genre picture that Mr. Jensen ha3 now undor way. W. HAMILTON GD3SON recently returned from a visit to tha White Mountains, and Is now back in his etudio oorner of Nassau Bookman Btreets, During hiB last trip to the country ho has added largely to his collection of sketches, ho is now buBy at work preparing another illustrated article for Harper's Magazine.

He also hopes to some important water color drawings ready for coming exhibitions, and ho will exhibit two of his works at tho Art Association this year. Ha now stands among the best water color artists in tbo country works from his brush aro eagerly looked for by tho critics ond tho general publio. Among his sketches are plcturesquo bits of woodland scenery, grand old maplo trees that are each pictures In tloi lvns. brluht crassv hillsides with groups or cniidren happily introduced so that tho colors in their drapory aid to the beauty of tho sconos, and a hundrod other toUing offecta only to be discovered by an artist. be It O.

To the Editor of the Brooklyn Eagle: The Democratic City Convention haa decided to place Mayor Howell before the people as the re nomi neo for his present trustworthy position. Familiar with tho requirements of the oDico, well acquainted with its cares and responsibilities, and (, uiuod by tho oxperienco of tho past two years, he la eminently quallfiod to worthily fill tho chair of chief magistrate of Brooklyn dur ing a aeoond term. Hi9 moasuroa have ueen luiemioa, for the city's good. Bis alma have not met popular sympathy, but, as far as realised, are enduring memorials of real bononts. At a time when true Democracy must assert itself in the person of all its supporters, I can but ask that aa cordial assistance be given Mayor Howoll in the canvass by my friends, as I heroby pledge to givo him myself.

No one can serve me better than by being loyal to party and by aiding to roll up an overwhelming majority for Mayor Howell and the whole Democratic tlokot on the 1th of November. Ecspeotfully yours, Robert Blade, WEATHER REPORT. PnOBABILITIEfl. Washinoton, D. October 23.

A "RUN IN." Tho Schrocder and Goodrich Men In, dulfflngr in Fisticuff Irlike Dady and Dave Wilson lavo a Bout A flght, which nearly resulted in a riot, oc curred, last night, between tho sappOrtors of Mr. Good. rioh and tho partisans of Mr. Sohroedor.

About 9 o'clock "Mike" Dady, Superintendent of Sewors, a warm supporter of Schroodor, with B. B. Sodgwiok, Barney Mulholland and others, who favor tho election of tho ex Mayor to tho Sanatorshlp, met in White's saloon, on tho corner of Myrtle avenue and Fulton stroet, a group of Goodrich men, among whom wero David Wilson, James Fay and Thomas I. Hughes. Thore is a feud of long standing between Wilson and Dady, and when they mot they glared at each othor liko a pair of tigers.

Dady began the fuss by offering to bet $700 to 41,000 that If Goodrich ran Schroedor would carry the Twentieth Ward. Fav euffo nflrjvl Twentieth Warder was best qualified to speak for tho ward. Then old quarrels wero reopened, and the "Nod" Web3ter flght was brought up. Finally, Wilson and Dady CAME TO BLOWS, and began to pummel each othor unmercifully. Fay and others endeavored to part the mon, but it was nse less for some timo.

Mulholland, who is a redhot supporter of Schroodor, joined in tho scuffle, and dealt Wilson two or threo heavy blows in the face, cutting him badly. It looked for a moment as if tho flght would become gonoral. Dady sprang for tho water pitcher, and would havo broken it ovor Wilson's head had it not been taken from him by tho bartender. The combatants wero finally separated. Both wore bruised, and blood streamed from tho face of Wilson, who was badly cut.

Both mon doclared that they would havo revenge. Wilson and his friends finally wont uptown, whero they were followed by Dady and some of his friends. Thoy met onco more on the Hill, and were only prevented from piimmollng each othor by the interference of bystanders. The encounter was tho subject of much discussion among the politicians to day. THE BRIDGE.

The WorIC on the Suspenders Progress. in Work was begun on tho Bridge suspenders on Tuosday last under tho direction of tho master mechanic, E. F. Farrington. It is both a difficult and hazardous undertaking, and roqulroa the oxorclso of tho greatest care In porfoctlng the work.

Tho suspenders that are now being hung measure between 130 and 140 feet. Theso are being placed near tho tower, but as they aro hung furthor down toward tho anchorage thoy will decrease In length. Tho suspenders aro cable laid and aro hung by means of a stnglo gantllng, operated by an engine in tho yard below. Tha men employed on this dangerous work are known as tho riggers, and number about sixteen, under Fireman Heighluian. Tho suspenders are colled on tho roadway of the tower, and to the end of each Is fastened a socket.

When a suspender has been uncoiled it Is attached to the gantllng, which 1b reined through two bolts, and then hoisted to tho cablo whore four or five WORKMEN STATIONED IN BUGGIES receive it. At intervals of about ten feet apart iron bands ore riveted to tho cablo, oach band being provided with a large bolt. When tho susponder is raised the bolt is withdrawn from the band, tho socket of tho suspender. Inserted, and the suspender then riveted to the cable with the bolt. The first section only of tho suspenders ore now bolng hung.

Tho section extends about 80 feet out from the tower. The workmen finish one cable a day. For work of this character, this is considered very rapid progress. When the first section of suspenders on either side of both towers 1b completed, the work on them will rest awhile, until tho corresponding eecttons of tho the Bridge roadway havo been completed, tho first section of which it is only proposed to build this Winter. BAPTIST ASSOCIATION.

The Marcy Avenue Church Admitted Without Opposition. The final business session of the Long Island Baptist Association yosterday afternoon was devotod mainly to the reading of reports from committees. Among tho most important of these by anticipation was the report on application of new churches for admission to the association. Tho church was well filled, many having attended in expectation evidently of a Bplrited discussion, at least on the application of tho Marcy avenue Church. This society, as is well known, has beon outside tho fold, in a sonso, because of ItB open com muulon proclivities.

Tho only approach to the antici pated or possible wranglo was an unimportant excep tion to a single word in the phraseology of tho applica tion. This was satisfactorily explained, and tho process of admission was spoodily and in duo form completed, THE PROCEEDINGS were conducted by the Rev. A. B. Capwell In tho absence of tho Moderator, ltev, Way land Hoyt, Under the call for roports the Rev.

Daniel Read, on behalf of the Committee on Applications of Now Churches, submitted letters from the societies of the Port Jofferson, Calvary (colored) and Marcy avenue ohurchee. Tho only exception mado was by Dr. Fulton, who questioned the use of the word "precedent" in the Marcy avenue letter of application for tho word "prerequisite" express the same meaning. Dr. Read said the matter had been explained to the satisfaction of the committee, and there was no cloubt the word in question was meant lu tho same sonso as tho one Dr.

Fulton would have substituted. The letter was allowod to remain lutact as presented. Dr. Head, on behalf of the association, oxtended tho right hand of fellowship to the new members, rendering tho sceno slightly effective in the case of the Marcy avcuue Church by a special reference. Turning Dr.

Jeffery about faco to face with tho audionce, Dr. Read said: "Wo will now listen to a few remarks from our brother." With this requost Dr. Jeffery compiled and expressed his gratification at the more than friendly reception extended to himself and church. Other committee reports were submitted and passed upon until all had been disposed of. A female missionary was accorded the last ha' hour of the Bession to describe the foreign mission work, which was most concisely presented by the speaker.

At tho evoning Bession Rev. B. B. Kolsay discoursed upon tho dovclopment of tho Christian life, and at tho conclusion of tho services Moderator Hoyt declared the session adjourned. SALE OF SI ONT AUK.

Ho had heard them having quite a high time at one o'olock in tho morning. A good deal of beer went to the house all along, up to the time of hor death. Dr. Bond thought Father Moguire very attentive, as he waB thore three or four times a day. Mrs.

M. TJIF BETHEL FESTIVAL. The Fall festival of the Sabbath School of the Bothol of Plymouth Church took place last evening. There was a very largo attendance of tho pupils, their parents and friends. Tho great attraction was a performance by Paul Prlmior's Drawing Room Combination, consisting of music, recitations, sketches, etc.

frs. Prlmlor and Mr. and Master Lambert, the latter only 9 years of age, oponed tho entertainment with an ovorture for piano and violins, which was most excol rendered. Mr. Paul Prlmier recited a portion of "Solon Shingle," and Mies Lizzie Lambert (7 years of cge) astonished tho assemblage by her skill as a violinist.

Mr. Prlmier delivered a humorous lecture on the "House that Jack Built," with blackboard Illustrations. A Toutonic sketch by MIbb Lizzie and Master Joe Lambert was very funny and provoked roarB of laughter. A pleasant feature of theovenlug was a collation, served in tho reading room durlu intermission between 8 and 9 o'clock, to I Democrats Arranging Primaries. for Their Some of the Prospective Nominees for Aldermen and Supervisors Contests in Some of the Wards.

Mayor Howell's letter of acceptance will not be out untU to morrow. Tha condition of his Honor's health being suoh aa to prevent him from making a porsonal canvass, ho will set forth In his let. tor at greater length than ha otherwise would, tho Issues of the campaign aa he understands them, and tho platform upon which ha goes before the people as a candidate for a second term. Mr. HoweU is still in receipt of numerous letter! congratulating him upon his renomi nation and assuring him that the self supporting citizens of Brooklyn, irrespective of party, wiU sustain him at the polls.

A number of gentlemen called at his office to day and expressed their great satisfaction at his acceptonoe of the renomlnatlon. Among tha party workers throughout tho city he is muoh stronger than ever before, and the indications on all sides are that he will be re elected by a majority of at least five thousand. It isreaUy surprising to see the wonderful change in sentiment that has taken place among the boys since Saturday last. Then they were, to soma extent, lukewarm in their support; now reports from different wards show that no portion of the ticket excites more enthusiasm than Mayor HowelL In tha Sixteenth Ward tha German Democrats are solid for him, and all over the city there Is a feeUng among Democrats that the prospects of the ticket success of the from top to bottom wore nevor brighter. This feeling of confidence lnBpiros the boys to Inoreased efforts, and the result is that the campaign Is one llveUest that has been witnessed here for years.

A meeting of the Third Senatorial Democratic Con vention is called for to night at 8 o'clock. THE ALDEBMANIO CONTESTS. The Demooratlo primaries for the nomination of can didates for Aldermen and Supervisors, wiU be hold in the various wards this ovenlng for Aldermen in tho evon and for Supervisors in tho odd numbered wards. The vacancy in the First Ward Aldermanship, coused by the resignation of Clarence L. Burnet, will also bo filled at the coming election, so that at the primary in that ward candidates for both offices wiU be voted for, provided the Democrats have a man to present.

Tho ward is bo largely Republican, that it ia posslblo there may do no candidate at the primary. There Is a good deal of talk about Mr. Bipley Ropes as a citizens' candidate, to be Indorsed by tbs Democrats, SECOND WARD. This ward Is now represented by Mr. WUllam Dwyer, who Is candidate for renomlnatlon.

He does not seem to have any opponent on the regular Bide, but will bo opposed at tho poUa by ex Alderman SterUng, tho Flaherty candidate, who win bo Indorsed by the Republicans. Mr. Dwyer has been Alderman several terms. He was elected in 1871, and served until the close of 1875, when having failed to seouro tho nomination ho retired to make way for Sterling, tho roguiar candidate. In 1877, he ran as a stump candi date against Sterling, tha regular nominee, end beat him, and his term closes with the present year.

Alderman Dwyer has been an attentive ond energotic member, and hia voice has always been hoard on the Bide of tho laboring olasses, among whom he is very popular. In 1878 he offered a resolution requesting tho Legislature to pass the Convict Labor bUI, and wont to Albany to personally urge members to vote for tho bill. This has Increased his strength among the working men affected by tho prison contract system. Mr. Dwyer is about 35 years of age, and has llvod ia the Second Ward Bince boyhood.

FOURTH WARD Thore are eoverol gontlomen talked of hare ia connection with the nomination. They are ex Supervisor George Sexton, George Oakley and William Casoy. There Is a great desire to re elect Alderman Black, but that gentleman haa evinced a disposition to retire. Alderman Black is a sterling Demoorat and a gentleman of wide popularity. Hia nomination for Alderman is always equlvolent to an election, Mr.

Oakley was onco a candidate, but was defeated. Mr. Casey is a tea merchant and an old and highly respected resident of the ward, SIXTH WARD. There does not seem to bo any Democratic opposi tion to Alderman James Kane, Ho will be renominated to night. Mr.

Kane has served two terms, and his numerous friends say ho will be returned by a large mar jority. EIGHTH WARD. Aldorman John Mclntyre is a candidate again. He Is an old member of tho Board, and has always been alive to the Interests of the poople of his ward. Patrick McQovern has already been nominated as an independent Democratic candidate, TENTH WARD.

Tho indications aU aro that Mr. John H. O'Rourko, tho well known contractor, wiU be nominated to night. In fact, there will not be any one against him in tho primary. Alderman Gunder la not a candidate.

He has served two terms and says ha Is content to get out. Others say that he was forced out Phil. Casoy, who ran as an Independent two years ago, wUl run again thlB Fall. The regulars havo invited him to enter the primary, but ho has rof used. Of course, he cannot be eleoted if he runs, but his supporters say he can beat the regular candidate, and that is all thoy want, TWELFTH WARD.

Alderman James Donovan will be renominated. Ho is very popular in the ward, and the way he will walk awoyfroni O'Reilly's candidate, whoever that unfortunate individual may be, will be amusing. With Donovan in tha field, O'RelUylsm will have no show in the Twelfth. FOURTEENTH WARD. Alderman Thomas J.

Kenna, the present representa tive, is the regular Democratic candidate for Justico of tho Peace, Fourth District. There are a number of gontlomen anxious to ocoupy his Beat in the oldermanlc chamber ond the primary wiU bo a spirited one. Tho most prominent candidate is Mr. Felix Doyle, who has alwayB lived in tho ward and who is vory popular among tho boys there. It is believed that ho wUl be nominated.

The other candidates aro ex Supervisor John Carroll, P. J. Tully, Adam C. Hill and ex Alderman Clark, but of these Carroll is probably the only one who wiU go in the primary. Thoy wiU all run on election day.

SIXTEENTH WARD. Charles TroeBter, a well known resident, la the most prominent candidate, and the gossips havo it that ho will bo nominated. The ward is Democratic, with first class candidate. It wiU be carried thiB year by the Democrats, as there will be two Republicans In the field. EIGHTEENTH WARD.

The boys are talking of several candidates, mostly of Thomas Brower, Charles G. Tresbmen and M. Pollard, The friends of Thomas Gardiner and William Lyster aro urging thoBe gentleman. The primary promises to a Uvely one. TWENTIETH WARD.

This ward Is bo overwhelmingly Republican that no Democrat cares about running, and therefore there Is now no candidate. The complications arising from tho Republican Senatorial flght, may result In the nomination of a second RepubUoan candidate for Alderman, and in that event, tho Domoorate will have a candidate. may bo romembored that a Democrat, the late Do Witt Boggs, once carried tha ward, wien there were two Republicans running. TWENTT SECOND WARD. Messrs.

A. V. MandovlUe and Joha Kimball have been talked among the Regulars. The so called Jackson Democrats, or tho party that follows tho lead of T. V.

Talmago, formorly a Regular Democrat, and twice elected as such to tho Assembly, but now an Independent and an ally of tho Republicans, havo been speaking II. C. Lonsdale, a real estate ajent. Talmago and friends wiU do their levol best to beat the regular nominee. TWENTY FOURTH WARD.

There appears to bo only two candidates talked of to any groat extent P. Kelly, formerly Dockmaster, and Haulon, tho contractor. It is hirdly probable that Democrats can carry this ward this year unless thore should be a stump Republican canildato in tha Sold. Thore is a report that thore wiU be cne, as tho course of Alderman Dreyor in reBpect to tho lato "deal" in tho Board has been roundly denounced by many Repub Ucons. DEMOCRATIC CANDIDATES FOE BUPERVTSOR3.

In tho First Ward, it is not at improbable that Supervisor Ormsbee wiU have a olear field. The matter nominating a Democrat was postponed last evening, probably indefinitely. J. B. HaU will probably receive th Democratic nomination in tha Third Ward.

He haa ilready represented Tenth Ward In the Board of Supervisors. Supervisor CuUen will be renominated in tho Fifth Ward. T. J. DonnoUy will be his opponent at the primary.

A oommlttoo waited upon Mr. Gorge Malcolm, of tho Seventh Ward, last night, and prevailed upon him to accept tho nomination. It will bj given him to night. Edward C. Murphy and J.

S. WUUamson will look for nomination in tha Ninth Ward, with the chances in favor of Mr. Murphy, Supervisor Hyde, wuosa ranomlaaOou was a foregono conclusion, has withdrawn from tho field, in tho Eleventh Ward, retiring from officio! Ufa with tho esteem of his coUeaguea and tie good will of hia oon stltuents. John DoBoher, Pulaski Wilson and Henry Acker will compete for tho nomination. The Thirteonti Ward, being hopelessly EopubUcan, Democrats wul probably indorse Oeorga W.

Light, Indopondent RopnbUcan candidate. There ore two or threo Demooratlo candidates In the for the nomination In tho Fifteenth Word, with tha chances favoring Mr. Thos. Sheffield, Suporviior Zoble, having decUned to run In tho Seventeenth Ward, John Gules and one or two other candl. dates aro In tho field.

The DemDcratic candidate in tha Nineteenth Ward is an unknown quantity. A committee waa appointed night to choose ono, but the RepubUoan majority is largo onough to dampen whatever enthusiasm might otherwise have existed among the Democrats. Supervisor Anderson ia sura of rcnomination in tho Twenty first Ward. In the Twenty third Ward tha Democrats will probably indorse Mr. Joseph EUery, aa indspendent Republican.

James Fitzgerald will probably bo nominated in tha Twenty fifth Ward. LOCAL BREVITIES.

J), W. Tallmadge In the Field How he was Sold Out in the Eleventh District Con ventlon The Minority Party Thorough ly Demoralized. The struggle in the Third Senatorial Dis tiict engrossed the attention of the politicians to day, It was authoritatively announced that thb Hon.

William W. Goodrioh had decided that he would bo an indepen dent Republican candidate against Mr. Frederick Sohroeder, whom ha acouses of defeating him before the Republican Convention by tho use of money. Sev eral meetings of Mr. Goodrich's supporters were hold last night and this morning, and a unanimous desire was expressed that ha should take tha field against tha man they designate as tho candidate of tho oor ruptionlsts.

To day tho Goodrich workers wero busily engaged in the preparation of affidavits in support of tho chargos of bribery on tho part of tho Schroodor men. They still insist that tho charges against Frod, Kammoror, tho Eleventh Ward delegate, who la accused of selling biB vote, are true and that they can bo sustained by ample evidence. Chargos aro in preparation against other unfaithful delegates. Tho fight Is vory bitter, and it Is expocted that some racy exposures will bo made of tha methods of the Republican managers. GOODRICH URGED TO RUN.

The following petition, urging Mr. Goodrich to be a candidate, was circulated to day, and received many signatures from Republicans Brooklyn, October 23, 1879. To thA TTrm. W. IP.

Goodrich We. tho undersigned citizens of the Third Senatorial District, bellovlug that in common with tho masses of Republican voters in this city, we havo beon deprived of a true representation in our nominating conventions; being convinced that treachery aud fraud secured the aeieat oi an expression oi tue real Bentimont or tuo district toward yoursolf knowing that thousands of our follow citizens fool deeply aggrieved by tha mothods omploycd by designing politicians to atiflo tho voice of tho majority, we are prepared to resent the outrage perpetrated at their expense; last, but most important of all, regarding our rights as citizens superior to personal obligations, wo ask your influence aud cc operatlou in assorting our political manhood. To this end, and in exercise of what we believe to be a conscientious duty, wo respectfully request that you will allow the use of your name as a candidate for tho Senate in the Third District. In view of the candidacy of Mr. Goodrich much inte rest was felt to day as to the course of tho Demooratlo Senatorial Convention and also as to tho position of tho Rev.

J. Hyatt Smith la tho contest. Mr. Smith has written a letter accepting the nomination tendered him by a largo number of bis friendB throughout the city. A rumor was circulated to day that if the Democrats in dorsed Mr.

Goodrich, Mr. Smith would withdraw in favor of Mr. Schroedor. This was denied in behalf of Mr. Goodrich, and It was said that ho would receive tho support of Mr, Smith and his friends.

WHAT MB. GOODRICH SAYS. Mr. Goodrich was at tho City Hall to day. An Eagle reporter Inquired as to his intentions.

He said I notice that Mr. Schroedor in his interview with a reporter yesterday offers to refer the subjeot of bribery in his convention, out conunea ms ouer to 'bribery by He refers to no othor inducement, as of 'plaoe' or 'subsequent Ho offers to refer tho matter to R. D. Benedict. Mr.

Benedlot is one of my warmest friends, and a man of high honor. But It would be unfair to place blrn In any position of this nature, for the reason that, as he himself Informed me in answer to a note from me to him, he had signed a pledgo to abide by the aotisp Of the he jvonlng before Mr. Schroeder's plausible "offer was made. Beside, before such offer was made I am informed that my friequ. uaa already determined to request mo to run as a Republican candidate a matter which I am this morning holding under advisement.

If I take the stump, I shall take it on the ground of preserving tho absolute purity of conventions, which in this district have been tampered with for some years past, and notably in the instance when gentlemen now sustaining Mr. Schrocder, af tor participating in tho proceedings of the Congressional Convention which named Mr. Ostrander tor Congress, and in violation of their action there, went out and sought for the nomination of Mr. Chittenden, who was defeated In the convention, and scoured his indorsement by the Democrats, thus defeating the will of the convention. I am aware that a petition is in circulation pledging as many of my friends as they can securo to abiilo by tho action of tho convention, and whllo there aro many honorable gentle men in the late Senatorial Concentlon with whom I would truBt untold gold, yet there are those In it in whom I have no confidence whatever.

I only know this that what Is known as "Schroeder lomtl in nnlltU aUmtA Ua Ken! to lir a warning should bo given to those who attempt to con trol delegates bv lmnroner means, tnat sucn turners can not be allowed in Republican conventions, and that tho people will condemn them at the ballot box.

Sentenced the The Difficulties Sheriff Riley Met in Pursuing the Fugitive Burglars.

William Porter, alias Morris, was sentenced this morning in the Court of Sessions. At first It waa arranged to sentence him on Monday, but Sheria Riley preferred to get him out of his custody," Whon tho fact that Porter was to be sentenced waa known, the court room was speedily crowded. Judge Mooro and Associate Justices WIckham and Spencer were on tha bench. District Attorney Cntlln and Assistant District Attorney Wernberg wero present. Porter came from the Jail, handcuffed to Keeper Schnltz, and was lodged In the pen.

A orowa of lawyers; and officials pressed into tho court room. Judge Mooro What business havo you, Mr. Dlstriot Attorney 7 General CatUn I move the sentence of William Tor ter, Morris, who was convicted of burglary In May last. Judge Mooro Bring out Porter. Porter came from the pen alongaldo Keeper Schultz.

He was neatly dressed, but looked haggard and nervous. Clerk Yorke What is your noma 1 Prisoner WilUam Porter. Clerk How old aro you 7 Prisoner Thirty two. Clerk Whero were you born Prisoner Massachusetts. Clerk Married or single Prisoner Married.

Thoro was a stir in tha crowd aa Porter was led back to tho pen. Judgo Mooro Officers, let no person Ieavo tho room until the prisoner la well on his way to tho Jail. The officers guarded the doors, and Porter was re movod, ironod, to Keeper Schultz. Five minutes utter tho crowd was allowed to disperse SIierHf Illley's Chiue after Porter aud Irvlnff. "Billy" Porter, the notorious cracksman, ono of the desperate fugitives from Raymond street jail, who waa arrested early yesterday morning by Detective Wade in a New York street car, waa handed ovor promptly to Sheriff Rlloy, by JubOco Duffy, at tho i ssox Markot Police Court.

Porter reallzod the Jig was up," and was greatly crestfallen at tho prospect be fore him. His past conduct convinced him that he might look for no further favors at tha hands of tho Kings County authorities. Sheriff Riloy wos natursllv much pleased to hove this dangerous criminal onco more in hia grasp, and had tho satisfaction of escorting tho rascal to his old quarters in the jail. Porter was shackled to Officer Thomas Shandley, attached to Police Headquarters; and Sheriff Rlloy, with a seven chambered revolver in his pocket, followed cloae behind them on the way to this city. Threo ruffianly looking characters approached Shandloy and his prisoner in Wll loughby street, but on seeing the Sheriff thoy moved away rapidly.

Porter is considerably changed Binca ho skipped away from flvo months ago. His long wanderingB and anxiety to koen out of tho reach nf hin sieopioss pursuers havo had their offect in reducing his ncigui, unu no presonta a cadaverous appearanco Ho waa placed in ccU No. 10, on the mlddlo tier, and by tho oruorsoi tno bneriu all intercourse with him from outsiders was Btrlctly prohibited. Fridoy, tho Shoriff will navo A SERIOUS TALK WITH POETEH In reference to some matters connected with his escape trom too jail ana nis wanderings since thon, and aomo Important developments may bo expocted. Last ovon lng Mrs.

Porter called at tho Jail, and requested to bo allowed to see hor husband, but the orders of tho Sheriff were carriod out, and hor request was not granted, This morning she was again at the Jail, but was not admitted to tho corridor. Porter will ba arraigned for eontonco before Judgo Mooro, In tho Court of Sessions, on aacuruay, ana will doubtless got the full ponilty. It is behoved that for tho past threo or four months Porter and Irving havo boon ongagod In sevorol big robberies In Philadelphia, Boston and othor cities. A gentleman oalled on Sheriff Riloy this morning and told him that ho thought tho gold watoh found on Porter at the timo of his arrest were a portion of tho $40,000 worth of plunder carried off from a pawnbroker's establishment in Philadelphia, a few days ago. Tho Now York police authorities aro working up this due, and the prospect la that when Porter serves out hiB term at Crow Hill, he will have to answor for other offenses.

Of tho two fugitives Sheriff Riley would prefer to have Porter In his custody, but tha pursuit of Irving will not bo relaxed for a moment, and his oaptura la only a matter of timo. Tho machinery whloh Sheriff Itiloy has put in operation is so perfect that Irving cannot find a seouro placo to conceal himself In for many hours ot a timo. About a month ago, tho Shoriff tracked Porter to Philadelphia, and stationed ono of hia faithful officers in a house opposite a resort for thioves, where it was expected that Porter would call. Unfortunately, a man who had beon discharged from Raymond streot jail a few months ago, bappenod to soo the Shoriff in Philadelphia, and divining his ob ject, promptly notified Porter, who rapidly skipped oway rrom tho city. Tho Shoriff subsequently met tho exprison bird and soundly denounced him, and at the samo timo handod tho Philadelphia police a portrait of his from the Rogues' Gallery, at headquarters, for fu ture roforenco.

Tho Shoriff will not rest until he has Porter's pal in custody. ALREADY IN THE PENITENTIARY.

Mr. Burke believed in sustaining the ticket. Evory workiugman ought to support It. Mr. Carroll especially was a candidate who appeals strongly to tho sympathy of tho working classes.

Ho baa been a truo friend and a faithful worker for the masses of the people, and will prove himself bo to a greater degree if elected to tho office to which he Is aspiring. Tho only position ho over hold was ono of honor, not of emolument, air. Elliott would alBO provo a faithful public Borvant and as for Mr. James Hyan, of Flatbusb, tbo candidate for Commlssionor of Charities, ho Is a sterling Democrat, and has shown his strength already.

Mr. Kolly (tho chairman) Btated that tho League intended to work lu tho interests of labor. There had beon somo tricksters in It, who Bold their principles for money, or a petty position, but these men bad happily beon got rid of. Now tho Leaguo had no member who would be wlldng to sacrifice his manhood for political patronage. Mr.

Dennehy, of the Plfth Ward, denounced Mr. John D. Carroll (not Colonel Thomas Carroll) and John W. Tynan, nominated by a so called labor party, aB political tricksters of tho worst kind. Mr.

In Brooklyn property, which undoubtedly wlil give employment to our mochanlcs and laborers, and in tho end assist all branches of trade. His messago to tho Common Council suggesting Bomo action by thst body regarding tho rights of public rartmon doing business in Now York, and his promptness In favoring tho enactment of a law giing that branch of industry tho Bamo rights in all parts of the State, is fiunicioiit evidence that he is the trm; friend of the working classes. His bravo and truthful declaration that tho payrolls of the City Works Department were stiUK with sinecures, to whom tho money appru priated for tho repairs of our streets and sewers wero lavishly given, thus depriving tliu Imiia ide workiugman of employment and our citizens of his labor proves leyond doubt that he lias no fears of tho corrupt politician and less regard for the public plunderer who was convicted of conspiracy by tho unanimous vote of twelve jurymen presided over by Chief Jndgo NcilBon.

His messago favoring a reduction of wator ratos is a move In the right direction, which will en courago our manufacturers to remain with their business In this city, where tho Interests of the self supporting citizens of this organization are centered.

No one had worked harder against Mayor Howell then ho had (tbo speaker) but ho had been mistaken about tho man. ho was willinR to acknowledge it and intended to stump the city from ward to ward and tell the people to make a mistake about Mr. Howoll this time.

It been said ho cut down the salaries of tho working men, of the school teachers and of tho police and fire men. He did not. lio simply reuueeu mo iuu amount tho amironriations. Then, those in charge of the de partments, who were against Sir. HoweU, cut down the salarios of tno employes, but thoy squandered the ret.
