The ar rival of Senator Hill, Chairman Frank Campbell, William Sulxer and others, gave rise to a discussion over the prob able planks in the platform to be adopt ed at the 8tate Democratic Convention. So far It conttalns the following: 'The administration of Roosevelt is condemned as spectacular, undignified and vacllllat lng." - " It denounces the acquisition of the Philippine, and calls for a revision of the tarUI, pledges' Itself for canals and water ways and advocates federal Interference and control of great monopolies. MANY ARRIVALS. SARATOGA. Sept 29. Nearly aU the Democratic state leaders of prominence are uere and the hotels present scenes of political activity on the eve of the state convention. With former Senator Hill again in the saddle the convention JJCSmJesljjbejtUe .moatJiiiereatinJtha., Democrats of the Empire State have held for a number of years. It Is admit ted on all sides that Mr. Hill will name the man to head the state ticket. It Is admitted also that after complimentary votes have been given to th different men in the field and home pride has been satisfied the act of the delegates in cast ing ballots for the man, who is to be the candidate will be merely perfunctory. While the name of Bird S. Coler, former Comptroller of New York City, continues to be heard most frequently in connec tion with the gubernatorial nomination, his selection for the honor is not regard ed as a certainty by any means, because It is known that a strong effort Is mak ing to placate such old-line Democrats as August Belmont, William C. Whitney, Panted S. Lamont, W. B. Hornblower, Wheeler IL Peckham and others who do not look upon Mr. Coler with great de gree of favor., There Is still talk of Judge Park, Judge O'Brien of the Court of Appeals, Justice Cullen of the Supreme Court and Judge John Clinton Gray of the Court of Ap peals. For second place on -he ticket the name of Elbert B. Morris, President of the State Orange, Is prominently men tioned. 1 ' Compromise of Estate.- - " Although he took chances of losing bis Inheritance from the estate of his father, Harry Bradley, of Indianapolis, brought suit to have .his father's will broken.

HE LAW IS VALID 'Occupation Tax Dodgers Most fay Up. DECISION BY SEARS Mayor Williams Warns AU Delin quents That They Will Be fined. The occupation tax law is a valid meas ure. Bo decided presiding Judge Sears of the Circuit Court this morning. Bome time sgo George Ltnt, an attor ney, commenced action aguinst the city seeking to enjoin the corporation from forcing the payment of an occupation tax on the ground that the law Is uncon stitutional. After hearing arguments pro and con on tha case, and looking up authorities on the subject, the court holds that the law Is valid and therefore the demurrer to tha complaint was sustained. This ends the case as far as the Circuit Court la concerned and it is not thought likely that Mr. Lent will care to carry hie cause to the Supreme Court. MUST NOW PAY UP. The officers stationed at the City Hall were Jubilant when they heard of Judge Sears' decision but did not express any particular surprise. Mayor Williams was probably the hap piest of all as ha . has always been a strong supporter of the occupation tax and has used every 'expedient to try and see the law rt-ldly enforced. When reporter called ' ha was already with statement, or mora strictly a warning to all violators of tha law, which he dic tated as follows; THE MAYOR'S W ARNING. "Every man or firm who has not paid the occupation tax knows It and further they know that they are liable to arrest and prosecution In the Municipal Court. They have been dealt with very leniently in the past but how they must suffer the consequences of their wilful neglect. "I am satisfied that many have held off from paying this tax untn after a test could have been made of the law but they can see now that they have been left without tUnttnm With thoojk facta in view I have decide! that It Is advisable to give all delinquents 10 days more grace In which to come in and pay. This will frtve all those who are so inclined chance to ' square themselves with the NO MORE LENIENCY. "When the prosecutions do commence there will be no dropping of cases but they will be vigorously prosecuted to the end, the end Jilt whom it may. The city Is deeply In need of ready money and the occupation tax law was drawn with the hopes that It would supply a large amount to the treasury. ' "If any of the delinquents are convict ed, and there surely will be, we will real ize more than If they came right forward as tbey wilt be fined and made to pay the penalty." ANOTHER NEW TRAIN.
