"I feel very confident at this hour that we will break the deadlock tomorrow with the election of Lewis and Sherman. I sea nothing in the late developments tonight to cause me to change my mind. I have now on my desk the names of forty-three Democratic members of the Assembly who will vote for Lewis and Sherman tomorrow. There are three other lists out, on one of which I am told there are five names. I confidently expect that no less than sixty Democrats will vote for the two primary nominees tomorrow.
