The situation in New York, as understood by the politicians at Washington, is such as to be peculiarly susceptible to the influence of money.

It is said that Mr. Gorman e can so manage things as to turn Mr. Quay’s own weapons upon him. NEW YORK CITY THE PIVOTAL POINT. But after all those who look upon the cam- paign more broadly see in the game between the two committees merely a by-play for local advantage in New York city, and believe that the general result is as clouded to the eyes of the managers as to the general public, and as much beyond their control.
