He declared the association embraced in its membership only about one-seventh of the lawyers of th and added that those members are to a great extent counsel for corporations and trusts, Then Mr. Croker paid his respects to Bourke Cockran as follows: ourke Cockran, who was the star at- trac n of the occasion, and now poses as a non-partisan statesman, left the demo- cratic party for that party's good. If he or any of his new-found friends have any doubt of the correctness of this assertion he and they may know where to apply for ticulars. They may come directly to amor lie the fact that this is ttempt by Tweed’s lawyer to re-elect 's judge, and in this connection it should be nembered that Mr. Root was not only counsel for Tweed, but is the private counsel for Mr. Roosevelt, the re- lican candidate for governo: ate every ion in the democratic ot helping Mr. Roosevelt, his ent and political leader. He even went so far as to go before the republican convention with the startling assertion that a man might have one residence for the purpose of taxation and another which should be his real home. “It may have been forgotten that during the Tweed reign and collapse Elihu Root was ranged on the side of Tweed and his ring. In the very year in which Tweed elevated Daly to the bench, my position was disclosed by Tweed’s action legislating my e and my associates out of power. “In 1873 it was common knowledge tha: Tweed h e : d stolen millions of dollars from the publie treasury, and that all the proper- ty which stood in his name and that of his son, Richard M.

FIGURING GN VOTES oi ae Managers in New You: State Try to Forecast ‘Election. ARGUMENT FROM FORMER RESULTS pais Reasons Why Light Registration This Year Favérs Roosevelt. J. T. CARROLL'S ADMISSION Special Cor--spordence of The Evening Ster. NEW YORK, October 24, 1808, The “figuring days” of the campaign are beginnirg. With both candidates stumping the state, the managers of their headquar- ters in this city are quigtly footing up what they expect, based upon.the complete regi: tration returns. There is one significant ccncession regarding these returns, and it comes from John F. Carroll, Croker’s per- sonal representative and the manager of the present local campaign. Carroil con- cedes that Van Wyck’s vote will be cut down because of the light registration in the democratic wards of, Greater New York. He has cut down his claim of a plurality of 100,000 for Van Wyck to 75,000, probably with the consent of Richard Croker. Mr. Carroll, Senator Murphy and all the other democratic managers, profess, however, that they are still confident. In the coasideration of registration re- sults the careful observer remembers these axioms: A light registration always favors the democrats, while a heavy ration draws out the indifferent voters, 2 con- tinuous results in elections show that the vote that comes from Ineres ration is cast on the side of good government.

The figures of past elec tions prove that he can if the party ganization g>ts out the vote. He is conced- edly stronger than his party up the state. Added to this, it is asserted that many democr: will not vote for the Croker- Murphy ticket. The McKinley year cannot be taken ir one on which to figure, but the following may: In 1888 Harrison had 84,280 above the Bronx.

In 18% Morton for governor came to the Harlem with 143,406 majority. In 1895 Palm:r for secretary of state came to New York, Kings, Riehmond and Queens with 142,407 majority. In 1807 William J Wallace for chief justice of the court o: ypeals came to Greater New York with 76,691 over Alton B. Parker.

This would handsomely elect-Col. Roosevelt, and no candidate for governor has ever been defeated who came to the Harlzm with 70,00. Average Democratic Majority. For the same period it is interesting to take the average of democratic majoritics in the territory now known as Greater New York. In 1888 Cleveland had 71,600. In 1889 Rice had 5. In 1891 Flower had 77,186. In 1892*Cleveland had 111,777. In 1893 Meyer for secretary of state had 61,265. In 1884 Hill was in a majority of 17,133 in Greater New York against Gov. Morton. In 1805 Horatio C, King had for secretary of state 53,362, The year 1896 is not taken, nor can 1897 be put accurately in the table, as no cxdidate for judge of the court of appeals wiis?on the Citizens’ Union ticket. It wouldybe fair, however, to give the republican candidate for judge of the court of appeais three-fourths of the Low vote and one-third otha George vote, while giving Alton B. Parker the remain- der, with Mayor Van,Wyck's vote. This would give Parker a majority in Greater New York of 65,213. ‘This figures a total majority in eight yeats 6f 512,738 for the democrats in Greater ‘Ns York, as com- pared with 678,226 in :theosame period for the republicans above jhe Bronx, or an av- erege majority each year for the democrats in Greater New York gf 1,002, as against an average republican,-majority of 84,778 to the Westchester county line. a OFFICERS *SCHOSEN. a Annual Meeting of North Capitol and Eckington Association.

Col. Bisbee Said There Was Scarcity of Food in the Trenches Before Santiago. A dispatch from Anniston, Ala., last even- ing says: The investigation comm! sion sat from 9 o'clock till 5:30 today, and examined about a dozen witnesses, includ- ing a number of volunteer officers. Major David Vickers, who was inspector general for the 2d Division of the 3d Corps at Chickamauga, attributed the troubles in that camp to the shallowness of the sinks. Major Vickers also complained that the drinking water poor. He thought the camp site unfit for so large an army, but so far as food went the privates were fed better than the officers. He said that at one time the beds of all the patients were on the floor, and that there were some cases when there were some on the ground. Asked 2s to the competency of the sur- geon: the hospital, he said there w: one man in the hospital whose pronene to profanity unfitted him for the service. Concerning Army of Invasion. Lieutenant Colonel Bisbee, in command of the Ist Infantry, told the story ef trans- portation of his regiment to Santiago, briefly describing the fighting about Santi- ago; spoke of his experiences in Cuba; of the return to Montauk Point, and of the stay at that place and the transfer south. Asked if the landing at Santiago could have been accomplished if opposed, he re- plied: Picthe facilities were so poor that I think not, at least, I should say, if I had been on shore no enemy would have been per- mitted to land. I cannot say how it was with the Spaniards. v He there was considerable difficulty in getting food while in front of Santiago, but they had enough. He said if there had been more to eat the men would prob- ably have been sicker. He expressed the opinion that the only deprivation had been in not having proper food for the sick. They could not take the food in the con- dition it was In, he said. He thought the rations contained too much fat meat for the climate. Colonel Bisbee stated that himself and sixteen men were the only members of his regiment who had not been ill at some time during the Santiago campaign. “It had been impossible to secure medi- cal supplies,” said the witness, “and if we had them we could not have carried them.” He added the army was badly broken up in that respect and it did not get into shape for some reason. He said the men were just beginning to break in health when Santiago surrendered, and the capitulation came at just the right time. After the surrender of the city there was plenty for all to eat. Not Enough Doctors. Col. Bisbee did not believe there was a sufficient number of doctors in the Cuban campaign. He thought the contract sur- geons were capable doctors, but they were not familiar with army methods, and did not know how to get the necessary medi- cines. Speaking generally of the Cuban experience, he expressed the opinion that the supplies had been as liberal as could have been reasonably expected. He had not compained of the voyage north, The regiment was held at the detention camp for three days. He said in reply to ques- tions from Gen. McCook that a distress signal had been put out for food while they lay out at sea, and when ome vessel came alongside he said he had called out to those aboard to bring them food. He stated in explanation that the food was wanted for the officers’ mess. “The men had enough,” he said, “‘such as it was.” After this and while at Montauk they got more than they needed. “We got it from the people, from aes York relief associations and citizens. hey sent us everything, including w1 and champagne, far more than we want- SENS, Barber & Ross Cheap best and most economical ‘ular hot-air furnace on a small scale —will heat a room 12 ft. x ft. thor- hly, at a cost of only “$2 The best gas heater we know nd or of, Small rooms, et Heaters Valentine’s Felt 7 1 weather strips, 1 2° ft.

Fe] He said he knew of no deprivation at Montauk. “The raw recruits were howling to get into a house, but that was all.” Believed in Beer. Col. James P. Fyfe of the 3d Tennessee, whose regiment had been encamped at Chickamauga as a part of the ist Division of the 3d Army Corps previous to removal here, said the commissary supplies had been excellent in quality and ample in quantity- till within the past month. Col. Fyfe said in reply to questions that a can- teen had been maintained in his regiment and that beer in large quantities had been sold, Most of the receipts, amounting to $400 or $500 per day, of the canteen, were from beer. “Did you consider it proper for your regi- ment to maintain a general beer garden for all the camp?” asked Dr. Conner, reading from a letter as his authority. Col. Fyfe answered “No, but that the beer was there to be sold. He denfed that beer was sold to be car- ried away except to officers, and advocated the sule of beer at canteens’ as a protection against more serious indulgence in whisky. He expressed the opinion that Chicka- mauga was an excelient camp site, but he considered the water supply bad as it was | arranged. He thought a pipe line should have been run to the camp from Crawfish springs. Complained of Their Trousers. Maj. Otto H. Falk, who was the chief quartermaster of the Ist Division of the 3d Army Corps while in Chickamauga Park, said the most serious complaint in the early history of Camp Thomas was from the ist Missouri, whose men claimed that their trousers were nothing more than rags, and threatened to appeal to charity at home to supply their wants. There was also a short- age in tents, which became guite serious at the time of the beginning of the rainy sea- son. Previous to that time men had slept under the trees and under their shelter tents. without complaint. Indeed, he said, there rote @ sufficient page fee _ age, and it was necessary to put men a tent, Continuing, he said the division Barber & Ross, No. off in Poritan—uses 4 quarts ‘dours—only $6.50 & llth &GSts, % ms had never been completely eq the present tim ally in the transportation facilities. He said that there had been no refusal requisitions. Maj. Falk thought there was too much red tape in the quartermaster’s department. Il- lustrating, he said he had had to sign his name nine times in the process of paying a bill of $20. Hospital Corps Inetlicient. Dr. Charles M. Drake, in charge of the general hospital here, and who was in com- mand of the hospital of the Ist Division of the 3d Corps at Chickamauga, said: “There was such a flood of disease that it Was almost Impossible to meet the demand for tentage, and quite out of the question to anticipate it.” As fast as he would pitch new tents they would fill them up. He stated that the medical supplies had been ample from the beginning, but the hospital corps had proved inefficient as nurses. pped until matter of however, honor “They were, as a class,” he said, “the very worst material that could have been found out of which to make nurses.” How- ever, he thought there had been no more serious results than discomfort to patients caused by the inefficiency of the nurses. —+-o+—___ Frank W.
