WILL JUMP HURDLES IN NEW YORK RACE Repuhlicafi-coalition Men Find Candidates in Way New York, Aug. 30.—Three hurdles are in the pathway of the Republi Coalition organization in the race for the New Yorx city mayoralty nomina- tion on September 13—Major F. H. 1.z Guardia, president of the board of ald- ermen; former State Senator W, A Bennett of Brooklyn, and Judge Reu- ben L. Haskell of Brooklyn. The Republicans and Coalitionists, who recently unanimously agreed upon Major Henry H. Curran, president of the Borough of Manhattan, as their candidate, are confident he will sur- mount each barrier and that when the race is over there will be complete har- mony in the quadrennial attempt twist the tail of the Tammany tiger Linked with Curran, are State Sena- tor Charles C. Lockwood of Brooklyn, candidate for comptroller and Vincent Gilroy, candidate for the presidency of the board of aldermen. Lockwood was a strong contender for the designation for mayor, but withdrew in favor of Curran at the eleventh hour. Gilroy’s uncle was a Tammany mayor of New York_ Major La Guardia, a former repre- sentative in congr who served with the Italian air forces in the great war, a “‘regular” Republican, has kicked over the traces and announced his op- position to the state government inter- fering with city affairs. Former Senator Bennett was the man who upset Repub- lican-Fusion plans four yea ago, when he won an unexpected victory the late Mayor John Purroy Mitchel in the primaries. Judge Hask- ell was elected to the Kings County bench on a ‘‘wet’” platform in a spec- tacular campaign two years ago. Efforts were recently made by M La Guardia to fuse himself, Bennett and Haskell into one ticket, but the ef- fort failed, when Bennett filed a com- plete ticket. All three express confid- ence they will obtain the nomination. Tammany Hall has named Mayor John F. Hylan as a candidate to suc- ceed himself and no opposition 1 peared. The Republican-C forces have directed some of their fire on Charles F. Murphy, the Tammany head, and scored him for his method of selecting a ticket. The time has arrived,” s the Republican-Coalition candidate president of the board of aldermen, in recent address, ‘‘to throttle Murph sinister influence and get rid of an : nt boss who can reach in his vest pocket and fish out a list to be foisted on the voters as a Democratic ticket." Some dissatisfaction Tammany hall when Murphy announc- ed his designation on the ticket. Ef- forts have been made to organize an anti-Tammany ticket to give a place to minor officials who were left off Mur- phy’s slate for various reasons. The ion of the legislative commit- headed by Senator Schuyler M. Meyer, into Mayor Hylan's administra- tion, coming in the heat of the primary campaign has aroused interest. The mayor, who appe: the first witness at open hearings, gave what the committee called, evasive answers when questioned on the city" finances. The committee sought gen- erally to prove that the city had ex- ceeded the debt limit prescribed by state law and that the executive admin- istration was marked by incompetency. The mayor made categorical denials of the charges. The committee will probably continue its open inquiry for several weeks.
