Y e “Kill Him and Skin Him and Nail His Old Hide to the Wigwam” ¢ 46 TIGER CUBS SENT TO SING SING Said Nominee Hearst in an Address Last Night— he Campaign Grows Fiercer as the :ime to Election _ay Shortens—Argument, Red Fire and Invective .Dis- tributed All Over Greater New York. New York, Oct. 20.—With United States Attorney General Wickersham bitterly attacking -Willlam J. Gaynor in behalf of republican fusion ticket, argument, red fire and invective were spread pretty nearly over all of Greater New York tonight, with the municipal election only two working days away. Hundreds of Meetings. Hundreds of minor mass meetings at which minor candidates were the drawing cards were held in the five boroughs, while the respective heads of the three tickets—independent, dem- ocratic and republican—were the chief speakers of the larger gatherings. Hearst, Gaynor and Bannard Busy. W. R, Hearst spoke three times on the Bast Side, Willlam J. Gaynor spoke in Brooklyn and then came to Man- hattan, while Otto T. Bannard, begin- ning in the theater district, swept downtown, then up into Harlem, None of the candidates said anything partic- ularly new, but all confined themselves to summing up their campaign argu- ments. This is to be repeated tomorrow night and on Monday, while the polit- ical discussions will be renewed in the pulpits on Sunday. \ Hearst Strikes a Popular Chord. Hearst, keeping up his appeal to the “common people,” struck a popular chord tonight by announcing in one of his addresses that if he was elected | mayor he would hire a spacious hall, where he would appear at stated times for a heckiing by the people, to answer | their questions and to. receive their advice. Leaving this topic, he spoke of ballot box stuffing, a subject which, he said, he felt especially competent 10 touch upon in view of his experiences ! in when he was defeated for mayor. He said tonight that he was prepared to meet attempts to repeat at the coming election. The Tiger is Doomed. “Forty-six Tiger eubs haye been sent to Sing Sing,” he sald, we would like to send a regular Hudson-Fulton parade to the gsame during "the coming ‘month. / “But we are golng the Tiger this vear—kill him im and nl'l‘l. his hide to the e ol b e fmarked on the fuct that Tem- many has long souzhit to gain control of fipnmm and with the nomination of Gayner. he safd, the attempt was Tenewed in.a new form.

Appeal to Police to Lay Aside Politics. on the Manhattan side of Mr. Bannard, abandoning the finan- al affairs of the city for a night, spoke principally of the police and per— sonal liberty, a subject which has been used_principally by Gaynor. The po- lice department, he said, ghould be re- moved_ entirely from politics and the enforcement of the law should be rea- sonable but not spasmodic. “The police can give us honest pi fes and hon®st elections,” he said: “they are in a position to do it, and 1 appeal to them for the sake of this fair city to lay aside politics and do i hout fear or favor to any candi- Judge Gaynor. speaking first to old | neighbors in Brooklyn tonight, took the defensive and leaned on his record. “As police_commissioner of Flatbush,” he sald, “T have shown that with | officers,” and no crowbars or hatchets. | | I could close six disorderly roadhouses.” He denied that be ever was on trial for violation of the tenement house law as has been charged. but asserted that all his properties were safe and sani- tary. As to | | | | | the <ha that he had a monthly income of $1,200 from- tene- ments, the truth w he said, that he owned property assessed at $6,000F and mortgaged for $14,000, vielding him | per cent. on his investment. A letter which was published afternoon papers in which Judge Ga: | in nor scratched out the name A. Kerr and substituted “Cur” was prompted, he said, by his anger at in- sinuations by the writer that he (Ga { nor) afforded protection to gamblers by his decisions.. He denied that he owned a mortgage on the Brighton Beach race track. The Kerr referred 10 in the letter in question is president of the Bannard Campaign club. Another Libel Suit Against Hearsf Robert R. Moore, democratic candi- date for comptroller, brought suit te day for $100,000 for fbel against Wil- liam R. Hearst because of an article printed today in the American charg- ing that Moore was used as a_“dum- my"” to obtain large loans from Charles W. Morse. This js the second libel suit of the campaign, Gaynor having brought suit against_the Evening World, which is supporting him, for printing an article by Arthur Brisbane, editorial writer for the Hearst papers.
