TAMMANY WILL SNUB THE DUKE. CROKER DELIVERS HIMSELF’ OF AN AMAZING INTERVIEW. Saye that the Prince Wili Not ne, Inaulted ta New York, but le WII1 Leave It to the Four Murr dred to Do the Back-Scratch- 4 Shoe-Licking. @ONDON, Aug. 8—Richard Croker, when shown the statement In an Amert- can paper to the effect that the Duke and Duchess of Corhwall and York would be insulted by Tammany Hall if they visited New York City, Immedf- ately became excited and indignantly denied the story. “Tammany men have no use for roy- alties," sald he, “but, being gentlemen, every one of them, they, are no more Mkely to insult visitors of any rank or nationality than are Englishmen to In- sult me here. “If the Duke and Duchess of Cornwall | and York go to New York, which I consider lkely, Tammany Hall will simply tgnore the circumstance of thelr visit, so far as any oMctal formality Is concerned, and leave to the members of the Four Hundred the very natural task of back-scratching and shoe-licking.”’ —— ROMANCER HAD TO TELL TRUTH DEAD BABY A MYTH, BUT HIS WIFE SICK, LITTLE 8A¥s. Arrested for Striking a Policeman, He Moaned as He Told a Story ef Misery that He Later Ad- mitted to the Mag ‘mate in Court Was Not True. When John Little essayed the’ role of fromancer he made a mistake that cost him $5, He told the police of the Wem Thirtleth street station that hin wife lay euffering from two strokes of paraly- ais, with her dead baby beside her. Then with a wall of agony that seemed to come straight from his heart Little bemoaned his fate: “All I wanted was the money I had earned with the sweat of my brow. I went to the foreman, but he refused and had me arrested. I wps desperate, for I needed the cash ta bury my baby: nd purchase food and medicine for my poor wife.” Little ndded he lived at No. 85 Second avenue. The police found that he did not. They discovered that he hed been arrested by Special OMcer Charles Hunt at the excavation at Broadway and ‘Thirty-ffth street, where he worked as @ laborer for George H. Fuller & Co. He went there late yeaterday and sald that he had given up his job and wanted his money. Later Little be- came pugilistic and struck OMcer Hunt, who arreated him, Then came the romance. Magistrate Mayo asked Little one question in Jefferson Market Court to- day: * your baby dead, Little?" -o, sir, my brother had a baby and”— “Five dollars." He had a friend who pald the fine. An he left the court-room Little sald: “But my wife is sick, honest.” METHODISTS IN YEARLY CANE MEETING AT OSSINING TO LAST TEN DAYS DRAWING MANY. ——— ' Camp Meeting, which was known in the past as the “Sing Sing Camp Meet- ing,” opens this evening on the aid camp grounds, northeast of Ossining, and wil} remain In «ession for ten dayn.
