It was a chal- lenge to the men who have accused him of getting his money dishonestly te prove a single charge against him. The challenge apples particularly to the clergymen who fought Tammany from their pulpits. “They have slandered me and villi- fled me,” sald Mr. Croker. “They have called me a common thief, said had no business, and that I partict- pated in the profits of licensing vice. 1 defy any one of them or all of them to prove their charges, “They sald they would do it after election, Why haven't they? Because they can't. They were lying for po- tical effect, and I defy them to prove that I am not speaking the truth.” In addition to thie Mr. Croker made a Jong talk defending te city adminis- tration of the Tammany oMcials about to vetire. He was greatly worked up ever what he charowerigs! as the un- Just attacks made upon nim. “Do you think the organisers of thin movement are in earnest, for the public goad generally?" was asked. “Oh, yea,” he repllel, “and { delleve ‘that Goy.
