The Republican organization will not consent to Edward M. Grout and Charles V. Fornes remaining on the Fusion ticket if they accept nom- inations from Tammany. Hall. This decision is likely to cause a serious split in the Fusion ranks, Senator Platt and the Republican leaders wish them to be dropped if they accept 1 Tammany nomination. R. Fulton Cutting, Pres’ ~~t of the Citizens’ Union, believes that the running of Mr. Grout and Mr. Fornes on both tickets will result in benefit to Mayor Low and will probably fight any attempt to force them off th ticket unless the Mayor should ask him to fall in line with the Republican machine. AND HERE COMES DI:VERY. William S. Devery butted into the situation this afternoon by filing the petition nominating him for Mayor. James Shevlin, speaking for the Brooklyn Democrats, said that if they found in the convention that they could no! heat McClellan a delegate from 4 Kings would move to make his nomination unanimous. ‘The suggestion of the District-Attorney that the work of the Fusion convention be wiped out and a new ticket placed in the field has been the subject of discussion among the supporters of the Mayor.” The implied promise of the District-Attorny tha! in such a contingney’ he would get into the campaign as vigrously as ne did (wo years ago may help the plan | along. {THIS WOULD BE A CLIMAX, % ARaseE dine UP and neither wae Norman) “ “ irugn McLaughlin Js of the opinion that Mayor Low will withdraw trom i First Inning. the contest.

Murphy on the floor of the convention next Thursday. He held long conferences with his lieutenants in Willoughby street and dis- cussed the situation thoroughly. The old man was not in his usual playful mood. He appeared to be dazed at the way things are spinning around. Senator McCarren and others of the McLaughlin forces were in the other boroughs of the city to-day seeking support for the McClellan opposition, It is said in Brooklyn that Mr. McLaughlin is counting on the support of Louis Haffen, of the Bronx, which would assure thirty votes, and that Sena! tor McCarren is depended on to wheel enough Assembly districts in this bot ough into Ine to overwhelm the Tammany vote ; YO BOLT CONTEMPLATED. “Brooklyn,” said Mr. McLaughlin this afternoon, tion, We are going into the convention to fight, but we wiil not bolt the nominee if we are beaten. That {s all I have to say now, except that I wouldn't be surprised to see Mayor Low, in a fit of pique, resign from the fusion ticket and make {t necessary for them to put up another candidate, I don’t see how he can maintain his self-respect and his standing as'a Re- publican If he runs on a ticket with men who are running on a Tammany . Hall ticket. City Chamberlain B. R, L. Gould is of the opinion that the indorsement of Comptroller Grout and President Fornes will seriously affect the chances | of Mayor Low's re-election. Ho said so to-day. This statement fs signill- ‘ant, in view of the fact that Mr. Gould is Mayor Low's admirer and one of “is in a peculiar pasty © the founders of the Citizens’ Union. —— urthermore, Mr. Gould indicated that at to-day’s meeting of the Citt- rens’ Union Executive Comunittee the question of reshaping the Fusion ticket, as indicated in the letter of District-Attorney Jerome, might be dis- cusssd either formelly or informally, MAY MEAN NEW FUSION TICKET, This view of the situation, coming from so prominept a member of the municipal administration and tho Citizens’ Union, created considerable astonishment, and was accepted in many quarters as a verification of the © rumor which spread to-day that the Citizens’ Union management was al- ready considering new nominees in place of Comptroller Grout and Presi- dent Fornes. ‘To top this situation Senator Platt also came out with a statement ty / which he declared that it was inconsistent that Messrs, Grout and Foi run on the Fusion ticket. “It seems to me that for Mr. Grout and Mr, Fornes to accept a many nomination would be.an act of-base disloyalty to the.
