. OMELLOF AIR CBIET DINE (Meanwhile Republican County Committee To-Night Will Elect “Charlie” Murray President to THE WORLD: Succeed Linn Bruce. HARMONY 1S NOW THE CRY. Mathews Slated to Succeed Man chester as Secretary of the Com- mittee—Gruber and Lauterbach in the Ascendant. At the mecting Sounty Committee to-night the dele- gatos Of the’ bi ton to-da trict captalns: of the lines, Ip the taik the Governor preached harmony, the unity of interests of tho Republicans arid told what a grand man Spnator Platt was. ‘The. tpeech was considered not so much @ dop tothe Senator as it was an timation that from this time -on if Odell was permitted to run things with- out friction from the friends of the Senhtor the Senator's friends would be friends look upon the speech as a proolama- considered. The Governor's on of amnesty. we of the Republican “five districts will do Odell and elect y President to sue- ft the cltv for ‘Washing- Po-night with Mrs. Odell fhe will be 2 guest at the Cabinet dinner given by Prasident Roosevelt. Among Republicans the speech of the Governor last night at the dinner of Edward H. Healy in the Bronx to the-election dis- thirty-five dis- tricts was considered along the right At the meeting to-night the Governg?| will give an evidence of the kind of ‘harmiony he desires tn the party. Mr. Murray will be placed in charge of the machine in the city and if the plans of the Governor are carried out there will be no halting in the campaign for 1904, In adiiitton to Mr, Murray taking the Place of Mr. Bruce, Armitage Mathews will replace George Manchester as Seoretary of the committee. For ten years Mr. Manchester has handled the details of campaign work, been the right hand man of county presidents, including Edward Lauterbach, Lemuel E. Quigg, Gen. Greene, Robert Morris, Mr, Bruce and others. Mr. Mathews is distinctly an anti-Platt man. He was an Assistant District-Attorney un- der (W. M. K. Olcott, now law partner of Abe Gruber. Mr, Gruber made him an Alderman. While an Alderman, Mathews was the object of attack by Mayor Low at the reorganization of ‘the Board. He*was carried in upon @ stretcher to vote for the organiza- tion, After having done this Mathews was considered opposed to anything Mayor: Low favored personally. He incurred the enmity of the Citizens’ Union and was an advocate of Repud- lican rather than Fusion principles. His selection by the County Commit- tee to supplant Manchester is taken as an indication that in the ongantza- tlon Mr. Gruber will have much to say. ‘The Influence of Gruber, Lauterbach and others in the reorganized Commit- tee wil be strong, and their sumges- tions as to the proper methods to be followed for strengthening the party Mnes in, the county will have’ great weight. It bes been agreed that at. the meet- ing to-night there shall be great talk of harmony. The speech of the Gov- ernor la#t-night is considered: to strike the. keynote to be ¢ollowed by any per- old in- Committ; Before Starting for Washington ‘to- day COs Govern oe Cis ooh hiimeelf by- saying he pleased with the situa- tion in the 2 Republican party. Senator Platt 1s in Washington, and the Gov- ernor and the ‘senator will meet to- night or to-morrow. TIGERS CLAMOR FOR THE SPOILS Leader Murphy Evidently Wor- tied by the Insistance of the Old Guard for Places .Under the McClellan Regime. POLICE HEAD HARD T OFIND. It Is Now Predicted that There WIH Be a Prolonged Howl In Tammany. When the New State Is Announced. As the time draws near for the ap- pointment of officials to assist George B, McClellan in governing the city it | the Grows more and more apparent that Charles F, Murphy is puzzled and wor- ried. On the one hand he is besleged by old-time Tammany office-holders who resigned under the Van Wyck regime and were up to their necks in the Ram- @po and Ice Trust woandals. On the other hand, he 1s cautioned by men who desire'to see Tammany strike out in a new direction, and between the two cur- rents he is a twisted man, It is evklent that nothing has been decided upon regarding the Police Com- misstonership. Word comes from Lony don that J, Sergeant Cram announces positively that he would not take the ‘Treas-| place if it were offered him. William i) RMcAdoo, former Assistant Secretary of the Navy, 1s the man most prominently mentioned, but Tammany in general does not fancy McAdoo, and the prab- tem’ of picking out @ person of probity ‘and executive ability. who will be gatis- factory to tthe organization and ‘still | of not of %t, is one that Duilds tiny lines CHRISTMAS GREETING SALE IN THE BASEMENT. round tho corners of Mr. Murphy's eyes. + Place Is Hard to Fill. Both Mr. McClellan and Mr. Murphy realize that upon the conduct of the Police Department for the next two years the Tammany administration must Stand or fall. The polic) force is a hard army to handle. ‘To got a man who knows policemen, is a disciplinarian and at the same time Mberal is a task that looked easy before election, but is becoming extremely arduous. ‘The hidebound Tammany men are im- ploring Murphy to disregard public sen- timent and give the jogs to the “boys.” The chronic office-holders who have lived on what they could get from the city for years are howling for places, and in their howls there is @ trace of menace. ‘The leader of Tammany 1s deing told taht no matter who is the head $f the Police Department the organization will get the ill will of the public anyhow and it is better to have a ‘safe man ‘who can be handled than a stranger. ‘Tammany ‘Hall was crowded to-~ddy with the men whose fingers itch for & chance to close on city checks, They stormed Murphy, but he turned a cold and wrinkled ear to most of them.
