433 ¥ MMITTEE TI ~ CLAIM CONVENTION New York’s Ws Gibinine Prominent Business, Professional and Political Men Will Go'to Washington Monday and In- vite the Democrats to This City. Three score or more of the most prominent citizens in New! York will leave the Pennsylvania Railroad Depot at 10.55 o'clock! Monday morning to go to Washington, and there present New, ‘ork’s claim for the National Democratic Cony entioa, to be held| in June next. Never in the history ay a National Committee meeting has bids for its home city. Headed by John D. Orimmins and Robert (A. Van Wyck, |# ‘the former chairman of the Citizens’ Committee and the latter) a chairman of the committee appointed by the Democratic Club, these gentlemen will make representations to the National Com-| 2 mittee which, it is now believed, will bring the great convention to| in New York. 5 This committee has everything it can desire. The fund neces- S gary to bring the convention to New York is pledged. It has, _ through The Evening World, succeeded ir. interesting every man a in New York with proper civic pride, and it will go to Washington knowing that it has the backing and the moral and financial sup- port of every one of the four million persons in New York. TRIP FOR ONE FARE. _. "Phe final decision to leave New York for Washington was reached at o meeting of the Executive Committee of the Democvratic Club last night, when Robert A. Van Wyck presided. At this meeting it was made known _ that the Pennsylvania Railroad, through The Evening World, had mado @M agreement to furnish all members of the Now York committes with rates to and from Washington, making the round trip $6.25. It was made known that The Evening World had obtained parlor car accom- modations for all committeemen who desire them. : “It was decided that the 10.55 train leaving Jersey City would be tho most convenient, but the Pennsylvania Railroad offered the half-fare tickets on all its Washington trains leaving on Monday. Mr. Van Wyck sald that it would be wise for the New York delegation to leave in a body, and the 10.65 train was selected. It will arrive in Washington at 4.20 P. M., which will give the New York delegation time to begin work among tho members of the National Committee. ‘This committee was then appointed as a part of the Citisens’ Uommit- tee to represent the Democratic Club: (a Robert A. Van Wyck, chairman; John Fox, Randolph Guggenheimer, __ Robert B, Roosevelt, Daniel O'Day and John O'Rourke. Washington was ‘ communicated with and accommodations engaged at the Arlington Hotel, A parlor for the New York delegation was also engaged. the Entertainment Committee of the New York delegation will hold forth, ‘and reali New York hospitality will be dispensed, THANKS FOR THE EVENING WORLD. Just before the mecting adjourned Mr. Van Wyck offered a resolution thanking The Evening World for the energy and untir- ing efforts in organizing the Citizens’ Committee to bring the con- vention to New York. it has succeeded in doing what for a time seemed impossible. 1 smoye a vote of thanks for The Evening World in the name of this club and the committee now sitting,” 40 said. The vote of thanks was carried unanimously. A message was then read from ex-Gov. Levi P. Morton, who said that ‘he was heartily in sympathy with the movement and that he would lend ‘all his influence in bringing the convention to New York. “Y pelleve it will be an excellent thing for this city,” he said. Mr. Van Wyck asked The Evening World to announce the gompietion of the organization. “The Byening World has selected a very excellent body of business ‘and professional men and representative politicians,” he satd. the co-operation of every one of them. We want every man named by The Bvening World who has consented to act on this committee to come to ‘Washington with us Monday. I want it impressed on every one of these ‘men thet his presence is needed, and is needed badly. There is not a man among the number who has not influence and whose presence will not lend prestige to our body. Please say for me that we want them, and that they should come. If all of them do, and if our prospects continue as bright as they are now, we will get the Democratic National Convention in New ‘York in June next. WHAT HAS BEEN DONE. “We have raised the funds necessary to make a most formidable bid for the convention. We have brought influence to bear on the National Com- mitteemen which cannot but tell. We have shown them that New York not only deserves the convention, but that it is the only city in the country that can make all the delegates to the convention, and the hundreds of thousands of friends, relatives and followers, comfortable and happy.” » While Mr. Van Wyck was busy at the Democratic Club Mr. John D. - Orimmins wus equally busy at his office. All day yesterday he was seeing Ligon men and acquaintances, gentlemen who have influence with the National Committeemen wil, goto Washington Saturday and others who have joined forces with mo “will leave on the train Monday morning,” he said. “I am more than grati- fied at the turn affairs have taken, and belleve now that we are on tne > right road and am hoping that we will gain our ends. cs “TI am particularly pleased to co-operate with the other gentlemen in ui ‘this movement. What we wanted, and what we have got, is concerted gage “Charles F. Murphy, leader of ‘Tammany Hall, is now in Atlantic City ith Philip F. Donohue and Judge McMahon. The three will meet the New ‘k delegation in Philadelphia Monday and go on to Washington with the : lead Committee. ha SHA YNE FOR THE CONVENTION. Chitstopher C. Shayne, the furrier, of Nos. 124 and 126 West Forty- | Street, is another prominent business man who is interested in the ment to bring the convention to this city. Business men, Mr. Shayne are not the only ones who would be benefited by the convention, ould be a boon to the city in general, believe,” lie said, “that it would benefit the hotels, business houses, Aad every one in the city. The delegates who would come here States would have an opportunity to learn something that they beg ty any place else. It would be a sort of edneation for a man nother State to spend a week in this city. proved that conventions have benefited Chicago, and they for New York. Then, again, if the Democrats hold their ‘this city others will follow them, we have better facilities for handling large crowds here ‘thts the country, We could take care of from 10,000 to elty and not be crowded a bit.” COMMITTEE STARTS. h. 9-—Chicago’s delegation to secure t Ba ig National Demo- wot - euch a representative body of men organized to appear and make} pubitc In this parlor |&° “The Evening World’s work has been of untold help.

CHICAGO JUDGE LASHES JEROME es, Characterizes the District-Attor- ney’s Interview as a “Law- Defying, Crime-Inciting Utter- ance from a Public Official.” CHICAGO, Jan. 9—Judge Eéward F. Dunne delivered a broadside from the bench to-day against the sentiments re- ported to have been expressed by Dis- trict-Attorney Jerome, of New York, re- garding the rough handling of “crooks.” “A law-defying, crime-Inciting utter- ance from a yublic official charged with the preservation of the peace,'’ was the opinion expressed by Judge Dunne, of District-Attorney Jerome's reported plan of treating lawbreakers. Judge Dunne gave utterance to this sentiment after Attorney Robert E. Cantwell had represented to the Court that a prisoner who was arrested and subsequently charged with complicity in several murders and robberies hud been roughly handled by the police, “The night of the. Iroquois fire a policeman came to this man’s cell at Central Station and pushed a gun into the prisoner's eye, severely injuring him," declared Attorney Cantwell, Attorney Cantwell referred to the al- leged attack In connection with the hearing of a petition for a writ of habeas corpus to obtain the release of two other prisoners from the custody of the police, The two were released upon givinng bonds. “Men in Mr. Jerome's position should not be gullty of uttering such Incendiary and illegal sentiments," continued Judge Dunne. “It is most outrageous, un- worthy of the man and @ disgrace, to his office, am astounded at Mr. Jerome, as IT Mage bso pele) ved im to be ‘a vigorous nd onest man.

The po- lice had been stationed there to warn all persons from entering, Capt. McDer- mott, of the Fifth street station, believ- ing the place to be a pool-room. Duke was warned away, but he insist- ed that he was a member of the club horror and, as there was little prospect that they would soon open, he had come here to look for an engagement. Just before he went to his room Iast night he told the clerk that he had been to all of the theatrical agencies and had been turned down all along the line. He seemed despondent. A chambermaid heard groans from Meivi room to-day and opened the door, which was unlocked, and saw Melville lying on the bed writhing as though in great pain. Sue informed tho office, and Policoman Schumacher was called in. He telephoned to the New York Hospital for an ambulance, and Dr. Erskine responded, On a table in the room was found the empty bottle, which had contained two ounces of carbolic acid and the doctor said Melville must have swallowed all of it, d| into the actor's stomach, and he was hurried to the hospital, where addition- al antidotes were applied. He was revived sufficiently to say that his name was Hudson Melville, that his home was in Chicago and that he had come here expecting to find an engage- ment as an actor and that, fatiing in that, he had spent all of his money and bad decided to die. But the doctors said he would not die and that in a few days he would be well enough to be arraigned in court on @ charge of attempting to commit sul- clde.

The bill has been prepared and will be fathered by the local Republican members of the Legisiature. Assemblyman Edward R. Finch, of the Fifth District, has had charge of the preparation of the bill.
