District-Attorney Whitman, in a speech which he delivers at the Fusion meeting in Madison Square Garden on the night October 30, took occasion to tell the Fusion managers that he had no patience with a campaign of slander and vilification. In the morning papers of October 31, Mr. Whitman was quoted as follows: “I believe that Judge McCall is an honest man. I have been lawyer in New York for twenty years, and in four years of that time have been the District-Attorney of this county. I or my represent: tives have appeared before Judge McCall day in and day out, and should despise myself if 1 should stand here and condemn or, vilify man as I have known him and who ha: ‘been above suspicion. “I do not have any patience with vituperation, vilification o such things in a campaign.
