declared that he must have one Judge OF the
Supreme Court, one Judge of the Superior
Court and one Judge of the Court Of Com

man, perhaps depraved, wicked and vile, should
be permitted by groveRing, enslaved, blind. sto-
lid people to declare that he must own Judge.

Mozart were to be successful. there would be at
least two individuals in this city each of whom
would own Judge. body and soul. Mr.. McKeon
showed up the secret machinery by which the no.
limitations for judges were made in Tammany Hall,
asserting that one of the reasons why Judge Hill.
ton was not renominated was that he had grant
ed an injunction in the Broadway Railroad case.
He understood that an effort was to be made to-
night to have ratification Of the Tammany Hall
nominations, under the sanction of Governor Sey-
mour's presence; but II Governor should allow
such q thing to be done it would be his death

a communication vetolng resolution authorizing
the Comptroller to draw his warrant in favor Of
paying the publishers Of the World newspaper the
sum of 1888 rs for advertising the proceedings
and notices of the Board Of Assessors. The
reasons assigned were, that, although that news
paper had been authorized by the Common Coun.
Gil to publish the official proceedings Of that body,
it did not include the advertising Of the several
departments. Section forty-six of the city char
ter he believed provided for exactly such cases;
and apart from any legal objection, it would form
precedent and great loss would result to the city

| evening next, at four o'clock.
In the Surrogates Court yesterday, argument
