With tho 1ckleness OF goa head people the fever
Or the last few days on the municipal mys-

Day yesterday public comment ran upon the
chances OF o breakup In the Republican
Convention al Syracuse. The bulletins OF
The evening papers were read with avidlty and the
news OF possible breakup among the Kilkenny

democratic circles. Republicans cursed Fenton and

resulting from the stoppage OF iunds The exception
IN .avor Of salaries Is OF course something which
would soon prove useless, in view OF the fact that
the hands must have something to work upon, and
It is not 10 be presumed that the supply OF material
on hand would last for any Heightened period. The
department OF Parks has been the first to
feel the effects OF the drying up Of the
