NEW Y, RK, Sept. 81 The discussions are so
| wide and deep among the democrats it is very
| doubtful if they can cOalesee in any way before
| the election. Mozart Hall, Ledwith'S party and
| the young democracy are ON the same ground
| in their relations with other anti-Tammany
democratic organizations in replying to all over
| lures that they will ally themselves with no fac
| ton for common movement but will receive as
many democrats, no matter what faction they
belong to, as choose to enter their respective or
| CARNATIONS as individuals. This offer has been
| declined by all other organizations, and demo-
| Gratis are therefore very seriously divided now
There are five democratic organizations includ-
ing Iammany society, and four of these are
pledged to opposition to the ring. These four
are German democratic, general committee,
young democracy, democratic union and Led
with party. Of these the German democratic
party claims first place in point of numbers.
They say they can poll 10000 votes, and their
detection, therefore, was serious blow to Tam
many.
The leaders of this party were all known as
political machine men, and their action in desert
ing Tammany is ascribed to strong feeling
among Germans against corruption, in places
of trust, which would have induced them to
| throw overheard any of their prominent men
who still acknowledged themselves friends of
| the ring. Judge Hilton declared the work must
| be stopped in the department Of public parks at
the close of the week, unless the controller fur
nishes funds for paying laborers, clerks, and

unless an appropriation of some kind is made
Deputy Controller Greene has, he hopes, near
| ly completed arrangements by which he will be
| able to pay this week the salaries of teachers in
| the public schools for August.
