the elements necessary for sound and trust
worthy organization in consequence Of their lax
discipline, their faithlessnesS to the Tammany can
ddates, their open barter. of votes to secure the
election ofthe nominees of Apollo Hail. 'In the judg
ment OF your committee" says the report, "a large
portion OF the delegates should be retired. In the
Ninth district the investigation developed state OF
feeling so insubordnate and discordant as to
render 1t ineifectua There have been fagrant
acts Of treachery engendering such distrusr
among them as to make mutual co-Opera-

done with knowlenge OF certain members of the Nine
teenth Assembly district delegation holding seats
In the General Committee Some of the delegation openly
worked against the rammany organization at the late
election and used their influence to defeat the regular
candidates An utter want of confidence and armony
had rendered the organization poweress tor good and
only available for mischief and discord. In the Twenty
first district the committee found that no regular meet
ing of the delegation was ever held that some of the
delegation did not vote, and OF them acknowledged
having interest in the management Of the district
The report closes with the following resolution
Resolved, That the seats the deeg from the Fifth,
Ninth, Nineteenth and Twenty-frst districts in this

Organization to report substitutes to fill the
the next meeting of this committee.
Assistant Alderman Isaac Robinson moved to
table the report but 1t was adopted by large
majority The action OF Tammany Hall last even
ing virtually gives the Fourteenth Assembly dis
trlct to Sheriff Brennan as the member OF the COM
mittee Of that ward is Bernard Reilly one of the
Sherifr's deputies.
