on Sunday, and the two had long talk, partly IN
the presence oil third person.
WHAT IT MEANS.
The conference Is said TO have been OF warm
nature. Tilden deprecated these troubles as q
source OF ncessant weakness to the party, and
for the reason that the republicans were making
capital out OF them every day. John, OF Saratoga
however. did not mince matters In re terence TO
John OF Tammany Hall.
SAID gentleman this morning who is In the
confidence OF both the Governor and Morr!ssey,
Morrssey has the best OF the light In this respect
he does not want any official position for himself,
nor would ne take the best they could ofer him.
He gave Jonn Kelly all he has to-day and he can
hold his own without TSmmany while Tammany
is sorely in need OF open hands and full pockets.
lie has helped many men In position ana power
in the city OF New York without getting any part

some arrangement is made TO give him hearing;

If they do admit him he will listen TO their charges
in person, and then he will take that statement Of
his that you published and dare Kelly to deny one
syllable oft. AS he told Mr.. Belmont Mr.. Schen
and many others, Morrissey s prepared to stand

him than you can deny your identity. He knows

OF respected New York judge to whom 1t was

| "But Jonn Kelly has made this a personal
matter. Morrissey has neither questioned Kely's

He has spoken out at Kelly's blunders, ana every
man in the General Committee ought to have at

Will be the most abect political slaves In the
country. Jonn Kelly dare not call the General
Committee together to discuss this matter.
Let me tell you that Morrlssey will give
Kelly going over when he meets MIN in COM

John OF the Spa and John OF the Temahawk will
have thirty witnesses to the interesting debate
or this you may be sure, Tilden and Wckham and
Kelly are each playing special points on this
