WM. F. DODGE NOT FOR MORRlsSEf.
HK DENIES THE CHAEGE-No MEMBER OF HIS fiRM
OR HIS HOUSEHOLD SUPPORTED MoRRlssEi-
HIS OPINION OF JOHN KELLY AS REFoRMkk'
"Many people are anxious to know your
reasons for voting for John Morrissey" said represent
atiye OF THE TRIBUNE to Mr. Wm. Z. Dodge yesterday
You have no doubt the sharp criticisms upon you
which some OF the wspapers have INDUCED m
$50 far as am aware" replied Mr.. Dodge, no person
connected with my nrm young DID, voted for MI MOT
rissey. As for myself could not vote for man "Do
daily violates the laws Of the state"
"Ths is certainly SURPRISE" said The TRIBUNE repor-
ter why did John Kelly say you had voted Tor MOTIFS
seyr"
"Idon't know. He spoke in the speech be made on
election night OF the support Morrssey had received
from the Phcpses and the Dodges Of Murray HILL NOW
am certain that no member Of my household supported
Morrssey. not even ms coachmau or footman.
The currency gained by the report which counted you
among Mr. Morrisseys chief supporters Is good
tion OF the saying that a lie will travel hundred mics
while truth pulling its boots This lio has uAFcieH
all over New York" said the reporter.
MI Dodge said that be had thought Of writing note
to Mr. Kelly. asking explanation Of the reference 10
him in the election-night speech. Although MT heHy
was generally supposed TO be the absolute ruler OF e
CITY OF New-York, he did not know LIN by slsh''
While l believe Mr.. Kelly to be personally man OF
good character" Mr Dodge went on 10 say, the system
which he is conducting is a continuation Of that which
Tweed introduced. mean /; is the one-mau poWer-the
worst possible system OF government MI. Kelly Is
no doubt honest himself but he has given rs nothing Dut
promises OF economy in expenditures and reduction oi
taxation our taxes are high ever, and Mt helly
refuses 70 down tie eXOrbaut pay oil the ely on
cias or to reduce their numbers. We saw now mite
genuineness there Is in his professions OF economy last
Winter. When the streets were almost impaSsaDie ~
reason OF the accumuaons Of snow and susn, he hed
men at a dollar and half DAY to clear Them although
thousands stood ready to work for "A dollar MS pea
was that no man could support family on dollar
day. bur the real purpose probably to gain potca'
support"
"Do you see any way relieve the taxpayers OF tis
city of their enormous burdensi Must they always De
the prey Of the Democratic politicians y
I've have some hope that the Constitutional Amend
ments might prevail" replied Mr. Dodge, but MI hely
and all his followers attacked them in the canvass anu
presume there is no chance Of getting them through
the Legislature. Mr Kelly talked about daranch'sin-
poor men, and succeeded raising Ignorant prejudice
against the amendments. No Acknowledgement Is Iro
nosed II the amendments adopted. every man
would vote for state county and city officers ar before
with tins Limitation only. that Board OF Conss oheIs
TO manage She finances OF the city should DC chosen by
- tax payers only"
