pEsERriONs FROM TANMASY.
4 few members of the Tammany Hall General
Committee have resigned their positions since Tam
mauy departed from the Syracuse Convention, on
the ground that they did not approve of this course
Among politicians these desertons are not consid-
cred of much Importance, because most OF the
secedcrs have been dsaiiected members of the
organization for months past. aud others nave lit
tie influence in IT, Among the doserteT are
Senator Ecclesine and ex-Alerman Waeh-
ner These men have been out of sympathy
with their associates for months past and
| consequently have not had the slightest influence
| in the organization. Matthew j. Brcen. au inin-
| cntal member has written letter 10 Henry Il.
| Clinton, the chairman Of the General CoinWlllee
| stating that whIle he intends to remain member
of the committee, he shall vote for Governor Robin
| SON William L. Cole, another obscure member, re-
signs his place, he also intends To vote Tor Gov-
| ernor Robinson. The resignation by cx-Governor
| Hoffman of the Office of Sachem of the IanmanY
society has little political Importance, as the so
| ciety is entirely "a social Organzailon,. and has
no connection with the Tammany Hall General
Committee, although many members Of the latter are
also members OF the former. Ii Is not believed that
! the sccessi0ns will bc very numerous.
| The members of the Tammany Hall General Com
mttee, a whole, are In good spirits ana have en-
Robinson Sidney p. Nichols. the ex-police Com
| missioner, SAID on Saturday that Mr.. Kelly would
receive a large vote in Albany, OnondaPa;
| Erie Sullivan. Dutchess. Chemung and Cortland
! Counties, as was evident bY the conversation of
men of prominence from those counties In at
tendance at the Syracuse Convention; more
over in the city the whole Iammany county ticket
would be elected. jerome Buck. who year ago
was q prominent member If the Antl-lammany or
| ganization said on Saturday that tho position of
| Tammany Hall was unassailable. 1t had asked the
| Syracuse Convention for some consideration III the
construction of the ticket and had been contemp-
tuously refused Although IL furnished one-iith of
the vote for the Democratic State candidates, IT'S
wishes not respected. Alderman Foster said
Oh Saturday We Will defeat Robinson and
| Tilden sure as fate. They may call Ills boltcrs
| or any other name they please, but we will show
| them that John Kelly is still sustained by the De-
mocrGcy Of the City OF New-iork. lie Will have a
| sweeping majority"
| A IIKEwAIiM SUPPORTER.
| Sheriff Reilly declines to express his opn-
| ion about the Syracuse Convention. Regard
ing ex-Governor iolimans letter he says ::
That letter is one that Democrats will
ponder over before they will condemn It's utter
anoesr Mr.. Reilly Is a present III the grip OF the
rilden men, an examination of his Office now be-
ing under way Oh the authority OF Governor Rob
n,on. Ii presumed that IN virtue OF that pressure
he has assumed a friendly attitude toward Cover
nor Robnsonh reelection The remainder Of the
ianmany Hall General Committee. al least do not
couh; upon Sheriff Reilly hearty cooperation win
them in their lAbors this FAN and Alderman Rob
crt- is already spoken of by them iavorably as a
candidate for Sheriff. Congressman :. :. Cox said
on SATURDAY. in relation to The Democratic ticket:
" think that the Democrats have determined TO
defeat Tlden and that Cornell viii b. elected Gov
ernog. Had another man than Robinson been nom
mated Dy the convention the result would have
been the other way in November"
