The uppermost topic among Democrats
yesterday was the expulsion OF Fi,e Commits
soner Henry i. Purroy and Police Justice
Andrew ]. White from Tammany Hall. The
ardent followers OF John Kelly said that Tam
many had saved itself by expeilna Messrs.
Purroy aud White. but the friends Of the aI-
PEELED men declared that Tammany had COM
mitted suicide. The neutral men in Tammany
Hail deprecated tho action Of the Committee on
Oraanlzntion. They believed. however that tho
expulsion OF Messrs PurroY and White had
prevented rebellion in the organization which
might have resulted in the forced retirement OF
John Kelly from the leadership. The general
Tammany opinion is that. although mort ot tho
members OF Tammany in the Twenty y-third and
Twenty fourth Assembly Districts will nd7ubt-
edly 90 out OF the organization. their example
will not be followed in other detric;s.
We. OF course. expect TO lose men In the
districts controlled by Purroy nnd White"
conspicuous Tammany man eaid. The hs'ht
ia In their districts. aud their friends cannot be
blamed for quitting tho orkanization. But there
will be little no detection In the other AS
ssmbY districts. Several members Of the Com
mittso on Organization from districts othcr
than tnS Twenty third and Tweniy-!ourth voted
against the sApuls,oa of Meesrs. furroy and
Whi;s. but refused to leave the meeting with
thoss gentlemen. I, Is for their interest to re-
