He said it is that of the whole number of
dead bodies, the amounts received and the
the amounts paid out on their account
Brown offered to put this in the evidence.
The governor objected. saying that the man
who defies the committee by refusing to pro.
duce the original books on which the report
is said to be based, should not be allowed to
get the benefit of what he says is in these
books in anv other way.
After a long discussion it was voted that
this report be placed in the hands of the
chairman, to remain until the book in the
possession of Thos. j. Msrsh, Jr., has been
produced.
The report was called for but Brown said
he had sent it to his office. A lively tilt en-

Tammany and Butler.

Much billing and cooling is going on Just
now between the Tammany democracy and
Governor Butler of Massachusetts,. It's
twenty years almost since Tammany demo-
Gratis gave the General rotten apples in ex-
change for hard words in front Of the City
Hall. Things have changed since then
changed notably within the past three years
The same Tammsny democrats-they or their
hneal descendsnts-are worshipping the Gen
eral from afar are calling on him to come and
give them 'Long Talk; are rising up
to applaud ut the mention Of his
name, and cheering him to the
echo. The first public sign of this wondrous
change was a month or two ago, when Mr.
Kelly apnounced-prematurely, AZ afterward
appeared-that Governor Butler would deliv-
er the '.Long Talk" before the society on the
Fourth of July. In making the announce
ment Mr.. Kelly explained that the Governor.
though originally a member of Tammany
had for obvious reasons been absent from the
meetings Of the society for many years, but
that all differences had now disappeared and
be was again in full communion. The ex-
planation and announcement were received
with wild demonstrations of delight.
The Governor, not being able to accept the
invitation to deliver the Long Talk" wrote
. cooing letter Of regret as full of ''tai'y" as
his Harvard speech, in which he said his Sin
cessant public duties" deprived him of the
opportunity to prepare address worthy the
society, its history or its members. ''He
"who talks to Tammany," said the gentleman
who caught Tammany's sour apple in the
Park, "should weigh well his words, for he is
before a'Ccuncil Of the Chiefs The reading
Of the letter was greeted with tumultuous
applause and at its close three times three
cheers were given for Governor Butler. All.
how times have changed! And then when
the orator of the "Long Talk wished 70 H.
lustrate the poweflessness of the press to in
jure popular idols in public esteem, no matter
with what malice and malignity it pursues
them, his more shining example, next, Of
course, to Mr.. John Kelly, the 'Boss" of the
hall and the occasion, was Governor Butler
Of Massachusetts,. And again the Tammany
democrats rose on their hind legs and cheered
him.
All thi. billing and cooipe evidently
means something. And if it means
anything IL is simply that Tammany
10 looking for Presidential candidate
and Governor Butler is looking for an
orgaufaation that wants q candidate. The
two have not exactly fallen in love with each
ether at hrst sight. They are too old and
have been too long acquainted for that. But
it is quite clear that each sees in the other
something that can be used for their mutual
advantage; hence these demonstrations of
affection. From present appearance it is
safe to say that the Tammany candidate for
the Presidential nomination is Benjamin F.
Butler. Of Massachusetts. 1t is happy
combination, too Tti5Rns.
