the Tammany chief Ex-Governor Hendricks
talks of the prospects OF the campaign with
the greatest freedom. Il think that the
ticket is daily gaining strength" he said to
the United Press correspondent. "Of course,
there are little difficulties in the state of New

nature, The laboring classes are somewhat
dissatisfied. and some of Kellys friends are
sore but they are all Democrats and they
will be all right before election day"
Mr. Hendricks letter of acceptance is al
most completed 1t will be brief, and will
not meddle much with political problems 1t
will follow somewhat in the line of his speech
to the notification committee, 1t may be is
sued on the same day that ClevelandS letter
is published. The letters of Tilden and Hen
bricks were promulgated simultaneously, and
