No Deal with the Reps.

New YORK, November 1&-The Star
(regarded as the Tammanv organ) says:
The Tammany Hall committee OF
seven, appointed on the part of the
Tammany organization to watch the
canvass of the electoral ticket, held a
long conference this evening with the
chairmen of the Democratic National
and State committees, to positively deny
the existence of any deal between Tam
many Hail. and the Republican Alder
men affecting the Presidential count.
Ex-senator Forster, chairman of the
delegation, satisfied the represen tatiyes
of both the committees that the Tam
many supervisors would permit no ac-
ton in the board which would lose the
Democratic electoral ticket single
vote. He further volunteered his ser
vices to the committee, TO act jointly
with the national ard State representa-
tives, and to carry out, faithfully, any
instructions which they deemed would
be beneficial to the national ticket.
