A meeting of the Tammany Hall
General Committee called for the purpose of
determining what action should be taken in
the pending Presidential contest, was held
on the evening of Sept IL. The hall was
crowded with spectators. John Kelly called
the meeting to order, and ex-senator Foster
was made Chairman. After dwelling upon
the ancient history of Tammany Hall, how
it has never swerved from its allegiance to
the Democratic party nor faltered in its
support of the candidates nominated
by and in the principles enunciated from
the platform of the National Demo-
cratic Conventions, the report says that in
respect to the candidates now before the
Democracy of the nation: 1--WE acquiesce in
the win of the majority of the representa-
tives of the party, although we believe that
will TO have been unwisely expressed. There
is but one alternative left to us-to sever our
connection with the Democratic party. Thiswe
cannot and will not do" Tho address goes on
to criticise some of Gov. Cleveland's vetoes,
recounts the contests OF the sachems in past
Presidential contests, and the harsh treat
ment In the Chicago convention, and con-
cludes with the following: "ResolUed That
we, the Democratic-repubican General
Committee of the city and county of New
York, in Tammany Hall assembled, hereby
ratify and indorse the nominations made by
the National Democratic Convention held in
Chicago on July 10. 1SS4-for President,
Grover Cleveland, of New York; for Vice
President, Thomas A. Hendricks, of In
diana, and hereby pledge ourselves to an
earnest and cordial support of the candidates
so nominated" The reading of the resolu-
ton was followed with applause. mingled
with Kisses. Ex-senator Grady in a speech
bitterly denounced Cleveland, and in closing
his remarks stated that he should support
Benjamin f. Butler. Gen. Spinola advocated
the adoption of the resolution in q strong
speech VIM. Bourke Cochran followed in
an eloquent speech seconding the motion.
The calling of the roll on the address and
resolution was then proceeded with, and re-
suited in their adoption by an overwhelming
majority. The vote stood-SlO yeas, 81 nays.
On motion, the vote was made unanimous.

Cunning for the Mayor.
Carter Harrison met with singular ex-
perience in this city this evening. At q
pressing invitation of the Democrats of
this place he came here from Mount Pu-
laski, and took up his quarters at the Com
mercial House, where he held an in
formal reception. Among the callers was
Col. J. M. Hough, formerly of Chi
cago, and bitter Republican partisan,
who wanted to bet Carter he would not be
elected. The Colonel pressed his offers to
bet, and at last became personal and was
removed from the room. He went home,
changed his coat, and took his six-shooter
with him, intending to interview Carter
Harrison again. Before he gained admis-
sion he was arrested and placed in the Gala
boose. The greatest excitement prevailed,
as the Colonel is man of wealth and
standing in the community. Friends
secured his release, and all is serene again.

REPORTED EXTENSION OF THE
SANTA FE ROAD TOsT L0UIS.

O6H1A PA hO4dO 1OO1. AOO1O.
The story Is revived by 9 gentleman
who has recently come from New York
that the Atchison, Topeka & Santa Fe
railroad is to be extended across the
state Of Missouri to st. Louis. aft was
reported In railway circles in New York
last Thursday" says this gentleman,
shat the Santa Fe folks were going to
extend their road from Kansas City to
ST. Louis. The route has been partially
surveyed" ..
For q long time it has been understood
that the AtchIsOn, Topeka s. Santa Fe

into st. Louis, and surveys and plans
were made to that end without number,
but nothing further was eyer done. It

general agent of the Santa Fe road denied
the report. Vice President Touzalin
stated that the company had not pro-

tempt to do anything IN that direction
they would not make any effort to keep
their endeavor secret. If the company
