Resolution received with applause Ex-
Senator Grady was loudly called for. As ne
arose he was cheered. He said: rise
principally for the purpose ofsaying thave
taken no side in support Of, or agsilat any
candidate, nor viii take side untiffam-'
many Hall in its meeting has spoken. !
am involved in no deal, nor am | engaged
in transferring any vote other than my own
was never in market in political cam
paign and do not propose to 60 IN now.
shall take a side in this selection OF can
didates as my notions OF honest uncompro-
missing fearless man hood and sterling un'
adulterated democracy dictate and main
tain it as | understand it. The resolution
before the committee calls for the appoint
ment of a sub committee to decide Tam
many's position. When that declaration
is made | will try to show those who mas,
auerade to-day under the name of Demo
cracy that they have proved themselves to
be the enemies OF FIVE million man who
make up the party.
IHave No Desire
to dictate the reasons which actuate my
course. Twill follow to the far end OF the
course have begun because
| began it for conscience
sake alone. If there he man who torgives
an enemy, am one who follows an enemy
through thick aid thin, returning fire for
fire until one or the other goes down. l
nave no personal grievance with Governor
Cleveland. shall speak from the record, and
| will ask to be ostracised from all decent
society if l cannot point to corruption
stalking straight to the door Of the execu,
tive mansion and knocking at the door and
coming out of the door, with all that corrup-
ton sought at the expense Of the people; if
cannot prove that bribes known
to fail inthe assembly in 80 were
placed so near Mr.. Cleveland
that if he does not have money, be can get
it at any time, if l cannot prove that |
am what | profess to be. Grady was
frequently interrupted by applause. The
resolution was unanimously adopted and a
committee composed Of district leaders ap-
pointed and the meeting adjourned
