papers. If committee from tho meeting should walt
upon him and ask him TO appear there no would not
think Il proper to go. 1t IS understood that MI
Hewitt will not accept any nomination until after
the Tammany Convention has placed Its nominee IN
the field.
The Tammany leaders say that they are not dis
mayed at the prospect of Mayor Ifewitts renomina-
ton. 1t is what they expected all along They
assert that Tammany Hall would not support him as
on candidate.
Commissioner Croker said " Tammany will under
no circumstances agree on Mayor Hewitt as united
Democratic candidate for Mayor. We could better
afford to be beaten than TO win with him. We object
to Mr. Hewitt on principle. His declaration that
foreigners ccmlne here should pass a much longer
probationary term than now before becom ng citizens

THURMAN MAY NOT WRITE A LETTER.

Columbus, Ohio Oct. 2.-It seems probable that
Judge Thurman will issue no letter of acceptance,
owing to his speech OF acceptance to the Nofilca-
ton Committee and the extended expression of his
views in his speeches during the campaign. The
Judge has for a long time had In mind what he would
say in he should write letter, but his time has
been so fully occupied It has been impossible for him
10 put It on paper. While he has not stated that he
would write letter Of acceptance he has frequently
remarked that no docs not tho necessity. Tho
statement of tho early publication OF snch letter has
been made several times but in has The Judge
stated positively when It would be ready. Judge
Thurman will leave here for Washington on Friday.
