secured for the factions city ticket The
Democratic managers got wind OF tnls
scheme early this evening, and nave oeen
dong everything TO prevent It's being car
ried out. So far their efforts have been
without avail. The leaders of the different
factions openly state that the election OF
their County ticket IS OF greater Importance
th an the election Of cozen National tick
cts. This Ugly feeling has been
brought about through the orders
said 10 have emanatsd from Grover
Cleveland. The government employees here
stand BY Tammany Hall. and when the
County Democracy, who nominated Cleye-
land at Chicago. heard OF this, they adopted
the only possible scheme to save their or
ganization from extinction, as the evil
dence in the possession of the County
Democracy ss 10 Cieveland's advice is said
10 be very authentic. They decline TO make
any change IN their programme. or rather
state that there is no such programme. II
any monkeying is 10 be done It
will be by the Tsmmany men.
There was a private consultation of the
members Of the National Com mittee early
today and a committee was appointed to
see what could be done to save the
slaughter OF the National ticket. This
committee has been TO work ali the
evening and the only result reached or the
only satisfaction received has been in about
these words We are right. Ii is the
other fellows doings." Nevertheless there
is great deal of unessiness in
Democratic circles tonight. Where hope
existed before il seems to be now
clear that tie ticket will be badly beaten in
the State. Even bets have been made in "a
quiet way that 3 l, 900 will be the Democratic
plurality over the Republicans in the city
of New York and that Kings county won't
give over IL 900 for the Democratic electoral
ticket. Should this be the result it would
mean the carrying of the State by the Re-
publicans, as it is confidently predicted that
their ticket will come to Harlem river with
between $1,000 and 10000 plurality. which
will give the Republican ticket plurality
between $1,000 and $4,000 in this State.
There was a great deal of betting in Wsll-st
today, and one wager of $4,000 even was
made and covered that Harrison would be
elected.
