FIGHT FOR CONGRESS.
1t Is a Triangular One in Eight
of the Nine Districts.
In the Seventh "Sojer" Flynn May
Spoil Bartletts Chances.
Tim Campbell and z. j. Dunphy
Now Among tho Tiger Hunters.

A triangular duel with ballots is on in
at least eight OF the nine Congressional
districts in New York County. Can
didates have been set up by Tammany.
by the Republicans and by the State
Democracy.
The latter organization has taken up
three men disciplined" by Tammany,
has nominated two of them-T. mothy
j. Campbell and e. ]. Dunphy-and will
name the third-John De Witt Warner
some time to-day.
In Campbel's district. the Ninth. there
is a possibility that the nomination by
the Republicans OF Johnny simpson Will
be declared irregular and void, and that
the party will indorse Campbell In an
effort to defeat Harry Miner. the Tam
many candidate.
John De Witt Warmers candidacy in
the Thirteenth may serve to defeat the
election of Amos J. Cummings. who was
transferred there from the Eleventh.
With one or two independents In the
field the situation has become so mud
died that the election OF any ore of the
nominees cannot be foretold with GER
tainty.
Alderman "sojer" Flynn, who vas
u
ties in the Seventh District last night,
started out this morning to get an in
dorsement from the Republicans. When
asked what the outlook was, The Alder
man said:
"All the people want me. and I am
going to run whether any other organi-
cation indorses me or not"
Flynn hopes at the very least to get
even with Tammany for turning him
down, by causing the defeat of Bartlett
Tammany's candidate for Congress In
the Seventh.
This Is the list of candidates:

Miss Keenan, was housekeeper OF the
Hotel Arverne, at Arverne. L. l.. last
May, and she had a trunk forwarded
to her from this city by Krahmer's ex-
press.
After waiting some time for her
trunk she made inquiries of Mr.. Krah.
mer as to the cause for the delay in
the delivery of the trunk. She was in
formed that her trunk had been stored
in the express van in the street over
Memorial Day and that the van had
been burglariZed and portion OF the
contents OF her trunk stolen.
Miss Keenan, demanded that her loss
be made good. Krahmer refused to in
demnify her upon the grounds that II
was not his fault that the property was
stolen. inasmuch as the wrong address
had been given, and that the value OF
the articles claimed to have been stolen
was excessive.
Miss keenan, then brought an action
through Lawyer Louis Steckler, of 275
Broadway, with the above result.
