WILL HE SUCCEEDl

The politicians have a theory OF their
own with regard to Mr. Croker's sud
den return to New York. They say 1t
Is hictory repeating itself.
When Croker evaded the Fassett Com
mittee ambitious politicians began to
plot for his overthrow as the Tammany
boss and sought to push him out OF the
leadership. just as he had elbowed out
John Kelly when the latter was sick and
unable TO resist
Croker Immediately returned home and
succeeded in thwarting the conspiracy
1t Is said now that the close friends of
Mr.. Croker. led by Lawrence Dclmour
discovered Immediately after his de-
pnrturc that there was likely to hc a
movement of an important character
directed to the complete reconstruction
Of Tammany on n reformed basis, and
to the overthrow of all those in the or
gan!Zation TOUCHED by the corruption
exposed by the LeXow Committee. They
say this would mean the overthrow of
all Mr.. Crolter's friends.
This is not what Mr.. Croker's re
tirement" meant. He still desired to be
the power behind the throne, and the
greatest OF all power-the financial
power. They say Mr.. Croker comes back
ns he returned to destroy the former
conspiracy in the days OF the Fassett
Committee.

FIVE HUNDRED IN DANGER.
Fire in the Sky-Scraping Masonic
Building, Chicago.


CHICAGO, June 25.-Five hundred
visitors to the Masonic Temple roof gar
den, on the twenty-first floor of the Ma
sonic Temple, were given decided
fright yesterday, and panic was mar
rowly averted.
A few minutes before o'clock fire was
discovered in the rubblsh-room. on the
first floor, adjoining the shafts of the
freight elevators, and for few min
utes 1t looked as though there would be
a serious consequence.
Prompt action on the part of the fire
men prevented serious damage to the
building. and the fire was confined to the
rubbish-heap and the felt wrappings of
scores OF steam and gas pipes which run
to the roof. There was no smoke percep-
tible on the roof until the flames were
discovered pouring from the doors of
the freight elevator shafts. There was
but little excitement In the building, ex-
ceDt on the roof.
There the manager realized that there
might be danger of panic with fright
full results, and he at once went to the
theatre. He told the people there was a
fire in the building, and that as a mea-
sure of precaution they had better go
down to the ground.
Seven elevators were running and the
people were all taken down In a very
few minutes.
