a triangular duel with ballots is on In
at least eight of the nine Congressional
districts in New York County. Can
ddates have been set up by Tammany. |
by the Republicans and by the state
Democracy.
The latter organization has taken UP |
three men "dsciplined' by Tammany. !
has nominated two of them-T notify |
J. Campbell and e. J. Dunphy-and will
name the third-John De witt Warner
some time to-day
In Campbelrs district. the Ninth, there
is a possibility that the nomination ty
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 one of the
nominees cannot be foretold with GER
tainty.
Alderman Sober" Flynn, who was
nominated for Congress by the O'I3rien-
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 / 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.

Chairman Charles j. Faulkner Of the
Democratic Congressional Campaign
Committee, went to Democratic State
Headquarters this morning and after a
talk with Chairman John Boyd Thacher
Issued the following appeal to the var-
Gus Democratic factions to harmonic In
the matter of Congressional nomina-
tons:
Forty days ago, by reason of dis
satisfaction at the slow action OF Con-
Very general misunderstanding OF the
character of the bill which was ulti- |
mately passed, we had but little hope Of

anxiety which / feel in reference to the
recent action in this city IN the nomina,

our ability to retain a working majority
we have necessarily counted upon the

but may endanger and imperil the
supremacy. Of the national party In the
election of 1896. To-day the state or
New York, II the election was to be
passed upon by the House, would cast
its vote for Democrat to occupy the
Presidential chair. Nineteen OF Its
thirty-four votes are Democratic. A
loss of two Congressman in this State
would give the vote in 1897 OF the State
OF New York to a Republican for Presi-

thrown into the House OF Representa-

For these reasons, charged, as ] have
been, by the party in conducting the
campaign for Congressional candidates,
appeal to all elements, factions and di-
visions of the Democratic party to unite
and harmonize on the Congressional
tickets. and to do no act which will
naturally tend to weaken and endanger
the National supremacy OF our party"
