York Brokers Betting on the Result.
New York Oct Notwithstanding
the quiet appearance Of the different 20.
litlcal headquarters in this city, q great /
deal Of active political work Is in progress
both hera and outside, and there is nc |
doubt that tho leaders Of all the organiaa.
tions are fully alive to the fact that only |
q week remains before the day of cleo
tion. All still express the utmost conf |
denee in the success Of their respective |
tickets.
So far as the city is concerned the
Tnmmany men place great reliance on
their thorough osani1ation, a and even
their opponents adml. tat tho full Tam
many vote will be polled The adherents
of the committee Of seycnty's ticket base
their firm belief in winning upon the CON
vietion that there VIII be, regardless d
ordinary political methods, an uprising
Of people" such as overthrow tho Tam
many rule in 1871.
Much Of tho quiet work done was III
rected toward detecting frauds In regis
tration and toward arranging to get te
the polls without fail all who are duly
registered Men who seldom take an ac
tive part in politics are laboring to make
/ converts Of personal friends and there
has seldom been o campaign in which
| there were more private political discus
sions Perhaps the most important incl
| dent Of the day was the attempt Of an
evening newspaper to implicnto Colonel
| Strong in an old matter involving Lean
| ings toward the A. p. a. and his prompt
denial of any Intentional participation in
the same.
