In the district yesterday there was
great deal of talk about his successor.
A large proportion of the Tammany
men in the district are in favor of Big

men In the Tammany General Commit

considerable property. He has never held
office. but has been active in Tammany
politics for years. Last winter, when
Diver hurried of to California and

were being fined or sent to Sing Sing at

about the only friend they had. He
