ties Building. and there the final strug-
gle will take place.
There was a report current downtown
to-day that II the Grace men couldn
have their way they would bolt the con-
ference and name a ticket of their own
ON this ticket, II is rumored, Recorder
smyth will be nominated to succeed
himself,
Tammany's willingness to combine
with the Grace Democracy on Mayor
atty candidate is shown in an utterance
of James j. Martin, of Tammanys COM
mittee OF Eight. In moving Tor posi-
ponement of the Tammany ana Assem-
bly conventions Mr.. Martin said delay
was desirable ito ascertain what coulu
be done towards a general union OF al
Democrats In this city in the interest
of the Democratic State ticket.
Tammany's apparent willingness no"
IN make n combine" Is susceptible oil
several explanations. Not the least
plausible is that II Is willing to give
the Grace Democracy the Mayor H. by
.uob n deal, IL could regain control oil
the LEGISLATURE and elect Democratic
Governor. Unless law were passed
moyaI. the present lot OF TammahS
ofice-holders would continue IN once,
and tne power Of a reform Mayor would
be nil. with a Democratic Legislature
and a Democratic Governor OF ram
many's choosing. 1t is not to be expected
that Mayors Power OF RemoVai
bill would be permitted to become law
This is said to be one of the argu-
ments used by David b. Hill win inc
Tammany leaders to compel comph-
ance with his plans for harmony
II was learned to-day that at the
meeting of the Xxx. yesterday the name
of Mr.. Strong for Mayor was consid-
cred, but was dropped because OF an
announcement that Plat would not
, agree to have him nominated 1t IL
stated to-day that Plat did not agree
10 such an arrangement until late last
night.
1.-THE Xxx. will now probably accept
the suggestion that Strong be nomi-
mated" said a member this morning,
"and It is very likely that the Grace
people will then go ahead ana nominate
a ticket of their own"
I'VE expect to go into the conference
OF the anti-Tammany organizations THIS
afternoon" said Chairman w. NJ. X.
Olcott, of the Republican Conference
Committee, land agree upon union
ticket which we can place in the field
at our County Convention this evening.

ever, to name the head OF the ticket
he continued, such a thing is not to be
thought Of Our instructions are abso-
lutte upon that point.

The pruning knife Of the Pennsylvania

Of use. It has been cutting right and

"Who will be nextf"
Commencing last night six night
telegraph offices on the Delaware road
were closed and the men in charge re.
ceived notice to look elsewhere for work
By this alone the company will save
about $500 in salaries per month The
Offices closed were Farnhurst. Towns
end, Cheswold, FELTON,, Bridgeville and
Laurel. The tower on the New
Castle cut off where two men we're en-
ployed has also been closed. This will
delay train going to and from Edge Moor
about twenty minutes Instead Of the
switch being thrown from the tower the
trains will now have TO stop and let q
man 90 ahead and throw the switch and
then wait until he comes back and joins
his train. Trainmen are much dissatis-
fed with this rule There are several
men around the station in this city who
have been told that their services will
not be needed after q certain time.

What is the use to state the un-
pleasant symptoms of dyspepsia.
The nutrition of the body depends
upon the food. Yet the food may
be right and the body not well
nourished. That's only true how
ever, when there is impaired diges-
tion-dyspepsia-afecting the nu-
tritive functions, affects the gen.
eral health so much. That tells
why dyspepsia means other illness
so often. There is a harmless re-
lief of dyspepsia, general tonic
