CROKER SAW DEFEAT.
Politicians Say That Is the Secret
Of His Resignation.
Forced Into the Step to Save
Waning Tammany.
Ex-Judge McQuade to BE Elected
This Evening.

The Tammany programme. as exclu-
svely announced in The Evening
World" yesterday. will be carried out at
the meeting of the Tamany General Com
mittee this evenig. The form of accept
ing Croker's resignation. which has al
ready been accepted by the Executive
Committee and the Committee on Or
ganization will be gone through again
and his successor as Chairman of the
Finance Committee named in the per-
son of ex-Judge John McQuade.
The selection OF McQuade IL said TO
be a makeshift in the interest OF the
Gilroy- Croker dynasty. McQuade has
no qualifications for the leadership of
Tammany Hall, and will merely be
placed in the position as Chairman OF
the Finance Committee to guard the
financial secrets OF the bosses.
Croker's abdication Ia regarded to be
in Mayor Gilroy's favor. and although
he says II Is voluntary It Is believed
that he was forced out. thrown over
board in the hope OF saving the ship
from sinking.
In the opinion OF shrewd political OBJ
servers, Crokers retiremnt, forced or
otherwise. Is n virtual acknowledgement
that Tammany sees defeat ahead.
