astonishing performance to take place in Senate

its political opponents without there being aeai
between party leaders in progress

Croker and Plat disclosed to-day. Senator
Mcmahon introduced bill providing for the cleo

been handed to him by District-Attorney Fellows
and sad> that Mr.. Fellows thought there ought TO
be an additional Judge OF the Court OF General Ses
sions in view OF the magnitude OF the courts busi
ness Thus Senator Mcmahon without disguise re-
veaed the Tammany origin of the bill Senator
