The tidings which Bernard J. York brought
back to Brooklyn a few days ago after his con-
fab at Lakewood with Mr.. Croker and other
Tammany chieftains have not, go 1t is reported,
been received with much satisfaction by most
Of the Democratic leaders in that city. Hugh
Mclaughlin preserves his accustomed reti-
cence, but some of his chief lieutenants openly
declare that Tammany Hall evidently intends
to treat them stability in the distribution of tho
Greater New York plums. Threats OF retalia-
ton on the Tiger, through the Kings county
Democratic delegation at Albany and later on
at the next State Convention. have already been
made. Senator p. II. McCarren is at the head
of tho malcontents and John Delmar, James
Kane and a few other powerful district leaders
are backing him In his kick for more generous
recognition than the Tammany magnates are
willing to concedo to the Brooklyn Democracy.
They are said TO be especially aggrioved over
the refusal of Mayor-clcct Van Wyck's advisers
to give BROOKLYN one of the places ON the Dock
Board. Mr.. Mclaughlin was in conference
with his lieutenants for several hours yesterday
at the Willoughby street headquarters, and It
gotiations with Mr.. Croker he will carry with
Vim a definite statement of just what the Brook
lyn organization expects and Will emphatically
demand under the new administration. 1t does
not seem to be believed In Democratic circles
hat the Brooklyn Republicans are going to cap
ture one OF the Police Commissionerships, for
which such a sharp fight is being made.

hees President or the Senate.
TRENTON, MI, Dec. THE scene at the State
Capitol to-day resembled O day of organization
Of the Legislature. Tho corridors were filled
with politicians who had gathered to congratu-
late Gov. Griggs on his prospective elevation to
tho Attorney Generalship. and to discuss the
complications over the Presidency OF the Senate
and acting Governorship. Tho Governor said
he would not resign the Governorship until after
tho Legislature had organized, and there might
DO some delay beyond that time, as he would
not retire until confirmed as n Cabinet officer.
Tho Senate Presidency was settled. Ten Re-
publican Senators held an informal caucus and
unanimously decided to support Senator voor
hoes for the presidency. which will make him
acting Governor. Senator Johnson Of Bergen
county said that the holdover Republican Sem
ators. who form a majority Of the caucus. had
agreed last spring to support Voorhees,. and he
saw no reason to change their determination be-
tached to the place. Senator Skirm agreed. He
said the use OF his name bad been unauthorized
and he would not oppose Voorhees,.
There was no consideration Of the Presidency
ators Skirm. OF Mercer. Hoffman Of Atlantic.
Ketcham of Essex. and Vreeland OF Morris
would be candidates for the place.
George A. Frey of Camden is q new candidate
man Charles n. Codding OF Union county an.
nounced that he was a candidate for Clerk Of
the House. Those usually well informed say
that Codding will bc clerk. 1t is conceded that
speaker of the House. though Porter Of Essex is
still making a fight for the place. The DISPOSE
ton of the minor offices will not be made
until the caucuses on the eve OF organization.

Increase BrookIyn's Water supply.

Increase Brookiyn's Water supply.
City Works Commissioner Theodore b. Willis
Of Brooklyn sent n long communication to May
or wurster yesterday again calling attention to
the urgent necessity OF providing for an increase
Of tho water supply and recommending the is
sue OF ST.. 1875. 900 water bonds to provide tho
required additional facilities. In defence Of the
proposed big bond issue Mr.. Willis says:
1T need not be stated here that there are no
legal Limitations when the funds arc to be used
for water construction and to this consideration
might be added that our water works are more
than self.supporting. leaving yearly a sur
plus OF several hundred thousand dollars to the
credit OF the city. Again, the issue of such
bonds could In no case be construed as n breach
OF compact toward the greater city, since the
works herein mentioned arc the result OF long
study. and their execution has for years been
contemplated as necessary 10 the safety and de-
vclopmcnt OF our. water system, We are not
proposing new schemes simply, to. make the
greater city pay for their execution,
Mr.. Willis says TINT measures should be taken
to secure an additional supply of 5.OOO.0OO gal
Ions within ninety days. aud that brooklyn is
seriously threatened with u water famine In the
not far distant future unless prompt action is
taken. Like many other pcrplcxing Brooklyn
problems this will probably be left as n Legacy
to the authorities OF the Greater New York.
