TRACY WILL SWAMP LOW.
LETTER FROM THE CANDIDATE TO
HESITATING REPUBLICANS.

Tammnny Candidate Has the snRllest
Chance OF successfully Talk OF = "DeAl'-
Low Machine CollapsinE-CuttinE's Letter.
The Hon. Benjamin +. Tracy, candidate of tho
Republicans and gold Democrats for Mayor OF
Greater New York, decided yesterday to writo
. letter to Republicans who have been
rather inclined to vote for Seth Low. Gen.
Tracy has ascertained that certain Republicans.
in their anxiety to beat Tammany Hall. have
been misled into believing that Mr.. Low is q
stronger candidate before the people than him
self. Here is Gen. Tracy's letter to such voters:
DEAR SIR: l have heard from some of your
friends that you are opposed to Tammany Hall,
but that you have not, as yet. made up your
mind for which anti.Tammany candidate you
will vote. l desire to address 10 you an earnest
personal appeal for your support, on the distinct
ground that no other anti-Tamnany candidate
than l has the smallest chance OF success, and
that my chance, on the other hand, is moro than
excellent.
1.-THE most careful and searching canvasses
have been made in every election district Of
New York and Brooklyn, and nearly every one
of the registered voters has been personally
seen. The results OF these canvasscs enable me
to give you my personal assurance that, in any
event, my vote will be immensely larger than
that OF any independent candidate. and probably
twice as much. do not make this statement
lightly nor in the nero effort to catch q few
votes more. 1 make it in the sincere belief,
created by abundant proofs, that my election is
