Richard Croker Philosophers Upo2 ar
form" Administration.

New York, Sept. 7.-Richard Croker
was a passenger by the American line
steamer New York, which arrived at her
dock early today. Mr.. Cookers fellow
passengers have come to the conclusion
that he is to be the Tammany Hall cam
didate for mayor Of Greater New York.
During the voyage many efforts were
made 10 draw Mr.. Croker out on this
subject, but not only TO the newspaper
correspondents, but TO his most intimate
friends on board did he decline to state
mis- purposes. The understanding among
Mr.. Crocker's friends, however, is that
he is very strongly inclined to permit
the use OF his name as a candidate for
mayor, though ne is naturally unwilling
that an announcement should be made
TO this effect before he has had an op-
portunity 70 confer with his lieutenants.
81 have not the slightest doubt that
Tammany will carry the greater city by
$4,000 votes and upwards said Mr.
Croker to the special correspondent Of
the Associated Press.
New York never had one reform ad-
ministration after another. One such
government appears to be all the people
can stand in one decade. The present
so-called reform administration has been
chiefly noted for it's increase Of the tax
rate accompanied by higher appraise-
ment. IF there has been any correspond
ing improvement in the quality Of the
government the people have not discov-
cred liz
