Of tho Martin Warwick faction over the en-
phatic endorsement by tho city Republican Or
ganization of q candidate to oppose David Mar
tins brothor.in-law, William J. Roney. for Tax
Receiver, is such that there is talk of getting up
q third candidate. who will divide the forces of
the opposition. A meeting. 1t Is understood.
was held this afternoon within the shadow of
the City Hall, at which this movement was dis
cussed. Tho only name mentioned is that of
William II. Rhawn, for years President of the
National Bank of the Republic, now undergoing
the process Of merger with the Fourth Street
National Bank.
Without tho expedient of a third candidate
Roney's chances Of succeeding hims"lf for an
other term as Tax Receiver are very poor ac-
cording to present appearances. Public senti-
ment has undoubtedly been aroused by the
greed Of the ruling factor in local politics as
manifested in the gas works grab. and this feel.
ing has found expression in o prompt and spon-
taneous movement to break the control of the
Martin arwick wing OF the organization over
the machinery Of the local conventions in Feb
ruary.
The gas lease may wreck the Martin machine
IN Philadelphia when the people are heard from
at tho municipal spring elections. Some sort
of device, such as a third candidate, seems to be
about the only chance for Roney. and even then
there may be pretty nearly an even chance for
the nominee on the Democratic ticket.
