tirue it's victories In New Yo-k.'
The Globe says: when the fortunes
Of the Wigwam are in the ascendant
shameless corruption rules supreme.
Judge and police alike owe secret aiie-
glance to an authority with far greater
power OF making or marring their for

With reference to Mr.. Croker's mani
festo after the election. the Daily Tele-

CROKER'S PERSONALITY.
Sketching the history OF the Tammany
society, the Globe adds: when Croker
became boss 1t had regained much OF It's
lost influence. Croker is perhaps the
most notable Tammany product of our
time A splendid organizer and an in
domitab.e worker, he possesses TO a
marked degree the taciturnity which
made Parnell so great a leader. Steer
ing clear OF the personal vanities or
traditions Of that worthy regime and
has made Tammany once more a politi-
cal engine Of the first magnitude
The Daily Telegraph says: MI
Croker may sleep better, unhaunted by
the nightmare OF indictment and a pros
peot of the penitentiary. Ii Is great
victory for the most corrupt organiza-
ton in the world, and we hesitate TO ex-
cept even Turkey. But an analysis OF the
figures and an examination OF the
circumstances OF the election tend to
show that it belongs to that class OF

The election of Mr.. Low would have
been decisive. The election OF Judge Van
Wyck is only an episode in the
Campaign that Is just beginning. The
Citizens Union is, indeed. beaten, but
it's defeat is of a nature that promises
victory in the not very remote future.
"The Republican cause has met with
an ominous disaster In every quarter.
II was permissible to hope year ago
that Organism was not only defeated,
but also disabled. Unfortunately, II Is
impossible to feel the same confidence
now. 1t can hardly be doubted that
Bryanism will raise its head again un-
der it's last champion, or under another.
Before the next President is electeu
there will be no lack OF material for
agitation, as the Bryanltes profess to be
free traders, and are dissatisfied equally
with the fiscal and the financial policy
of the present administration. The out
look Is not very cheering, either for the
United States, or for those having busi-
ness or political dealings with that coun-
try"
A PARIS VIEW.
PARIS. November 3.-The Journal ces
Debats says: "Once again Is displayed
the incapacity of the honest citizens OF
New York to organize and shake OF the
dominion OF the political intriguers, who
exploit and dishonor municipal politics" 4"
DOESN'T LIKE THE IRISH.
BERLIN. November S.--The Tageblatt,
commenting on the New York election,
deplores the victory of Tammany as IL
places the undesirable element Of the
irish on top. and concludes: THE victory
In Greater New York will have a sinister
effect throughout the United States, for
n means that the awakening desire for
municipal control has revived after a
setback"
