Uncle Dicks hatband is no name for the
queerness OF the yan-Croker- Hill-Coler

four separate and antagonistic games be-

hackers Is Bryans. Nobody cares button

William Z. Curtis. the well-known corre-
spondent of the Chicago Record, is man
who tells the truth. 1t is his stock in

The $4,000 Richard Croker gave Tom
Taggart, and which the latter brought
home in his gripsack two weeks ago, is
to-day safely planted in of the In
dianapolis banks and will not be touched
until the day of distribution. The news
of this windfall, first published in the
Record, created intense excitement among
| the local Democratic leaders. Many of
them have taken the trouble to come to
Indianapolis to ascertain the truth of the
story and If possible TO get line on their

got a cent. That story would have been
accurate four years ago.
Mayor Taggart denied in the Journal that
he had received money from Croker, and
the question of veracity is raised between
| Mr.. Curtis and the Indiana committeeman.
| If Mr.. Curtis is correct. Mr.. Taggart has,
or had, few days ago, $4,000 of cash
which he obtained of. Tammany leaders or
agents. OF this Mr.. Curtis is positive.
