CROKERS GREAT AND GOOD FRIEND
IN INVITING GUESTS TO ITS
CELEBRATION

The committee appointed to name a time and
prepare a programme for htting celebration OF
the thirty-hfth anniversary of the Manhattan
Club has reported. The ceiebration will take
place on Saturday night There will be a large
number Of invited guests and appropriate exer-
cises will be held. William c. Whitney has
taken a great interest in the celebration and
has consulted with the committee. While it is
said that there is nothing political in the occa-
sion, yet great many people will regard it In
that light. The activity Of Mr. Whitney has
been construed by some to mean that he intends
to re-enter politics by way of the Manhattan
Club. great deal of interest has been mani
Tested as to who the invited guests are. 1t Is
known that great many prominent Democrats
all over the country have been asked to attend
and participate in the celebration. II was said
definitely last night that ex-senator Hill had
been invited. When those who are managing
the affair asked if Mr.. Bryan had been
hidden. silence ensued. 1t is indicated that Mr..
Bryan has not been asked.
So far as is known now. the Manhattan Club
has not. as an organization. decided to take any
part in the municipal campaign next year. 1t
may be recalled that when Richard Croker took
charge OF the Democratic Club he declared open
warfare on the Manhattan Club That club was
at the time in the old Stewart mansion. at Fifth
fly and other causes led to decline in the pros
perity of the club. Many who desired to shine
IN the favor of the Tammany boss deserted IL.
The club finally decided to move from it's
pensive quarters into the house vacated by the
University Club when it moved into it's new
home.
The removal was followed by an Improvement
in the affairs Of the organization. With reduced
expenses and IN cosey and convenient quarters.
the club began to gain IN membership and bank
account. 1t Is said that in point Of membership
and financial solidity the club was never better
of than 1t is to-day II is the home of sterling
Democrats. not allied with Tammany Hall out
and out organization men. The better class OF
and IT has been said that the club would next
year take active part in the municipal cam
paign. supporting an independent Democratic
candidate for Mayor allying itself with the
other anti-Tammany forces.
The fact that ex-senator Hill has been asked
to attend the celebration Saturday evening, and
that William ]. Bryan. Mr.. Croker's great friend
has not. is taken TO indicate that while the club
may not organization take active part
In the municipal campaign next year. the sen

HEBREW REGIMENT FORMED.
NEW ORGANIZATION TO BE ADDED TO THE
STATE NATIONAL GUARD.

The initial step in the organization Of
Hebrew regiment for the New-York National
Guard was taken last night at the armory OF
the 69th Regiment at Third-ave. and Seventh
st. For more than year the promoters Of the
plan NJ d. Gcttlieb and Emil K. Fireman. have
been securing the names OF Hebrews who would
be willing to become members Of a regiment
Of militia. They were led to undertake the work
by certain statements that have appeared from
time to time concerning the lack of patriotism
Of the Hebrew race. In the last year. Mr.. Fire
maa says, more than fifteen hundred names
have been placed on the rolls OF this distinctive
Iy and exclusively Hebrew regiment. The regi-
ment is said to be the only Hebrew regiment
in the world to-day. few years ago an at
tempt was made TO organize Hebrew regiment
for the Pennsylvania National Guard. but the
effort was unsuccessful, and the organization
finally become mutual benefit society.
The present effort in this city seems TO prom
Use success. About five hundred men attended
the meeting last night. gave inr-thsir names
and expressed their willingness TO enlist in the
National Guard and observe the rules govern
ing that organization. The meeting was opened
with speech by Mr.. Fireman. in which he
referred to the record Of the Jewish volunteers
IN the recent war; and told the men that al
though the regiment was to be made up entirely
OF Hebrews II not to be looked upon as
race movement giving an indication Of
racial feeling. but that 1t patriotic move
ment pure and simple.
The G9th Regiment armory was used last
night through the courtesy Of Colonel Duffy. of
that regiment For the future. however, Apollo
Hail. at No 124 CIinton-st.. has been taken. and
the men viii drill there bimOnthly. the first drill
being held on Monday evening. January a.
Officers Of the Sth Regiment and the 69th Regi-
ment have volunteered their services in helping
the new men to learn tactics. For the present
Mr.. Gottlieb viii act as colonel and Mr.. Fire
man adjutant OF the regiment. Com
pany. regimental and battalion officers will be
regularly elected soon possible.
Mr.. Fireman said that Acknowledgement Hof-
man was friendly TO the project Of Jewish
regiment but that he feared that the cost of
equippirg the men would be bar 20 favorable
action the part OF the State authorities, so 1t
was proposed to obtain authorization to form
regiment and then raise fund among the Jew
ish people OF the city to defray the cost of
establishing the organization. Mr.. GOttlieb is to
meet Acknowledgement Hoffman on Thursday
morning at the State Arsenal.

General Wheaton reports that four hundred

Most of the time of the Philippine Commission
is devoted to the Tariff bill Judge Taft
said to-day that, generally speaking. the new
rates
1T will be essentially a tariff for revenue" he
remarked but to some industries that are al
ready established will be given protection. The
Commission is not considering the question of
the constitu':onality of taxing United States
products. The precedents have been established
in the case of Porto Rico and by the Military
Government of the Philippines
The bill requires the washing of cotton goods
so as to eliminate the clay used by European
manufacturers which increases the weight. This
