cRoKER's EFFORT TO DESTROY IT HAS FAILED.
AND IT MAY RIVAL. HIS CLUB

CROKER'S EFFORT TO DESTROY 1T
AND IT MAY RIVAL. HIS CLUB
1t was announced yesterday by a prominent officer
OF the Manhattan Club that the club as al orpani-
zatlon' would take no part In the municipal cam
paign next year. Many OF the members as ndi-
Viduals. and some Of them men Of great influence
will take an active part in the MavoraItv cam
paign. and ally themselves with Democrats anti
Iamnany organizations. Richard Croker's effort
to destroy the Manhattan Club and build ND the
Democratic Club on its ruins has failed The
Democratic Club is exceptionally prosperous but
that is because Croker has demanded that every
of1ceholder and every person whom Tammany can
dominate must Join the club. The Democratic
Club has long list of members and a comforta hle
bank balance, owing to Croker's exactions but as
II mas prospered so has the Manhattan Club EN-
Controller Ashbel p. Fitch. a member of the Board
OF Governors Of the Manhattan Club said vester-
day:
There will be no politics in the clubs celebration
OF ITS thirty-hfth anniversary next month This is
no move TO organize against Tammany Hall We
nave prospered In the last TWO or three years. In
fact, we better off than We're before Richard
croker gave his official sanction to the Democratic
club, and we feel like having little celebration.
OF course. the members talk politics when
they get together-that is a favorite toDic of club
nen-but no movement of anV Kind '{s contem-
plated "
Three years ago the Manhattan Club was crippled
financially, and many of its members went over to
the Democratic Club in order TO gain Croker's
favor. The Manhattan then moved from it's quarters
IN the Stewart mansion the old clubhouse
vacated by the University Club when it moved into
its new home uptown The club rapidly paid off
It's debts, and increased its membership. Nearly

EHE APPROPRz4u0M.

IL was stated IN the last issue Of
The Gazette that the appropriation
committee Of the Legislature had
decided to give $50. 900 to the In
dustrial Institute. Since that an
nouncement was made the com
mittee has altered the bill to
meet the revenues of the State.
The appropriations for the various
institutions have been curtailed.
Instead Of $50, 900 the school at
this place will get SAG, 1000. OF
course, it is to be regretted that it
was necessary to cut down the ap-
preparations, but the friends of the
school have no reason TO complain.
No doubt the bill was amended be-
cause the State was unable to meet
the amounts originally allotted to
the different institutions. Consider
ing the sums given to the schools
hospitals and asylums throughout
the State the Southwestern Louisi-
ana Institute has Jared we'll.
With the known business ability
of the management of this institu
ton there is no reason to appre-
bend any trouble for want of ade-
quate funds.
In this connection The Gazette
wishes to compliment Representa-
tive Overton Cade for his good and
fruitful work in behalf of the school.
Mr.. Cade, who is member of the
appropriation committee, was. BY
reason of his wide acquaintance and
experience, in a position to ably
represent the interests of institution.
He was seconded BY Senator A. O.
Clark, Representative Durio and
Senator T. J. Liable, who gave him
all the assistance in their power.
