TAMMANY'S CAMPAIGN FUND.
Estimated That 1t Will Not Fall Short of
S2,5OO,OOO.

GsumaCeu Ihat 1t VIII Not Fall Short of
S2,6OO,OOO.
NEW YORK, July 22.-Tammany's cam
paign fund this year will fall little short
OF $2,5o0,OOo. 1t may even exceed this
sum if the leaders decide that they need
the money and deem it wise to exert
their power to collect it.
Here is the preliminary estimate of
the funds which will fill the Tigers
campaign chest:
Assessments on office holders. 81 200, 900
Assessments on "proteced" in
'eresIs ..................... Zoo, 600
from other sources. 50O,O
These figures are regarded as mod.
crate by men who are familiar with
Tammany's sources of income. The
city spends between 10000, 600 and
; sc, 100000 year in salaries and wages.
The usual rate of assessment is 5 per
cent This, of course, cannot be en-.
forced upon the entire salary and wage
schedule.
Laborers and school teachers, who
absorb large amount, are practically
exempt. Much of the money goes to
boroughs outside of Manhattan and the
Bronx, and is assessable in Kings,
Queens and Richmond by the organiza
ton there. About 10000, 900 goes to
officeholders in Tammany's jurisdiction
who can be reached by the political
assessor. ="
