VIEWS OF MR.. CROKER.
RepubIica-l "A Fiasco Assures the EIec-
tion Of Mr.. Bryan.

tIOn Of Mr.. Bryan
NEW YORK, Nov. 3.-Riehard Croker is
sued a statement today in which he said:
1T is natural that 1 should prepare be-
foFehand to estimate the value OF today's
trust parade. I have been fully advised
by Democratic leaders in the outlying
towns, and have had man at the various
ferries and railroad depots.
Putting the matter in conservative fig
ures, over one-third Of the paraders came
from towns outside of the Greater New
York. A large number of men in our own
organization were compelled TO march in
that parade and did SO on the advice of
district leaders, who thought it better fer
men TO parade than for them to lose their
jobs. Every mail has brought me COM
plants from men who were forced to pa
rade. a conservative estimate OF the two
thirds who were gathered in various parts
of the Greater New York and who paraded
shows that over So per cent of them are
Democrats and men who will vote for Bry-
an.
1.-THE political significance of the parade
is important only as showing how COM
pletely the trusts dominate the employers
of these men and how their employers are
unscrupulous enough to threaten their
employees with loss of work unless they
surrender their political independence as
far as it can be compelled outwardIy.
Il am satisfied that even respectable
percentage of Republicans will resent the
political dietation of their employers by
voting the Democratic ticket. and ] base
this statement on communications sent
to me from men who believe it a danger
Gus matter for employers to dictate TO
employees how they are 10 cast their votes
The parade today assures Mr. Bgyan's
election by an Overwhelming majority, IN
this State,
