Richard Croker was at Gravesend yesterday. and
I his racetrack gains were so vast that he eager
70 put more huge bets on Bryan The third race
was won by colt named Colonel Padden. A few
weeks ago Colonel Padden was ridden by the
Tammany Ice Trust jockey Spencer with the iciest
methods imaginable That day the Tammany Ice
Trust did not declare dividends on Colonel Pad
den. Yesterday an urgent Tammany whip"
out o Colonel Paddeu. and the Tamnany Iegtous
gathered from far and near. Every man Of them
had his bank roll with him. No faro bank no
! dramshop, no dive, no Joint, poOrooU within
hundreds Of miles of the central office the Tam
many Ice Trust failed join the Tammany army
led by Field Marshal Croker. who laid out the plan
Of campaign. The air 9utteriug with flags
and on every banner these words We're emblazoned
IN letters Of living light: we Wish TO Remain Free
People, and We Vote for Colonel Padden in the
Flatlands Stakes
The Tammany vote carried Colonel Padden TO
1r1umPh-which is much more than the TammGny
vote viii do for Bryan and Stanchfeld. Mr.. Croker
and his hattalons of intimates and faniIiars put
50 much money on Colonel Padden and took IN
enormous profits that the Democratic Office hold
ers need fear further calls for political assess
ments. Tammany's gains on Colonel Padden were
50 immense that the National. State and local
committees will have funds IN excess for the rest
Of the year. and Croker-Bryan-Sta Van
Wyck ensigns will soon De hanging at every corner
from Sag Har0or TO DUnkirk. And the name OF
Colonel Padden should be high in air on every
standard.
This colt, Colonel Padden, on which the Croker
cohorts plunged so boldly is in solid truth worth
about the total OF the Tammany weekly assess
Uent on a single poolroom He is a black OF
Charaxus. and his dam Is Meta Russell Colonel
Padden, for whom ne is named. IS q Tammany Of
fee holder whose intellectual caIibre Is 1T match
for that OF Battery Dan. The Tammany plunge
this colt was a convenient and effective means Of
cheating the public, and that is the chief end and
aim Of Tammauy's existence.

race which was won by the Tammany trick colt
Colonel Padden- lebanon Unplaced- How
much money has Hidreth turned over n sixteen
to-one Bryan silver for the Tammanv- election fund
this year? Il has been e season OF stupendous
prosperity for Hudreth. Since ne retired from the
place OF adjutant-gerersl OF William c. Whitneys
colossal turf forces M 5udreth mas been so
cesstul with his own horses that the whole world
wonders why he did not win races with Mr..
Wnitney's imperial stable which contained so
many superb racers Of the highest class! Why. on.
why?
\ syndicate Of American capitalists has taken
up the German loan. Should Russia, Spain, italy,
Uruguay or Patagonia dasre borrow a few
millions in this country Mr. Hdreth meet the
demand. Il is not necessary TO send agents 70
negotiate with banks, bankers, trust companies.
insurance companies or Wall Street hnancers. Mr..
HIIdreth has the funds hand. and he is ready
and willing I'LL the empty treasury Of any bank
rupt nation. Even the Sultan Of Turkey can borrow
ten millions Of Turkish plastres or Smyrna sequns
from HiIdreth by merely signing MS note Of hand
IN zone in climate II no planet so Tar
known has any mortal piled UP such pyramid o.
fortune IN a few months on the turf as Hlcrerh
has auassed since he retired from the direction
Of the magnificent Whitney stable. Even Mr. " hit
ney may possibly & little puzzled 70 observe the
marvellous accumulation Of riches by Hudreth IN
so short period.
