ZENS UNION FRIENDS.
TAMMANY HALL MEN GOING OVER TO
CITY DEMOCRACY IN LARGE
NUMBERS.

Edward M. Knox is the latest candi-
date to be proposed for Mayor on the
anti-Tammany ticket. A boom has been
started for the hat manufacturer by his
friends in the Citizens Union and in the
Brooklyn Republican County Com

Large numbers OF Tammany Hall
men, some OF them with a considerable
personal following, are deserving the
Wigwam and joining the City Democ-

The German-American Municipal
League, of Brooklyn, decided unani-
mously to make common cause against
Iammany with the German organiza-
tions of Manhattan
Controller Coler refused to talk
further about his chances. but some think
Croker, in desperation, will put him at
the head OF the Tanmany ticket.
An effort was made to discredit
Michael ]. Dady on account OF a circular
letter he sent out regarding the ap-,
polntment OF referees by Supreme Court
justices, but the Brooklyn leader showed
that there was little ground for the
charge.
In the mean time Tamnany goes
steadily along, increasing the city's SAL
airy list, its growth in the last three
months being 100000.

DID SHE DIE FROM IMAGINATIONr

Atlanta Ga. Aug. u (SpeciaD.-Dr. j. }.
Knott a prominent physician here, is OF the
orinion that death by hydrophobia is often the
result of imagination. He cites the case or
Mrs Harry Boyd. well known woman Of an
Atlanta suburb, who died day before yesterday
pre- sumably from hydrophobia. The doctor de-
clares that the animal which bit her had no
infirmities save some physical injuries he re-
celved a few days previously and that it did not
communicate hydrophobia to Mrs. Boyd. He
declares that the dog had attacked a
negro woman a week previously, and that she
is now in good health. This leaves it TO be In
ferred that Mrs. Boyd. from reading newspaper
articles was led to believe that she had hydro
phobia and therefore died with all its symp-
