SHEPARD AND CITY COLLEGE.

The City College Shepard Club was recently or
ganized by the alumni of the College of the City
of New York, and they sent out circular letter
to all graduates of that institution urging them
vote for Shepard The Republican County Com
nttee last night issued the following reply that
letter:
The city College Shepard Club has sent a circu-
letter to each graduate Of that institution and
to every voter known to have an interest in the
College OF the City of New York, stating that Ed
ward NJ. Shepard is of the stanchest friends of
the college. and calling upon them to join the City
College Shepard Club. The letter is signed by
forty-two names. OF that number twenty-one are
well known Democrats, and the politics of the
others is not known, though 1t is probable that
they all Democrats and Tammany men, no
Republican would sign such letter. even though
the appeal Is made entirely regardless OF party
politics
The circular does not state the following facts: a
Republican legislature passed the bill introduced by
Mr.. Sheffield and approved by Mayor Strong, grant
ing a site for the City College but it has been
impossible TO get the appropriation for the build
ing under Tammany rule though ii was mandatory.

registration 2o39l5 The total this year is only
10.5l5 behind last year, Presidential year.
Yesterday the Democrats, driven to desperation
by the poor showing in Democratic districts in the
first three days made strenuous efforts to get out
the registration. The result that last night
every Democratic district except two showed an
increase the fourth day in 1897. Most Of the
Republican districts showed decreases over the
fourth day in 1897. This may be due the fact
that the registration in those districts largely
got out in the first three days.
There were decreases in the following Republican
districts Ist S45; WITH, l9l; WITH 8s Xth 49, XIth
422; XVIIth. 54s. and in the following Democratic

PUBLICAN DISTRICTS.

The registration in the city yesterday was so
large TO bring the total registration for 1901
in New-York County, including the boroughs of
Manhattan and The Bronx, up to 354. 022. The
total registration for the entire city is 614,SO2.
In several of the Republican Assembly dis
tricts of New-York County in which there is
naturally large independent vote the registra-
tion is nearly as large that of last year and
larger than that of 1897. This may be taken to
mean large v0.e this year for the fusion, ticket
In the lid Assembly District, mere Diver
and Foley had their hot fight at the Tammany
primaries. the registration is larger than that
of last year
In the XVIIIth District, where Dock Com
missioner Murphy is the Tammany leader, there
is increase of registration this year which
may be regarded suspicious. The same thing
is true of the registration in the XXIIld Dis
trict, where eX-Poce Inspector Thomas f. Nc
Avoy is the Tammany leader. The surprising
increase in the registration in those districts
over that of last year may mean the attempted
colonization of illegal voters.

by Assembly districts in 1897, 1898, lS'9, l9oo

WHY LABOR SHOULD OPPOSE TAMsIANY

Evidence that the laboring people of the city are
not being beguiled into voting the Tammany ticket
because OF what they may have read of Mr.. Gro
kers posters disclosed yesterday by a letter
which was received by Seth Low from Timothy
Healy the business agent of the Eccentric Fire
men, Local Union No. IS. In his letter Mr.. Healy
advances five reasons why he is working for the
fusion ticket They are as follows:
Because of the necessity for clean government
Because of the advantage to be derived by the
plain people as the result OF clean government
Because. as an Irishman. driven from home by a
tyrannicai government, he is opposed to Tammany
ard Croker
Because he believes this city will be far safer
when In the hands of Seth Low. surrounded by the
off1cals he would appoint. than when in the hands
of Shepard who he declares, must take his or
ders from Vantage. from the master surrounded
by his bulldogs. which. Mr.. Healy believes, are
Crokers natural companions
Because labor man he knows the slaughter
Tammany has waged on labor laws making a farce
of them in every city department.
Mr.. Healy said that he believed all other wage
earners who comprehended the situation would bolt
Tammany as he had done.

He says. besides. that many of the names attached
to the petition are mythical names there being no
such persons IN existence. In addition, he has
been advised that some of the names on the petit
ton are the forged names of members of the Citi-
Union; that some of the real signers are also
signers on other petitions and therefore are sub
ject prosecution for perjury. they swear TO
