organization of the Tammany general and
executive committee on DECEMBER q.
II any changes are made in the mem
bershfp of the committees, they VIII be
changed to strengthen the hold of the
Sullivan combination on the organization.
few of the old-time district leaders
in Tammany have been talking since the
election about a reorganization Of the
committees. They have said over and
over, something must be done" This
has been echoed by the minority faction
opposed to Sullivan and Croker, but moth
comes to elect officers for 1902 the squire
will hand up the list of names, and his
state VIII go through without a hitch.
Croker seems determined to force the
nomination of Perry Belmont for Con
gress in the Seventh although i is well
known that he is not the first or second
choice of any Democrat in the district.
There is a normal Democratic majority
of 5000 or more in the district, and the
feeling in the district is so strong against
Croker's methods, that there is already
talk Of boiling his candidate
The Republicans expect to nominate
Cornelius Vanderbilt In such race, the
defeat Of Belmont would be direct slap
at Croker
