Marty Reese, the custodian of the City
Hall, was surprised last evening when
thirty men. most OF whom were strangers
to him, made their way silently into the
Adermanic chamber. When he investi-
gated he found that they We're most Of the
1ammany members. elect Of the New Board
of Aldermen and that they had come To
the City Hall to hold "A caucus and find out
where they stood. The Tammsny men
have been making efforts to win over to

One OF the Aldermen reported that a

"Mr. Fornes, says. Il am told, this ran

contest his right and the Republicans are
not going to lot him have his way If they

II was decided that unless the plans are
