Low Grout and Fornes VIII have separate offices

NIessrs Low, Grout and Fornes were present yes
terday morning at the meeting of the advisory

general the work of the campaign. Lieutenant
Governor Woodruff who represents the Re
sablican County Committee of Brooklyn. was not

Colonel Willis l. Ogden was appointed permanent

CROKER SAYSITW WAS PLOT
FOR COLER-NO ENTHUSIASM
FOR HIS TICKET.

The Tammany ticket is in the field. and the
leaders have been ordered to get their districts
in line to roll up big najorities. There is lack
of enthusiasm however. The record of Ed
ward NJ. Shepard is not conducive to Tammany
enthusiasm. One leader, asked last night II
Shepard would not be hard the organization
il elected, said tersely: Think what the other
fellow would do" That is just the situation.
Tammany fear Shepard. but they fear Low
more. They believe that Croker and the or
ganiza lions of Kings and Manhattan, upon
which Shepard depends for his election. will
have some weight with Shepard if elected
From Low they expect nothing. That is
the reason Tammany will work for Shepard,
but there is no enthusiasm for him.
Mr. Shepard was in the city yesterday, but
the Tammany leaders prepared for the cam
pagn They visited the Democratic Club, and
talked with Croker and outlined the plan of
battle. The conferences which took place
minded one of the conferences in the house Of
mourning when plans for the funeral are being
perfected. Croker had little to say. and the
leaders less
Last night Croker went to the theatre with
party of friends and apparently pushed politics
aside for the time. He arose early yesterday
morning to meet those who called at the club
and to hear what they had TO say about the city
convention. When ne came downstairs and was
asked about his health he said, Il am feeling
first rate"
What do you think of the demonstration last
night for Mr.. Coler?"
Mr. Croker shut his jaws firmly. looked rather
angry and finally answered, That demonstra-
tion for Coer last night organized plot"
How did the people who cheered for Coler
get into the convention hal?"
There were five thousand tickets distributed
indiscriminately." replied Mr.. Croker vehement
w. Whenever you find three hundred men In
one spot and every one of them knowing each
other you form an opinion Of what 1t means
very quickly"
who do you suppose put up the job?"
II leave that for you gentlemen to guess
This thing is not unusual 1t occurred four
years ago. when the Dayton men raised an up
roar. The demonstration last night was some
thing like II at Kansas City.
Mr. Croker asked what he thought of the
criticisms directed him. and he replied: After
the county ticket has been named l shall nave
about And l think l can make myself
understood plainly"
John F. Carroll DR. Cosby. Senator Plunkitt,
Andrew Freedman and Asa Bird Gardiner were
he thought of the ticket and the demonstra-
tion. and he said: Don't talk TO me. My mind
is filled for Robert Muh for place on the coun-
ty ticket
But there is deep disappointment among the
leaders of Tammany Hall the nomina ton
of Shepard. They won't talk for publication.
but they virtually all say privately that 1t is a
weak ticket.
The opinion prevailed that Mr.. Croker was
more interested in the county and borough
ticket to be nominated on October 10 and that
the organization would leave Mr.. Shepard 10
his fate Who will be nominated for the places
There many candidates in the field, but
there is no certainty as TO any nomination

SHEPARD'S FLOCK LEATING HIN.
1T is SAID THAT THE BROOKLYN DEMO
CRATIC CLUB WILL INDORsE LOW

IT is SAID THAT THE BROOKLYN DEMO
CRATIC CLUB WILL INDORSE LOW
Disguised at his surrender TO Richard Croker
the Brooklyn Democratic Club, which Edward
NJ. Shepard the Tammany candidate for Mayor,
helped to organize WILL at meeting TO be held
next week, throw Mr.. Shepard over and indorse
last night by the president of the club. Charles
II. Eastmond There probably viii be an inter
esting session when the contemplated action is
discussed. many OF the members have been
strong personal friends OF Mr.. Shepard and
have followed his political instructions a child
does the teachings OF father.
Mr. Eastmond. Daniel F. Moynihan. Frederick
w Hinrchs and number of other members Of
the executive committee have held several ses-
sfons since Mr.. Shepard deserted his anti-Tam-
many principles, and, having thoroughly
vasse6 the situation. have decided that their
conscienees TO be considered rather than their
friendships.
The Brooklyn Democratic Club in the past has
been independent, but only independent Mr..
Shepard has been. Through all his political
changes the club has followed him. Last fall
the club was for Bryan. Four years before II was
against Bryan. Now, however the club WILL it
is said, refuse follow its old leader. AS much
as the members of the club have admired Mr.
Shepard they loathe Tammany and Croker more,
and are grieved to think that he would give HIM
self TO the enemy
