TAMMANY ON THE RUN.
2. C. NORRIS SAYS CONTINUED EFFORT
WILL BRING SWEEPING VICTORY
FOR ENTIRE FUSION TICKET.

Robert c. Morris, of the New-York Republi-
can County Committee. said yesterday: a. have
trustworthy information from several sources
that Mr.. Croker and his assistants In the man
agement of the Tammany campaign in a
mental condition closely approaching intense
alarm. They realize that the fusion ticket will
carry Kings County by a large majority and
that only the most desperate efforts of their
organization tc keep down IA heavy
for the fusion ticket in this county
Within a few days there has developed
strong feeling against the entire Tammany
ticket. The lodging and quibbing of Mr.. Shep-
ard has finally reacted. and has tended to d.
rect strongly the attention of the voters
to the rest of the ticket The more that is
known Of the character OF the Croker candidates
for the county and borough Offices the weaker
they become.
Mr. Shepard's trivial attempt to make Gov
ernor Odell appear responsible for the retention
OF Murphy and Devery has been accepted by
the public at it's true value. 1t is a campaign
trick indicating only the desperate straits to
which the Tammany cause is reduced Mr..
Croker's candidates cannot dodge the issue OF
DeveryiSm
1 convinced that continued effort on the
part Of all citizens who are engaged in this fight
for decency in municipal government in this
last week and steadily up to the moment when
the counting of the votes commences will re-
suit in a sweeping victory for the fusion ticket
from top to bottom.
1t Is earnestly to be hoped that no citizen
enlisted with us in this cause will leave the
fighting ranks for instant. We know the
character OF Tammany Hall. and expect that or
moment. There should be cessation In the
work until the last ballot has been counted next
Tuesday.

HUMORS OF THE CAMPAIGN

FRIENDS WANT TO SHARE DU Walls BET.
H. c. Du Val is backing Low and the whole

Senator Depew's office, and among the Republican
politicians, too, who back their judgment with
money about election time, that Du Val never
loses a bet Many wait to what he does, and
wager with Senator Timothy D. Sullivan. Sullivan

In explanation of the above letter we would say
that ''Ponsonby'' is the secretary OF King Edward

the presidents of the leading English Scotch

Is interesting indicating the friendship existing
between King Edward and Richard Croker and
