ONLY $1,000 FOR MCCLELLAN
~ NEW YORK COUNTY on THE
ROSY TAMMANY FIGURES.
Vote Of 1901 Ne, Oluti0nizrsi by Some II, ely
Guessing These Are Not Figures 10
Het On-Just offered 10 Mr.. Murph.
~ Incense by the District Leaders.

Leader Murphy had his district leaders
| before him in Tammany Hall yesterday
afternoon and got their informal estimates
OF the purai'ies in the thirty-tiye Assembly
districts which make the boroughs af
Manhattan and The Bronx These made a
total plurality of 1850 for Mcclellan
This, N he got it, would elect him over any
thing like the expected vote in Kings, where
the conservative Republicans do not go
far beyond the 5000 which Low got there,
although there is much optimistic talk OF
49, 900 to $1,000 for Low across the Bridge.
Many of the leaders said that the figures
they gave were mere guesswork as they
had not yet called in their election district
captains whose calculations Rec down 10
the smallest units of political division.
In each Assembly dist riot the captains are
to report to the leader on Friday and these
figures will be turned in to Mr.. Murphy on
Saturday. when the executive committee
will meet again, Mr., Murphy gave notice
To the leaders last night that he did not
want to bc deceived and wanted real figures
The attitude Of the district leaders was
in something OF contrast. Big Florrie
Sullivan, when asked about the Eighth
said: -One thousand for Mcclellan. Any
part OF SO 900 to bet that we don't fall be-
low that figure. See'" The Eighth gave
Shepard only os plurality two years ago,
Isaac A. Hopper Of the Thirty-first gives
his district TO Low. who got about two-
thirds of the vote there in 1901. but he said
Eve bet 81 600 that I'll elect my candidate
for ASSEMBLY"
Danie! f, Mcmahon. who is chat, man CT
the executive coilrrttse Of 1amnany Hall
said he didn't hke 70 give any figures lo-
day. but would prefer to wsit until Satur
day. "What,' Exclaimed Leader Murphy
III mock ampzcmeNt. fchait man Of the
executive committee OF Tanmany and
cant say how your district is going?' Then
McAlGhon pitched on 1850 for his district
the Seventeenth. All he could do in 1901
was $40.
1t will be observed that tho banner vote
for Mcclellan il credited to Charles F.
Murphy's own district, the Eighteenth
That is about tho vote it gave TO Coler last
wear As Col Mcclellan comes from that
district as we'll as Leader Murphy, Chairman
j. 70 geant Cram OF the general committee
of 1aInmany Hall, and Frank ODonnel,
treasurer OF the Hal, it is not thought singu-
lar that Mr. Murphy should claim ii by some
thing like the vote of 1902, although he
carried it by only $500 In 1901.
The estimates give eight districts TO
Low, the rest to Mcclellan. Franz Good
win, who beat Devery in the re, cut Fri
maries in the Ninth by combining Dowling's
vote with his own. thinks Mcclellan will
get us much as 500 there, but shaves it
down to 800, to be conservative. John
F. AheaIn. the candidate for Borough
President. claims his own dist riot, the
Fourth, 'or Mcclellan BY 1000. Mayor
conceded to him by 8 600; but the Ninet zenith,
where he had 5000 last year, by only $500
this year,
