Tammany ACC onpaniments has spread to
B ooklyn. and the peor,e of Ridgewood,
| in the heart Of which 10 Schwaten Eall
| would not wsfm up to who .esale attack
on the man who has done more to put out
the red lights than any other man In New
| York.
MIR. Grout hustled from Schwaoen Hall
| over to Eckford Hall In Greenpoint, where
he spoke for about five minutes. and then
| sped away to Williamsburg, whore he got
an enthusiastic welcome. At this. his last
! meeting for the night in Brooklyn, the
Comptroller. BY insinlation, jabbed Hugh
Mclaughlin in the short ribs. He said
what Brooklyn would do, the rank and file
Of the Democracy Of Kings county finally
had asserted itself and the entire ticket
had been Endorsed.
What an insult to the maj ority Of the
voters in this county exclaimed Mr.. Grout,
lynn
Then he sprang sensation. He said
Some inquiry has been made as to where
Devery got his money, and want TO say
to the gentlemen Of the press that. in
day or two yin tell the people Of this town
though won't tell that tonight, will say
that William s. Devery is the stanch ally

Gil. Mcclellan. ip tow Of Senator McCarren,
didn't get to SchwaNen Hall until nearly
1890 o'clock. I. was said that he had been
detained in New York. When the two
entered the hall the entire audience arose
and cheered like mad minf1ing the cheers
with 4McCarren!" "McCarren!" "McC-a-r-
r-e-ni'
The little Colonel was quite immaculate
in frock suit, silk hat and several diamond
rings on the finger of his left hand. His
theme was education, and, in fine voice
he read an essay on German in the public
schools.
Col. Mcclellan took it for granted that
any meeting in place called Schwaben Hall
would be attended mcstlv nv Germans. so
he took fall out OF the Board Of Education
for. as he SO d, curtailine the study Of Ger
man In the public schools. The Board of
Education hasn't done 80. but what boots
facts in a hustle FOR votes?
incidentally. this kind II a speech gave to
the dapper little Colonel fine opportunity
to air his German. He speaks nuently
less, and he delivered his peroration In this
place entirely in German. In ELOQUENT
periods he told how German he would be
II elected. HIS closing sentence was
...Hier wird deutsoh gesprochen! seid
willpomen."
Which, being interpreted, means that Col.
Mcclellan. IL elected, will hang sign over
the entrance to the City Hall, which shall
! proclaim to all the world that German is
spoken there; come in and sit down.
It was regarded as a mastery piece of
eloquence, and Senator McCarren APP
plauded loudly. He always speaks Ger
man in Williamsburg
At Caecelia Hall Mr.. Mcclellan got just
what might have been expected in Mc(ar-
| rem q own bailiwick. The 500 or 900 persor 6
| in the hall cheered themselves hoarse.

The two Macs concluded their night g
work in, Greenpoint There Senator
| McCarren's friends were joined by the
legions OF ex-senator Michael Ccffey who
love not Hugh Mclaughlin. The COM
bination succeeded in giving the candidate
perhaps the greatest ovation Of the night.
In return Col Mcclellan read. to use an
| idiom, some more just like the same what
he spoke after he commenced already at
Caecelia Hall.
