trict Primary in DOubt-Little Change
In the Executive Committee Likely.
will Devery win in the Ninth" was
asked of Charles F. Murphy Yesterday
afternoon.
Mr., Murphy was sitting in the leader s
chair at Tammany Hall. He was looking
as cool as the day would permit, and if any
thing was troubling him he managed to
conceal II well as the district leaders of the
Wigwam came and went, bearing their
whispered messages to his ear. Mr.. Muir
ply looked up and answered
Il don't know. But do know that
whether he wins or loses, he is not going to
get in here, and no representative Of his will
get in so long as am here and can prevent
il.
Il have heard that Devery has made a
deal with Louis Munznger. and that il his
ticket wins in the primaries tomorrow the
plan is to send Munzinger here as Devery's
man. He cannot get in. No representa-
tive Of Devery will be seated in the execu-
tive committee of Tammany Hall. Under
the rules Of Tammany Hall the executive
committee can select some one from the
general committee of the Ninth to repre-
sent the district on the committee, and that
will be done as it was done last winter"
Almost every Wigwam leader saw Mr.
Murphy yesterday morning Because the
primary contests have little bearing on his
own power in the Hall Mr.. Murphy was not
so vitality interested as he was year ago
According t o the reports he received yester-
l,,x oct Al -, -.
to be little change in the executive COM
mittee.
Mr.. Murphy was told by his lieutenants
that Battery Dan Finn would win in the
First He was assured that the combined
Goodwin and Bowling forces would prevail
over Devery in the Ninth. The Nineteenth
sent in conflicting reports. The candidacy
Of Philip A. Morrison there leaves the con-
test in dispute, with the chances favoring
John B. Sexton. Mr. Murphy's bent is
presumed to be the other way, as Mr.. Sex
ton is brother-in-law of John F.. Carroll.
w. j. j. Kenny who is managing the cam
palgn Of Philip A. Morrison, said last night
that there was no truth in the report that
Morrison and Sexton would combine their
forces in the make up of the primary
ticket, and that Morrison intended to stay
in the contest 10 the end. He admitted
that Mr., Sexton had gained in the past
week, but said his gains had drawn from
Hagan, the other candidate, the former
warden of the Tombs
Although Mr.. Murphy is supposed to
have lent his influence to Thomas +, Rush
in the Invent ninth district, the nforma-
ton that he got last night was that Joseph
f. Mulqueen would win as easily as John
F. Carroll did last year. 1t was said that
Mr.. Murphy had come to that conclusion
himself within the past twenty-four hours.
The Rush followers hold out stubborny
and Maurice b. Blumenthal said they
would bet 81 900 to 500 on their man.
In the McAvoy-Dooley fight in the
Twentythird McAvoy's election is pre-
dicted. In this campaign the candidates
have gone merrly at each other, freely
charging State prison offences.
Isaac A. Hopper told Mr.. Murphy that
he'd win without an effort in the Thirty
first
