In an editorial in which Charles T. Murphy,
leader Of Tammany Hall. is spoken Of the sue

prior 10 the convention in ignoring the Brooklyn
representatives, il unlikely that Murphy would
receive a welcome should he go a mission OF
peace Should Murphy so over TO see Mclaughlin,

The fusion conference committee will meet this
afternoon at the Citizens UniCn headquarters TO
settle candidates for Controller and President
of the Board Of Aldermen. vice Messrs. Grout and
FCrnes, deposed. There has Keen much speculation
and guessing to who should be put Up. Yester-
day the wise ones seemed to think that Henry
Hentz, ex-presloent of the Cotton Exchange. would
De the for Controller. John c. Kelley for
merry Internal Revenue collector in Brooklyn, also
high in favor. The choice will probably fall
one Of the two. The Citizens Union people want
Brooklyn man, and II is thought desirable 10
have a Democrat. Hentz and Kelley are both or
Brooklyn and are both gold Democrats.
For president Of the Board of Aldermen, Colonel
Robert Grier Monroe, John j. Hopper, a brother
of Isaac A Hopper. the Tammany leader of the
XXXIst. and Lawson Purdy were suggested yes
terday. Herman Riders name had been dis
cussed, but il is thought that Mr. Ridder would
stand. Mr.. Hopper is a Citizens Union man,
an Independent Democrat. The Labor people are
still canvassing Henry Georges possibilities.

is over municipal justice in the XIIth District,
where Justice Bennett sits. As told a few days ago
in The Tribune, the Citizens Union people have
advocated Alfred z. w. Seaman, who however, has
not accepted yet. The Republicans are renOminat

Union in the district formed an alliance with
Tammany. but they think that now Mr.. Cutting has
taken such decided stand on the GrOut affair.

Battle with the Stun" yesterday at the Ma
jestic Theatre. He also made some remarks
hearing on the municipal campaign. The meet
ing under the direction OF the West Side
Branch OF the Young Mems Christian Associa-
tion. His political comments were made at in
fervals in the descriptions Of the stereopticon
views which made up a great part OF the lecture.
After exhibiting series OF views showing
some Of the worst tenement house conditions
o. previous years. Mr. Riis said:
Those conditions have been swept away" he
said. through the powers given TO the Tenement
House Department. The owners know that
there is a hne OF $1,000 If they permit such con-
diuons in their houses. and. what is more they
know there is commissioner who viii enforce
the law. AND please God, We viii see TO it this
fan that administration is elected which VIII
leep enforcing the law. But if you want the
old conditions TO return. all you have TO do is
10 defeat those who believe In enforcing the
law"
Improvements made fin the public schools in
Fairgrounds and in recreation piers were shown
The lecturer declared the chief issue before the
voters this year was whether an administration
should be elected which showed real interest in
social betterment, one devoted 10 the violation
or the law for the benefit Of divekeepers and
tenement house owners whom he described as
hell hounds" who cared more for geous
gains than for the souls and bodies Of their fell
low men. he showed pictures Of clean tenement
fouses which pay per cent on the money IN

WHY HE'S GOOD TO CIRCUIT
Controller Can Let Sscord 81
Damocles Fall on Murphy.

Charles T. Murphy has particular reason
sor being mice" TO the Controller. Hanging
over Murphy and his New-York Contract
Ing and Trucking Company is a sort Of
Damocles sword. ana the Controller Of this city
is always close TO it with q sharp knife At any
time Controller Grout can cancel at least one
valuable lease Of a pier and dumping privileges
held by the New-York Contracting and Truck
snC Company on the North River. District At
.orney Jerome has begun criminal proceedings
against Murphy Cram and Meyer. the Ole Dock
Board Lodged in the Controller is the power to
cancel leases when there is prima facie evidence
that the leases were obtained by irregular
methods. James }. Deegan. so-called expert
accountant in Controller CIRCUITS office, gave
some Of these leases a coat Of whitewash that
scandslized the Controllers Office in the alb
sence OF Controller Grout in Europe Another
investigation is pending.
Murphy became exceedingly prosperous while
treasurer OF the old Dock Board. A plain sa-
loonkeeper when he went into the board. he was
literally rolling in wealth when he came out
When he went in he lived In a plain three story
red brick house. Soon after he came out he
moved into an imposing four story brownstone
fronting StuyVesant Square. The inside OF
the house is extensively furnished.
IL is absolutely essential TO Murphy's con-
sinued financial prosperity, his friends admit
that he name the next Commissioner OF DOCKS
and Ferries. That viii be J. Sergeant Cram,
chairman OF the Tammany General Committee
and Murphy's former associate in the Dock
Board IL Mcclellan wins. That will continue
the monopoly OF the dumping and towing bust
ness now enjoyed by the New-YOrk Contracting
snd Trucking Company and the Brown & Flenn-
ing corporation. The Low administration has
tried TO break I'D this monopoly by leasing new
dumps. With the old Dock Board ring again in
control any new pier lessee interfering with the
profits OF the NTurphy-Ca rfney combine would
be harassed into docility.
Mr. Murphy like his illustrious predecessor.

rage England. with 120 hired hands his pay
roll Is working for his pocket all the time.

Of an alderman in the district to Isaac A Hopper,

1t is likely that Ernest II. Wallace a young
lawyer formerly Of Nassau County, viii be nomi-
mated by the Republicans for the Assembly at the
convention tonight. Up to date Mr.. Wallace has
the moral support Of the Citizens Union men, but
the fight over alderman may ALLEVIATE this support.

Parkersburg When Hearing Of An
nuaI Visit of Guardsmen.

The National Guardsmen will gel
a warm welcome in Parkersburg. II
any of them venture out in the coun.
try the welcome there will be warm
Only different. What may happen
Is told in the following special from
the second city:
Since it has been made known
that the National Guard encamp
ment is to be held here again, special
preparations have been made by
those who suffered from their depred-
ations last year to give them warm
welcome this year. Every chicken
house for several miles along the
Northwestern Pike was robbed last
year and the track of feathers was
traced straight to the camp. Efforts
were made last year by several farmer
to secure reparation but they could
get no. satisfaction. Corn fields were
robbed last year and the farmers
east of town have heerd with con.
sternation that the soldiers are com.
ing back again.
But they will be better prepared
this year tor the marauders. A gen
tleman who came in from the pike
today says that not only are the peo
pie out that way putting padlocks
on their chichen coops, but that they
are getting out their guns and load
ing them up for use, and it will &C
hard with the National Guardsmas
who is caught trying to forage or
the farms near town this year. The
farmers have found both civil anG
military authorities helpless and
will look after their own rights thi!
year.
