TO THE DEMOCRATIC NATIONAL
COMMITTEE-THE NEW YORK
HERALD, A STRONG PAR
kER PAPER,
GIVES THE DETAILS OF THE
STORY-THREE OUT OF
THIRTY-SEvEN TAMMANY
BRAVES PRESENT

Tammany turned a cold shoulder
to the Democratic National organiza
ton last night The members of the
National committee were invited tc
the Democratic club with the under
Charles F. Murphy, Mayor Mcclellan
and all the Tammany leaders. Mr.
! Murphy and the mayor sent their re
grets and none of Mr.. Murphy's close
friends attended the reception.
Only three of the thirty-seven Tam,
many district leaders attended the re-
ception and only one of the depart
ment heads in the city government
was present. All the Parker leaders,
with the exception Of Senator Cor
man, went to the club, including Da-
vid B. Hill.
Thomas Taggart, of Indiana, was
elected unanimously to the chairman
ship of the Democratic National COM
mittee, after final effort had been
made to induce Senator German to
take the place

Stock Exchange made by the Herald,
231 members declared for President
Roosevelt and los for Judge Parker.
Murphy's Note.
Charles F. Murphy, leader of Tam
many Hall, did not attend the recep-
ton given by the Democratic Club to
the members of the Democratic Ma
tional committee last evening, neither
was any of his Immediate friends or
lieutenants OF the Democratic organ
ization of New York county present.
In fact, only three of the district
leaders visited the club, and these re-
NAMED for short periods only, as if
to watch the proceedings and report
to their chief now the absence of the
leaders of the local organization af-
fected the National leaders. Those
present were Julius Hamburger, of the
Tenth district, who disappeared be- |
fore the reception really began; John
T. Oakley, leader of the Fourteenth.
and commissioner of water supply, |
gas and electricity, who left the club |
house soon after David B. Hill and
William F. Sheehan appeared, and |
Thomas j. Dunn; leader of the TWEEN
y-slXth, who spent the greater part
II the evening about the club house.
Thomas F. Smith, secretary of Tam |
many Hall, arrived late. He declined

said that the affair had been arranged
IN such short notice that Mr.. Murphy

I AMMANY HALL GIVES
A GENUINE SNUB

evenins, when he found a note from
the Tammany chief awaiting him
This note, written on the regular
Tammany note head, is as follows
"Hon. John Fox, Democratic Club.
| Dear Senator:-I regret extremely
my inability to attend the reception
tonight given by the club to the mem
| bers of the National Democratic com
mittee because of an important ap
| pointment made a few days ago which
| it is impossible for me to break.
Hoping that the reception will be
a gratifying success in every way,
remain sincerely yours.
CHARLES F. MURPHY
This note discouraged Judge Par,
her's friends, but they still believed
that Mr.. Murphy's immediate advis-
ors would be present. ]. Sargent
Cram, Senator Victor Bowling, John
]. Delaney. w. Bourke Cochran and
Tax Commissioner O'Donnell were
among those expected. None of them
appeared, however. Mayor Mcclellan
sent regrets also, and his secretary,
John F. O'Brien, who usually repre-
sents him on occasions of this kind
when he is unable to be present. was
absent.
The action of Mr.. Murphy and his
friends caused no end of comment
among the National committeeman,
who looked forward to meeting him.
They were surprised and disappoint-
ed and resented the slight which they
believed had been shown them. While
they would not talk for publication
they minated that Mr.. Murphy's ac-
ton would be remembered by them
IN the future, and that if he should
have occasion to take part in Ma
tional situation he would meet with
scant courtesy if they had anything to
say about it.
Few local Democrats of prominence
were present, the organization being
by John w Kellar, Asa
Bird Gardiner, Bird S. Coler, Judge
Foster, Joseph F. Mulqueen and 9TH
ars who We're prominent during the |

a Thrilling Experience.

George H. Richardson had thrill
ing experience last evening which he
has no desire to repeat. While driv-
ing Harry Shaw's horse in a buggy
across the bridge, he met an automo-
and required Mr.. Richardson and 9TH
ers assisting, to get it safely over. He
then drove on out to Barrackville
and back, when on his return he met
the same auto on the west end of the
bridge. The horse at once became
seized with its former fright even to
the point of unmanageable madness.
Others rushed to the rescue and as
sisted in freeing it from the buggy,
and yet it reared, leaped and plunged
until it took three men to hold it, and
withall when midway, came near
throwing itself over the railing into
the river. They did not succeed in
getting it under control until the
bridge had been crossed. Worn out
in strength, as well as strained and
skinned about the wrists in holding
on. Richardson then turned over the
horse to two colored men to take
home while he rested, and then footed
it on home, saying he would have
nothing more to do with that horse
in any shape or form. He added, that
while in the army he had handled
scary horses and wild horses. but new
er one yet SO crazed with fright, and
nngovernable> lin it's madness as this
one. Feeling relieved that none of
hem We're killed, and that he had re-
,urned the horse to its owner still
alive. he rubbed his brow and moved
1omeward resolved that he would |
nave. nothing more to do with it, even
o befriend his neighbor.

with the first hemorrhage of the

hausted her strength and vitality, cul-
minating with death in Is days from
her first attack She was of bright,
CHEEKY disposition, and hopeful of re-

her brief Illness. Her may friends,

not be. The sympathy of her many
