NEW YORK GOSSIP
WEEKLY RESUME OF
MEN AND EVENTS

Especial Telegram to Evening Teller)
NEW YORK. March 5.-The open
declaration of Murphy, the leader of
Tammany Hail. in favor of Cleveland's
nomination for the presidency has
brought a trify more clearness into the
political atmosphere, but the final out
come of the complicated situation, is
speculative stage. The friends of Judge
Parker are beginning to fear that there
is trouble coming their way and it is
said that in the hour of need they have
even tried to obtain assistance from
William Jennings Bryan. Although it is
quite well known that Mr.. Bryan is
not an enthusiastic admirer of Judge
Parker so far as his views on the sill
yer question are concerned. but it is
believed that his feeling of opposition
to Cleveland will be strong enough in
him to induce him to intercede for
Parker, although the latter is not his
favorite candidate. At the same time
there is trouble brewing in the repub-
lican ranks. For some time there has
been friction between Governor .Odell
and Senator Platt and, although
truce has been patched up for the time
being. it is believed that a serious
break is sure to come. 1t is stated in
well informed circles that Odell is
pretty sure of at least twenty of the
forty seven members of the state CEN
trail committee while only fourteen are
conceded to Platt.

Always accommodating and obliging

Bryan, upon his return to this city

He was asked how the Cleveland boom
was progressing down south and an
swered with surprise that he did not
know there was such a boom; he sure
ly had not discovered any evidence of
it during his southern trip. In the
same interview Mr.. Bryan expressed
his conviction that the democratic ma
tional convention would reaffirm the
Kansas City platform. as it was the
only one, according to Mr.. Bryans
idea, that could possibly harmonic the
different factions of the democratic
party,

The Tammanites do not expect any
trouble on March 30, the day on which

at present to disturb the peace in the
ranks of the democracy of greater New

One of the members of New York's
Japanese colony, a young clerk of the
name Tel Suzukios. has started
movement for the erection of a Bud
dhist temple in this city. At present
San Francisco is the only American
city, which can boast of such a temple
as it is probably the only city in this
country with a Buddhistic population
large enough TO require the erection of
a special temple. AS to New York the
number of Buddhistic Japanese and
other fasteners is comparatively small
and it is doubtful that they would have
accomplished their aim, We're it not for
the interesting fact that there are
number of wealthy society women in
this city who have either become con-
verted to Buddhism, or pretend to be
converts to that religion. These women
have contributed literally to the fund
which has passed the 800, 900 point. The
temple will probably be built in Har-

There seems to be a good prospect
for the rapid development of New
York's subway system. When the Bel
mont syndicate entered into negotia-
tons with the city for the construction
of the subway stem now in course of
construction, a great many wiseacres
shook their heads and expressed grave
doubts as to the ACCESSIBILITY of invest
ing such enormous sums in an enter
prise the success of which, at least
from a financial point of view. seemed
to them rather precarious. Times have
changed and with them the views of
the most conservative capitalists. 1t
Is quite chara cteristic for this change
of opinion, that even before the COM
pletion of the first subway system plans
have already been submitted for sec
ond. equally extensive system. which Is
to connect the Battery with Harlem by
means of a tunnel, running mostly west
of Broadway. The plan has been sug-
gested by the Metropolitan Street Rail-
way company which intends to make a
bid for the construction of the sub
way, if it can secure the franchise. Ac-
cording to the plans of the company
the tunnel is to connect with the new
Pennsylvania railroad station and with
the station of the New York Central.
The Metropolitan offers as a special
inducement. to give free transfers from
the subway TO the crosstown surface
lines. 1t is understood that the Bel
mont syndicate also intends to make
a bid for similar subway system and
there is every reason to believe that ii
will be possible for the city to obtain
some valuable concessions from the
company that is granted the franchise.
