1t is true, the Hill faction has made
several clumsy and absurdly awkward
attempts to bring about reconcilia-
ton. But. Hill either does not under
stand the real situation and Murphv's
position in the matter. or he merely
wanted to have appearances and took
good care to make his basis of recon-
CITATION unacceptable. Hill is too old
a politician not to have perfectly
clear understanding OF the actual
status. Those who know him. are con-
WINGED, that Hill really does not want
reconciliation, being confident. that
he can win the fight in spite OF Murphy
and Tammany hall. In that ne is prob
ably mistaken and this fatal error NAV
cause the ignominious defeat of Judge
Parker.
