FEAR TAMMANYS REVENGE

Washington, April -(Special)-Dem ooratic leaders In congress here are not entirely satisfied with the result of the democratic convention In Albany, N. f.' tonight. The bitter struggle between the Tammany and upstate leaders over in- structing the delegates for Judge Parker will, it is feared, prevent that degree or enthusiastic unity in the city so necessary for making the state safely democratic In New York Tammany rolls up the big democratic majorities so necessary for the election of President, and that the organization should be cut off with almost no reeognition makes the outlook with the nomination of Parker rather dubious.
 A special from Albany tonight says: If the democrats of the south have been cherishing the fond hope that in the selection of Judge Parker for New York s choice for the Presideny, the democrats of this state could get together and set an example of harmony to other stases they have only nursed a deluson. To- nights convention shows the open breach in the democratic ranks growing wider hourly.
 "Tammany hall, the organization which polls such a tremendous vote, was locked in a desperate struggle which must leave traces"
 Senator Foraker scored at the White House again today and Senator Dick, the successor of Senator Hanna, again came off second best in the appointment of Charles A. Judson to the Sandusky customs collectorship and J. E. Melville to the postmastership of the same city. The appontees are both Foraker men. Judson succeeds Hanna's old friend, Ed Zurhorst, who resigned to escape re- moval, while Melville takes the place of C. A. Lethro, who while a Foraker man, is succeeded by another friend of For aker. Some time ago when Senator Dick learned of the Presidents intentions to displace sundry charge of nearly year s standing alleging slight irregularities in the management of his office were raked up against Postmaster Lehro.
 The charges were brought before the President, who as a slap at the Dick faction, determined to remove Lehro and appoint not Dick man, but Foraker man in his place. The confirmation of Judson's appointment to the collectorship will not be had at this session. Senator Dick announces. hence, the President will have to make a recess appointment.
 To further mix up the case Senator Dick today introduced a bill abolishing the Sandusky eolectorship, which, of course, has no chance of passage. The appoint ments have again started talk of defeat- ing Foraker for one of the delegates at large places to the convention, but with the support of the administration behind him Foraker Is expected to win out In the convention.
 J. Edward Addicks man Senator Ale. of Delaware, was recognized by Chairman Babcock of the republican congressional committee today in the appointment for the states place on the committee.
 This brings to a close the controversy between the Addicks and anti-Addicks factions for the place Senator Alice, representing the Addicks faction, and Senator Ball, standing for the anti-Ad- dicks faction, were both candidates for the Delaware place on the committee.
 The appointment being a victory for the Ad1icks faction has especial signifi- canoe from the fact that tomorrow the anti-Addicks republicans aold their con vention and there will be doubtless an expression of disappointment that that faction has failed to secure recognition. The antfs convention tomorrow will, nev- ertheless endorse Roosevelt and send a contesting delegation to the convention. to be seated, the President making up the difference with Addicks after the cleo tion.
 A special session of the house will be held next Sunday for the purpose of pay ing respect to the memory of the late Representative Thompson of Alabama.
