STAMPEDE TO HEARST.
ReUoH from Tammoauy Strengthens
Bronr Republicans Hopes.

John F. Cowan, TaInnnany leader Of the southern
part Of the 34h Assembly District reoafved severe
political jolt yesterday. when Joseph G. BaSsnan
and a number of other Tammany captains Of the
district stampeded the Hearst forces. So wide
spread Is the dissatisfaction in the district over the
city and county tickets that further thinning Of
the Tamrnany captains ranks is expected, and in
consequence the prospect of Republican victories In
many Democratic strongholds is much brighter
than It a week ago.
It was learned last night that eight members Of
the general committee of the Mohawk Club, the
Tammany Hall headquarters Of the district, had
resigned, and were openly supporting the candi-
dacy Of Mr. Hearst. Mr. Rassman IS the presi-
dent Of big Catholic society IN the Bronx When
asked last night why he had left the TaInTnany
ranks he said:
enthusiastic Hearst man The vote that
Hearst will get in Cowans district viii. am
sure. surprise the Oldest politicians, who think
that Mcclellan will easily retain his chair at the
City Hall
Two years ago Mcclellan got in the Assembly
district 1522 votes and Mayor Low $751; This is
the way some of the former Tammany henchInen
who Hearst workers thought last night
Mcclellan. 700; Hearst 5000. and WINS, $500. If
Mcclellan gets only 500 more votes than WINS in
the Bath Assembly District, looked upon as g.
Gibralter Of Democracy. Mr. WINS may have, 1t Is
thought, a nice big majority over Mcclellan In

MADOO TALKS POLITICS.
Good Thing for Police to Let ALone,
He Tells NezU Men.

Politics formed the burden Of the talk by 20
lice Commissioner McAdoo yesterday, when he
delivered the final address to a squad of seventy
FIVE men, who had just completed their course IN
the police school, and started out as real police
men at 6 o'clock. The Commissioner told the
men that he did not know politics in the per-
Torrance of his police duties, and he warned
them also not to let political affairs bother them
He went on:
Do your duty, matter what IL IS, IN the face
of the strongest political situation. II any poll
tician bothers you TO me and tell me Of II
and 1 will see that the politician gets his Just
deserts. Political matters have nothing TO 90
with your duties. and 1 want all Of you 10 let
political matters alone.
have been told by politician that police
man can control five votes on the average sup
pose we reduce that to three votes That would
bring the total up to 5000 votes. Now. If the
Police Department goes into politics as an or
ganization and stands in the attitude of saying
TO the political parties Of the city: Here are
25OOO votes you can have Election Day II
you do what say-if you will give US a re-
duction of hours. If you will remove me shoo-
fly system, If you will do away with the penal
ties of which Mr. McAdoo has indicated the
minimum, etc" Now, in a sharp contest for
the control of this immense municipality, fear
there are some political organizations who would
think a long time about getting these 2oVOO
votes. And the time might come when the
police would control the city.
