Charles F. Murphy came back from
p,,Galo Yesterday morning, and going d.
.oo,lv 20 the Fourteenth street headquarters
.omained there until the early afternoon.
vonv Of the district leaders called on him,
one If them being Thomas e. Rush Of the
Twontv-ninth district, who bolted the Tam
Ianv caucus at Buffalo when the resolution
- enforce the unit rule was introduced,
o,d ubo voted against the nomination Of
William r. Hearst. Mr.. Murphy and Mr..
p,sb talked together for some time, and at
,ho end of their conference said that they
Nod been comforting on campaign details
.nd that the name OF Mr.. Hearst vi a not
brought up.
Mr.. Murphy professed to regard with In
a;garence the boiling Of Hearst by Mayor
Mcclellan and other Democrats, who In the
lost TWO DAYS nave declared that, while they
aiu vote the Democratic ticket they will
clt Hearst at the polls.
NO good Democrat has bolted Hearst
Mr.. Murphy said, laying stress on the adj
iectiye, when the announcement OF Mayor
Mcclellan was brought to his attention. as
xell Al the resignation Of James J. Martin
from the Tammany Hall executive com
mittee, Il have not read Mr.. MoClellsn's
statement. but 1 have been told all about
II and | have no comment to make on It."
Mr.. Murphy admitted that while he had
hoen able to prevent the seating Of the
Mcclellan leaders and delegates from the
seventeenth, Nineteeth and Thi rtieth dis
,Lcts in the Buffalo convention, he would be
rowerless TO stop Ross Williams Of the
seventeenth and James Ahearn OF the
Nineteenth, the two Mcclellan men elected
a, the primaries to the leadership Of those
districts, from nominating their candidates
for the Assembly
MFR. Williams and Mr.. Ahearn,' Boss
Mummy said, will be able to nominate
their candidates for the Assembly be-
cause they have received their certificates
of election from the Board OF Elections
and they will nave to be regarded Rs the
leaders of their districts, despite the action
Of the Democratic State convention. But
there is a different situation up in the
Tbirtieth district. Maggie claims the cleo
ton over Cowan, but the returns from the
election districts are not yet all in, and for
that reason the Board Of Elections has
refused to issue a certificate to Maggie.
That means that there will be a contest
when the convention for the nomination
of an Assemblyman Is held.
Mr.. Murphy said that there would PROB
sblv nor be any formal notification to Mr..
Hearst OF his nomination. In the excite
ment following the nomination the oon-
yention adjourned without appointing a
committee on notification.
The date for the Tammany Hall ratthca-
tion meeting has not yet been fixed, and
II ia doubtful IL the meeting will take place
before the third week In October. Mr..
Hearst has promised to attend the meet
ing and to make a speech. IL Will be the
FIRST time that his voice has ever been heard
in Tammany Hall. So far as Mr.. Murphy
and Secretary Tom Smith are aware. Mr.

Rordan's place at Albany NNorHan

Of Sullivan.
The successor to William r.. Hearst in
the Eleventh district will be either Francis
Burton Harrison or Charles v. Fornes. Mr..
Murphy has determined that both, these
men shall be nominated In normally SAFE
Democratic districts. Mr.. Harrison Is q
liberal contributor to the finances OF Tam
many Hall and a nomination for Congress-
was promised to Mr. Fornes as a reward
for consenting to step aside last year and
