BREAK WITH TAMMANY NEAR.
New York, Oct. BIN spite OF the de-
malls, or rather the evasions, of Charles
r. Murphy, IL looks as IL Hearst is
going TO break with Tammany Hall
One OF the strongest points made
against the Democratic and Independ-
ence league candidate was that after
SO Vigorously denouncing all bosses he
should take up with Murphy.
Apparently his course in respect to
the Buffalo convention has cost him
thousands OF Democratic votes that
would have otherwise gone to him. and

TOWNE AGAINST HEARST.
washington, Oct. 5.-Charles A.
Towne viii repupiate Hearst and de-
cline to be candidate for reelection
to congress, according TO announce
ment made here yesterday by Charles
w. Slater, a friend OF the Tammany
member just returned from New York.
MIR. Towne does not regard Hearst
as a candidate for Democracy" said Mr..
Slater. He considers the methods pur-
sued by Hearst in securing the guber-
Material nomination were such as not to
entitle him 10 any consideration from
Democrats. He looks upon his candi-
dacy and campaign as purely personal
matter. in which no party man is inter
ested and which cannot call the support
from any Democrat.
Mr.. Towne intends to decline a re-
nomination for congress, because he
wants to devote his time to professional
and business matters. He is a strong
and loyal Democrat and believes that IL
lis his duty to oppose Hearst on the
score OF good government, and in order
to prevent the Democratic party in the
state of New York from being used
merely for the advancement of the
political ambition OF one man."
