fusal to Fuse.

His Inconsistency.
WOoDRUFF's REPLY

Another exchange Of 1.-The goods" be-
tween the parties to the Murphy-Hearst
Buffalo deal was effected in New York last
night. Tammany Hall nominated its slate
of candidates for the judicial offices and
gave Mr.. Hearst share. Mr.. Hearst
ma med three of the thirteen candidates, and
had his way about keeping another aspirant
off whom Murphy wanted to place on the
ticket
Murphy and Hearst dickered all day over
the distribution Of the prizes, Lewis Nixon
and w. Bourke Cochran being the commits
sioners who arranged for the delivery of
the goods. Murphy was very anxious to
have John ]. Delaney appointed one of the
supreme court Justices but Hearst would
not hear to it. Delaney had been asso-
ciated with the legal end of the Mcclellan
administration, and had incurred Hearsts
hostility.
The Slate.
Murphy fixed his personal counsel, Peter
A. Hendrick, on the slate, and Hearst put
his henchman and political assistant, John
Ford, on When the arrangements were
completed, the Tammany Hall judicial con-
vention was notified and promptly ratified
the selection without question. This Is the
slate.

MI. Hearst's tatement.
Mr. Hearst issued a statement yesterday
upon the refusal of Chairman Woodruff of
the republicans to effect fusion with the
Independence League on judiciary ticket.
The Hearst statement said in part:
THE action of the Independence League
In endeaVoring to secure a non-partisan
Judiciary ticket was prompted wholly by an
unselfish desire to satisfy the wishes of
those public-spirited citizens who realized
the nominations for the judiciary should be
lifted above the political considerations
which affect other nominations. In its eff
fort to secure this result the league sug-
gested the intervention of the State Bar
publican party by the indirect emissary'
to which Mr.. Woodruff refers must have
been made through this source.
Apparently, Mr.. Woodruff, director in
insurance companies, has been instructed
by Mr.. Cortelyou. collector from the in
surance companies, to refuse the republic
can support to a non-partisan and non-cor-
poration judiciary.
1t is regrettaDie Tor the general welfare
that the republican party should insist upon
not only corporation state ticket and a
corporation campaign manager and cor
poration fund collector, but also a corpora
ton judiciary. 1t is natural, however, that
the party should have been urged to take
this position by the gentleman who pro-
tected the election thieves and received a
denomination as a reward, and by the gen.
tleman who collected the corporation cam
paign fund in the last general election.
