Tsmmany Organ Bolts Hearst.

Denouncing w. r. Hearst as traitor
to democracy, the Tammany Times, the
officisl organ Of Tammany Hall, New
York, for the past IA years, yesterday
bolted his nomination.
The announcement on che part of the
weekly journal which depends upon the
support OF the rank and file of Tammany
for it's existence accumulated the defec-
ton of the democratic voters in New
York. In a statement which is to APP
pear in its next issue the Tammany
Times will say:
ave are asked to indorse and give
support to candidates who represent q
party organized to so divide democracy
as to insure either the acceptance OF
another party's candidates or compel
democracy's defeat.
"And all this for the advancement Of
deserter's ambition at the expense OF
honor and good name Of the great party
of the people. In this crisis we decline
to follow where traitor leads.
"We have combated every enemy out
side the party. We now oppose the ene'
mics within, feeling that no right-think-
ing democrat can give aid or encourage
ment to any candidate who was a NUM-
cipal ownership man last week, the in
dependent of all parties yesterday, the
seeker after democratic support at Buf
falo, and the denouucer of Tammany,
whose nominating power he so eagerly
sought and bought by secret bargains
made without regard to anybody's in
terests but his own.
"Real democrats have but single
remedy-vote for true democratic can.
didates for other Offices, but where this
is impossible, as for Governor, vote Tor

E1-PresIdent Cleveland on the situation

Ex-President Cleveland on the situation
Ex-President Grover Cleveland says
the present political situation is Gan
sfflictive.one." He declares VIM. r.
Hearst's nomination for Governor OF
New York was calamity for the demo-
cratic party, and asserts that Hearst does
not represent the principles of democracy
The only living former president also
avows his belief that Hearst victory 10
New York would not result in making
Hearst q formidable candidate for the
presidency, and concludes that the emer-
gency must be met by every man vot-
ing according to his own conscience.
Mr.. Cleveland's statements were made
10 an interview at his home in Prince
ton, N. j., where be was requested to
give an expression of his opinion on the
campaign in New York
"Every voter of the State must settle
with his own conscience in determining
his action in this emergency" said Mr..
Cleveland; "but cannot but regard the
democratic situation presented to my old
associates in New Ybrk as an affective
one."
at has been suggested in this cam
paign that supporting the party nominee
is not supporting democracy" he was
told. "Will you state whether, in your
opinion, Mr.. Hearst is crats"
al certainly never dresmed that he
represented the principles of democracy
as l understand them" was the reply.
He declined to say whether, if q
citizen of New York, he would support
Hearst or Hughes. Mr.. Cleveland said
be- agreed with Mr.. Hughes as to the
chief issue, adding:
81 think the question was stated very
concisely by Mr.. Hughes In bis
speech at Lyons, when he said al at
tempt is being made to marshal the
forces of discomfort in an appeal to pas
sion, not reason"
"What would be the greatest danger
should Mr.. Hearst be elected Governor
Do you b,lieve the presidency would be
menacedY'
Certainly not: the people would have
him two years and be through with him.
Do / think his election would be q
calamity? Why, the whole situation ia
an absurdity. His nomination alone
was a calamity to the democratic party.
1t placed thousands of good men who
believe 10 democratic principles and
who rebel against voting for a repub'
llcan in terrible situation"

The jamestown Monument Bids.


Bids we're opened in the Office of tbc

Washington yesterday Tor the erection
Of the monument for which Congress has
appropriated $50, 900 to mark the site Of
the landing OF the first settlers at James
town. Tue monument is 10 be 100 feet
high on a pedestal about 100 feet square
The shaft will be between 80 aud 40 feet
square at the base, tapering like the
Washington Monument to u smaller d.
meuslon at the top. There were only
two bidders-the Norcross Bros. Com.
paDy and the Harrison Granite Com
pany. The bids ranged from about
$40, 900 To s95, 900 for granite monu'
ment, while one bid for marble monu-
meut was for 500, 900. The lowest bid
was that of Norcross Bros. Company, ia
erect the monument of msscoma granite,
light gray stone, for $40, 100.
As all these bids are so far in excess
of the appropriation available for the
work, Supervising Architect j. Knox
Taylor will revise the plans of the monu
ment with view to reducing the speci.
ications for ornsmentation and approach
80 that one or the other Of the two firms
will undertake the york for $50 900. II
Is probable that the monument will BIZ

expensive than granite and there is &C

FEARING the exposure OF the metneo
OF curing hams, in which process 1t Is
alleged that the beef trust. through sub
sidiary concerns, uses boric acid in vio-
lation of the law, the four representatives

ton of an agent of Dairy snd Food
Commissioner Warren, yesterday waived
a hearing aud each was held under $ooo
bail for Court. The agent had bought
hams from several of the depots Of Ar
mour & Co., and upon analysis each
was found to contain a certain percent
age of boric acid. Based upon this In
formation, warrants we're issued for four

senting the defendants informed the

Disinherited for Marrying Gentle.


Disowned by his family because he
married gentle, DR.. Barney j. Drey-
fuss, of the faculty of Cornell University
Medical College, is happy, nevertheless.
Cards announcing the marriage were
sent out yesterday, but DR.. Dreyfuss ex'
poets no response from his wealthy
relatives in Paducah, Ky, for he was
informed sometime ago that il he mar
ried woman not of his own faith be
would be disinherited.
Or. preyflsS's wife was Miss Claire
Burke. She was a trained nurse, and
their romance bean in hospital. 1t
extended over period of four years,
during which time the Doctors family
made all sorts Of efforts to forestall the
marriage.
Mrs. Dreyfuss is the daughter OF the
late Major John Burke, internal revenue
collector for the Southern district of In
diana. She is Roman Catholic.
Four years ago she went to the Louis
Vile Hospital, in Louisville, Ky, as a
trained nurse. DR.. Dreyfuss was round
ing out his medical education there on
the hospital staff. 1t was case OF love
at first sight, but the doctors parents
objected strenuously to his marrying a
Christian. Two years ago the doctor
entered Cornell Medical College
and a few months ago again tried to
secure his parents consent to his mar
rage to Mics Burke He was unsuc'
cessful however, and the marriage wa
set for November 8. He became III,
however, and the ceremony was per-
formed quietly. The doctor has re-
covered and returned to bis duties.
