New York. Aug. 21-Charles F. Mur- phy. leader of Tammany Hall today said that he had not observed any sentiment for the nomination of Dis trict Attorney Wm. Travers Jerome for governor by the democratic state convention. but there was he said, plenty of sentiment for w. R. Hearst MT. Murphy declared that he had not committed to any candidate but ir was the rule of Tammany to be guided by the sentiment of the organization, and he would be guided by it at the state convention. MT. Murphy said the Tam many delegation to the convention would be bound by the unit rule,
 District Attorney Jerome tonight gave out the following statement: Ut is no surprise to me to find Murphy practically declaring for Hearst. The only reason for my taking an active part in politics this year is to carry on the fight of last year, which was a fight to free the people and parties from the nomination of just such po- l.tical panhandlers.
 Birds of a feather flock together . and when a person intellectually ster- ile, socially vulgar and morally ob- tuse' insults the decent people of the state, irrespective of party, by seek ing q nomination of a political party by advancing dollars and not ideas. and by methods akin to those of the blackmailer, no thinking man can doubt where Murphy could be found"
 'I should fear I had lost all my ideals if I found men of this type sup porting me, under absolute compuI- sion. If l ever come to make any in- tlucnce in the democratic party. 1t would be used to drive out of 1t bosses of this type. Both the democratic and republican parties have long enough been disgraced and dominated by men of this type controlling party organi- zation.
 Party organization was created or iginally to render effective the will ot the people. The servant has become the master. and the executive machin- cry, controlled by small groups of sell fish and unusually corrupt men, has been used to deprive the people of the parties of their political freedom.
 The fight is not to destroy parties Parties are essential to the proper working of our political institutions The fight is to free the parties iron just such men as Murphy; to deprive them of their control of the executiv, iiidCiiiHtENs 10 restore tO IL the dis charge of the functions for which i was created, the effective expression of the will of the people who compos, the party When this is done we shaI have leaders and not bosses. We shal then have conventions of real delegate. seeking to determine whom the peopI, want placed in nomination.
 We shall have candidates and pub lie officers in whose choice the peo ple's voice has been potent and wh, will feel that their responsibility is [, the people and not to some politica boss who created them"
 Wm. Randolph Hearst tonigh: gay out the following statement: T hay no interest whatever in the factiona disputes of Tammany Hall. These dec larations for or against me are noth Ing more than attempts to influenc votes in the primary contests. Owe three months ago I gave an interview 10 the Brooklyn Eagle, defining my DO sition, which I have not altered.

Opening Day at Ascot Park Mared
By Storm and Slow Track

LOS ANGELES, Nov. 29.--The racing
season at Ascot Park opened with an
attendance that approached 5000, al
though the day was cold and threaten
ing, and rain fell up to the hour Of
noon. The course, which has hitherto
been very fast. was too slow to permit
of close judgment upon the horses that
participated, but there were three close
finishes, and the interest manifested
continued until the last race was run.
Oarsman, the to favorite in the
Jonathan Club handicap, won the
sweepstakes, worth $3.50 to the first.
Arimo, quoted at from 10 to l to Is to l,
ran spectacular race, finishing sec
ond after leading by three lengths for
nearly mile. Oarsman failed to get
clear track in the early portion of the
race, and Arimo. well ridden. rounded
into the stretch with a wide advantag ge.
Harris, on Oarsmap, shook up MS
mount in the last eighth and won with
two lengths to spare, Arimo having
tired. Gorgalette and w. II. Carey.
who finished in third and fourth places,
were favored by many.
Bill Curtis, quoted as high as 20 to J..
furnished the greatest surprise of the
day. Away In the ruck he speedily as
suned the lead and maintained his ad-
vantage by length as the wire was
passed. The defeat of J. F. Donahue
and Oratorian upset all calculations in
the betting ring.
To slow track was ascribed the VIC
tory of Kirkfeld Belle in the last race.
at 10 to 1. and Judge Denton's defeat
of Elfin King, who was heavily played
to win in the fifth event.

O'BRIEN,S SHOWING
DISAPPOINTS
EASTERNERS
SPECIAL DISPATCH TO THE CALL

NEW YORK. Nov. 29.-Local sport
ing men today expressed keen disap-
pointment over the showing made by
philadelphia Jack" OBrien in his bout
with Tommy Burns at Los Angeles
Wednesday night. They expected
O. Brien to score knockout over his
Detroit opponent before the end of
fifteen rounds. and the fact that the
Quaker only got draw surprised
them.
In the opinion of New York sporting
men Wednesday nights battle elimi-
mates OBrien from the list of heavy
weight championship possibilities They
now regard him as a clever boxer cap
able of holding his own with middle
weights, but with no license to take on
heavier men. For Burns they have the
greatest admiration, for, notwithstand-
ing his inexperience, he fought great
battle.
Either man, however, Honest john
Kelly thinks, should be 1000 to l if he
meets Jeffries.

THOMAS Is READY
FOR BOUTS WITH
TWO MEN

Joe Thomas will essay the difficult
task of outboxing two men tonight in
Dreamland Pavilion, something which
has not been done here in long
time Thomas has selected Frank Nc
Connell as the first man who must face
him. 1t is planned by the management
to have them enter the ring shortly
before 9 O'Clock At the conclusion of
this bout what is usually the prelini-
nary will be presented and then Thomas
will enter upon the last half of his
contract and will take on AL NeilL
While Thomas is generally believed
to outclass his opponents Mcconnell
does not share in this belief and has
an idea he can outpoint the young
welterweight who has come to the
front so rapidly in the last two years.
The referee question is in a muddled
state. The advertising posters an
nounce Eddie Smith as the official
arbiter of bouts. but it has been given
out by members of the fight trust that
Billy Roche will be third man in the
ring The boxers must weigh in at
$50 pounds at o'clock. at which time
they will confer with Morris Levy as
to the referee.
bouts Kid McFadden and Bobby John
Johnson will take the place of Tommy
Knight, who wanted the management
to cut down the length of the bout and
to make other concessions.
Joe Cans is expected here today and
will remain until Monday. He will
then go to Tonopah to train for his
bout with Hermann Ben Selig signed
the articles for him and also arranged
for training quarters. He could not
find a satisfactory place, so M. M. Riley,
who has charge of the arrangements,
will build suitable gymnasium. This
will be twenty-five feet by forty feet.
1t will have all the necessary ap-
paratus and heating facilities. The
fight will be held at 3 o'clock on the
afternoon of New Years day and will
be to finish. 1t has not been decided
yet whether moving pictures will be
taken.
