THAT CAUSES HEATED DISCUS. SONS IN THE NEW YORK
 POLITICS.
Is RdicuIed by Charles p. Murphy, Leader of Tammany Element Barnard Declares He Will
 Defeat Hearst.

New York, Oct 23.-Slavery be. came a live issue in the municipal campaign boday--not the slavery that brought forth Uncle Toms Cabin" and the denunciatory eloQuence of the eos, but that nineteenth century sys. tenn known as the white slave trafs fio," which has afforded so much ma terial for the present day reformers.
 The growth of this system under Tammany Hall, as attested by a writ CT for the current issue of McClure's Magazine. has laid the foundation up on which the local press, hostile to the Democratic ticket, headed by Will liam J Gaynor, IS conducting a new attack, while the Republican-Fusion orators and supporters of w. R. Hearst have found new fuel for an already heated campaign.
 Charles F. Murphy, leader of Tam. many Hall, characterized the charges as nonsensical this afternoon.
 Too nonsensical to be worthy of discussion" he said briefly.
 Former Justice Gaynor declined to comment on the matter.
 q am too busy to go into such things now" he said.
 This was another quiet night in the campaign. Thought the day before election time, November 2, can almost be counted on the fingers of one hand Otto Barnard, the Republican nomi- nee. was the only one of the mayoral ty ti4ow ho spoke. He delivered sev- en brief addresses in New York to- night Judge Gaynor addressed noon day meetings, as did MT Barnard Hut Mr Hearst did not appear on the platform today or tonight.
 In his noon day speech Gaynor whose running fiie on Hearst has been uninterrupted since the editor repudiated him and accepted nomi- nation himself. said:
 "A business mans word is his bond. Even gambler keeps his word But W. R. Hearstis promise is good for nothing
 Barnard also took a shot at Hearst in his day addresses. As both head the fusion ticket he has refrained from personalities except at rare in. tervals He said today, however:
 This Hearst vote does not trou- ble me at all shall beat him by 100000 votes at the finish, and am not given to idle talk.
 What is Hearst going to get out of this? Well, the answer is noth- ing. Hearst Is the loyal citizen and the holy martyr That Is his new role and that is all he gets out of it
 Touching the white slave qpss- ton during his speeches tonight, MT. Barnard said: VIM
 " If there is in this city--as maga. zine and newspapers are sayIng--an organized white slave traffic, l wish you would trust the fusion ticket to crush it. If it exists. it is protected by clique in Tammany Hall If am elected and the police will not help me stamp it out, l will Import aid from other cities at my own ex- pense, if necessary. would not at. tempt to make sensational crusade, but nevertheless, all effective one.'
