TAMMANY LOST EXCEPT
IN FIGHT FOR MAYOR
By United press Leased Special Wire

Nv Tinted Press Leased Special Wire
NEW YORK. Nov. 3-rhere Is dense
gloom in Tammany Hall to-day. The
Tiger yesterday suffered its most sweep
ing defeat since the greater city was es-
tablished and the fact that New York
city is no longer a Democratic strong
hold was emphasized when the entire Flu
sion ticket, with the exception of the
candidate for mayor, triumphed by sub
stantial pluralities.
Former Justice William ]. Gaynor, who
headed the Tammany ticket is elected
mayor by plurality Of not less than TO-
600 but the victory is due entirely TO his
personal popularity He declares his in
dependence Of lTamany and there is every
likelihood that he win maintain that posi-
lion inasmuch as it has been demonstrat-
ed that Tammsny could not deliver the
goods on the remainder Of the city ticket
The election Of Gaynor and the defeat
OF the remainder Of the ticket IS expect
Cd to end Charles F. Murphy and Daniel
Cohalen's domination Of rammany They
forced the nomination OF Caynor al
though they personally detest him. be-
cause they expected his personal popular
ity would elect the entire ticket, which
has been characterized as Of the yellow
dog" stripe. PAY no attention to Gaynor,
but get the others in" was the order. but
FOR once Murphy guessed badly and to-
day IS being cursed right and left BY the
men who yesterday we're acclaiming him
as q great leader. Gaynor is expected to
annoupce his independence OF Murphy

tration and the perfection Of a complet
system Of transportation, which includes
z network Of subways connecting the va
rious boroughs.
The worst blow Of all to Tamman,
came with the loss Of It's ticket in New
York county. Relying on the popularit,
OF Gaynor, Murphy nominated what wa
admittedly the worst county ticket witt
which Tammany ever went into cam
paign. Three district leaders, including
State Senator Christie Sullivan for sher
if; James J. Hagan for county clerk
and men whose names are synonomou
with Tammany, were forced on the ticke

THIRTY THREE MEN
SEEK CITIZENSHIP
No Special Government Agent
on Hand to Examine AppIi-
CantS so MIR. NieldS Acts

Ten minutes before the time set for
hearing applicants for naturalization
papers in the United States' Court to-
day. Judge Edward r. Bradford was
informed that there would be no spec
ial agent representing the government
present TO examine the applicants and
witnesses. Heretofore the Govern
ment has been represented by special
counsel who Investigated each appli-
cant for naturalization and the change
in the established custom interfered
with the proceedings to-day for a short
time.
Judge Bradford informed District At
torney John P. Nields that with
thirty three applicants for citizenship
TO hear. there was no representative
present to conduct the examinations.
He said that he himself could not make
an investigation of the applicants. He
asked Mr. Nields what he had TO say
on the matter.
Mr. Nields informed the court that
he had received a printed circular let
ter from Washington setting forth that
Congress had made no appropriations
to employ special agents to assist in
naturalization cases and he also said
that he had been instructed by the
Attorney General at Washington 10
assist as much as possible in such
cases. He said he was ready TO pro-
.ceed.
Judge Bradford remarked that he
had not known that Congress had
failed to appropriate money for so
gery important a matter. He con-
sidered the practice employed in such
cases in the past as very satisfactory.
Mr.. Nields voiced the courts senti-
ments. AT this juncture the long list
OF applicants for naturalization was
taken up with Mr. Nields as the ex-
amining officer
