ATTITUDE OF GOV. HUGHES

New York, Oct 19-"And so this IL
Tammany Hall? It is the first time that
1 ever have been here. but If this is
Tammany Hall. where is the tiger?'
These were the first words spoken to
night by William J. Gaynor, Demo-
cratic nominee for mayor. as he gazsd
out over a great audience in the old
structure on Fourteenth street known
as the Wigwam. the headquarters OF the
most remarkable political organization
in the world. He was greeted With
cheers.
It was a typical Tammany ovation
and a typical Tammany ratification
meeting. The hall was packed. Al
though Judge GaynOr had delivered sew
eral addresses since his nomination, Il
was not until tonight that the Demo-
cratic ticket in Manhattan was Off
cially ratified"
Otto T. Barnard, maintaining his
whirlwind pace, but adhering closely to
business issues and avoiding PERSONAL
tiles, made four speeches in Harlem to-
night, but interest was conferred In the
Tammany gathering.
Gist of eaynor's Remarks.
Judge Gaynor went over the ground
that he has covered observation-disclosures
at William r. Hearst, his Independent
rival, and criticism Of Barnard. He
also touched on personal liberty"
traction problems, subways and other
issues of interest to the city only. He
repeated that if there was to be any
swallowing between him and the tiger.
he would be found on the outside. Re
feTring to the Office Of mayor, he classed
it as second in importance only 10 the
presidency Of the United States, and
said that no Office offered greater oppOr-
tunity for eXeTting power for good or
evil.
He sought to refute the charge that
he was strictly a Tammany candidate.
While GaynOr was speaking, four big
out-of-door meetings were conducted
from as many platforms to accOmmo-
date the great thrOng that could not
get into Tammany Hail.
Fourteenth street, between Third ave
nue. and Irving place to the west, was
TANNED, and the police had difficulty
in keeping order. The splutter of fire
works, red fire and torches added to the
confusion, but no one was seriously In
jured-
Inside when Gaynor announced that
he was bound by no party and to no

cheers. Charles A. Murphy, leader Of
Tammany Hall, was present, as were
other prominent members Of the organ
izatiOn.
Bannard's Campaign.
Refusing to be drawn into any con-
troversy with Hearst. who at first ac-
| cepted the nomination as a passive can
dida1e, heading the same ticket as Ban
nard. but who last night turned against
the Republican nominee and attacked
him bitterly, Mr.. Barnard said:
81 am not spending my time abusing
other candidates, but instead I am
touching on different phases OF city
life'i
He refused absolutely to comment on
| Hearst's attack. Hearst rested tonight
| GaynOT is still the favOrite in the bet

| scarce this year, or else those who
wager on the results of elections are
| holding off for the situation to clear I'D.
| At che Hoffman House today, where
many Of the election wagers are posted,
| it was said that no prevailing odds
have developed. There are wagered,
! however, $1,000 to 81 800 or four to
three, that Barnard would be last. and
