nominations last night in the Academy OF
Music The principal entertainment of the
evening was the speech of william J. Gay
ror. Tammany's candidate for Mayor. Ex-
Justioe Augustus A. Van Wyck was the
chairman. and he spoke Of a united De-
1nocracy, brought about by a committee
or which he was the head.
Not TO be outdone by the Hearst orators,
who compare their candidate 10 Washing
ton and Lincoln. with the odds I'm favor of
Hearst the eN-Justice compared Gaynor
with jefferson. Jackson. Cleveland. Sey-
mour and Tilden. going the Hearst people
three better.
All that Mr. Van Wyck said in intro
duciug Gaynor was. Mr.. Gaynor'' The
audience. wnich numbered about twenty
i've hundred. cheered for about a minute
and a nalf and the candidate said they
were almost as cold a newspaper said
that Tammany Hall had been the night
before. lie had been in the Tigers lair and
was now unsfraid of anything, ne said,
and then for nearly half hour he
pounded Hearst whose name was first
greeted With Misses and a few scattering
cheers
Judse Gaynor asserted that he and his
associates on the city ticket, Moore and
Calvin. were not members OF any political
organization. But Hearst-why. he adver-
tiscd IN newspapers like a patent medicine
o. a nostrum. and paid a man $4,000
year 10 slobber over him. said the eN-jus-
tee OF the Supreme Court. 'Oh, you an
gel." shouted man in the top gallery.
DOESN'T NEGLECT HEARST.
Tie would not speak OF Mr.. Hearsts
promises said MI Gaynor. and then he
proceeded to speak about them at great
length, and said that nothing hurt him so
much as broken promises. The Civic ALI
ancc candidate, the speaker said always
complained Of fraud when he was defeated
and ballot box stufing. and must be a
'simpleton" if his opponents could do that
50 easily when ne was running for office.
WINS Mr.. Gaynor did not mention by name,
saying that 10 do sOfo Brooklyn audience
would be like twice slaying the dead.
slowly the platform began TO empty. and
straEglers began TO desert the auditorium
and galleries. Nearly half the audience
VAS composed OF women, and they were the
inst 10 depart. Some renewed interest wss
shown when the Tammany candidate men
toned Jerome's name, saying that IN mis-
administration there would be no Jerome,
with crowbars and axes. Bingham and
Devery were held up as buffoons-
Al one time. after a brief pause, the can
didate reached away over. thrust his hand
into his silk hat and drew out slip OF
paper His voice Quivered as he read a
ouotation from the Bible. He Immediately
afterWard won applause when he said there
was a more intelligent effort for good gov
eInment IN Brooklyn than in any other bor-
ough in the city. II was not a thrilling
meeting.
Jonu II. McCooey. the candidate to sue
ceed Borough President Coler, preceded
Gaynor. and never mentioned his name
once Mr Calvin. the Tammany candidate
for President Of the Board Of Aldermen,
lei out a secret when ne said that we"
expected Judge Gaynor a month before
tie convention met. TO be unanimously
nominated Mr.. McCooey got far more spOn-
,saeous applause than the Tammany can
ddate for Mayor.
JUDGE GAYNOR's SPEECH.
The candidate talked for more than an
hour and half He started out by saying:
You are almost as cold as The Sum-
which always tells the truth, says that
they were al Tammany Hall last night

mad no expectation of returning here so
soon. but ! speak tonight under different
auspices ! spoke the other night with a
Republican presiding at A citizens meet
ing. but now, having visited the Tiger on
tie other side Of the river, / am made
wholly unafraid Of anything this earth.
II ] ever was afraid OF anything hereto

10 speak under the auspices OF the Demo-
cratic organization Of this county. per
LauS I should say OF this Borough or
Biooklyn. because Mr.. Hearst. who is going
about The city trying 10 prevent tne elec-
iioI OF those who viii be in q position TO
d. something for the city during the next
-four years, as he well knows. seems 10 be
under the impression that there is only one
borough in the whole city. r.. -.

zetion Of any borough within the great city
nj zen yors huf that won't prevent Mr.
Hearst believing until the last day OF the
canvass that We are the Iammany ticket
on he Tammany ticket. How dainty and
how nice and how delicate is the conscience
OF this man about the Tammany ticket just
al present!
HEARST AS AN ADVERTISER
Judge Gaynor referred again to Mr..
Hearst's arrival in this city from Califor-
ria and his approaching Mr.. Croker to
be sent 10 Congress" He continued:
Not contenfed with his own newspapers
during this canvass. he has hired columns
IN another paper, and adVeruses hlmself

ont and up and down all these years, more
than would like 10 tell ia the presence

say II ne II 7 hired two columns in The
Brooklyn Eagle? II is so friendly to

The ladies' and is not noW-When 1 was a

express our disgust in any other way so
We expressed II in that way.
DEFENDS THE TIGER.
The candidate spoke along familiar lines
on Hearst's withdrawal OF support Taking
up the 'stufing" of Independence League
hsiiot boxes, he said:
Surely the Tiger did not come over here
!" stun Lls ballot boxes. nor did they have
anything whatever 10 do with his prima-
