HEARST Went

For a Short While.

NEW YORK, October 21.-The
World says: For two hours last Sat
urday afternoon William r. Hearst
was out of the mayorality race on
strike, and had not the Republican
managers agreed to accede to his
terms the triangular race for mayor
would have come to a sudden end and
the anti-Tammany campaign would
have collapsed. Through William NJ.

appeared with him at the Academy of
Music meeting in Brooklyn. scheduled
for that night, he would throw up the
race and leave the Republicans to
fight it out alone.
At $50 o'clock Saturday afternoon
Mr.. Hearst, from his residence, called
up the headquarters of the Civic AL
lance in the Hotel Hermitage in great
haste and asked for Mr.. Wins, who has
practically taken hold of the manage
ment of his campaign. When the lat
came to the telephone Hearst de-
livered his ultimatum. Mr.. WINS i'm
mediately got into communication
with Herbert Parsons, William S. Ben
net and Mr. Barnard. The question of
whether the fusion candidates should
apear with Mr.. Hearst had been one
that had split the Republicans wide
open. Mr.. Barnard and his close
friends had objected to it and insisted
that their appearance with Hearst
was apparently disloyalty to him. Fol
about two hours the Republican cam
paign was in great state of confu
sion, but it was finally decided that
the only thing to do was to have Prem
dergast and Mitchell attend the Hearst
meeting. Word was sent to Mr.
Hearst and the striking candidate goi
into his long-tailed campaign coat and
started for Brooklyn. Twenty minutes
before Mr.. Hearst arrived at the
meeting Prendergast and Mitche
were there.

city's revenues would be cut down TO
a considerable extent Some depart
ments, and possibly all of them, would
necessarily suffer unless additional
revenues should be provided for their
maintenance.
On the other hand, those who op
pose the increase are inclined to INK
that in some departments expenses
could easily be reduced without Grip
pling their efficiency. They argue
that under the present system of ap-
praisement property is not assessed
according to its worth or what Il could
be sold for at the present time, ard
in some instances is assessed at CON
siderably more than its real value.
This means, they argue, that the levy,
according to real value, would amount
to considerably more than fourteen
mills, and that under the twelve mill
rate they are really paying, in some
instances, twenty-four mills.
Concerning the matter till. morning
