DRAMATIC Interruptions.
Two unusual incidents disturbed the
Hearst and the Gaynor meetings. At
the former DeFOrd began denuncia-
ton of State Senator Patrick H. Nc
Carren, who is i'll, when a voice inter-
rupted dramatically with the exclama-
ton: "McCarren is dead"
An immediate hush fell over the as
semblage and DeFord apOlOgized. with
the explanation that he was attack
ing McCarren's principles and not Nc
Carren. the man.
It was a militant suffragette who
disturbed the GaynOr gathering. Gay
nor had barely got under way when a
woman rose in the audience and called
How about woman suffrage?"
She was Miss Maud Malone, a IA
miliar figure at political gatherings.
"The question which you ask is not
pertinent to this meeting" said Gaynor
with some embarrassment, land I shall
ask You, in order to prevent any fur
Their interruption. to go first and con-
suit my wife"
Still Miss Malone refused to be seat
ed and after consulting with Hermann
Ridder. who presided as chairman a
policeman escorted her from the hall
Attack on Bingham.
Gaynor's speech was a plea for per
sonal liberty" and a liberal construc-
ti9n, particularly of the Sabbath OBJ
/ seTvance laws He attacked Former
, Police Commissioner Bingham, who is
now campaigning against Gaynor, as a
strut about, head butler from the
White house brought here over the
heads of 5000 better men than he, who
introduced military regulations which
would not be tolerated in Russia"
In discussing the cleansing of the
city, he paid a tribute to Former Pres
