1smnany Leader Visits
Gaynor at City Hall.
No More Joy Riding in New
Yok's Municipal Autos.
City Employees With Few Excep.
lions, Must Use Time Cards,

New York, Jan. 4.--Charles +. Muir
ply, leader Of Tammany hall, today
called on New York's new Democratic
mayor and spent an hour in conference
with him. When he left Mayor CAV
nor's Office he posed for his photograph
on the City hall steps. Tammany has
got = pretty slim patronage at Judge
Gaynor's hands, although without
Tammany behind him he probably
would never have been mayor of Great
er New York-not on the Democratic
ticket, at any rate.
When Mr.. Murphy left the mayor 8
office he was beseiged by .4aterviewers,
but to all queries gave a 'eRaracteristic
answer:
"You will have to ask the mayor"
Judge Gaynor discussed the Tam
many leaders, visit more freely.
The relations We're cordial as always.
since he first met Charles F. Murphy a
year ago Mr.. Murphy had called mere
ly to offer congratulations; they had
discussed no appointments, at least no
names. Whether Mr.. Murphy would
call again, he did not know. Incidental
ly, though the mayor did not speak of
it, this is Mr.. Murphy's first visit to
the City hall since he was commissions
er of docks in the Van Wyck admin
istraton. His relations with Mayor
Mcclellan, it will be recalled, were not
very cordial and never during Nc
Clellan's administration, even after
their differences were adjusted, was
Mr.. Murphy a caller
This, the second official day of the
new city administration, started off on
busincss-like principles. William A.
Prendergast, the new Republican Flu
sion comptroller, issued a sweeping or
der that 10y riding in the municipal
automobiles in all departments must
cease at once. He announced in addi
ton, every employe of the city above
the grade of laborer, excepting police
men, firemen and school teachers, must
have time cards upon which will be
recorded their cOmings and goings
while on duty. In this way the comp
troller hopes to ascertain just how
much of New York's $S0,O0O,000 salary
list is earned.
