HUGH J. GRANT, FORMER
MAYOR OF N. Y, DIES AT so
He Had Been Master In Tammany
Hall and Active in Opposing
Grafters' Schemes.

NEW YORK, Nov. 4.-Hugh ].
Grant, twice mayor OF New York, died
of heart disease last night at his
home on East Seventy-second-st.
Twenty years ago Hugh John Grant
was master in Tammany hall and A
central figure in the politics OF this
city. He ran for mayor four times
and was twice elected and twice de.
ieated. His honorable course as an
alderman In opposition to the boodlers
or 1884 won him such standing that
Iammany nominated him time and
time again for the highest Office in the
city. In recent years he was out OF
politics and devoted all his time 10
the management Of his large real es
tate interest.
Mr. Grant was born in this city in
December 1858.
he was too busy at law and the real
estate business TO find time for politlcs
until 1888 when he ran for alderman
as the Tammany candidate in the
nineteenth district He was renonnin.
ated and elected easily. Il was in chat
board that the coupon frauds M the
comptroller's Office were discovered.
and In their discovery young Grant
was instrumental In 1884 the fran.
chises of the ferries and street rail
roads were practically sold at public
auction, the most celebrated Of the
scandals being the Broadway railroad
franchise. Grant actively and con.
sistently opposed the boodling and
made his name familiar to the citizens
of New York. He was one of the two
aldermen who voted against the Doodle
combination in the board of aldermen
which gave Jacob Sharp a franchise
to build a railroad in Broadway.
Tammany made him sheriff in 1886
and in 1888, when he was only 30 years
old, he was elected over Mayor
Abrams. He was reelected in 1890
defeating Francis NJ. Scott, the fusion
candidate.
IL twas Hugh J. Grant who made
the telephone and telegraph com
panies take down their overhead
wires When the telephone people
refused TO place their wires in con-
Quits, Mayor Grant settled the con-
troversy in a characteristic way. He
ordered the police TO turn out and
gangs Of linemen, laborers and az
men chopped down the poles and tore
down the wires.
