signs drove into crowd of several hun

set upon the wagons. tore on the signs
and warned the drivers to leave. They
had hardly gone when fire engines dashed
up. some one having sent in a false alarm.
When SulZer finally was able to speak
thirty giant frecrackerS were set OFF in
rapid order. Madison street horse cars,
which run ordinarily at about thirty

the crowd frequently, each loaded with
passengers, who insisted that the con-
ductor stop where the throng was most

auditors following. When he lef. after

election Of Mitchell by pluralities rang

was equally confident that Mccall
would win by from $4,000 to 100000.
The turmoil OF the campaign has re-
suited In unloosing the tongue OF the
Tammany chieftain for the first time In
the memory OF his followers. Under the
assault, Murphy talked daily with re-
