Democratic district leaders informed
Tammany chicftains yesterday that the
Socialist candidates are becoming

upper and lower East side sections OF
the city. districts which heretofore have
been strong Tammany strongholds on
| election day.
! Tammany has been quietly conducting
canvass of the Socialist streSgth, real
.zing. IL was said, that the Democratic
ticket would lose far more votes than the
fusion ticket if the Socialist candidates
polled n big vote. This canvass was
completed several days ago and yester.
| day report was made to Charles F.
Murphy and his advisers
The leaders made no effort to conceal
their alarm over the increasing Socialist
strength. and some Of them even went
SO far as to predict that Morris Hillquit.
Socialist candidate for Mayor. will sweep
the East Side from Brooklyn Bridge to
the Harlem River.
I TnmmRny See. Danger.
This information hae caused the Tam
many leaders to make A sudden shift in
! their campaign plans. Tammany always
has counted on the dcnsely populated
sections of the city for heavy pluralities
+ and has always received them. But Judg-
/ ing from present conditions It Us these
same districts that are almost two to
! one for the Socialist ticket. In this sit
{ uation Tammany sees considerable dam
ger. according to Democratic leader
/ last night.
! AS the campaign has developed so far
! there have been but two clear cut issues
! raised. Mayor Mitchell Is running on a
straight out and out Amercanism ticket
! "a war platform. Mr.. Hllqu.t, the So
cslist candidate. is running on plat
form absolutely opposed TO the war and
! In favor Of an early peace.
! The Democratic candidates have taken
! no decisive stand one way or the other.
[ Judge John +. Hylan. the Tammany
: cand date. has failed to answer the

course. declaring for nothnS sxcep,
| Tammany Hall.
/ As explained last night by political
| observer the Socialist candidates Will
receive the votes OF all OF the pro-
Germans and OF all those opposed to the
! war as well as of the discontented
generally, which include the poor who
are suffering keenly because of the high
J cost of living. The Democratic leaders
by their middle of the road" policy
hoped. according to the observer. to get
! the bulk of the pro-German vote. But
there il every indication now that this
, vote will go to the Socialists.
