tlOn 10 succeed nlmSeI, dlQ not entcT
the lists, as had been expected. There
was talk, however. Of his running as an
Independent candidate in the fall.
Veto insurgent Ticket Plan
1t was explained by friends of Hines
last night that at a conference between
various anti Murphy factions IN Tam
many Hall it was decided shat Hines,
single handed, would stand a better
tify me of the date of such meeting
| shall be glad to avail myself Of the
courtesy"
Judge Alfred J. Talley, who was
candidates than if q complete insurgent
ticket should be named against the
Murphy slate.
Murphy and his advisers were hoping
that the Hines faction would enlist the
aid of the other ntiMurphy groups in
the organization and put up an entire
ticket against them. But the anti Muir
ply elements did not fall into this trap.
as it appeared likely few days ago
they might do.
81 have no ticket said Hines last
night. 81 have an issue, however,
Murphy and Murphyism. A vote for
me in the primaries is a vote against
Murphy and his rule-orruin policy. l
ain confident that the Democratic wom-
en- and men of Manhattan will manifest
their disgust with Murphy and Muir
phys intolerable methods at the ballot
box. Primary Day will sound the death
knell Of the leadership of Boss Murphy
in Tammany Hail."
La Guardia to Run Alone
La Guardia, as he announced last
week. filed only his own petition for
Mayor. Unlike the other two insur-
gent Republican candidates for Mayor,
Bennett and Haskell, he made no effort
to put up a complete ticket 1t is true
that some of Benefits designees, who
had not been consulted, withdrew as
candidates after their names as his
running mates had been filed a week
ago. Bennett explained yesterday that
the chief withdrawal, that of Francis
Colety as Comptroller, was known to
him beforehand, as he intends to sup
port Senator Lockwood for Comptroller
Haskell. however, has put up an OPP
person Of Henry Schabahorn, of
Queens.
For candidates for the Assembly, both
parties, with few exceptions, renomi-
mated the present members. The same
was true Of the Aldermen. But in no
instance was there any fusion among
the Democrats and Republicans against
the Socialist candidates where the So
cialist vote is heavy This was due to
the passage of the Aldermanc reappor-
tlonment bill at the last session, which,
with one exception. made the boun-
daries of Aldermanic districts contigu-
Gus with the Assembly districts.
Socialists Certain to Gain
This reused the ire of Tammany,
which characterized the reapportion-
ment as an attempt on the part of the
Republicans to control the Board of
Aldermen. Whatever else may happen,
it is certain the failure of the two
dominant parties to fuse in the strong
Socialist districts nsures an increase
in the representation of Socialists in
the Board Of Aldermen and in the As
sembly.
The rcapportionment has given rise
to several contests among the Demo-
Gratis. In the Sd Aldermanic District, a
strong Tammany bailiwick, John F.
McCourt, for years a member of the
Board of Aldermen, is being opposed
for the nomination by Stephen F. Rob-
erts.
There is only one bye-clection in this
city this year. This is to fill the va
cancy in the 10th Senatorial District
caused by the resignation of Martin G.
McCue, now clerk in the Surrogates'
Court. The Democrats have designated
Thomas |. Sheridan and the Repubh-
cans have agreed on FRANC Dlouhy.
Both are unopposed for the nominal
lions in their respective parties.
Republicans in Brooklyn who are in
censed at the way Jacob A. Livingston
has been running things put up candi-
dates in Livingston's home district for
both Alderman and Assemblyman in op-
position to Livingston's slate. Charles
G. Moore was Livingston's selection for
the Aldermanic nomination. The oppo-
sltion named Charles ]. Ehlerman. AS
semblyman Louis J. Druss, who repre-
sents Livingston's district in the lower
branch of the State Legislature, is op-
posed by Emerson d. R. Cleverling
The spokesman for Livingston in the
Assembly, Frederick A. Wells, also has
contest on his hands, being opposed
oy Walter B .Atterbury, former chair
man Of the county committee.
