Charles f. Murphy, the Tammany
chieftain, yesterday at Tammany Hall
passed the word around that the Tam
many city ticket would be Hyan, Craig
and Hubert
simultaneously Mr. Murphy an
nounced that the county executive com
mittees in Brooklyn Bronx and Rich
mond boroughs had indorsed the above
named ticket. He learned this over
the telephone within fifteen minutes
after reaching his desk in Tammany
Hall yesterday afternoon.
Then it is true that Brooklyn, the
Bronx and Richmond are forcing Hy-
Ian, Craig and Hubert on Tammany ?"
he was asked.
Mr.. Murphy'5 face was wide grin
as he answered: 'If the other bor-
oughs want that ticket I am in favor
of it, too"
Awaits Action on Judiciary
Mr. Murphy sprang a surprise on
. the executive committee, which had
been called to meet at O'Clock. bv
postpcning the meeting until o'clock
to-day. When asked about the sud
( den shift he said something about a
mistake by the stenographer IN making
the meeting day Monday instead Of
Tuesday.
The real reason was discovered by
the district leaders, who filled the main
office at Tammany Hall. before they
broke away from the Wigwanl. 1t was
that Mr.. Murphy was waiting to see if
the Republicans would send word to
him that they stood ready to indorse
Judges Mulqueen and Talley of the
Court Of General Sessions for renom-
lnation, and Judges La Fetra and Va
ente Of the City Court. whose terms
are expiring, in exchange for an in
dorsement of Judge Morris Koenig
Republican. of the Court of General
Sessions. who was appointed by Gov
enor Miller and who viii be named
TO succeed himself by the Republicans
The Republican leaders smiled at the
inequality Of the suggestion and little
was heard of the matter at the National
Republican Club, where President Koe-
mig and his advisers were in confer
encc over the Republican borough and
county tickets.
