TAMMANY'S
LEADER DIES
Charles Murphy. Noted New
York Politician, Dies
at Home

New York, April 25.-Charles F.
Murphy, leader of Tammany Hall,
died at his home here today.
Murphy succeeded the late Richard
Croker as chieftain of the country's
most famous political organization.
He was a native New Yorker, having
been born here.
Acute Indigestion was the cause
of the death.
A street car driver who became
leader of the most powerful organi-
zation in the world, and as such
played n prominent part in the nam
ing of mayor. and governors and
nominees for the presidency-such is
the life story of Charles 5. Murphy.
Although denied the advantages Of
education because of family circum-
stances he showed qualities of lead
ership early in life and from bow
hood had been a leader of circle
of one kind or another. In all Of
them he was uniformly successful. Il
result that may be said to have
been due to his loyalty 10 friends,
his shrewdness and his secretivc
manner. He never discussed hi.
plans with any except his closest
lieutenants and rarely spoke for pub
licatiOn. Whenever he consented to
be interviewed he usually covered
what he had to say in sentence or
two. As a result he became gener.
ally known as Silent Charley"
