opposition we're the "Bowery Boys, :"
who put on the Ritz with those old
fashioned high hats.
Politicians began to make deals
with the gangs. The gangs began to
gain in power. Their links were with
houses of ill-fame, saloons and
gambling joints.
About 1912 the Irish began to win
places in petty offices. At that time
ordinary aldermen we're referred to
as "the Forty Thieves"
There was none of the put-on-
the-spot gangsterism. Nearly every
thing was fought out in fairly hon
est combat, with fists and bricks.
Pre-Civil war days found the
Tammany organization with the
south and opposed to liberation of
the slaves. Anti-Negro feeling
broke out in New York, with more
trouble. Then came the bloody days
Of the draft"
The New York groups rebelled;
the streets ran red with blood for
Gays. A small form of civil war
obtained.
But the Tammany Society did
not die. 1t became a political in
teger in Manhattan, ingrained in
the very history of the town.
The first to get some sort of tan
gible organization together was Fer

IN ard may not change his spots,
but the Tammany Tiger can alter
its stripes. And has, many times
In fact, this miracle is happening
again.
In the beginning, so go the leg
ends, there was Chief Tammany
meeting william Penn under the
famous Pennsylvania elm For,
odd though it may seem. the In
dian whose. name has figured so
prominently in New York affairs,
was not of Manhattan extraction,
but roamed around New Jersey.
The Pennsylvania troops which
marched under George. Washington
adopted the chief as their patron.
So, when the American revolution
had ended, a group of patriotic fell
lows gathered in a tavern and or
gained a patriotic society. They
became the original-and ultra
exclusive-Tammany Society
Aaron Burr in Tammany
Brom MARKINGS inn heard the
spoutings of many an orator, for 1t
was not until 1899 that the soci-

Meanwhile, a rather well-knoWn
fellow by the name Of Aaron Burr
had been something approximating
its first leader
New York greW-Spreadlng along

Fourth and Sixth wards became the
bigger immigrant wards"
Whatever may have been the
chicanery and crookedness of a
Boss Tweed, and whatever the
shady figure others may have cut
-Tammany began with wigs and
grand gestures, and, amusingly
enough, was anti-Irish.
Irish Were Barred
Although Irish immigrants we're
pouring in, members of their race
we're denied office by Tammany.
The Irish revolted; they marched
on the Wigwam and demanded
their rights; there we're broken
chairs and glasswear; there we're
also broken noses and blaCkened
eyes.
The Wings changed all that. Pol
itics became more involved There
we're, until 1885, no registration
laws. Which made voting much
easier.
And thus came the first political
gangsters. Ballots we're stuffed and
honest voters we're slugged Certain
persons and groups realized they
had best deal with the gangs.
The Irish gang became known as

merchant. It might have seemed
that conditions IN the city could
get no worse.
Wood promised a general reform.
But given authority, he merely
added to the general corruption.
The first real boss. however, was
William NJ Tweed He stepped
forth in 1867. Previous to his ar
rival, government of the hall
such as it was-had been in the
hands of a committee.
Tweed insisted on being boss.
and a boss he was He took all
powers to himself. 1t was one of
his amusing customs never to call
for the negative vote on any ques-
tion in which he was interested.
The Tweed Ring" still is a
scandal at which the big town
bushes. Tweed, by the way, died
in Jail.
Then in came Honest John"
Kelly, about 1872, to straighten
things out. Kelly was the fellow
who set about, among other things,
to take the Tammany Society out
of politics and make it a club fash
Toned upon its parent organization.
So it has remained most of the
time since. Tammany, itself, stuck
to politics.
Richard Croker was Kelly's pro-
tege and followed him, for better
Or for worse-and certainly there
was somewhat of an improvement
on Tweed, if not on Kelly.
j. c. Sheehan came in for short
term, to be followed by Croker once
more; Lewis Nixon was another
short termer, and after him came
the long reign of Charles Francis
Murphy; then George Olvany and
now John Curry.
All From East Side
All of them came from the turbu-
lent and growing east side.
To this day, the spokesman of
Tammany deny bossism. To this
day, it is insisted that an organiza-
ton can not be held responsible for
individual OBJECTIONS; that the great
city has been built under the ma
Hinged leaders-from Brooklyn
bridge to the subways to the city
hall.
On the other side have been those
who charged that there was easy
money graft and treachery in al
most every important move the city
has taken.
At any rate, whether it has been
under bosses or leaders, Tamnany
had come to crack the political
whip in New York county. And

Baltimore Bondholders' Petition
Fails to Show Cause, Says
st. Louis Lines Motion.

ST. LOUIS. August 3o.-The st.
Louis G. San Francisco Railroad yester-
day filed a motion in Federal Court
asking dismissal of the receivership Pc
tition filed last week by two holders Of
prior lien mortgage bonds of the road.
The railroad alleged the petition on
its face shows there is no default un-
Ger the prior lien mortgage, and held
that the bondholders have given the
court no ground for appointment Of a
receiver.
The motion also states that the
plaintiffs. Charles and Dora r. Cans of
Baltimore, are trying through the re-
ceivership suit to collect obligations not
yet due and to obstruct the road and
other creditors from consummating q
valid plan for financial readjustment.
The receivership petition charged the
road was insolvent, unable to meet cur
rent and shortly maturing obligations
and that the plan of financial readjus
ment was unfair to holders of prior
lien bonds.
