IS MARKING TIME
Justice Greenbaum's Re

Discontented Chiefs.

Swann Believed to Lead in Race
for Prosecutor?Sheriff
Still in Balance.
After a meeting of the Tammany ?
general and executive committees last
night, preceded by an afternoon at
home at Tammany Hall by Charle- f,
M'-rphy, it was more uncertain than ?
ever just who would receive the in?
formal support of the organization for
the various nominations to be made at ;
the primaries on September ML
It is not at all unlikely, so on?? of)
the wisest leader?, said, that the men !
the organization will get behind finally '
for District Attorney and Sheriff have ,
not been mentioned at all yet.
Objection to the renomination of
Justice Samuel Greenbaum on the part j
of some of the irreconcilable organiza?
tion leaders is what has held up the
judicial slate, it was learned last
night. All the leaders are ready to
stand back of Justices Shearn and Dele
hanty for renomination, and even of
Justice John Proctor Clarke, who is
a Republican, but there i- grumbling
on the part of some over Samuel
Greenbaum, although he has been gen?
erally classed as a Democrat.
Me never was a member of Tammany
Hall, and when elected in 1901 it was
on a fusion ticket. Some of the lead?
ers are asking what he has ever done
for the organization anyway.
But the advice of the older heads is:
"Remember Justice Joseph F. Daly, in
1W8." In that year Richard F. Croker
denied a renomination to Justice Daly
because he had not permitted himself
to be dictated to by the organization.
A wave of resentment went through
the city and it was made an issue all
through the state. Many attributed
' the defeat of the state ticket, headed
by Augustus Van Wyck, to this mis?
take on the part of the Tammany
leader.
This year there is already a strong
lawyers' movement under way for the
renomination and re-election of both
Justice Clarke and Justice Greenbaum.
A non-partisan committee of one hun?
dred, headed by William D. Guthrie, is
at work. It is urging the renomination
of both men by all parties. If that is
not done, the committee will place their
names on the ballot by petition.
Although there is still considerable
talk of Thomas W. Churchill and
James A. Delehanty for District Attor?
ney, the tip is still that Judge Fdward
Swann is first in the mind of Charles
F. Murphy. There is little talk of Mag?
istrate Joseph K. Corrigan.
Christy Sullivan, who an for Sheriff
and was beaten four years ago, is
anxious to get the nomination this
year. But when he asked for a second
trial two years ago he was told that it
was never a good thing to run a de
. feated horse again. The boom for "Big

Adams on Straw Hats
EVERY man wears a straw hat?but how many men
know whether they get their money's worth when
they buy and know when and where to buy and how to
read a label? In his regular business article ne.xt Sun?
day Adams rakes the whole straw hat business over the
coals and gives simple, illuminating facts which can save
every man who reads The Tribune several dollars a year.
These Sunday articles by Adams are quite as vital to The Tribunes
work for clean advertising -a*s "The Ad-Visor" and the work of the
Bureau of investigations. You can't get a real grasp of the whole
campaign unless you tell your newsdealer to supply you regularly with
