The VrHMu Speak OS) Dlstrlcta Organised.
Tbo Giinorol Commtttco of tho Homo Hulo
Democracy, which recognizes County Clerk
Henry 1). Purroy ns Its lcador, root Uat night at
Lyric Hall, In Sixth avenuo, near Forty-second
street, and reaffirmed its unaltorablo hostility
to Tammany Hall, Although no namo was
mentioned, tho description In tho resolutions
of the sort of Mayoralty candidate who would
bo acceptablo to tho organization was con
sidered to mean Seth Low. The spirit ot tho
resolutions as well as of tho spoochos was for
union against Tammany Hall. A llttlo dlvor
lion In favor of Street Cleaning Commissioner
Waring for Mayor was supplied by a big delega
tion from tho Fourth Assombly district led by
the father of tho "McKonna Triplets." This
delegation marched Into tho hall headed by a
fife and drum corps and throo buglers, and boro
aloft four banners with the following legends:
Honeit and fearless. Our choice for Uayori Oeorge
E. Waxing
lt believes In organised labor, liberal excise larra,
and freedom to our citizens.
As Street Commlwloocr ha was a success. New fork
can well trust the city In his care.
If he has spent money, labor has received It.
There wero 1,500 cheering Purroyltes crowded
Into tho hall, and moro would have been thoro
had there been room. It was a bigger and moro
enthusiastic meottng than the roccnt gathering
ot tho Tammany Hall General Committee.
Henry Murray presided and mado a short
speech. In which he said that tho organization
was ready to unite with all good citizens who
are In favor of Looping out of oflloo tho men who
were kicked out threo years ago. Ho donouncod
tho failure- to rcorganlzo Tammany after tho
I,exow inv cstlgatlon. and cited the case of Chair
nan James J. Martin of tho Tammany Kxecu
th o Commtttco. who, bo said, compelled a police
man to apologize far Interfering with tho pro
prietress ot a house of 111 repute.
County Clerk Purroy was vigorously ap
plauded when be aroso to present bis resolutions.
He said:
" We oro Just beginning the campaign for the
most important municipal election which has
ever been held in this country. In It tho voters
are to decide whether thoy will lau nch this mag
nificent metropolis on an honorablo career or
turn It over to a corrupt Tammany cabal which
has more than once mado tbo namo Now York
Infamous and a byword."
Mr. Purroy promised that a victory against
Tammany would place tho Home Rule. Democ
racy in a commanding position In tho Democratio
party.
After reaffirming all that was said against
Tammany Hall in the resolutions adopted lost
February, the resolutions presented by tbo
County Clerk lost night recite:
"That in the opinion of this General Commit
tee no greater political calamity could possibly
befall our metropolis than would bo tho election
next November of a Mayor who, however decent
his previous career, would necessarily become,
from his very surroundings, subservient to tho
baneful influences of the present besmirched
Tammany leaders, whose low conception of
party management and of official duty has been
laid bore, again and again, to public view .and
whose return to control of municipal affairs
wonld surely mean a speedy recurrence of those
shameful days when, without any Increase In
tho tax rate, infamous vice readily pur
chased for Itself a precarious license, when tin
8ortant offices were sold at fixed rates, and with
icm went an implied permission to recoup from.
-t.mj yuWlcTWKrn publicans wero forced to be
come self-confessed criminals and serfs of offi
cials who periodically drained their tills: when
the ignorant associates of criminals sat upon
the bench to mete out unequal sentences to tbo
city's unfortunates; wben appropriations of the
people's money were skilfully diverted from
BunUo to private ends, and when valuable pub
c franchises and privileges were secretly ar
ranged for. and great corporations were quietly
'protected as e very-day matters of strict politi
cal ' business.'
"That the defeat of Tammany Hall next fall
can be accomplished, provided that there bo de
liberately and solidly concentrated against her
all tho forces which, for one good reason or an
other, are opposed to her present debasing sys
tem of control, and provided also that these
forces be led by a candidate for Mayor whose
nomination comes as the outgrowth of the peo
ple's wish; whose high Intelligence., firmness,
and probity havo been successfully tested; who
has had practical experience with public
affairs and public men; whose name typi
fies all that Is best in home rule; who has
shown himself sympathetic with the well
founded grievances of intelligent labor; whoso
physical and mental strength are fully equal to
the onerous task of wisely presiding over the
government of 3.500,000 people and who. In ono
word. Instead of being a mere figurehead for any
Irresponsible cabal whatever, would bo. In
I reality as well as in name, the chief magistrate
of tho second city of tho civilized world."
Ex Senator John O. Boyd offered tho follow
ing amendment, which was accepted:
That Inasmuch as we heartily recognize tho
magnitude of the power of corporations for tho
development ot our country's resources and the
promotion of tho public welfare when prop
erly managed In accordance with the spirit of
the constitutional provisions under which
they are created, wo deplore the fact
that many of those otherwise bonoflccnt bodies
have been perverted Into Instruments of
fiubllc extortion and oppression by unscrupu
lous persons and syndicates for tho gratification
of private avarice. Wo also denounce the
clumsily disguised subservlen-y to monopolistic
Influences of tho present Tammany leaders,
whoso peculiar methods and practices navo been
really antagonistic to that patriotic principle of
opposition to all monopolies and grasping trusts
which prevails among the great mass of Demo
cratic citizens."
Senator Charles L. Guy spoke in support of tho
resolution i "Tammany Hall." ho said, "stands
to-rtuy making no apology for tho past, offer
ing no pretenco of better conduct In tho
future, but Inviting tho citizens of New
I j ro'ur" to the disgraceful political
methods which every decent man hoped

Ills Criticisms r Our Tariff Laws and the
launch ofa Seth aVow Boom the Incidents
or Last Etenlns'a Bans.net to the Mexican,
Central and South American Delegation.
Tho dinner given at tho Hotol Wnldorf last
evonlng to tho visiting merchants from Mexico
and Central and South America was a, brilliant
nffalr and did not look In enlivening Incident.
At ono tlmo It looked as If a political con ontlon
woro In session for tho nomination of Mr. Seth
Low as first Mayor of tho Greater New York,
and this was followed shortly afterward by a
discourse on tho tariff by SeQor Romero. Minis
ter from Mexico, that brought forth soma np
plauso and consldorabla faintly veiled disap
proval, Tho big banquot room of tho Waldorf was com
pletely filled with tho dinner guests. At raised
tables around 'threo sides of tho room sat tho
southern visitors and tho members of tho vari
ous committees having charge ot them during
their stay. Tbo walls of tho room woro draped
with the 8tars and Strlpos, Interspersed with
the flags of the countries represented by tho
visitors. Mayor Strong presided.
Oscar S. Straus, the first speakor, sot tho fun
going by referring to Mr.Lon as tho first Mayor
of Greater New York. He did not namo htm,
but bis llstonors understood him to moan Mr.
Low, for thoy shouted until a Strong demonstra
tion was dovolopod, and Mr. Low snitlod broad
ly, rose, and bowed. Later ho referred to tho In
cident when ho mado his speocb. Mr. Straus
said:
"Mr. Mayor (this to Mayor Strong), I am
awaro that this stylo of address Is Indefinite, for
there are five Mayors hero to-night. Wo havo
tho Mayor ot Brooklyn, tho Mayor ot lessor
New York (cheers for Strong), and (looking
straight at Mr. Low, who sat a few chairs away)
I am pretty suro when I say we havo tho pros
pective Mayor of Greater New York."
This sally was greeted with wild whoops, that
continued until some ono cried; "Throo cheers
for Low I"
Tho diners stood on their chairs, waved their
napkins, and yelled llko wild Indians for a full
minute. Mr. Straus stood still and smiled. Mr.
Low at first looked solemn and embarrassed;
then n. Hnv amlln nnnnarefl In tho richt corner nf
his mouth, gradually enlarged until it swept
across his face, making It positively beam.
Finally ho arose and bowed. There wero
calls for a speech, and It seemed as it he was
about to make ono when, in a lull In the storm,
somo ono shouted:
"Three cheers for Mayor Strong, the next
Mayor of Greater Now York I"
The counter demonstration was a bit weak,
but It led Mr. Low to refrain from speaking at
that tlmo and caused Mayor Strong to blush and
smile.
Mr. Straus's toast was "Diplomacy and Com
merce." Ho pleaded for American ships and a
stable diplomatic and consular service.
Senator Elkins was to have responded to "Our
Commercial Relations with Our Sister Repub
lics," but in his absenco Scfior Romero, tho
Mexican Minister, spoke. He touched on sev
eral things which ho considered as obstacles to
the Increase of our commerce with the Latin
American countries. Then ha said:
"There Is another obsiaclo that I wish to
speak of. At tho lost election the American
Scoplo declared for the policy of protection. I
o not wish to criticise that choice. The Amer
ican people have a right to fashion whatever
tariff pleases them best, and tbe foreigner has
no right to find fault. But protection carried to
the oxtremo necessarily curtails business, and It
defeats the end for which It was created and
lessens tho volume ot foreign trade.
" Consider the wool that Argentina sends to
yon. If you has that out hy,a protective ntjr
,yott cannot expect that country to make an
effort to buy jour goods. Look at another
effect: We produce In Mexico silver lead ore.
The mines were developed and controlled
by American capital and men. and they
shipped the raw product Into this country
free of duty. Then somo mon developed
similar mines In this country, and going to
Washington secured a prohibitive tariff on tho
raw material that came from Mexico, although
their own mines wero far from able to supply
this country's demand. What was the result t
Tbe owners of the Mexican mlnos erected mills
in Mexico and began to ship pig lead, a manu
factured 'product. Into this country, and this
country lost that manufacturing industry.
" The best way to Increase your foreign trade
Is not to obstruct Importations by building walls
around tho country, for you may bo certain that
every dollar you pay to South America for Im
portations will bo spent in this country for
American manufactured products."
This speech was not received with marked
favor, but wben Seth Low uroso to make tho
next speech on "Commerco and Hlghor Educa
tion," there was another demonstration almost
equal to that which greeted the reference to him
earlier In tbo evening. Mr. Low told n story
about Joseph Smith, tho first Mormon, who
fell asleep once on his way homo from town and
when ho woke up tho next morning found that
tho oxen had been taken from his cart- There
upon ho romarkod:
" If I bo Jo Smith, I've lost a yoke of oxen. If
I beant Jo Smith, I've found a cart."
"When I think ot myself last night standing
before the students of Columbia University,
continued Mr. Low, " I am not surp I am mysolt
now, but when I think of my former commercial
life, I feel that I am. Brothor Straus spoko of
mn a whllo ago a llttlo Inconsiderately, bnt from
what followed that remark I feel quite sure of
my Identity,"
Nobody seemed to know what Mr. Low meant,
but thoy all cheered. The other spcakors wero
Arthur R. V. Hi tellings of Rio Janeiro. W. It.
Grace, Mauro Fernandez, and Charles A.
Schleren.

"England," he said, "receives all our wool.
We have enough of It to supply this country,

London, Juno 10. The Sun's correspondent fl
in this city has received private advice from M
Constantinople which onablo him to confirm, U
without reservation, tho news cabled to Tna M
Bun of England's declaration regarding tha M
retrocession to Turkoy of tho Grecian province M
of Thossaly. Hamm!
Tho announcement that England would not IH
consent to Thessaly's being again placed under Jt
Turkish rule was mads by Sir Philip Currie, tho M
British Ambassador, to Towflk Pasha, the MIn- M
later of Forotgn Affairs, In tho presence of M. M
Nelldoff, tho Russian Ambassador, on Mar 83. M
This was tho first Intimation that cither TcwfllC
Pasha or M. Nelldoff had of England's Jo-
dslon, and both wero astounded. The British jH
Ambassador doclarod the policy of his Govern-
roent In terms that woro tho equivalent of aa
ultimatum. jt
Towflk Pasha listened In silence, and then, H
displaying strong emotion, ho turned and left M
tho room without uttering a word. M. Nelldoff H
soon followed him. H
Tho original plans of tbo Sultan .nd the Czar B
were abandoned, apparently, from that moment, H
unless, as Is moro than possible Turkey's exten- M
slve war preparations, which have boon mora H
active than over slnco tbo armistice was ar- H
ranged, havo tbo gravest posslblo significance. M
Tbo bellof still prevails in high diplomatla H
quarters that Turkoy is secretly determined to H
bold Thessaly, but Great Britain has declared in V H
set terms that sho will withdraw from the con- I H
cert of tho powers unless tho Sultan is compelled jH
to surrender tho province to the Greeks. IH
