iff Never In tho history of Tammany has It con
jr ductod a campaign bo lacking In spirit and en
B f. thustasm. It Is true that meetings aro held all
EM oTer tho city every night. About 100 hate been
' jl held thus far, and more than 350 speeches havo
been mado by Tammany spellbinders. The or
& '"J Ionization Is working haid. but It Is not reach
Xnl) Ing the rank and flic. Many of tho meotlngs, In
ftfl fact, nro poorly attonded, although tho bosses
flfr order the boys to como out. The boys come, but
W f they will not bo enthusiastic.
ffi ft Nothing has bocn provldod to make them en-
'iE U tbustastlc. Unilcr tho limitations of Mr.
ffi Oroker's onlers Tammany's orators are not per-
X mlttcd to talk Democratic principles from tho
JB itump. They may only rend tho air w Ith shouts
je about lax rates and fundod dobts. and dovoto a
'2 proper amount of tlmo to talk about torn-up
snroets niul tho Haines law. Tammany's rank
P and fllo havo had theso things dlngod Into their
ft. are for so many months that thoy nro heartily
it tick of thou. Thoy were satiated with them
fn ' "before the campaign roally commenced. They
vUl aro nauseated with them now. So thoy go to
HHk' tho Georgo meetings to hoar about Drjatilsm
pB and tho Democratic party.
K " V This is tho situation In Tammany Hall. Al
H I tho real enthusiasm of tho campaign is admlttod
tJ by tho Tammany district lenders to centro
rVH about Gen. Tracy and Henry George, who aro
Lt9! the two candidates representing fealty to party
WjF m principles. Tho whoto dependence of tho Tarn-
VOf many men Is tho candidacy of Scth Low, and
Vfll the rotes which ho "111 be ablo to draw from
Bft'l tho regular llcpubllcan candidate. Thcyreallzo
Hi I though that this is a brokoti reed, for many of
I thom havo a1 ready reported to headquarters
,r I that the Low sentiment anions tho ltonubllcan
f I voters Is rapidly waning. Notwithstanding this
1 the district leaders keep a stiff upper lip In
obedience to orders from Mr. Croker and con-
I tlnuo to predict ft Tammany Hall victory, hop-
1 In? that sonio unforsoeu act of l'rotidenco will
n'la lave them from defeat.
pft It is In tho face of this languid Interest which
It tik Ue rn'c nnd n' 's taking and In xpltu of tho
Bvt many known desertions to Henry George that
W flJR ' Croker makes the statemont that Van Wyck
mJVt wl" probably receive mora v otcs than thoso cast
Wg 11 tor all tho other Mayoralty candidates.
ft K Tho situation has strengthened a great many
B Tammany leaders who opposo Mr. Croker's boss-
' 1 Ship in tho opinion that it would havo
I been a good thing if tho boss bad ro
ll 1 malned In England, and in tho bolter that.
L j I -perhaps, after all, the best thing which
T I could happen to Tammany would bo a dcreat
P I this year which would effectually dispose of Mr.
- 1 Croker aa a factor In Wlgwnni politics and re
' f ault in a real reorganization of tho Democracy of
I this city on a Democratic basis. This feeling,
I which is by no means confined to two or three
I leaders. Is not going to conduce to tho success of
. H the Tammany ticket.
H The Van Wyck campaign managers, rocog-
, M nlzlng the groat strength which George Is de-
p. vetoplng, resumed their attacks on tha Jcffcrso-
11 nlan Democracy candidate yesterday. They havo
"C II I aocured the services of two former labor reporters
U' who went through tho George campaign of 18SG,
' l&Ai nd these men are omploycd constantly In turn-
OarH logout material calculated to Injuro Mr. George's
5tKVl chances. They furnlshod yesterday a long list of
-Writ labor organizations which supported George in
ll J) 1886 which they say will not Biipport him this
11 1 year. The reason Is obvious In many cases: the
. organizations havo ceased to exist. Tho men
; -JIlll who composed them, however, arestlll partisans
i 'fjf .Of Henry George.

f Tho Cita vrero all in a flutter yesterday. Of
course, they are always in more or less of a
I flutter, hut yesterday it was more noticeable
r than usual. "Don't torget 8 o'clock at Broadway
1 and Forty-second street," was what they were
I saying to each other.
It appears that the Cits had a show on for the
' i public They had hired a stereopticon man. and
, ha" hno pnt up a big whits sheet at Forty-sec
ond street and Broadway. Tho Cits had called
' on all tho cartoonists for pictures to amuse the
f5fcfi publlo and to show the beauties of Lowism.
In Davenport and Jast and Bush and Powers and
&jtt dozen others had responded. It was to be a
fyjJB .show worth fluttering over, and the Cita began
KggPP .gathering at Forty-second street and Broadway
BJ rpl- Tbey nad their best girls with them.
W 1 kind they twittered abont tho fun it was to be In
1 1 real politics.
I H As the time for the show drow nearer they
f-iKtr 1 o11 turned their eyes up to the sheet on the roof
1"' P cf tho lowest comer building. Uy and by a
1M ' 1 1 -clrclo of light appeared, and they whispered
m "Ab-h-h," and stood on tiptoe. Then camo a
t shadow on the sheet. Tho lamp wasn't ad
) justed Just right, Tho shadow moved up.
( The hearts of tho Cits went pltty-pat. Tho
Hi .thodowmoved up further. Tbo hearts heat hard
Hi er. The shadow a&Gumcd form. Suddenly it
' flashed out:
J "Low government is Bnob government."
rA Vf-j "Good Lordl" gasped ono CIU "M-e-r-c-yl"
WitXfc aqueoled another, and thn othors moaned. Tho
Lw",Jr gffrn changed. A new one appeared. It read:
H izit "A vote for Low is a vote for snob govern-U-JiHK
xnent."
WmffMB t'Owie-e-o-e! Owie-e-e-e-el" squealed two Cits
IPjuPf In unison, and tho others gasped for breath and
'foaF-W? .-tottered.

13U iClta began fading away, leaning on each other's
P X421 -arms.
VI 3m "Io hel1 ,Tlth Reform," said the light. That
ff 1 'S -was the last straw. Tho Cits fled, screaming as
1 jM -they fled, and just as thoy disappeared tho
If ! treopticon man they bad hired came along.

All Blaghamton Has Wanted to Know Slnea
tha Presbyterian Bash anpper.
Binoiiamto.v, N. Y Oct. lO.-On last Fri
day evening tho women of the Imroanucl Pres
byterian Church gave a hash supper to ralso
funds for the purchase of church furniture. All
sorts of schemes for tho raising of money bad
boon devised, but tho corned boef hash suppor
will go down In history as tho most successful
financially, Yot it is safo to assert that tho
entertainment will not bo repcatod, nt least
during tho present generation.
Tho novelty of tho entertainment brought to
tho church a largo portion of tho north Bldo
residents, who, though not partial to hash,
wcro assured by tho commlttco In chargo that
tho arttclo to bo served would bo of n gllt-odged
variety and frco from any mysterious Ingredi
ents. It wns to bo simply corned beef hash-tho
kind that mother usod to nmko.and not of tho res
taurant or boarding house kind. Mrs.W. A.Wat
rous, a oil-known church workor, who hnd fur
nished tho flnost bnkod beans nnd moit pnlatn
bio pumpkin plos for church suppors for ear9.
was put In chargo of tho hash department, and
no ono could doubt that a quality of hash would
bo sencd that would cam countless compli
ments. ... ,
Tbo corned beet was purchased from a down
town butclicr of unlinpeachablo morals nnd of n
mild and genial disposition. Tho hash was
compounded by following tho most npiirotoil
recipes, and tho women who partook of It Iw
foro tho oicning supper pronounced It beyond
reproach, There wcro other good things nt tho
supper, but tho 1U0 or more who paid their
"ft cents each and rat down nt tho feast seemed
to hao a partiality for tho delicious mixture
of corned beef, onions, mid potatoes provided
by Mri. Wutrotis ami her corps of nHslstaiits.
After the tupper there was a reception, and all
was soclablo anil jolly.
'lho llrit Indication of nn) thing wrong camo
when tho ltov. John McLuchlnn entered tho
cook room with a suspicious look upon liio face.
Ho was followed by others, whnuetrd ns If they
had something against -Mrs. Watrous. Others
becamo less souublo and departed for their
homes. Many called cabs and ruiucstril friends
to assist them In getting to their domiciles.
During tho evening hurry calls were Rent for
doctors to alleviate the mifferliigs on all tdde.
huch Hidden nnd general tdckmss was never
known In tho Thirteenth ward, and tho sjnip
toins In all rases wero so similar that the phy
slcluns tamo to the conclusion that thcro was
bonicthlng about the churih Mipper that wns
responsible for It. Dr. Cobb, who prescribed
for twenty or more of tho sufferers, thought that
tho torn beef was bad. Ho examined It and
thought It looked slightly fermented. John II.
Davidson of Linden strtot did not agree with
tho doctor. Tho nlgnt beforo ho ato tho hash
ho hud an attack similar to tho ono that so
many of his nolghbors wero experiencing. Ho
had eaten largely of the hash, and hnd felt no
evil effects. His wlfo nnd daughter, however,
were in bed all tho next dny. He defonds tho
hash by cnturlng tho opinion that It is a north
Bldo epidemic that has caurod all tho groaning.
Among thoso who had to bo taken homo in cubs
was Baggageman John W. Schoonmaker of tho
Erlo station. He woa ahlo to bo out tbo next
day. but tho work of juggling baggngo is still
dono by his assistant. It is his opinion that
thero wero other and easier ways of raising
church funds than by serving hash suppers.
Ihtro wero many others of tho samo opinion.
It is estimated that over a hundred persons
wero affected by tbo hash, and a ward politi
cian gives this as a reason whj tho registry is so
light In tho Thirteenth ward. Tho phjBlclans
say that no serious results have been observed,
lho victims of tno hash supper have been re
luctant to relate their experiences, and tho story
did not bocomo publlo f or sov eral days.

and announced that ho hod yellow fever, and
that his landlord had ordered htm out of tho
houso in consequence An examination showed
that his story was true, and Culotta was sent to
tho Isolation hospital. Tho chances aro against
his recovery.
Whllo attempting to-day to place a yellow
fever flag on tho house of an Italian fruit ven
der on Bourbon street Dr. Mloton. Inspector of
tho Board of Health, was attacked by a mob of
Italians, tho flag torn down, and tho doctor
driven off. A largo force of pollco was neces
sary to restore order. Tho Italians still refuse
to report the yellow fever, and as a consequence
contribute a majority of tho deaths. The
presence of tho disease among tho Italians Is
generally not known until death comes. Igna
clo Durn-.ato, an Italian, was found dead on Du
inalno street to-day. Tho autopsy showed death
to be duo to yellow fever.
Among tho cases of rover reported to-day Is
Dr. C. J. Miller, Secretary of the Orleans Medi

A Spanish Crlllo Itecatls Thlnrs That Are .Tot
Drllllant In ITcjIer's Itrrent Career.
Madrid, Oct. 7. The p ubllc" here had scarcely
recovered from tho Impression caused by tho
publication of Gon. Wejlcr's loiter comparing
tho present condition of affairs In Cuba with tho
situation at the tlmo thatGon. Martinez Campos
hnd command of the island, when SeAor Juan do
Urbinas, an intimate friend of Martinez Cam
pos, came to tho front with a communication to
El Dia, In which, after admitting that tho Mar
shal hod been unable to prevent tho westward
march of the Insurgent invading forces, the
writer says:
"When Gen. Wcyler speaks of the Indelible
track which the insurgent torch blazed on tholr
march from Santiago de Cuba to Pinnr del Hlo
he makes a great mistake, for tbo destruction of
property by flro began nt San Junn ) Mnrtlncr,
In Plnar del Itlo. If there actually exists nn In
delible track of flro It must bo eastward, and
that marked by tho Insurgent path-in that
direction after Martinez Campos had with
drawn from Cubi.
"To say that tho insurgents proceeded unmo
lested from Santiago de Cuba to Pinar del Hlo
is not absolutely exact. Thcro aro tho fights
at Iguaro, La ttcforma, Llmplos do Taguasco.
Collseo, and others which provo tbo contrary;
nnd yet Martinez Campos was never escorted,
as Gen. Weylcr was, by twenty battalions, with
which I beg to Bay that I would venturo to
travel from one end of tho Island to tho other,
in company with my wlfo and babies, w lthuut
fear of their being hurt.
"If, as Wcyler alleges, any proprietors paid

Nuciaua Fiixa. Oct. 10. Tho American

teenth annual meotlng In tho Convention Hall
In this city. Robert McCulloch of St. Louis Is
President.
Tho first paper presented wns on "Municipal
Ownership and Opcrntlon of Street flnllways,"
by P. F. Sullivan of Lowell. Mass. Tho conclu
sions reached by tho author wero that munici
pal administration in American cities was so
xtravagant nnd unbusinesslike that. In tho In
terest of tho public, tlio powers and duties of
municipalities should be reduced rather than
cnlargid. It was pointed out that municipal
ownership nnd opcritlon abroad nro tho excep
tion rather than the rule, and wero tho revcrso
truo and such ownership and operation success
ful from a financial point of v lew. It does not
follow that American cities could or should fol
low such examples, or that If thoy did do so buc
coss would rosult.
"Thoughtful men view with alarm tho growth
of American cities and tho maladministration
of their affairs." said Mr, Sullivan. "Somo go
so far ns to ticlievo thnt both conditions seriously
threaten tho futuro of tho republic. So alarm
ing hnvo these become that patriotic and
thoughtful men, nnd women, too. hnvo organ
ized in nearly every city in tbo country with a
view to arousing public opinion to devising
vva)ts and means to purify local politics, and to
obtnln a fair return for mono) expended."
Toronto wns referred to as the only Instance
in this eountrv of public ownership nnd prlvnto
oporatiou. but thu prediction wan mado that be
fore the contract period expired Toronto would
regret its adoption of ImglUli methods under
American conditions.

Muskogee, I. T.,Oct. 10. Tho Creek Council,
In session at Okmulgee, I. T., yesterday ovonlng
rejected tho treaty recently agreed to by tho
Dawes nnd Creek Commissioners.
Tho voto in tho lower houso of tho Council
was unanimous ngalnst tho trcntr nnd only
eight members of tho Houso of Kings voted In

Tho Councllmcn objected to tho treaty prin
cipally on tho ground that it favored tho non
citizens nnd tho railroad companies, to the detri
ment ot tho Creeks, and did not give c-vchtltl-ren
pro rata of all lands In tho Creek N'ntlon.
An endless amount ot litigation w ill doubtless
bo tbo result of tho Council's rejection of tho
treaty, as the act of Congress w hich takes effect
on Jnn.l, 1808. abolishes the Creek Courts, places
tbo members of tbo tribe under tbo jurisdic

their acts of council of no force until approved
