Flaherty, Boulton, Hartzhoim and To-kaji Define Hearst Issues. Cheering loudly every mention of their mayoralty candidate, several hundred workmen last night attended the Municipal Ownership rally at Third avenue and Fortieth street. The principal speakers were Michael J. Flaherty. Alfred J.

Houlton, Charles T. Hartzheim. Robert Robertson and Bela To-kajl. They explained tho principles of municipal ownership and told what Hearst would do for New York if elected. The real issue, they said, was not one of what political party should control the city's affairs, but the substitution of sound business methods in the government in place of boss rule.

Hearst, the speakers all said, was tho one man above all others who could accomplish this. ARMY OF THE UNCHURCHED. Brooklyn Democratic Club Would Raise City's Debt Limit and Have More Judges. All Dealers and Restaurants sell Evans' Ale and STOKES, COLER, POWELL, HOT ATTACK ON W. R.

The voters of the city, he thought, ought to repudiate a man it there were nothing else against him. Coler Refers to the Eagle Interview.

Then Mr. Coler went into the matter of the Eagle interview and showed that every statement in It about the Interests back of the mayor's concealment of the water Issue was true, and ho laid particular emphasis on the statement that in the next four years with all the power of the city government in Tammany's hands, there was no telling what steals, worse even than Ramapo, might not be fastened upon the city. He did not have imagination vivid enough, he said, to paint the political depravity of men who would try to get rich out Imperiling the water supply of a city. Mr. Coler dipped Into Civil Service Commission matters and told how he came to get out of the commission.

He said he found the lists wore being worked for favorites, and he and his colleagues prepared a rule that would do away with favoritism. They had sent this rule, he said, to the mayor, and he had done nothing with it, till nt last the speaker, getting tired at the dilatory policy of the mayor, resigned In disgust. Before he resigned, he said, he had told the mayor he was as good a Democrat as he, but that he could not stand for the favoritism that rau rampant iu spite of the civil service lists. Mayor McClellan will not deny this. Insisted Mr.

Color, for he de.ro not, the records bearing him cut, he insisted, in everything he said. The mayor should be retired to private life, he said, because he had not been on the level with the voters, and became his professions had not come up to his promises. As to tho development of Brooklyn, Mr. Coler said that he would not yield to any of the ticket of Tammany Hall in knowledge of it. He said the needs of the city called for a subway from the pJaza through the Brownsville section.

Dr. Anzeiger's speeoh was interrupted by the entrance of Mr. Hearst, ho was cheered for several minutes, every one on the platform thinking he had come for a handshaking bee, for they grasped him by the hand and prevented him from getting under way with his talk for some minutes. Flowers were thrown at him by the boyish chairmen and one enthusiastic youth tried to pin a bunca of flowers on his coat. Mr.

Hearst spoke without any notes. After thanking the meeting for its hearty greeting he enthusiasm is better than oratory in a campaign. Then he delivered the speech which he made at the Rink, though It was curtailed considerable. Old Montauk Theatre and Prospect Hall. LOUNGERS MUST "MOVE MASS MEETING Jules A.

Guedon, in high dudgeon, walked out of tho meeting of the Brooklyn Democratic Club, last evening, over a matter of tweedle-dum or tweedle-dee that was decided against him by vote. Mr. Guedon wanted to have the meeting considered an adjourned event, while it was the sense of tbe meeting itself, recorded by vote, made necessary by the lively row that Guedon raised that the meeting was of a special character to hear the reports of committees on amendments to the state constitution, an that appointed to draw up an address to voters. When Mr. Guedon's contention was overruled by the vote of the club he arose from his sent, shaking with excitement, and declared that he would hand In his resignation as a member of the club.

Grover Cleveland, ex-President of the United States, has sent a letter to George B. McClellan, Democratic candidate for Mayor of New York, indorsing him, and expressing regret over exhibitions of public hysteria. The letter is as follows: "Princeton, October 25, 1905. "My dear Mayor McClellan: Not being a resident of New York City, I am not sure that 1 ought to concern myself with its municipal politics. I find it impossible, however, to outgrow my interest in all that affects the welfare and fair fame of the city of my former residence, or to forget the kindness aud consideration of my former neighbors.

"If this were not my condition of mind, I hardly think my personal friendship for you or my attachment to the party you represent, or even my absolute confidence In your fidelity In public place, would move me to nmke any expression touching the pending municipal canvass. "I confess to a feeling of astonishment when I see the evidences of rank hysteria pervading a canvass which should especially be characterized by sober tboughtfuluess. Questions of the most far-reaching import seem to be pressed upon the city's voters, not 60 much as subjects demanding their serious reflection and thorough information, Miles O'Beilly Issues Edict That Means "23" to Corner Loafers and InBultera of Women. To the Editor of the Brooklyn Eagle: It is pleasing to note the great awakening among the pastors of the different denominations in. our city.

They say in their call that they are appalled at the facts concerning the increasing unchurched masses in Brooklyn, recently furnished by the advisory board of the Young Men's Christian Association. Now, if their report be true, and no one will question it, may we not expeat a careful investigation from this committee as to the cause of such a condition, and why wo, as followers of Christ, permit them to exist. Here are a few facts for this committee to ponder over that may help thera to solve the problem now under discussion: It Is my privilege to preach the gospel and sing in the Kings County Penitentiary. On one Sunday these prisoners sung so remarkably well that the thought came to me. 1 wonder bow many of them were Sunday school boys In their youth.

"It Is bad enough to be forced to vote for Ridgway, who defended McKane, whom the vice-chairman of this club prosecuted, but It is horrible when free speech is stopped by nn organization pledged to free speech, There were two posts, Nos. 7 nnd 8, In the Ralph avenue precinct where the officers detailed to cover them have been instructed by their commander to patrol together. This is a rather unusual proceeding, but resorted to when occasion requires, as a few months ago, when an officer on the Bowery, Manhattan, was threatened by a gang. Captain Miles O'Reilly has doubled his men on these particular posts, as the result ot an incident which occurred early last month and which had an echo In the trial room of local headquarters Tuesday. A gang of corner loungers who hane assembled at shouted the withdrawing member, as he made bis way toward his hat and overcoat.

It is such a campaign as Tllclcn made against Tweed, and the tnan-Americans were in the forefront of that battle, led by Oswald Ottendorfer. "There has been raised agaiust us the same cry that was raised against Tilden, and be said in reply: 'Assiduous reports are making to terrify the public mind with apprehensions of social disorder, to represent you as disorganizing and to stigmatize you as "destructives." 'We seek not to destroy, but to preserve in their purity the institutions of our country. "'Where the avaricious few have so controlled legislation as to concentrate and perpetuate property in themselves, it is natural that they should regard the plundered masses as hostile to such "rights of property" and such a "social order." 'It is natural that they should distrust ta.ll whose sense of justice is not subdued by a participation in the spoil, and that they should tremble for their Iniquitous possessions and the system which upholds them. But where society is constituted on just such principles such apprehensions ro and aboLrd.

'Tho real danger to which our institutions are exposed is In the abandonment of the principles on which they were Opposed to Confiscation. "And I want to say to you that there is no plan of confiscation in our Municipal Ownership programme; that, in fact, we are opposed to confiscation than either of the other parties, for wo are not only opposed to public confiscation of private property, but to private confiscation of public property. "We propose to retain your public properties and develop them for the benefit of whole people, and not for tha private advantage of public plunderers. I have made a pledge to give you an excellent and adequate water supply for all the boroughs. I have made a pledge to give you an adequate supply of good gas for all the people, at half the price that you are paying now.

I pledge you an honest, efficient administration, and that means that no business man shall be blackmailed nor workingman sweated to make grafters rich. And I promise to save from those grafters enough money to build all the needed public schools and to pay honest wages to the hard-working men in the departments. I want you to help me keep these promises by electing a straight ticket that will work harmoniously throughout for your benefit. A Kind Word for Shearn. "You all know Mr.

Remove this greatest stumbling block in the progress of the Christian church and she will blossom and bring forth an abundanco of fruit, to tbe honor and glory of God. Our great denominations have repeatedly expressed themselves.

It was known that Mr. Guedon had the resolution and, to suppress It, the point was taken that the meeting was special to hoar the reports of the committees above mentioned. Mr. Guedon's resolution was as follows: "Resolved, That the nomination of James W. Ridgway for borough president by the organization Democrats ot this county is a colossal political blunder and a revelation of incompetency in leadership most appalling, a menace to good government and an Insult to decent citizens of all parties.

We call upon all good Democrats to resent this insult to our party and our city and to publicly repudiate his candidacy." After this Incident had closed, N. B. Kilmer, for the committee, read the report of the committee on constitutional amendments, which was declared by several members to be the best report ever received from a committee appointed by the organization. The report of the committee was on the seven proposed amendments to the state At 7:30 o'clock the crowd began to gather at Capitol Hall, in Manhattan avenue, and by the time the Municipal Ownership League meeting was called to order last night by Julius Simon standing room was at a premium. There were at least 600 persons present and it was with difficulty that tho police could keep the stairway and entrances passable.

Mr. Simons offered the usual argument of the Municipal Ownership League quite intelligently and without any appearance of deep feeling. He said that the principal object of the league was to secure the defeat of Tammany and its allies, the Republican party in the City of New York. The nominees were pledged to secure gas at a reasonable price, a water supply that would be enough for the people of the crowded districts and school accommodations for 50,000 children who were now without any and 70,000 who were on half time. He praised the candidates for Mayor, Controller and Borough President, who, he said, were the champions of the laboring class.

He urged the claims of the Republican candidates for Alderman and Assemblyman in the district and denounced Harry H. Dale, who, he said, was the candidate of the gas trust, for whom he had voted at Albany last year. Charles Springer, his opponent, was a car conductor, who worked every day.
