interest in city affairs and in eome quarters is believed to carry the vote of one or more wards in his breeches pocket at tha courthouse yesterday afternoon aired his views as to the approaching election in language quite painful end free In order to draw the gentleman out it was necessary for one of the two or three men present to espouse the cause of Judge Hadden and no sooner waa the name mentioned than off went tha veteran like a Bash ol powder WHAT HI HAD TO BAT tell you gentlemen we are going to snow Hadden under this time sure enough despite the influence ol Front row and tbs $25000 earn paign fund he is said to be able to command In the first place he will not receive the vote of some of the strongest democratic wards in the city and I am sure he will not carry the first ward because be is opposed by me and othor gentlemen who possess influence He has treated the Irish outrageously aince he has been in office and they are all against him Why he actually arranged matters so that the Irish day laborer can no longer get a job of work on the streets It is shamelul the discrimination in favor of the wealthy against ths poor of which he has been guilty to say nothing of the way he has favored one portion of the city to the neglect of who will you run against inquired a by-stauder Porter cr Gon Williamson either can beat him aDd beat him badly Either of these gentlemen would carry the 1st ward by 400 majority and there biany stuffing of ballot-boxes either" The veteran continued in this strain for eome time the boys nagging him in ordor to got him to talk and he evidently told more than he at first intended Prom ths drift ef bis conversation it was gathered that the tcheme of some of the democratic oli i am moat violently opposed Ju gt ladden is to run as their candidate Gen Williamson who is a republican relying on his receiving the solid vote of his party and catching enough disgruntled democrats to defeat Judge Hadden The chances are the
