Auff. F. Murphy, the leader of Tammany Hall, today said he not observed any sentiment in Tammany for the nomlna- tion of District Attorney William Travers Jerome for governor by the Democratic state committee, but he said there was plenty of sentiment for W.

R. Hearst. Mr. Murphy dclared that he was not committed to any candidate but it was the rule of Tammany to bo guided by the sentiment of the organ- Izntion, and he would be guided by it at the state convention. Mr.

Murphy the Tammany delegation to the convention would be bound by the unit rule. Di-slrlct Attorney Jerome tonight gave ine following statement: "It is no surpri.se to me to find that Murphy is practically declaring for Hearst. The only reason for my taking an active part in politics this year Is to carry on the fight of last year, which was to fight to free the people and parties from the domination of Just such political panhandlers. Of a feather flock and when a person Intellectually ster- llOj socially vulgar and morally obtuse Insults the decent people of the state Irrespective of party by seeking the nomination of a political party bj; advancing dollars and not ideas, and by methods akin to those of tho blackmailer, no thinking man could doubt where Murphy could be found. "1 should fear I had lost all my Ideals If I found men of this type supporting me.

except under absolute compulsion. If I ever come to have any Influence in the Democratic party It wtJi be used to drive out of it base bosses of this type. Both the Democratic and Republican parties have long been disgraced and dominated by men of this type, controlling party organization. "Party organization was created originally to render effective the wiK of the people. The servant has become the mister and the executive machinery controlled by small groups of selfish and unusually corrupt men.

has been used to deprive the people of the parties of their political freedom. fight is not to destroy parties. Parties are essential to the proper working of our political institutions. The fight i.s to free the parties from just such men as Murphy: to deprive them of their control of their executive machinery; to restore to it the discharge of the functions for which it was created, the effective expression of the will of the people who compose the party. When this is done wa shall have leaders and not bosses, we shall then have conventions of real delegates seeking to determine whom the people want placed in nomination.

We shall have candidates and public officers in whose choice the voice has been potent and who will feel that their responsibility is to the people and not to some political bosi who created William Gibson, of Big Sandy, died last Monday after a brief illness.

The shocks have continued since Thursday night and five slight shocks were felt today. The shipping harbor escaped damage and every vessel Is a haven for refugees.

All buildings have been deserted. Practically nothing has been done in the way of clearing away wreckage or searching for dead bodies and laborers refuse to enter the ruins because of the continued shocks.

Associated Press has received authoritative information confirming the worst reports of the earthquake in Chile. Valparaiso is partially destroyed. Most of the damage done -was In the center of the city extending from the plaza Del Oiden to the Plaza Prat. Many lives lost, but the number is not yet known. Huqdreds of persons were Injured.

A state of panic vails at Valparaiso. Santiago also suffered severely and there was much loss of life. Los Andes, 18 miles east of San Felipe which has a population of 5,000, was almost totally destroyed. The first buildings of the town government house, hotels and public offices were completely wrecked. Other towns on the Chilean aide of the Andes, wholly or partially deacroyed, are Quillota, with a population of Llaya Llaya, with a population of H- lapel, with a population of Vallenar, with a population of 5,000 and San Felipe having 12.000 inhabitants.

Qulllota is a masg of and there was great loss of life there. From Santiago to the Andes every bridge and tunnel on the railway was utterly wrecked and lines torn up. The shock Is supposed to have been caused by the eruption of a volcano near Jenin Los Andes. It Is impossible to estimate the dimensions of the disaster at the present moment, owing to the circuitous route over which the news is received. There, is no doubt, however, that the catastrophe was of terrible proportions.

The disaster has cast gloom over the 1 republic of Argentina, and all festivities have been suspended. All the ordinary means of communication wtlh Chile are closed. There Is great anxiety here. The public Is waiting to ascertain the fate of relatives and friends in Chile and the government office and newspapers are besieged by anxious Inquiries.
