today that his .figures will indicate
Hearst's election by nearly. .100,000.
Leader Murphy of Tammany is not mak
ing any statements. .While he believes
Gaynor will be elected, mayor,-he is
uncertain abowt the rest of his ticket
One Tammany leader predicts that the
Tammany candidates for the board of
estimate will be defeated. He aald:
"Gaynor will bar elected. . We . will
carry the boroughs of Manhattan, the
Bronx and Queena. but we will , lose
Brooklyn and Richmond. . This will give
