HILL & BEIBACH Independence League to Name Ticket In Kings County, NTARREN MAY INDORSE HUGHES. — Bitter Fight In New York Political Field Between Broeklyn Semater and Democratic Candidate For Gevernor, NEW YORK, Oct. G—Senator Me Carren acted promptly on the news from Chatham that William R. Hearst would put a full ticket in the field against the regular Democratic nomi- nees fo Kings county, He at once called a special meeting of the Kings county general committee and, it is sald, at the meeting intro- duced a resolution formally Iandorsing the candidacy of Charles E. Hughes. The Independence league will nominate an independent ticket In Kings county te Oppose that named by the Kings coun- ty Democrats under the leadership of State Senator Patrick McCarren, This announcement was made positively by Willlam R., Hearst lu a statement In which Le declared that in placing an Independent ticket In the field in Brooklyn the Independence league be- lieves that it is doing what is belleved to be best for the Interests of the citi. zens of Brooklyn. Mr. Hearst's statement was called forth b a report published to the ef- fect that Semator McCarren bad sent a letter to Mr Hearst protesting against the reported intention of the Independence league to place a third ticket in the field in Brooklyn and threatening Mr, Hearst with a plural- ity of 75,000 against him in Brooklyn if the intention should be carried out. “The question of whether Brooklyn goes 73.000 one way or the other Is for the citizens of Brooklyn to decide and not for Mr. McCarren to decide,” sald Mr. Hearst. “I have the utmost con- sideration for the wishes of the eiti- zens of Brooklyn sand none whatever for the wishes of Mr. McCarren. In placing an independent ticket In the field In Brooklyn we are dolug what we belleve to be for the best Interests of the citizens of Brooklyn. Mr. Mc Carren by calling himself a Democrat does not make himself a Democrat. If be should call himself au honest man it would not make him an bonest man. If be should call his ticket a good ticket it would mot make it a good ticket. As a matter of mctual fact the McCarren ticket Is notoriously unfit and should not command the support of honest Democrats or honest ludepend- ents.” Mr. McCarren, interviewed here, sald he had no reply to make to Mr. Hearst's statement. Asked regarding his communication to Mr. Hearst, he sald: “I have sent no letter to Mr, Hearst, t I did send a messenger to him with lastructions to inform him of the probable result in Kings county If he should oppose the Democratic Judl- clary ticket in the Second judicial dis. trict. I befleve I did suggest that the sounty would give Hughes about 705,- 000 majority ia the event of his belting the Democratic ticket. I did not tell Bim to use the words, ‘You do this at Jour peril’ I made no threats, but merely stated a few facts which I thought might interest Mr. Hearst” Mr. McCarren added: “As to the probability of the general committee voting to leave Hearst's Dame off the head of the ticket, the committee will have to decide that” The senator was asked: “Will the committee have precedents for leaving off the mame of the head of the state ticket?’ He replied: “My answer to that ls that there is no precedent for the head of the ticket bolting the party.” Senator McCarren intimated that he had not expected such a deflant decla- ration from Mr. Hearst and added that he was not greatly surprised, however.
