Great Meeting; nf Representative Men
of All AVulkn of Life Held In
Chamber of Commerce In An
swer to lllnhop Pottcr'n Call.
NEW YORK. Nov. 27. A gathering of
business men resulted from tho call fur
a conference at tho Chamber of Commerce
toduy. Tho features of tho meeting woro
tho practical retirement of Bishop Potter
from the front rank of the movement; nn
address by Abrnm S. Hewitt, lu which he
said that tho responsibility for tho pres
ent condition of a Hn Irs In New York City
rested upon tho mayor, and favored tho
unanimous adoption of tho following resolution:
Resolved. That a committee of fifteen bo
appointed for tho purpose ot attempting to
uring to account uiosu respousioio xur iuu
present condition of affairs.
Bishop Potter In ft lotter explanlng his
absence from tho meeting, wrolo ns follows:
I shall not bo able, owing to 11 trustee
meeting, to attend tho meeting nt tho
Chamber of Comnicrco today, nor I think
I ought to udd, should I do" so it I wero free.
"Tho aim of such a meeting should bo.
primarily, to unify tho forces on tho sldo
of law, decency, nnd tho protection of tho
wenk, In this community. But In such au
effort an ecclesiastic Is not tho Instrument.
Ills particular affiliations mako him dis
tinctly not a persoua grata to priests nnd
ministers (aud sonictlmes people) of other
communions, with whom tho odium, tho
ologlcum Is still a very nctlvo sentiment.
Tho clergy may fitly cxcrclso tho pro
photic offico of rousing, warning entreating,
but lu soclul and political movements their
best servlco will bo lu tho ranks, where, as
lu times of stress and Blcge, they may
patrol, mount guard, keep watch, but leavo
to others thu task ot generalship.
"Ab to this, In tho present emergency, I
am quite cledr. Now York wants a strong
committee of threo ot flvo trusted laymen
to co-oporato und co-ordlnato forces, senti
ment, purpose, nnd then, If wo cnn maintain
tho present awakened senso of danger, tho
rest will almost accomplish Itself."
Charles Stewart Smith presided ovor tho
moetlng and In his opening address said:
"It is humllltatlng, but It Is true and np-
pnrent that, In the polico forco certain mora.
,brrs of ltttro In collusion with the dent ot
vlco and' with tho crlmlnalr. of this rlty.
It U also clear thnt the proprlctem of
thoso dens of crlmo pay monthly Bums to
tho polico forco for protection."
Hewitt Telln of Ilotteiinenn.
Abram S. Hewitt, in tho course, of nn
address, frequently Interrupted by applause,
said: t
"Bishop Potter was called upon to ad
dress tho mayor In terms unparalleled In
this city. Tho bishop's clarion call mot
with rrndy responses. When tho head of
Tnmmany spoke it was tho first confes
sion frcm tho governing power of the city
thnt anything was wrong.
"Two years ago reform wns sent to h 1
by a leading citizen of this city and there
It seems to havo remained ever slnco. If It
bo recalled now, It Is becauso Tammany
Hall thinks it lias suffered purgatorial
punishment long enough.
"Tweed, when complaints wero mndo,
naked: 'What aro you g6lug to do about
It?' ThW was a lesson to Tammany.
"Tho limit of public abuso hns been
reached. Somo of tho men on tho Tam
many committee nro entitled to our sym
pathy, but moio to our commiseration. If
they do their duty they strike a fatal blew
nt Tnmmnny, nnd If they do not thoy loso
their ntnndlng In tho community.
"If thero had been any sincerity on Mr.
Crokor's port the commltteu would novcr
havo been appointed,
"Tho responsibility for tho conditions horo
today belongs primarily to tho polico. in
tho Inst analysis If things go wrong tho
reHponolbllty rests with tho mayor."
Mr. Howltt told how ho troatcd lmmor-
allty when ho wnH mayor.
I sent for Chief of Polico Murray," ho
said, "and told him that If ho could not
close up evil resortB at least to cover them
up.
"I told him tho places must bo closed. I
nsked Chief Murray If ho wero a rich man.
Ho said that ho was worth $300,000 and
novcr hnd any business but thnt of police-'
man.
I asked him whero he got It. Ho said
ho hnd friends lu Wall street who gave
him opportunities.
"I had tho president of tno police board
call on mo and asked him about tho corrup
tion. Ho told mo to let It alone I d only
stir up a hornet's nest nnd blast my po
litical future
'He told mo tho truth about that.
'Whllo I was mayor, for two years, New
York was a respectable city, externally nt
least. I had no power but the sontlmcnt
of tho pooplo behind me."
Owned hy Tammiiii' Tyrant.
Rov. Dr. Paddock, representing Bishop
Potter, said:
"I know of men nnd women on the cast
Bldo who havo gono to tho polico with their
complnlnts only to bo told to got out of
tho district If they did not hko condi
tions there, I know of men and women
who havo been driven from their homes
and buslnesii by thoso sclf-samo conditions.
Thoy havo been threatened with persecu
tion If they should dare to come to tho
procathedral and submit tholr complaints.
I can produco 100 or 1,000 witnesses, If their
names bo kept from the public until It In
certain beyond doubt that tho Tammany
leador hns beon crushed, for thoy fear
him as a tyrant."
Prof, Follx Adlcr said:
"I havo no doubt as to tho sincerity of
Tammnny's purification commltteo, Croker
said: 'f, too, urn a father' nnd I havo no
doubt that oven they sen tho evil hns
gono farther than they intondod and they
aro willing to cut off tho fringes of tho
evil. I hope that out of this will .come a
movement not primarily political, not for
the removal nf Tammany Hall, but for tho
tradlcatlon of tho evil. Lot that bo tho
chief object whatover may bo the conse
quence." St. Clnlr McKolway told of the. good that
rosultcd from tho Blnglo-honded police cora
mlcilon whllo that system was tn opera
tion In Brooklyn.
The moetlng was tbeu adjourned to re-
J
