At precisely o'clock Saturday evening, Bro.
NHrrLTR brought down his gavel. No precise rs this
movement, that it comes if by clockwork, and pro-
duces general rush the part of the Brothers for
their seats. On this occasion, Council No. was
gracd with the presence OF its principal leaders, Bros

Van Duser Ambrose w. Barnes, Cornelius Corson.
Alderman Grhiths, the Hon. Edwin A. Ware, and
--- Palmer, formerly shadow-"rght bower and
"spot ball TO Bro. Combs The presence of 80 many
Of this class Indicated expectation their part Of
Heavy work. Bro CoRsoN read the minutes OF the two
preceding meetings, which, not differing essentially
Gom TIE TRIBUNE minutes, were readily approved.
No initiation occurred. The Committee to straighteR
the Nineteenth Ward troubles, reported that storm
had prevented their further progress. Accommodation
from The Express office gave notice of forthcoming
paper from that establishment, designed exclusively
for the Order. A Brother from the eighteenth Ward
on leave stated his Council had settled the rule that
what sauce for the goose was sauce Tor the gan-
der; that il Council No. wanted other Councils TO
have their communications signed and counterslgned
in the sign manual of the President and Secretary, she
should do go herself. That the resolution Of Council
No on this subject had come TO his Council signed
only by the Secretary, and that his Council had or
derod I sent back because Of its mpertnence and
because II asked more than Council No he'd itself
do1e. On motion of Bro palmer, the President
was ordered to countersign the document.
Bro. TrPPrR offered preamble and resolution de-
cariDg, i'll substance, that

bly, expected aud hseds Bro Doan has
been Of 10 uso TO the ORDER therefore

Bro. VAN DUsER moved that the resolution be laid
on the table Lost. Bro. WANRIGHr advocated the
resolution. Hoped the Committee would be appointed.
Bro VAN DrsER opposed it, He thought Bro. Dolan
had done as well as others who had been elected by
this Order and some persons thought he had done bet
ter than they,had right to expect, because be had
kept his mouth shut. Bro. Brooks also opposed the
resolution. He showed great wrath at The TRIgsE
for exposing Bro. Dolan and Bro. Coombs. He said
that those brothers would get mad and would not re-
orm out of mere spite. He was surprised that Bro.
Upper should offer such resolution, as the in-
vestigston would expose Bro. Dolan still more. He
believed that some had made tool OF Bro. Tup
per to get this resolution offered that The TRIBUsE
could get hold of it.
In making this speech Bro. Brooks nsed mixed
| style of elocution composed of WRATH whining,
I and whmperng. In the course Of it, he said that
| the reporter, whoever he might be, kar vii
rascal.
Bro CoRsoS supported the resolution and declared
that Bro Dolan had no right to 90 to Albany and do
nothing for the Order lie said that Bro. DOlan had
| never been the TO show himself in the Council
when ON hi, visits to the city, but that on these visits
he had onducted himself in such manner to war
rant all the comments and exposures complained OF by
Bro Brooks. As Bro. CorsOn resumed his seat red
nosed brother-probably associate OF Bro. Dolan-
declared that Bro. Dolan had not been in the city at
all This was too much for the honesty and simplicity
| of BIO. Palmer. He became suddenly heated, and
with great earnestposs proclaimed that Bro. Doan
had been in the city two or three times, and that on
one occasion be bad passed the deor Of Council No.
j. while the Council was in session, but that be
| net IN ft condition to up the stairs Bro Il.
had ALWAYS heretofore considered Bro. Brooks 70 be
man Of principle and he sstonished to see the
position be took now. He thought it pretty fix
| for q man who preached Temperance-who belonged
to the Temperance Alliance, and who held temperance
meetings the docks every Sunday, to support such
men Bros Combs and Dolan; though temper
snce man himself Bro. Palmer likes TO consistency
the professors and he cannot do go for the
support of such rum mills. Bro. Buckman moved
nGt finite pOstpOnemen OF the subject and that vote
OF thanks be rendered Bro Dolan for his acts in his
1
had TO the official or to the private acts OF Bro Doan.
Bro b. replied with great boldness that skunk holds
his position anywhere. This strong alusion no doubt
deferred the Brothers from pressing the resolution.
On motion of Bro. Van Dusen the subject post
poned indefinitely, never to come up again. Query:
Where does this leave Bro Doan
| Bro. WAHRIGHT arose, and with an sir OF solemn
,erousress stated that he understood that the Ne
porter Of The TRIBUNE was now In the room. lWnew'
isn't nc always there y He moved that the person
who had rst discovered him be ordered 10 point him
out forthwith. Bro. Wheeler opened wider his eyes
rolled up hurriedly his sleeyes-clutched nervousy
hi. gsyel-and stated grayely the motion. A uni
yersal Aye saved the trouble Of count, and served
az an pnmistakable evidence of all pervsdng de-
sire Of the Brothers TO come in closer relations with
their reporter. Bro. Charles L. Pearce the Know
Nothing School Trustee probably in compliance with
the resolution Just adoptedl and IN the mode Of boy
puhed with the consequence Of his story, declared that
the door keeper told him. that old man with cane
Who was now sitting in the Council had said to him,
tie door keeper, that Bro. Aaron Bogert was seen
that afternoon talking TO some men somewhere and
POINTING 70 a smooth faced lad who stood BY pillar
lear tie President said lin loud tones "There he stands
now" The youth referred TO stepped forward, and
though crimson with bushes said that there must be
ZONE mistake somewhere. That though his name
Bogert i not Aaron Bogert. He stammefed out
a wish for Committee Of investigation, 70 see II be
really was the reporter. Alderman Griffith opposed
this. His idea that charges ought 70 be preferred
frsi BIO. Barnes favored the Committee BE knew
who the reporter was and he would expose him If he
