The "INDEPENDENr" MEETING LAST
EvESrSc.-The meeting called at LIE Clair
Hall last evening, was IN exceedingly fiat
md dull s6air. There ware . very few
Democrats present, attracted by curiosity
to see what the Independents were doing.
The whole Republican convention seemed
to have adjourned in body from the court
house to lie Claire Hall. Old Republican
wirepullers were the managers, and Young
Republican orators the spouters. Indeed,
we could hardly realize that we were not
in the Republican meeting at the court
house. When the hour Of organization ar
rived, Dr. Barrows. (need we say the DR.. is
very Black Republican y moved that
Theadors D. Eagal. Esq, be Chairman Of
the meeting Mr.. Eagal firmly, but respect
fully declined. The meeting insisted, and
after much importuning. Mr. Eagal consent
ed to put the motions that might be made
He however. disclaimed any sympathy
with the meeting. After Mr.. Eagal had
taken the chair, DR.. John J. Burtis, IRE
publican) and George L. Davenport, (who
is nominally Democrat, but in reality
no-party many were chosen Vice Presidents.
Mr.. James W. Cannon (who is Democrat,
and will support the Democratic candidate
for Mayor was then "wrung, in" as Secre
tary. Mr.. Ebenezar Cook was then nomi-
mated as Mayor, and DIR. Burtis, Dr. Bar
rows and somebody else, were appointed
committee ta wait on Mr.. Cook, and inform
him Of his nomination. Mr.. Esgal was ad-
ded to that committee, but declined to act.
A committee office was expressive of the
sense Of the meeting. While the committee
was absent, John F. Dillon, Black Repub
lican. J. b. Leake. Black Republican. and
Add H. Sanders, Black Repu blican.
then addressed the meeting, Geo. NJ.
Van Hosen, Democrat, declined speaking
when called upon, because he was determin.
ed to support the Democratic canidate in
to Mr.. Cook, whoever he might
be. Mr.. Price. Republican, then returned
with resolutions which he read. Mr.. Price,
Republican, then made speech. After
the resolutions were passed, the meeting
adjourned. This ended the great Black Re
publican nicknamed the Independent"
meeting. As may be inferred from what we
have said. the whole affair was fizzle."
