CONE TO BATTLE FOR AND AGAINST THE CHARTER.
The defenders Of the measure were marshalled by
George w. Bliss, Jr., and comprised such lights
as william Laimbeer, John q Davenport the
''preect Of police for elections as he was termed
by "sorehead" to-day; Alderman Vance, who
has important interests in the new charter as
President OF the Board OF Aldermen,
and Alderman Van Setback. Dan Conover
was in the body OF the Chamber,
but what errand he was on or what side he sub
served Is unknown. John J. Blair was also on the
spot, but his presence here is connected with
some other matter. The Custom House men,
supported BY their own personal repre-
sentatives on the committee and in the House,
Messrs. Blackie and Bign were ranged at
the rear OF the room. while nearer the Lieutenant
Governors desk were the Seventy, as senatorial a

ences precedents and copies of old charters that
two or three Senator's desks were required to hold
them He was listened to In absolute silence, al
though he didn't extend that courtesy TO either
Mr.. dwight or Mr. Schultz when they made their
arguments on the other side.
STATEMENT BY DISTRICT ATTORNEY BLISS, JR.
Mr.. BLISS first addressed the committee, briefly
stating the provisions OF the charter. He COM
menced by saying that since che publication OF the
charter they had heard some criticisms but they
came mostly rom some one who doomed himself
personally affected. The proposition to abolish
THE BOARD OF ASSISTANT ALDERMEN
was opposed by those gentlemen, on the ground
that they did not desire to be legislated out OF
Office especially as they had Just been elected.
Another objection comes from some head Of a de-
par tmeut. who finds himself cut down. Other OBJ
