I'M EXECUTIVE SESSION.
The New Council eaN into Executive SEES
alien and Adjourn.


At o'clock yesterday afternoon Mayor
Patton called an executive session of the new
City Council, and the meeting took place in
the Mayors parlor.
AS to what trnnspirod at this conference 1t
was difficult to discover. MS each Administers
Cor acknowledged himself bound by an iron
clad oath not to divuIge the matters dis
cussed. However,. among those who took the
trouble to investigate the mystery the pre-
yailinE opinion was that an informal exposi-
zion and discussion Of the policy of the new
government SO far ms 1t related to matters re-
luiring instant attention, took place, and each
member put forth his ideas and suggestions.
AS a result Of the executive session 1t Is
probable that no selections of officials will be
made ut the meeting of the Council to-day,
and consequently those aspirants seeking IN
election at the hands of the Council will have
another weeks time in which to press their
claims and marshal their forces.
FOR THE CITY sURvEYoRsHIP
there are three prominent candidates: j. A.
d'Hemecourt, the present occupant of the
Office FL, @. Brown and Semmes Scott. The
exact amount OF strength possessed by each
Of these will not likely be discovered until
the ballots have been cast; not even the can
didates themselves feel sure of their safety.
WHEN ADMINISTRATOR MEAL1IE
was interrogated by the DEMOCRAT reporter
as to whether any change would be made in
existing police arrangements at tho meeting
of the Council to-day. he replied:
Wen, hear that mentioned on the streets,
but SO far as | am concerned I know nothing
about any such intention. [ am certain
nothing of the kind will be done tomorrow, y
The general impression of the Adminstra-
tors as expressed when questioned on the
subject, was that to-day's meeting of the
Council would be unusually dull and nothing
but routine business would be transacted
