Chairman PlrE"l>, when opening the
meeting, begged the Indulgence Of the
audience for few minutes, while he
made n statement which he THOUGHT
ought to be made in juSrcc to himself
| He said that he hid attended The first
meeting, which was held on June 1th,
merely as a spectator. While he was
sitting IN the back OF the room he was
tuomiaared for chairman, and, as no oh
! lectlUnS were made. he accepted the no.
Sition He presided ut the meeting, and
conducted it according to strict parlia-
mentary rules.
| He called rhe second meeting to order
and, a> the first business in order he
called for the report OF the committee
appointed at the previous meeting to
nominate II Citv Executive Committee
| for TIE year. When the First ward re-
| ported, gentleman from the Seventh
ward offered an amendment. He sug-
gested that it would he better plan to
read the reports first and then take W
! each ward separately. He gave way,
| however, because objections were made.
A vote was then, taken upon the amend
ment and, without giving him an op-
| port>rnity to decide, Il show of
hands was called for. He
Immediately called upon those in favor
of the amendment IT, hold up their
hands. They did 50, and he counted
and announced rhe number. He was
prevented from putting the negative Of
| the question to the meeting hecauSe Of
! the howl that was set ny. Persons in
! the centre OF the room called fer d di-
vision. So much noise was then made
that 1T was utterly impossible for per-
sons beyond the middle of the room to
understand how to vote. a Gordon was
then formed and people were not al
lowed to vote as they pleased. A mo
tion to adjonrn was made and seconded.
| The motion was stated twice and was
carried by large majority. When he
declared the meeting adjourned no one
disputed the decision.
! He denied the charge of having set
up u City EXeCut!ve Committee. He
said he had nothing whatever to do
with it, and thai he did not know who
were placed upon il from single ward
hot even from his own ward lie did
not ask, nor did he care. He was will
ing to leave the entire matter i'll the
hands of any good Republicans.
