UNION HILLS DEADLOCK.
The Councilmen to he Asked to Resigl
in a Body.

SOulCAAALCA W AC <hSaCo - GNcSIkD
in a Body.
The Democratic section of the Union
Hill Board of Council - Messrs. Rub,
Henry and Schlemm-met at the town
hall yesterday afternoon at three o'clock,
and waited an hour and ten minutes for
the other members to materialize. AS
their colleagues did not appear, they adj
journed for want of a quorum.
1t was stated that, when the Board was
called to order yesterday, Councilman
Ross was within fifty feet of the hall.
The failure of the Board to organize
put the citizens in anything but good
humor at the mass meeting held in the
evening in Fuss Hall. The committee of
fifteen, appointed to induce the trsiant
Councilmen to meet and organize, made
a report and was discharged. Then the
chair tried to get somebody. to serve on a
committee to engage a hall in a more CEN
trail location of the town, and to take
charge of the expense to be incurred. But
not a,single citizen could be induced to
permit his name to be used.
Councilman Reeh once more stated his
position, and said:-'If you can only per-
suade the other Councilmen to stay at the
meetings and not run away l am ready
and willing to meet at any hour you may
name, night or day." Then Mr.. Bell, a
prominent republican of the town, came
in for a cro~ss-exainination by Mr.. Rub.
Mr.. Bell frankly confessed that he
thought the interests OF the town would
be best served by Mr.. Ruh's colleagues
deserving his standard aud voting for Mr..
Merritt, and even intimated that it was
their duty to do so. Mr.. Rub, and in
fact a great many others, failed to agree
with Mr.. Bell. But then they were DEM
ocratS.
MI. Henry declared that the trouble in
the Board could be easily settled and a
democrat elected chairman, provided he
would give a certain Councilman the CON
troll of the Police Committee, thus enabling
him to get even with certain members of
the force who opposed him at the spring
election.
DR.. Am Ende also spoke. A motion
was adopted to appoint q committee of
three TO wait on the Council tomorrow
morning and ask the Councilmen to re-
sign. Messrs. Bell, Flan and Lutz We're
named as the committee, If the Board
will not resign another mass meeting
will be called, probably In Ruth's Hall,
and a public request made on them to
at once.
