warm. At regular intervals William
Pitt Murray would announce his readi-
neeS to withdraw the name of Mayor
Smith i'll favor of any other maii. AS
often he was told that Mayor Smith
must go on that committee. The better
sense OF the meeting prevailed finally
and the three mayors were appointed
the committee on organization. Still
water. st. Paul and Minneapolis are so
close together that the mayors can meet
to better advantage and doubtless do
better work than could larger commit
tee.
The next point was to decide in
which the association would establish
its domicile. William Pitt Murray
moved that it be in st. Paul, and made
a speech for it. He thought that there
should not be headquarters in two
places. The state central committee
has its office in ST, Paul, and the North
Star association should get as close to
the throne as possible. Charles Ring
wald, st. Paul man, much 10 the sur
prise of his fellow townsmen, moved to
amend Murray's motion by making
Minneapolis the Headquarters.
Dan Abere made speech in the in
terest OF st. Paul, advancing the same
reasons that Murray did, and urging
further that putting the distance of ten
miles between the state central commit
tee and the North Star association
would strengthen the belief already
existing with some that there is a split
in the Democratic party of Minnesota.
He knew there was no split. but the Re-
publicans would say so if the two or
CARNATIONS were not domiciled to-
gether. Matt Gallagher urged the claims
of Minneapolis. So did Joe Jepson.
JepSOn threw himself wide open on the
speech for the home of his maturer
days. Re was loaded with statistics to
show that Minneapolis was more of a
Democratic city than st. Paul. since it
has cast more Democratic votes than ST.
Paul for several years. Ringwald de-
Tended the Democracy Of ST. Paul. but
favored Minneapolis. Minneapolis was
chosen. Aberle was the only man
who voted against it.
Treasurer Winston and Secretary
Moody were instructed to find rooms for
the association. The next meeting of
the executive committee was left to the
discretion of the president. 1t will be
held some time in November.

A. E. Clafiin called at the GLOBE

statement in the interestof quieting the

hected last summer:

they are endeavoring to keep this scandal be-
fore the public. Mrs. Clafiin is now trying to
lead another life and to atone for her wrong
doing. She at least deserves some credit for
her effort from press and public.

ABOUT CROSS BILLS.
Judge CAVITY Says in Some Cases
They Nav Be Allowed.

Judge Canty Says in Some Cases
They May Be Allowed.
Judge CAVITY filed an opinion yester-
day afternoon on the point of law raised
in the Curtis divorce case, and which
was considered by the full bench Mon
day. His opinion is lengthy one, oc-
cupying five pages of typewriter man
uscript. The question raised was
whether defendant in filing cross
bill had the right to claim affirmative
relief after the action for divorce had
been commenced 10y the plaintiff. Judge
Canty concludes his opinion in the fol-
lowing language:
1t is my opinion that cross bill should not
be allowed where it would possibly result in
granting two divorces, one 10 each pa rty, on
separate and independent groun DIS. because
in such cases you have tried two separate ac-
lions really having no connection with each
other The cross bill should only be allowed
when it sets up such arguments that the
granting of divorce TO one is inconsistent
with granting divorce 10 the other also i'll
The same action. However. if such improper
counter claim is not a defense to the claim
for alimony or custody of issue, l think, I'M

The Meeting Concluded
with the following speech by Hon.
Thomas Wilson:
something over 1000 years ago one CT
the most eminent men of ancient
Greece said:
He is dangerous man who takes no
interest in politics. and this is true, my
friends. Therefore every man should
inform himself on these subjects. The
present tariff is tax on consumption
aud not Oh property. All writer's on
political economy agree that there
should be an equality of sacrifice, but
have we this equality? No! The poor
man pays tax on every dollar that he
earns and has. because he uses it all in
paying the living expenses OF himself
and family. The rich man, however,
only nses perhaps tenth part of his
income and lays the rest away. This
he does not have TO pay for. There
fore say there is not an equality"

HIT ON THE HEAD
by Robber He Found Under His
Bed.

John Leitch, well-known insurance
agent, who has resided at the Windsor
hotel for several years, was assaulted
in his room, No. So, last night, by an un-
known man. who had concealed him
self there, presumably to rob him. Mr.
Leitch entered the room at II O'Clock,
and after he had disrobed looked under
the bed before retiring.as is his custom.
Under the bed he saw man. who, just
as soon as lie found he was discovered,
jumped out and struck Mr.. Leitch on
the head with Il leather billy" infiict!ng
very painful wound. He then seized
Mr.. Leitch by The throat and choked
him severely, but hearing steps in the
hall, fed and escaped through the
kitchen door. Mr.. Leitch describes his
assailant as a strongly built man
of medium height, with dark
hair. lie could not see his
features, as he wore mask. 1t is sup
posed that he entered the room with Il
pass key and intended TO secure Mr..
Leitch'S watch and diamond. Mr..
Leitch received painful scalp wound
on the top of the head. but it is not re-
garded as serious

An Antidote for Gambling.

Walter H. Brown used to work in Elliott
jewelry store. While there he became a
gambler, and to get money he stole $40
worth of jewelry and pawned it for $50. He
had pleaded not guilty. but Yesterday morn
ing he changed his plea to guilty and Judge
Rea pleaded for mercy for him. II seems
that when he could not get the money to re-
place the goods he had taken, he went to his
employer and confessed everything. That
had weight with Judge CAVITY and the young
man was sentenced to pay fine of $500 or
80 to the county Jail for nine months.

A KIND FAREWELL.
The Local Amateurs Bid Goodby to Dau-
son and Macpherson.

The Local Amateurs Bid Goodby to Dau-
son and Macpherson.
Probably one of the best gatherings of anna
teur athletes, together with the friends and
patrons of amateur sports that has ever been
held in Pittsburg was that of last evening held
at the Hotel Schlosser. 1t was banquet given
as token of esteem to Messrs. E. B. Dauson
and Alexander Macpherson, who are both
leaving Pittsburg to-day. Both gentlemen are
n embers of the Allegheny Athletic Associa-
tion. Mr.. DauSon, in fact, has been the Secre-
tary of that organization since its beginning.
Last evening members of the club and other
admirers OF outdoor sports were present at the
banquet to shake "farewell' hand with
Messrs. Dauson and Macpherson: The repast
been removed, Mr.. Phil Lloyd the Chairman,
in very merited and pointed speech showed
how Pittsburg would be the loser by the de-
parrure of Messrs. DausOn and Macpherson.
He explained how Mr.. Macpherson had been
one of the most prominent cricket PLAYERS and
one OF the most enthusiastic workers in ana
teur sports that Pittsburg had ever possessed.
MIR. Lloyd's remarks were feelingly and well
made.
There were several toast proposed. Notable
was one by the sporting editor uf THE Dis
PATCH to Mr.. P. Preston as one of the pioneers
of lawn tennis in Western Pennsylvania. Mr..
Preston is a member of the Lawn Tennis Com
mittee of the three AS. and is one of the most
enthusiastic admirers of that branch of sport.
He claimed that he knows nothing about it.
and amid cheers it was pointed out that he
was the very man to be on the committee. MIR.
Preston is promising athlete and
an acknowledged humorist. Very. en-
tertaining speeches were made by Messrs.
Ed Brainard, E. W. Patrick the Vice Chair
man; c. o. Wheeler. guest; c. V. Chids, who
is also leaving for Chicago; b. c. Bakewell, Ed
Mcknight and others. kilograms of regret
were read from John Moorehead, President of
the association. and other prominent people,
The banquet was one of the most enthusiastic
ever helu in Pittsburg
