SMITHS ELECTION IS VOID.
By the Clans Law He's Debarred
from Committeeship.

Police Justice Solon b. Smith has demon.
strated his power as a factor in the Republi.
can politics Of the Twentieth Assembly Dis
trict by securing his election as executive
member OF the Republican County Committee
from that district, when he is cleary ineligi-
BILE under the constitution OF that body.
Having been appointed Police Justice by
q Democratic Mayor, Judge Smith can, by
the law OF his clan, hold no office in the Re-
publican organization OF this city. Even
membership Of a district committee is denied
him, and his only privilege as Republican
is TO vote for the candidates OF that party, II
he SO desires
Under the constitution OF the Republican
organization OF this city all votes cast Tor
such a candidate as Judge Smith are null and
void, SO that while lie appears on the face OF
the returnSlto be elected Executive Member
from the Twentieth District, he is, in fact, in
the same position as II no votes had been cast
for him
Judge Smith was set aside by the Republi-
cans because he was thought to be flirting
too boldly with the Tammsny leaders.
Chairman William Brookfield declared to-
day that the constitution would not be
amended to allow OF the reception OF Judge
Smith, and a new primary will probably have
to be held IN the district to elect leader.
Ex-City Marshal Michael GoOde, a friend of
Judge Smith. Is the present leader, and II is
considered probable that he will be returned
now that Smith has demonstrated that he
still runs the machine In the district.

The "ticker" war inaugurated Saturday

Every customer OF the Gold aud Stock Com.

The tickers were working as usual, but the
quotations were from twenty to thirty min

WARRINGTON, Dec. 14.-The authoritative
announcement in THE Would this morning
that Mr.. Springer, Of Illinois, instead Of Mr..
Mills, OF Texas would be made Chairman OF
the House Committee on Ways and Means,
forms the chief topic OF political discussion
here to-day.
The bulk OF opinion sustains the wisdom Of
the selection Of MIR. Springer Tor this impor-
tant post. Fair-minded Mills men acknowl.
edge that 1t is consistent with the policy
which led to the selection Of Mr.. Crisp to the
Speakership.
With Mr.. Mills as Chairman OF the Ways
and Means, u position which involves the
leadership OF the House, there would be the
certainty OF n constant friction OF radical and
conservative ideas. This would seriously en-
danger the harmony OF spirit essential to the
great work OF tarin reform which this House
has to initiate. The leader whom Speaker
Crisp will name In Mr.. Springer will work in
consonance with him and there will be no
clashing OF policies.
Mr.. Mills lost his temper and his discretion
under the pressure OF defeat In the speaker
ship race. His sullen attitude towards the
successful man In that race was among the
things which first raised doubts as TO the

feel that way when they first put on new

the coat across the shoulders and the
trousers were creased as though they had
been on the shelf for ages.
IL Is probable no one would have
noticed this, for such sights are CON-

yelled.

said another.
Still the object of all this chaff hurried
along, seemingly unaware that the CON-
motion on the street was about him. But
at last more sympathizing individual
tapped him on the arm and said

This worried him. and he took of his
coat first and removed the card from his
cont collar, and looking about for further
trouble, found the same little cards upon
his vest IN front and his trousers behind.
At last he got them all OF, and nothing
was left but the creases, but they still
showed that he had Just made his escape

clared he would hold no more examinations
